This new MacBook Air would stand apart from the models Apple announced last month with a new touchpad, no fan and a 12-inch Retina Display.Ī higher resolution Retina display means more pixels packed into a smaller space and ultimately a better looking screen. New details about how Apple may offer a MacBook Air Retina surface. The Mac Mini as it sells is almost two years old and is missing out on faster processors that can help return this small and affordable Mac to popularity. New Mac MiniĪ Mac Mini 2014 update is one piece of new Apple hardware that is not only overdue, but also a good possibility for a WWDC 2014 announcement and summer release. Jim Dalrymple of T he Loop already said, “Nope.” to a cheaper iMac, so a Retina iMac appears more likely if Apple announces an iMac.Ī new iMac Retina would bring the iMac display up into the territory of the MacBook Pro Retina and the rumored MacBook Air Retina that is expected this year. New iMac or a Cheaper iMacĪpple may be ready to announce a new iMac 2014 update that includes either a higher resolution Retina display or a cheaper iMac with a more affordable display. With a new look for OS X 10.10, Apple may take this opportunity to offer some new hardware capable of running it, although the actual OS X 10.10 release may not come for several months. Some of these are not expected until later this year, but they are more likely than an iPhone 6, at least as a surprise WWDC 2014 announcement. These devices come from leaks and analyst reports. Here is a closer look at the potential new Apple products we could see announced this morning. We already know a lot about what to expect at WWDC 2014, but there are still some covered banners upstairs, so it is clear that Apple has a few secrets yet to reveal. Apple delivered Mavericks in 2013 and Yosemite is a front-runner for the OS X 10.10 release. The OS X 10.10 name will include some word to describe the release. In addition to the new design we could see a control center like feature, AirDrop that works with iOS devices and we may see a new iOS 8 feature that lets users quickly turn the iPad or iPad mini into an external monitor for a Mac in a new report from 9to5Mac, likely one running OS X 10.10. This alleged video showing an iPhone 6 for WWDC 2014 is very unlikely. The OS X 10.10 announcement may prove more exciting with rumors suggesting an iOS 7 style redesign. It looks like iOS 8 will offer a number of new features, but will not deliver a radically new look. You can check out the iOS 8 beta without waiting and sign up for the OS X Yosemite public beta.Īt 10 AM Pacific, 1PM Eastern, Apple will hold the WWDC 2014 keynote where we should see iOS 8 announced, followed quickly by an iOS 8 beta as well as OS X 10.10. Instead Apple focused on iOS 8 for the fall and a ton of cool new OS X Yosemite features that will arrive this fall as well. WWDC 2014 concluded without any new Apple hardware. Here is a look at what Apple could announce in the hardware department at WWDC 2014 without taking too much of the spotlight off of the software. Apple announced the iPhone 4 at WWDC, but based on leaks and rumors it is unlikely that Apple will announce the iPhone 6 today. If Samsung ran their other divisions as well as their washing machine/TV divisions, maybe their cell phones would not suck as much.Over the weekend a video allegedly showing an iPhone 6 as part of Apple’s WWDC announcement surfaced, with a quick rotation of the same design as many iPhone 6 mock ups that circulated over the past several weeks. I personally own 2 Samsung products (an excellent 5 years HD TV that does not let me down, and an amazing washing machine that not only cleans better than the German machines but does so more efficiently. This was a software driven, future grabbing day for Apple and I applaud them for shining brighter than Chrome's lack of clarity (OS/Hardware/Browser/TV dongle ?), Android partner's complete lack of innovation at the software level to simply make a better product. It is about time they threw out some digs against Android (in reality Google) for the mismanagement of their OS, the inability to delivery easy upgrades to average users (fact check this one-it's easy to do) and to enforce the security and protection of their client-base will always be a priority as the old adage goes " a happy customer is a returning customer" there is no better customer than one that comes back to buy again! I am not sure how this crowd feels about the overall feel of the show, but I for one, loved the charm, the humour and shared presence of many personalities (old and new alike) that drive this modern progressive company forward.

#6) Souka – The relationship between Souka and Rimuru is pretty much the same as between him and Haruna. Haruna is very fond of him as well and very loyal, but doesn’t seem to be interested in a romantic relationship and is just another one of his devoted followers who wants to be useful to him. Haruna is ultimately just another member of Rimuru’s community, but he has shown attraction to her and considers her a friend. #5) Haruna – To be honest, there isn’t really much of relationship between Rimuru and Haruna outside of friendship. Chloe’s own love and her fondness for him is even enough to cause Hinata to have a change of heart and develop feelings for him as well. Out of all the kids he teaches, he seems to be the closest and fondest of her, caring about her more than the others, and even giving her Shizue’s mask, claiming that it felt natural. He does, however, wish she were older when she confessed, suggesting that despite her age, he hasn’t completely ruled her out as a love interest once she grows up. She even confesses her love to him, and while Rimuru is happy about it, he doesn’t take her seriously since she’s so young. They do have a cute relationship though, and Chloe does develop a pretty big crush on him that grows over time. And if you consider how young he is after being reborn, he’s technically even younger than her. #4) Chloe Aubert – Yes, I know, the relationship between Chloe and Rimuru is weird considering the fact that she’s still a kid, but Rimuru’s own age is a gray area as well since he was once a grown man who was reincarnated, and then later there’s his ability to alter his body to older and younger forms, and his default form doesn’t seem to be much older than Chloe anyway. He does consider her a close friend and ally though, and has shown to be attracted to her. And while Rimuru does consider her a good friend, he does get uncomfortable around her at times due to her personality and Demon Lord status, but he knows how to keep her in check, sometimes using their friendship to his advantage when he needs to, but is respectful of her status and power. She doesn’t seem to realize that she has feelings for Rimuru, and interprets them as friendship, despite always being very affectionate towards him. They met and became friends under rather unorthodox means, but it was enough to cement their relationship, and Miliam considers the two of them to be each other’s best friend. #3) Miliam Nava – To call the relationship between Miliam and Rimuru complicated is an understatement. He’s shown to be attracted to her, and likes her large breasts, but only seems to see her as a good friend. He cares a great deal for her though, even becoming a Demon Lord to bring her and the rest of his people back to life. Like with Shuna, Rimuru knows she wants his attention and enjoys carrying around his slime form, but doesn’t seem to realize her true feelings. She also enjoys cooking for him, not knowing that her cooking is literally toxic. She’s very loyal and protective of him, and will quickly resort to violence if he’s threatened or disrespected. Shion is just as clingy to Rimuru as Shuna is, only she’s a bit more possessive, even making herself his secretary so she can be around him more, and she gets jealous when other girls are around him, and is always seeking his attention, often butting heads with Shuna in the process. #2) Shion – The relationship between Shion and Rimuru is very similar, almost identical, to that of Shuna and Rimuru, so much so that it’s practically the same, and it ultimately came down to which of the two of them I liked more. He cares about her a lot though and considers her a really good friend, but has also shown a great deal of attraction to her and thinks she’s very cute. Rimuru, however, doesn’t seem to realize she’s in love with him, only thinks that she’s very fond of him and wants his attention, and thinks that her affection is mostly based on his slime form being so cuddly. She’s completely devoted and loyal to him and wants to be around him as much as possible, often getting jealous when other girls spend time with him. It’s obvious that she’s completely in love with him and is always fighting with Shion for his attention. #1) Shuna – The relationship between Shuna and Rimuru is both funny and cute. Rankings divided into Top Shippings (who I ship with the character), Ok Shippings (not people I ship with the character, but who I wouldn’t mind), and Low Shippings (people I do not ship with the character). This harem shipping has Rimuru Tempest/Satoru Mikami with 10 possible love interests, the main ones being Shuna and Shion. This is my shipping ranking for “ That Time I Got Reincarnated As A Slime ”, and why I ship them in this order. I think the fact that Epic does a sh*t job enforcing these standards is the source of confusion. Any bone given a scale other than 1.0 (100%) will cause problems in engine. In addition to being sloppy workflow in general, UE4 does not support bone scaling in animation. You should never scale bones ever for any reason. Skeleton Assets | Unreal Engine Documentation ‘Rigged to Epic Skeleton’ means you use the same joint hierarchy, with the same names, and same orientation relative to the part of the character weighted to it. could not be practically done like this and as such will not have the ‘Scaled to Epic skeleton’ descriptor. If its a dwarf character, it should come up to the mannequin’s waste. If its a door, the mannequin can walk through it. If its a gun, if fits in the mannequin’s hand. ‘Scaled to Epic skeleton’ means that it is proportional to the mannequin and applies to any mesh asset. Is this the same thing, or what exactly do they mean by that (scaled in engine, in the modeling software, in animations, …)? The submission guidelines ( ) also mention “ Skeleton must not be scaled” for character submissions (section 8). The submission guidelines ( Epic Games Technical Support & Customer Service | Epic Games) also mention “ Skeleton must not be scaled” for character submissions (section 8). The film has a pretty simple storyline as a Navy base has a plane land where only the pilot is alive and the rest of the crew have mysteriously disappeared. Is this in any way destructive? All animations i make this way seem to be working as intended in engine. the Night Monsters, The (1966) 1/2 (out of 4) This now legendary cult movie has the reputation of being one of the worst ever made but I wouldn't go that far. So far, my workflow has always been to import the Mannequin into my 3D modeling software, scale it to match the height of the character i created and then proceed to move the bones to their appropriate location on the mesh. Is this any different from being rigged to the Epic skeleton, and if so, what does it mean exactly? Does the mesh have to be the same height in total, or do all proportions neet to be exact or something? Both of these seem unlikely to me because then all meshes on the marketplace would have very similar bodies. This requirement seems pretty straightforward, but when I look at skeletal meshes on the Marketplace (as well as the submission guidelines), the description always mentions ‘ scaled to Epic skeleton’ as well. As I understood it, this meant that all bones have the same name and structure (basically the conditions to use the same skeleton) and that every bone is placed in the same place on the body in the same way the bones from the Epic skeleton are placed on the Mannequin mesh. I am currently creating character models that are rigged to the Epic skeleton. Production drawings of the MP Evangelions. In Episode 26', they play a role in the initiation of Third Impact and the Human Instrumentality Project. The nine completed Mass Production Model Evangelions are deployed in Episode 25' to neutralize Evangelion Unit-02. This is slightly confusing, since the "Eva Series" technically encompasses every Evangelion ever made. Within the series itself, these Evangelions are referred to almost exclusively as the EVA Series ( エヴァシリーズ ). The nine are deployed as part of SEELE's assault on the NERV HQ Geofront, but their primary function is to carry out SEELE's version of Third Impact, which ends up utilizing Evangelion Unit-01. However, SEELE had to advance the construction schedule for them, as they wanted to initiate Third Impact as soon as the final Angel was destroyed, and, as a result, three units were never completed. Nine Mass Production Evangelions were created out of an originally planned twelve Evangelions (through Unit-16). The Heavy Spears twist and contort to turn into the replicas when required. They carry no armament except for replicas of the Spear of Longinus, colored blue-gray and initially disguised as giant, gray Heavy Spears (" ooken"), which resemble large club-like weapons. Unit-02 did not succeed in destroying the cores of any of the attacking Units in its final battle, which resulted in their revival and Unit-02's subsequent demise. The Mass Production Evangelions, like all other Evangelions, truly die only if their cores are destroyed. This presumably allows for a greater degree of control over the Evangelions than with a living pilot, who would be susceptible to sympathetic pain and emotions such as panic, fear, or rage which would impair the Evangelion's combat ability. Rather than being controlled by living pilots, they synchronize with dummy systems generated from Kaworu Nagisa's thought patterns. The Evangelions are observed levitating in a manner similar to flight-capable Angels (such as Ramiel and Zeruel) later on, with their wings spread but serving no apparent function. Considering the Evas' size and weight, traditional powered flight (as observed in birds and bats) would normally be impossible, so the wings would feasibly be used in concert with A.T. They also possess large, fully retractable, mechanical wings (with an extended "tail" piece), attached to their shoulders. Mass Production Evangelions with their wings extended However, unlike Angels, they do not utilize their organs for regenerative purposes (even though they theoretically could). The Mass Production Evangelions have all been furnished with S² Engines, eliminating the need for umbilical cable or internal batteries. In total, there are 9 Mass Production Evangelions, all completely identical to each other. Another major difference is with the back where the charging port has been entirely removed and the entry hatch has been shortened in order to make room for the large circular plates where the wings are stored. Looking down, there has been extra venting added around the armpit and looking to the side of the shoulder, the black pentagon is shorter and sharper than the other units. Looking at the shoulders, a couple other minor differences can be seen. First, the MPE's do not possess any sort of shoulder pylon, just like Evangelion Unit-00 before its fitting. While similar in shape to the other Evangelion units, especially Evangelion Unit-02, there are a few key differences between them. The Mass Production Evangelions are mainly simplified Evangelion designs with its armor bearing mostly white color with black details in the arms. To access the Adobe Help Center, navigate to.

Synfig is both Vector and Bitmap based and from the it's 2012 demo reel embeded below, I'd say, looks to have amazing potential. It's just going to take quite some time and quite a few tutorials to get myself up to speed to the point where I could do a proper review.įor now I just wanted to make you aware that this software is out there for free - for all you would be animators dreaming of the day you can afford something like Adobe Flash (CS5) or ToonBoom Animation Studio - this looks like a good alternative if you're really serious about 2D animation. Which is not the same as being hard to learn. The reason being, I fire this software up and it just looks like hard work to learn. So, even though I've just installed the latest version, don't expect a review. I've had previous versions of Synfig installed on my computer for some time and, I'm going to confess, I've never used it. There are versions available for Mac, Windows and Linux. However the program keeps getting updated with release 0.63.05 being made available on the 9th April 2012.

Plan your photoshoot in advance according to your destination if you want outstanding results.ĭeciding what is the perfect position of the sun around the subject will help you to produce the desired light effect aligned with your desired photography theme. Some places show exceptionally long sunrises or sunsets due to their distance from the equator. Though the timing of golden hours varies through different seasons, you can use online golden hour calculators to learn what is the exact time of the golden hour for each day. The magic hour is the perfect combination of warm colors, softer light and lower angle of the sun. The short window of time for the golden hour begins one hour after sunrise and before sunset (twice a day). However, the timing and duration of the golden hour varies according to your location and due to local weather conditions. What time is golden hour? The golden hour usually appears 2 times a day for a short duration i.e. The photographer calls this time the golden hour or magic hour of photography. We cannot control the natural light in the outdoor shoot and that’s why there is a need to select the perfect time and place to get brilliant outcomes. If you want to capture an image like a professional using natural light, you need to have a clear understanding of the perfect intensity and angle of natural light. The professional photographers try to use natural light as much as they can in their photoshoots for magical and outstanding results. The cost was minimal compared to a big fancy wedding as well – there are many other ways to spend your money.Perfect lighting with the right composition skills can create wonders in photography. I think doing this for a second time later in life really lets you set those boundaries and to just do what appeals to you as a couple. Weddings always seam to be geared towards pleasing Family and not just looking at what is important. I think its important to do what you want as a couple. We were all so in awe of the scenery and how surprised at what a wonderful way it was to celebrate a wedding – was definitely a highlight. The weather was amazing and the scenery was beautiful. Ordered online and they make it to your size – all individually made just for your day. Wanted a simple yet classy one of a kind dress. Once I received a repose form you it was like a saving grace coming to assist with all my issues for planning this Las Vegas Wedding.īride – Dress by Grace Loves Lace – online out of Australia – amazing company. Then came across Elopement Las Vegas – sent an email immediately. There were a few companies offering a Limo and Red Roses but not my style. I had spent countless evenings that turned into midnight scrolling the website for how to get married outdoors outside of Vegas. Since we enjoy the outdoors we started looking at outdoor Vegas weddings and then came across pictures of beautiful red rock formations and we were hooked. But after sorting through a few not so desirable websites offering elopements and the typical Vegas chapel wedding we needed to find an intimate and simple way to get married. We visioned simple/fun/still classy and really wanted some nice warm weather – we always knew it would be Vegas. Since this was a second wedding, we knew we wanted it to be non-traditional and fun! There was no pleasing anyone as it felt this time we would do it our way and not the family way, We had already picked a ring out together but the actual proposal date was a surprise. This was a simple one done at one of our favorite steak houses. They are huge outdoor lovers and wanted a fun wedding to incorporate what they love! They had the best golden hour ceremony and she had a show stopping bouquet! Margaret and Les wanted to have a non-traditional wedding in Vegas, minus the cheesy Chapel feel. She lured Marie Levesque, a lover of Pluto, to Alaska, a land where the gods would be out of her reach. Gaea used the opportunity to try and once again raise her children, the Gigantes. Gaea once again started to wake while the gods were fighting themselves during World War II. Some time later, Gaea used the Giants she has been harboring during the First Olympian War to avenge the Titans by attacking Mount Olympus, only for them to be defeated by the Olympian gods and demigods. It is unknown if Metis escaped or not, but she never conceived the second child, so Gaea's plan, at least for a time, failed. He convinced Hephaestus to ax his head open and out came a matured Athena. A few days later, Zeus received severe headaches. To avoid this fate, Zeus convinced Metis to transform into a fly, and then swallowed her. She prophesied that Zeus' wife Metis would bear two children, first a daughter, and second a son who would eventually overthrow him. However, that was not Gaea's last attempt to overthrow the Olympians. Gaea then made peace with the Olympians and promised not to bother the Olympians again. However, with the help of the other gods, Zeus, with his lightning bolts, was able to trap Typhon under Mount Etna. He, with the help of Echidna, was able to render Zeus helpless and (because Zeus is immortal) imprison him in a cave. Typhon, being the father of all monsters, was one of the worst enemies Zeus and the Olympians had to face. Gaea's first attempt to avenge the Titans was, with the spirit of Tartarus, giving birth to Typhon. Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades used their father's scythe to chop Kronos into a thousand pieces as he did to Ouranos, and banished the other Titans who sided with Kronos into Tartarus with bonds that they will never break. Zeus, through deception by his mother Rhea and with the help of Gaea, avoided this fate, and later rescues the Hekatonkheires from Gaea's womb and the Cyclops from Tartarus, and forced his father to vomit up his brothers and sisters.Ī war then started between the Titans and the gods, Hecatonchires, and Cyclops. Gaea then prophesied that Kronos in turn was destined to be overthrown by his own son, and so the Titan attempted to avoid this fate by devouring his young. However, Kronos didn't rescue his brothers, and Gaea was angry with him. He took a scythe Gaea made and used it to get rid of his father. She asked her children to get rid of Ouranos so she could save her other children, and only Kronos was brave enough to do it. She was also the mother of the Protogenoi Pontus, the primordial personification of the ocean.Īfter Ouranos pushed the Hekatonkheires back into Gaea's womb and the Cyclops into Tartarus, Gaea was furious. Gaea also gave birth to the first Cyclopses as well as the Hekatonkheires. She also consorted with her grandsons, Poseidon and Zeus, her second husband and brother, Tartarus, and her son, Pontus. When they fail to end the gods' reign, she sends forth her children with Tartarus, the Giants. Gaea and her husband as well as son Ouranos became partners and brought forth the Titans, their children. She is however, ironically somewhat responsible for their rise to power. In Greek Mythology, she mainly exists as an enemy of the Olympians, sending Typhon and later the Giants to overthrow them. Gaea was the first (in some stories third) being to arise from Chaos at the beginning of time. Though sometimes presented as a maternal figure, particularly toward her Titan children, she can also be very cruel. |
