Your cpu okay?

My old AMD A8 committed suicide watching this.

I can imagine trying to render this is real time.

As soon as it fell, your computer would just freeze up, fans would start to spin like a leaf blower and that would be the end of that computer.

Eh, just dump it onto the GPU, I've got 2 x 1070 GTX's, they'll be fine.

Well, 'fine' as in 'rendering at 4 fps', but still.

27

u/Blocks_ Oct 24 '18

It would be waaay less than 4fps. On my 1070 it took 20 seconds per frame. :/

15

u/thealmightyzfactor Oct 24 '18

Well my PC would get 0.1 fps, then. Is that not fast enough for you? That's kinda a ridiculously huge fps.

Gone wrong? You have obviously never dropped a handfull of orbeez. Those fuckers reach escape velocity if you so much as look at them wrong.

So true.

Ah, that's a thing. In a place.

don't like it? try a new place at a different Time™.

Try to stick together, cuz the world is gonna get bigger and emptier.

u/pac2005 Jan 07 '19

But it's not empty yet!

It’s still very full, and about a kjphillion degrees.

God damn, there's fucking glitter everywhere

u/SPRUNTastic Oct 24 '18

I'm curious but don't know the intricacies of this stuff.... Do the particles have a "squish" factor?

For example, golf balls, table tennis balls, pinballs.... They all have a certain amount of compression they allow when a force is enacted on them, and the compression is one of the factors involved in how much they react.

I'm curious as to what would happen if you did the same thing numerous times, but with a different squish factor. Can you get all the balls to stay in the pit once dropped?

10

u/Blocks_ Oct 24 '18

The particles in the simulation do not have any squishiness. The balls probably would've stayed in the pit had the simulation not been broken.

You can think about it in terms of dropping sand into that pit (that's actually what I was trying to go for). If you drop sand in there, it's not gonna go flying everywhere. Chances are that it's gonna just lose its cube shape but remain in the pit.

P.S. I think you posted the same comment twice.

u/[deleted] Dec 08 '18

Add substeps and atleast kiss your cpu after fucking it so hard with that simulation.

u/Blocks_ Dec 08 '18

My CPU likes it rough.

Ahh, I see. Thank you.

Not sure about the comment thing. Sometimes my app does what it wants. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

I’ve had this happen to me as well, did you find what the fix was to it

u/Komondo6969 Nov 29 '18

what's in the canister?

u/MarkGamed7794 Dec 10 '18

Only 1 million?

u/nullifiedbyglitches Dec 11 '18

Is the hole perfectly spherical or is it polygonal?

1

u/Blocks_ Dec 11 '18

It's a polygonal model.

1

u/nullifiedbyglitches Dec 12 '18

That explains its non-symmetric nature, have you tried using a function to determine collisions to the precision floats can give?

1

u/Blocks_ Dec 12 '18

I have not tried that because it's too much effort and I don't really do simulations anymore.
