Dealing with Unity versions
I recently got a MacBook Air to serve as a mobile-friendly companion to my iMac and it got me thinking about how to deal with Unity installs. I had primarily been working on a single machine without any team members to worry about. Therefore my one machine, and the Unity versions on it, were all that mattered. But as I...
Copying Markdown text from Visual Studio Code
Youâre trying to copy Markdown out of a .md document in VS Code and the results arenât as youâd expect when you go to paste elsewhere. I was trying to paste it into Notion and most of the formatting wasnât honored. Bizarre.
Turns out VS Code is trying to be overly helpful and applying syntax highlighting when ...
Please Vote
Are you registered to vote? We all need to do our part so we can get things turned around. Black lives matter. Masks work. Taking foreign aid to win an election is wrong. Walls donât work. If we donât get out there and vote in the coming weeks there might not be a ânext timeâ. Itâs that bad. We need to end th...

The p...

Depending on your tablet you may have a Touch Ring or a little scrol...
Fixing Wacom Intuos Pro lag
Iâm currently using an Intuos Pro M and on an iMac 5K and I was getting a ton of lag when the computer was doing intensive things, like rendering. The touch surface worked perfectly fine, but the pen was unusable.
I was able to fix this by downgrading the Wacom Driver to 6.3.37-2. Make sure you uninstall all the old...
The software used in game development
If youâre getting into game development like I am, you may quickly find yourself overwhelmed by all the software required to get the job done. Iâve been creating things on computers for a long time and itâs even got me like, âMan, another program? And itâs how much?â Anyways, I figured Iâd detail the soft...
ZBrush made me get a tablet
Iâd originally made this post about getting a 3-button mouse, but by the time I got to ZBrush I had no chance. I just donât see how you can be proficient in the program without pressure sensitivity.
I had an old Wacom Intuos3 honker, but I think Wacom stopped updating the drivers because I couldnât even open the...
