Oh man, that last one was so good. Number 19 in the Surprise category?

Dialogue Prompt (That you're more than welcome to ask from)

(Hanji and Wheeljack just being complete dumbasses together and nearly getting each other killed.)

"So, Commandant," Wheeljack began in his bipedal mode, "How are we going to run this experiment?"

"Well, I wanted to test how well the the diluted energon crystals from Eren and raw energon would fair as a power source for the 3D gear." Hanji gestured to the 3D Gear lying on the table, "What are the risks and benefits of using both products? How easy one would be for transport? All that shit."

Hanji put on her gloves and opened the container to the gas tank. She extended her hand to the Wrecker and beckoned him forward. "Give me the diluted energon, please?"

"So tiny," Wheeljack grumbled as he picked up the energon with his digits.

"Well maybe this is why you should get a holoform," Hanji smirked.

"You know I didn't have the time." Wheeljack gently placed the energon in her hand. Hanji placed it in the gas tank and locked it without giving it a second thought. She grabbed the handle and walked a safe distance from the device bolted to the table. She pulled the trigger and locked it in place, and the device began to spew a stream of blue gas. Hanji tapped her foot before careening her head to Wheeljack.

"So...," Hanji trailed off, "What do you think about 3D gear usage? From a scientific standpoint."

"It defies all laws of physics that I'm sure it'd give Doc a headache," Wheeljack answered, "I, personally, love it. It's creative, and it reminds me of something on Earth that's super popular."

"Really? What is that?" Hanji asked.

"Something about a human in a red and blue suit," Wheeljack recalled, "Think I heard the humans talk about it once."

"Good to know," Hanji smiled, "If we ever meet, I will ask about it."

Hanji then turned her attention to the table of energon and noticed something wrong. The diluted energon pile...it wasn't touched. At all. It was in fact...the energon pile that was messed with. "Wheeljack?"

"Yep?" Wheeljack asked.

"You gave me the diluted energon, right?" Hanji asked.

"Yeah, it's the...," Wheeljack paused when he pointed to the pile, "That was the diluted energon right?"

"I'm asking you!" Hanji began to panic as she ran over to the piles, "Holy shit! You gave me the energon!"

"I did not!" Wheeljack denied.

"Clearly you did!" Hanji shouted.

"It looked the same!" Wheeljack argued, "I got it mixed up!"

"Looked the same?! Are you kidding?!" Hanji demanded, “What do you mean you got the piles mixed up?! There are tags that are very clearly labeled ENERGON and DILUTED ENERGON!! This is your fucking fuel source!"

Wheeljack and Hanji stopped arguing when they heard a high pitched noise. They snapped their heads to see the gas tank heating up to a point where the metal was clearly changing color.

"Oh fuck! Oh shit! Oh fuck! I need to shut it off!" Hanji tried to run to the switch, but Wheeljack quickly grabbed her and shielded her from the device exploding in a blue puff of smoke. The pieces of the 3D gear flew everywhere and hit the ground, some of them up in blue flames. Hanji peaked over Wheeljack's servos to see the damage done as the Wrecker set her down.

"Huh," Wheeljack could only muster, "That could've been a lot worse."

Hanji sighed as she picked up her notebook and wrote her observations down. "I can't help but agree with you. That was not the most destructive experiment I've conducted."

Hanji continued writing her observations as she stomped on the fires to put them out. "So here's what we're going to do now. You are going to get your optics checked because someone is clearly color blind!"

"They are nearly the same shade of blue!" Wheeljack shot back.

"Next." A devious smile formed on Hanji's face as she shut the notebook in her hand, "We are going to get another 3D gear equipment! Oh, this is so much fun!"

Levi observed with a telescope from afar, grimacing at the sight of the blue smoke. He folded the telescope before climbing down the tree. He needed to tell Optimus that something blew up.

Particle Systems and Dynamics in Animation: A Comprehensive Overview

Particle systems and dynamics are critical tools in the realm of computer graphics and 3D animation, enabling the creation of complex, natural phenomena such as fire, smoke, water, explosions, and more. These techniques are essential for animators and visual effects artists to simulate and visualize the intricate behaviors of various elements in a scene, bringing life and realism to digital environments. At the best animation institute in Pune, students learn to master these advanced techniques, ensuring they can create stunning visual effects and realistic simulations that elevate their work to professional standards.

#### What Are Particle Systems?

Particle systems are a technique used in computer graphics to simulate fuzzy, chaotic phenomena that are difficult to represent using traditional modeling methods. A particle system is essentially a collection of many small particles, each of which can have its own properties, such as position, velocity, color, size, and lifespan. These particles are generated from a source or emitter and can move, change, and interact over time according to the rules defined by the animator or the dynamics system.

For example, when creating a fire effect, a particle system might emit particles that start as bright orange and yellow, fade to red, and then disappear as gray ash or smoke. The particles might move upwards, mimicking the behavior of flames, while their size and brightness diminish over time.

#### Components of a Particle System

A particle system is composed of several key components:

1. **Emitter:** The emitter is the source from which particles are generated. It defines the initial conditions of the particles, such as their position, direction, and initial velocity. Emitters can take various forms, such as points, lines, surfaces, or volumes, depending on the desired effect.

2. **Particles:** These are the individual elements that make up the system. Each particle has attributes such as position, velocity, color, size, and lifespan, which can change over time according to the rules set by the animator.

3. **Forces and Dynamics:** Forces such as gravity, wind, and drag can be applied to particles to simulate real-world physics. Dynamics determine how particles interact with their environment and with each other.

4. **Renderers:** Renderers are responsible for converting the particle data into visible elements in the final animation. This might involve rendering particles as points of light, tiny 3D models, or even more complex shapes like splashes or puffs of smoke.

#### Dynamics in Particle Systems

Dynamics refers to the rules and physical forces that govern the movement and behavior of particles within a system. These can include basic physics principles like gravity and inertia, as well as more complex interactions like collisions and fluid dynamics.

1. **Gravity and Wind:** These are fundamental forces that influence how particles move through space. Gravity pulls particles downward, while wind can push them in a specific direction. These forces can be adjusted to create various effects, such as falling leaves or blowing dust.

2. **Collisions:** Collisions allow particles to interact with other objects in the scene. For example, raindrops can collide with the ground and create splashes, or sparks from an explosion can bounce off surfaces.

3. **Fluid Dynamics:** Fluid dynamics is a specialized area within particle systems that deals with the simulation of liquids and gases. Techniques like smoothed-particle hydrodynamics (SPH) are used to create realistic water flows, smoke, and fire.

4. **Soft and Rigid Body Dynamics:** These dynamics are used to simulate objects that deform or maintain their shape under force. Soft body dynamics are useful for creating effects like cloth or jelly-like substances, while rigid body dynamics are used for simulating hard objects like rocks or debris.

#### Applications of Particle Systems and Dynamics

The applications of particle systems and dynamics in animation and visual effects are vast and varied. Some of the most common uses include:

1. **Environmental Effects:** Particle systems are often used to create environmental effects like rain, snow, fog, dust, and fire. These elements add realism and atmosphere to a scene, making it more immersive.

2. **Explosions and Debris:** In action sequences, particle systems are used to simulate explosions, debris, and other chaotic phenomena. These effects require precise control over particle behavior to achieve realistic results.

3. **Magical and Sci-Fi Effects:** Particle systems are also widely used in creating magical effects like glowing orbs, energy blasts, and other supernatural phenomena in fantasy and sci-fi genres.

4. **Character Effects:** Particles can be used to enhance character animations, such as creating hair or fur simulations, generating sparks from a character's movements, or simulating sweat and blood.

5. **Fluid Simulations:** Water, lava, and other fluid simulations rely heavily on particle systems and fluid dynamics to achieve realistic flows and interactions with the environment.

#### The Future of Particle Systems and Dynamics

As technology continues to advance, the capabilities of particle systems and dynamics are expanding, allowing for even more complex and realistic simulations. With the advent of real-time rendering and GPU-accelerated simulations, animators and visual effects artists can achieve high levels of detail and realism at faster speeds than ever before.

Machine learning and AI are also beginning to play a role in particle systems, helping to optimize and automate the creation of complex effects. This allows artists to focus more on the creative aspects of their work, rather than spending time on technical details.

In conclusion, particle systems and dynamics are indispensable tools in the world of 3D animation and visual effects. They provide the means to create intricate, lifelike simulations of natural phenomena, adding depth, realism, and immersion to digital worlds. At MAAC Academy, students are trained in these advanced techniques, preparing them to push the boundaries of what can be achieved in animation. As technology continues to evolve, the possibilities for what can be achieved with these techniques are virtually limitless, promising even more spectacular and innovative visual experiences in the future.

Major Dragon Quest 3 Feature Sadly Fumbled By Kotaku

Dragon Quest III is one of the most important video games to grace our history as a society of gamers. It pioneered many very important features still used in role-playing games to this day. As such, it was revolutionary from its genesis in 1989 even through today. As such, a remake for the Nintendo Switch is on the way, launching later this year. It will launch for all other major platforms as well in both digital and physical releases. As luck would have it, this isn't even the first time the game has been remade. Over the years, Dragon Quest III had remakes for the Game Boy Color, the Super Famicom, the Wii, the PS4, the Nintendo 3DS, and even cell phones. At this point, a Switch remake was all but inevitable, and oh-so welcomed. Many fans have been clamoring for this remake of Dragon Quest III since it was officially announced a few years ago. Since then, a few issues have arisen to affect the release schedule, including the death of beloved Dragon Quest artist Akira Toriyama. You can watch the trailer for the HD-2D remake in all its glory below: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ltsk99E-RY On Friday, July 12th, the gaming website Kotaku published an article about the HD-2D remake of Dragon Quest III. Published by Square Enix, the remake is one of a game created in 1989. Back then, it was called Dragon Warrior III in the West due to issues with licensing the franchise name Dragon Quest. However, fans of the Dragon Quest franchise discovered and noted a major flaw in the article:

Dragon Quest III pioneered the day/night cycle for RPGs. (Source: Kotaku)

The Story So Far

According to Kotaku's article, Dragon Quest III's HD-2D remake uses a day/night cycle "taking inspiration from Octopath Traveler II". The fact is that Dragon Quest III was the progenitor of all day/night cycles in any video game ever. And, as expected, fans of the Dragon Quest franchise were understandably upset by Kotaku's blatant inaccuracy and disregard for journalistic integrity: https://twitter.com/TheDavidVinc/status/1812268055793385586 https://twitter.com/AtelierTohka/status/1812310333257617520 https://twitter.com/MegamanRA/status/1812268704345772128 https://twitter.com/DreamLeaf5/status/1812585908891496908 Some Twitter users went as far as to accuse Kotaku of using AI to write this article: https://twitter.com/SirGametime/status/1812279032211222897

Dragon Quest Facts?

Amid the backlash, some Twitter users quickly gave Kotaku the benefit of the doubt. They claimed that the gaming website utilized information from another tweet (from user @DragonQuestFax) that stated that the day/night cycle of DQIII's HD-2D remake was a new feature. If Kotaku did do this, it proves they didn't research the information themselves: https://twitter.com/MDirtysoul/status/1812528743455367477 As a fellow Dragon Quest fan, I too am abhorred by this false reporting on a feature that revolutionized the way we game today. I've played plenty of games in the franchise. I was always an outlier in my friend circles (many of whom would prefer other Square Enix game series like Final Fantasy or Kingdom Hearts). So to see the Western gaming press butcher a simple piece of game history like this hurt my soul. This is especially true because of Dragon Quest's still-limited appeal outside of Japan. Truth be told, most Western audiences prefer Final Fantasy, much like my friends across various circles. Shame on Kotaku for perpetuating the continued ignorance of Western audiences. This is not something that Akira Toriyama would've wanted. It's certainly not something that DQ franchise creator Yuji Horii wants, to be sure. Do better, not just for your numbers, but because of the years of hard work put into a game like this DQIII. Shorten with AI In any event, I'm waiting with bated breath for the game to release. In the meantime, I'm off to slay some Slimes in Dragon Quest VIII and see a showgirl about a Puff-Puff massage. Till next time!

This is a Puff-Puff massage, in case you were curious. Read the full article
