Blender 3D : ... all available nodes !

An old surce code in python for Blender 3D to see available nodes :

import bpy

node_tree = bpy.context.object.active_material.node_tree

location_x = 0
location_y = 0

for type in dir(bpy.types):
    real_type = getattr(bpy.types, type)
    if issubclass(real_type, bpy.types.ShaderNode):
        try:
            node = node_tree.nodes.new(type)
            node.width = 250
            node.location = (location_x, location_y)
            location_x += 300
            if location_x > 3000:
                location_x = 0
                location_y -= 600
        except:
            pass

Abandoned games - the perfect recipe !

If you search on youtube with terms "abandoned games" you will find a lot of abandoned games with play areas without real players.

It is a negative factor in the development of a game type product and is real and quantifiable ...

These abandoned games are an overly pretentious point of view, and can mislead a potential supporter of a game development project.

From my point of view, the risk of creating and marketing a game is similar to a new product launched in marketing...

After all, let's think a little differently to understand: you want to launch some kind of commercial product: a cake, a new vehicle, a battery, a hat, a cap, an urban architecture project... Whatever you want, you will take the necessary steps to promote. Now create an online or computer game to promote this product... you will better understand why abandoned games are actually projects completed over periods of time with well-defined purposes...

From the point of view of design and development of projects in games, some youtube channels and videos can be real sources in the case study of the development of a game project. Let's see some examples:

Many hours of example with abandoned game from Redlyne .

FASM : simple bootloader source code with menu .

This is the source code with a boot menu and can be tested with qemu emulator.

I need to use the Sonet 3.5 artificial inteligence to search infos and make this source code better, but I learn assembly in the past.

The compile commands of the source code:

mythcat@localhost:~/fasm$ ./fasm.x64
flat assembler  version 1.73.32
...
mythcat@localhost:~/fasm$ ./fasm.x64 bootloader.asm bootloader.bin
flat assembler  version 1.73.32  (16384 kilobytes memory, x64)
2 passes, 512 bytes.

The test with qemu tool:

mythcat@localhost:~/fasm$ qemu-system-x86_64 -drive format=raw,file=bootloader.bin

Let's see the source code:

News : stablecog online tool generate artificial photos.

This news this online tool is old ...

My results with the free version were not very promising. Obviously, the basic test for those who know the theory and even for those who don't is to make substantial changes while keeping the information correctly framed. Obviously it is possible, but I suspect that it is a deepfake protection. More simply, I tried to modify a photo with a person ... if I modify the settings to keep realism, then it does not make any modifications.

I like that it contains many generators with many models of artificial intelligence and can be tested and the free version has a significant number of attempts.

Black Forest Labs, a company with a team that contributed to the creation of the original Stable Diffusion have released their new model called FLUX.1. It is a 12 billion parameter rectified flow transformer. Based on discussions on Reddit and HuggingFace, it seems like the community is very excited about this new model. We are as well, in fact, we think it is the best open-source AI image model currently available. Let’s take a look at what it offers.

Red programming language ...

Red is a next-generation programming language strongly inspired by Rebol, but with a broader field of usage thanks to its native-code compiler, from system programming to high-level scripting and cross-platform reactive GUI, while providing modern support for concurrency, all in a zero-install, zero-config, single ~1MB file!

Pydroid 3 android application for python ...

The Pydroid3 android application is the best way to test and run python scripts.

I install python packages with the install option, the pip command on terminal comes with errors for same python package.

I used the free version but if you pay for monthly or lifetime then you can have more features.

Same team come with android applications to have add more features, see these IIEC team appplicatons.
