~~Wait a second, that's just two-point perspective again! OP, how could you lie to everyone?~~

I'm a dumb

Where's the third point? I only count 2

[–] [email protected] 6 points 7 months ago

It's at the bottom, slightly outside of the frame. If you continue the vertical lines that would be parallel you intersect there (e.g. the slim building in the front). The same way you can reach the points on either side.

The bottom of the middle sky scraper, and the two vanishing points of the skyline

Okay, you're right. I've failed myself today

[–] [email protected] 6 points 7 months ago (1 children)

We all have our ups and downs. May this be the lowest point you've ever reached.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 7 months ago

I'm neurodivergent. This ain't even my lowest today. But thank you and I agree with the sentiment

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago

Bro I'm struggling with it too. It just looks like long 2 point to me lol

[–] [email protected] 11 points 7 months ago

3 point is as accurate to reality as you can get, as long as you place the third point inhumanly far away. When you focus on the corner of a room, all the other vertical lines of the room warp slightly inwards, creating the perspective. In 2-point, the vertical lines are all straight up and down, its not accurate.

I don't remember the last time I saw a BSOD. Thanks

Is that what they look like now? They used to have cool system font and cryptic error codes and memory addresses 🤣

[–] [email protected] 4 points 7 months ago

Ya, pretty much that. I put in a bad GPU yesterday and saw about 6 frowny faces.

If you use an Insider build, reserved for the most daring of tech-savvy beta testers, you get a different screen.

It's green.

I run an nVidia card so it happens pretty frequently unless I remember to unninstall and disable FrameView SDK after any updates.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 7 months ago (2 children)

Now do 4 point perspective?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Fuck that, give me 16 point perspective.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

Jokes aside this is clearly only 2 point.

Working with orthographic projection on a 3D model makes me nauseous to the point of wanting to vomit

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago (2 children)

Engieneers sometime work in orthographic projection. Stuff of same size have same size on screen

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

We only work on orthographic! Specifically isometric.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

My brain just can't handle it

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

That's... odd. I use it exclusively. Perspective feels so wrong since it distorts angles.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

I have no idea why, but it genuinely feels awful to me, comparable to motion sickness

Bad template
