The mad ramblings of a trans girl (She/They) wishing character creators were in real life.

I'm a Irish game dev, character modeller and character creator enthusiast.

I'm currently working on a Racing Game called Stick Drift!

The wire for my headset broke in the worst place last week and after a lot of prying and trying to pull it out I finally decided to just take the headset apart and force it out from the inside.

Thankfully it's a removable wire and not a built in one so I didn't have to buy a whole new headset.

Been trying to get Anthem to work on my PC for the last few days so I can play it again and try rebuild the character controller once I've finished Stick Drift.

The games supposed to be dead in January but today I get this.

Mind you I own it and is currently fully installed.
The EA Play page for Anthem saying "Not available for purchase. This game is no longer offered in our catalog, but there are tons more games to find. Just head to the browse page and start exploring".

I've been replaying Death Stranding but this time the Directors Cut cause I don't have a PS5 and can't play 2.

Here's some of my favorite screenshots I've taken using the photo mode!
A photo of Sam holding BB up proudly on the left looking down a hill over Port Knot City on the right. Sam is standing on the top of a mossy cliff. The Death Stranding logo is in the top right. Sam diving on a bed on the left away from a BT in his shower on the right. Sam walking while carrying a woman on his back though a rusty rocky environment. Sam carrying a woman on his back nearing they're destination on the right. The woman on Sam's back is facing the camera with a nervous look on her face.

I also changed the cloud shaded so it's fully transparent since I posted those so it should hopefully be less ominous now.

I tiled them by 2.

I'm using UE5 so this is what that part of the shader looks like.

I just set the tiling values in the TexCoord to 2 so it wasn't stretched.

Hope this answers your question.

Spent the day working on a Skybox shader for my game and made some for each of the 3 kinda biomes. Still needs work but I like where it's going.

for the textures I used a software I found on Itch called Space Background Generator by a dev called Deep-Fold

This ones for the city biome.

Here's a picture of me testing the top screen btw. You may notice a crease in the ribbon cable, it came that way as did the other screen from iFixIt which now only turns white.

I got an IFixIt kit and was finally able to take apart my PS2 and clean it so it would stop freezing on boot!!

So now I can play my PS2 again!!!

My I Saw The TV Glow blu-ray came today!!!

I'm really excited to watch it again and then again with the director's commentary!!
The front of the sleeve case of the I Saw the TV Glow blu-ray disc on my desk. It has the title of the film along with its publisher A24 and the director Jane Schoenbrun with a shot from the film of the main character Owen kneeling in front of a TV that's glowing with sparks coming out of it while his head is inside it. The back cover of the sleeve case with the synopsis, a screenshot from the film and the features and details of what's included on the disk. Bellow that is the open case that has a screenshot from the film and the disk. The screen shot is of the 2 main characters Owen and Maddy as Maddy draws a ghost symbol onto the back of Owens neck while she kneels over him and he sits infront of her. These are some photos that were in the case that I think were taken on set during filming. There are 6 photos, one of each of the main characters actors. The top left is of Brigette Lundy-Paine who plays Maddy, the middle top is of Helena Howard who plays Isabel, the top right is of Ian Foreman who plays young Owen, the bottom left is of Albert Birney dressed as Mr. Sprinkly, the middle bottom is of Lindsey Jordan who plays Tara and the bottom right is of Justice Smith who plays Owen. This is the outside cover of the cases, it's a screenshot from the film of a burning ice-cream truck that's lit green with pink smoke.

I don't have a problem, you have a problem!

Spirit City Lofi Sessions is a software so I don't think it should count but sure look. It plays chill lofi and background noise like rain and stuff while having a customizable bedroom, character and pet! I like to throw it on my TV while I do work.
An image showing my Steam Replay 2024 it reads, "Eyeriss's Steam Replay 2024. 225 Games Played, 721 Achievements, 1838 Sessions, 153 New Games. Most Played Games by percent of playtime, Spirit City Lofi Sessions 18%, Helldivers 2 17%, Elden Ring 10%, God of War Ragnarök 6%, Final Fantasy 16 5%.

Hi I'm Iris, I'm a solo game dev working on a racing game called Stick Drift and sometimes I stream too.

I'm working using UE5, Blender, Zbrush, Houdini, Substance Painter, Substance designer, Topogun and RizomUV to make it!

Here's some screenshot of stuff I've made!
Image of a butch Harely Quinn holding a mallet over her shoulder with a brick wall behind her and glowing green graffiti saying "Ha Ha" and black graffiti saying "He's Watching". image of a woman reaching for the camera with an Infinity mirror for a face, pink skin with gold tattoos, white and gold hair, leather bracers and belt with celtic designs on them with a flannel dress and a gold arm band. She also has a hole inthe palm of her hands and in the center of her chest. There is a glowing torus around her lighting her and causing a lens distortion effect. An image of a DnD miniature of a woman wearing a cloak and monk garbs holding a sword across her chest ready to attack with her foot raised. There is also a floating skull on her shoulder. An image of Harley Quinn in her Jester outfit standing in an A pose.

I think I might finally cave and buy a Houdini license so I can learn it properly.

Like being able to make a simple building generator in like an hour of just clicking around trying to remember how it works from college is just too useful especially when I can export it into a game engine as a tool
