03.08.2025 22:35 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0cut out the tail, posted to Cara again, it worked. the automod absolutely thought it was a dick. how abysmally stupid, and entirely my fault. this shit is ass. I don't want to draw anymore.
03.08.2025 09:48 โ ๐ 16 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 2 ๐ 0I cut off the tail on the leftmost one and posted it to Cara again and it succeeded. it was the goddamn tail :( :( :(
I love tails, man. this sucks. but it's up
this shit is genuinely bumming me out. I was working on another drawing but I don't have the energy to finish it now. honestly I don't know how NSFW artists deal with this kind of digital prudishness.
03.08.2025 09:33 โ ๐ 30 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 4 ๐ 0I tried posting this to Cara too and it wouldn't let me. I don't really understand, what is it about this image that makes the automods think this is pornographic? is the tail on the leftmost figure reading as a phallus or something?

Hey!
Do you need a highly technical character artist with almost 15 years of individual contributor and leadership experience? Looking for someone to wrangle your shaders? Or perhaps you need a person to assemble your character art pipeline?
That's me!

It's been one year since I was laid off, and my contract with Blizzard ends in two months. I'm still looking for my next role as a senior writer or narrative designer!
I have over 8 years of experience working in AAA games from live service MMOs to single player. You can find my work on my website.
nanite meshes still have a video memory impact. if you have 8 rocks at 2 million polygons each, and that's your whole rock kit, you'll be fine. but if you have a rock kit of 100+ meshes, each at an equally high polycount, you will start to run out of video memory just like you would with textures
03.08.2025 01:39 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0it's possible they were referring to video memory, in that the mega assembly makes a new mesh, as opposed to being in a container like a blueprint or level instance. I don't really see the use for mega-assemblies, and have never used them professionally
03.08.2025 01:37 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 2 ๐ 0I want to specify that the geometry still exists and is not deleted. in particular, the hidden geometry is not rendered. you are not paying for the hidden geometry. this is not how classic static meshes work, where even if most of it is hidden you'd still pay the full cost of rendering the mesh.

I doubt they have the staff around to have a person look at it to make that judgement call, and if they did, they probably have to look through so much that they're going to flub it anyway
