Following a suggestion;

I'm looking for someone who renders armor and fabric like this. (in the little boxes)

This specific artist hasn't been around since 2020. :(

But if your style is similar, hit me up!
If not, sharing and reposting is good! :D

Of course, no AI.
Poster-styled image with a red background and gold border. Large gold text reads; "I WANT TO COMMISSION YOU", with smaller text that reads, "if your art style looks like this". Below that, there are four square images showcasing a specific art style, focusing on the smoothly-shaded, almost dull grey metal that isn't very reflective and similarly smoothly-shaded fabric. Text below that reads; "This piece was done by Jooyoung Park, who’s been gone a long time. :( PLEASE CONTACT @SirGreaves.bsky.social If you, or someone you know, can draw like this. If not, please help me get more eyes on this by sharing and reposting :D"

I really like when my inventory looks like it all matches.
A cropped screenshot of Elden Ring, showing Sir Greaves' inventory full of mostly raw metal and black things, including a ghostflame torch which has very pale blue coloring. His hotbar is full of various random items though.

Behold, the PNG-wiggler! (Volume warning)

The things I was using lacked the features I wanted, so I did a little tinkering with Javascript.

It has a silence threshold, a loudness threshold, and can apply effects to all states. The wiggling is greatly exaggerated for demonstration purposes.

I've since taken some screenshots in comparable lighting so the difference is much more visible.

I could've just run Tiberian Sun at 1080p.

It's actually pretty good at filling the space. But then all the menus, units, etc. would be super tiny since it was made for smaller displays. I wanted something a bit easier to see lol
Screenshot of Tiberian Sun's main menu at 1080p, with absolutely huge letterboxing. The menu is just a tiny rectangle with what looks like enough blank space around it for eight copies. A screenshot of Tiberian Sun, in-game, running at 1080p. The game definitely fills the screen quite well, but the menu and units are all tiny.

Using the usual cnc-ddraw method, it would look fine as long as a menu wasn't open. I don't mind this while playing off-stream, but wanted a "proper" view on-stream.

And using the ddrawcompat method, OBS was unable to capture the game through any method but Display Capture.

Continued 🡫

Here's every surviving unit from the end of today's #TiberianSun mission. (Except one GDI Jump Jet Infantry who I forgot on a random island off-screen.)

If I'd known the whole map was dotted with SAM sites, I wouldn't've made so many Orca Fighters.

I don't know why I felt the need to do this. :D
Screenshot showing 2 NOD Harpy aircraft, 10 GDI Orca Fighters, 6 GDI Amphibian APCs, 3 Engineers, 3 Medics, 6 GDI Wolverines, 28 NOD Cyborgs (one of which is legless), 11 Light Infantry, and 8 Tiberium Harvesters.

Estus is just for testing, but I did it :D
AND it doesn't give errors when I drop it on my desk. I can probably do something with that later.

On the plus side, going around the entire map let me find this ore boulder right on the edge of the new area, which means I don't have to spoil anything for myself while also getting the next tier of armor and stuff :D

I've set up drills around it, but won't craft anything with it until Saturday.
Screenshot of Sir Greaves' Core Keeper character standing next to a boulder of green ore. It seems to be layered, the ends of eaxh segment showing multiple rings. It's sorta like malachite, which I think is neat

This dungeon I dismissed, saying it's just a normal ocean dungeon? Yeah, it turns out it's the challenge room I was looking for lol

Not only that, but I had previously marked the same structure.

That's what I get for not even checking

#CoreKeeper
Screenshot of my map in Core Keeper, showing a large gap of unexplored area. The edges are revealed and show some sort of structure encased in crystal. It has two map markers placed on it from earlier exploration.

Happy New Year, Tarnished!
Are you excited for 'Elden Ring: Nightreign'? I am! :D

#CoreKeeper letting me find triple boulders of Scarlet, Solarite, and Galaxite by digging in a straight line, but keeping Octarine out of reach is so mean. (Jokingly, of course.)

To my knowledge, you can't progress to Galaxite without Octarine. As each ore crafts into the next tier of station.
Picture of three Scarlet boulders, surrounded by drills and conveyors feeding into a Smelter Kiln. Picture of three Solarite boulders, surrounded by drills and conveyors feeding into a Fury Forge.

When did they start letting us do this?

[ #EldenRing ]
Image of the player-character standing in Roundtable Hold. A dialogue box is present, asking where the player would like to send their summon sign. The options are nearby or far-reaching, and far-reaching is both enabled and highlit. Sir Greaves doesn't remember being able to do this previously, but it's been an amount of time since he last checked.

Tiny Glade is really relaxing. No need to think too hard, just build cute stuff.

Being able to move and duplicate clutter/props is so nice. Even if it means re-rolling until I get a prop I want lol
Image of a row of little houses or shops, each with different pastel-color roofs and walls, each a slightly different shape and size. It's snowing, and everything has a light dusting of white. Despite this, there's a warm tint from the sun.

I don't care WHAT I'm playing when this drops, I'm switching to it the second I can.

Truer words never spoken!
This specifically and the lifedrain effects in Elden Ring, I had to make a vampire.

Here you go
A four panel meme, made with characters from Elden Ring. First panel is Millicent, captioned "It's okay to ask for help". Second panel is Melina, captioned "You're not a burden". Third panel is Ranni, captioned "Murder is okay". Fourth panel is Nepheli Loux, captioned "Your feelings matter".

Is this how the meme works?
Image is of a normal Greathelm captioned "some knight", next to Sir Greaves' mostly Greathelm-shaped helm, but with details that makes it distinct, labeled "Sir Greaves??"

May as well add my usual Elden Ring fashion to complete the set.

The Knight chestpieces are about as modest as it gets in ER, while still being armored.

Still wish we could tailor the crest off, but it's not too big a deal.
Screenshot of the player-character in Elden Ring, wearing the Greathelm, Scaled Gauntlets, Gelmir Knight armor (altered to remove the cape), and Raya Lucarian greaves. This combination more-or-less looks like a complete set while being cobbled together from different sets.

Here's what I've got lol
Screenshot of Dark Souls 1 Remastered player-character wearing the Knight chestpiece, called Nameless Knight in Dark Souls 2 and 3, with Elite Knight helmet, gauntlets, and leggings. The colors and reflectivity are close enough that no piece seems out of place against the rest.

Image is of the player-character in Dark Souls 2 wearing the Nameless Knight chestpiece and Elite Knight leggings. The Elite Knight leggings are significantly shinier, which bothers Sir Greaves because they don't match.

So happy I get to bring back the Doomguy mech suit, starting today, while I play through DOOM: Eternal.

Thanks, @affea100.bsky.social ! :D
