Thanks awesome Marcos!

I understand, and I do not think that Linux will stagnate in it's embracing by new users in the future as it strives to become more versatile and easier to use. It's just very scary for casual users that want to make the change from another OS and then they realize that some (very few/particular) things require the terminal in order to get things going, or some of their daily workflow software can't be ported and require alternatives. There are also some attention given from Nvidia and Radeon, in the recent years, for developing better dedicated drivers for their hardware support on Linux. Of course, there are other factors that relate to the popularity of Open Source, such as Marketing Campaigns, Industry standards, etc, etc. I do use Fedora-Linux for other activities, and funny enough I can even install the Linux Kernel right within Windows, but sadly I have very specialized software that can't be replaced on Linux, so I am stuck in between working with both of them on multiple Devices.

This is the appeal of the story building. History became the stuff of forgotten legends and we are just stumbling through the ruins trying to figure out the mysteries and intentions of the former powers that ruled the underrails.

Hehehe, yeah it would have been more bombastic ^_^

Btw, the next 2 videos that will pop up next week are going to be related to practical applications that you can do with this type of design. I think you will find it quite mind melting how powerful Inkscape is outside of Inkscape 😄

@@inkscapepanda Nice.

Wow this looks dope. Will definitely sink my claws into it. Thanks!

It's a real best when you get to know it better! 😁

@@inkscapepanda Indeed, day by day I see its possibilities. Your video is a positive addition to Inkscape's tutorials.

@@theuggorim5737 You should check the latest experiments I done with Inkscape regarding animations, and I still have quite a few things to learn and implement myself.

@@inkscapepanda I'll

Thanks awesome Marcos!

Could you please give me an example of how transition FX should look like. There are some advanced things you can achieve in Inkscape and it has Blending capabilities, if that is what you are after.

Haha, yeah.. sneaky double meanings!

There are computer logs In the game that describe how they used submersibles to reach the Shadowlith initially. This is also one of the reasons they built the underwater facility afterwards (to study it). Plus the Ferryman makes a lot of references to the "down bellow", but that is more on the philosophical side of views.

​ @inkscapepanda damn, they do not have these logs on wiki, I'll have to check it out. I was under impression that they found monolith and moved it to station. I remember there is one log that describes how heavy it is to move (did they had to reinforce floor or something?). That would imply what we see in R&D is whole monolith, not part since it was carried and can not be cut off, as they managed to cut part of disk only later. but my memory could have played tricks on me, I'll have to find logs...

@@davdav1370 Yeah, the wiki does have some parts missing, but you have to look at the wiki as an addendum rather than a source.

@@inkscapepanda I was hoping wiki has computer logs from R&D, I was referring to that.

@@inkscapepanda I would love to see these part you mentioned, as I'm first time hearing this, so I'm fascinated. However, are you sure you didn't misunderstood something. I've searched for let's plays, and look at log that describes shadowlith discovery: ua-cam.com/video/-R5LC_2inME/v-deo.html There is explicit mention that monolith is 3m long when found and that it was moved and floor had to be reinforced. There is no mention that it was cut from larger piece. In fact, following logs say that it is impossible to cut, all until they received mysterious disk and finally cut small portion of monolith (which ended up in temple). Do you remember where are logs about how majority of monolith is under sea, in which part of game ?

Definitely. There's one more video related to Component Transfer that will drop soon. I figured that part after I have done this video.

I think you will enjoy the future videos that will follow as I have gone through all the filters in detail and there will also be something on how to grapple with XML code. 😁

I already posted this feature request in the Inkscape gitlab, and they are addressing it in one of the future updates. Yeah, swatches do need some more work and we won't see them any time soon in 1.4, but there are big changes coming to 1.5 (probably next year).

I've also thought of that initially, but it seems that Inkscape only uses that function when the interacting directly with the clones. Clipping stores the clone "outside" of the clipping group you work in, and thus it does not affect it the same way.

@@inkscapepanda I use about 1% of Inkscape's capabilities. When I try to learn something new in Inkscape I come across this "understanding of terminology" issue. Again - in this case - I learn that a clone is not a clone unless it is a "clone". Lol I recently purchased Affinity deigner and I am coming across the same issue. There, Affinity Symbols = Inkscape clones (almost). Affinity Assets = Inkscape symbols (almost). No matter what you call it - they are not going to do what you think they are going to do. LOL

Hehe, I think XML looks scary because it feels so condensed in that tinny panel. I will probably go through the structure in a future video to explain how it works. Releasing a clipping mask manually is easy when you have few of them, but if you would have a ton of duplicates, then doing some text magic tricks in XML can solve things uber fast. Of course, these are very situational and most people won't crash into them, but XML can do some really wild things that are not available through the UI of Inkscape.

@@inkscapepanda This is absolutely true.

This is the amazing part of using Inkscape, you can change everything and make it your own fork while basing it on the original updates. Even Inkscape started as a fork of Sodipodi.

Hello awesome @CTRL_SMarcos really nice to hear from you, oh wow I did not know about the Shift + F11, I'm definitely going to make good use of this ^_^ Thanks!

To be honest I only went for Affinity because neither Krita or Gimp clicked with me when it came to digital painting, plus the price was reasonable for a "1 time" purchase for all 3 software. But I also tend to stick to open source software myself.

@@inkscapepanda I have to agree 100% of everything covered in this video.

I love those traps, although towards the end of the game you become so godlike that you even forget to use them. 😄

Hehe, yes they keep making small changes all the time as Inkscape evolves. Thanks for the update and stay awesome!

I actually never tried that ending before. I decided to stick to SGS because it felt like a sort of Southerner home, but I am sure that the next game will find a way to make the protagonist decide that it/he/she needs to go up North eventually. This is a really well crafted gem of a game with so many tweaks and quirks along the way, and every playthrough feels like its own journey.

Mostly, the last part of the video are my theories (outside the wiki around 03:20:00). I am sure that Underrail 2 will expand and offer new puzzle pieces for us to dwell on. All that I can say is that the developers are very meticulous and secretive, but their techniques are very advanced even for lore writers/connoisseurs. And yes, I have to narrate most of the Wiki in order to put in perspective how events and actions connect between each other in the grand scale of things.

@@inkscapepanda Can you please make video with only your theories and ideas? Who is 3rd godmen, what happened to Surface, this kind of staff.

@@user-gl2wt3qu3u To be honest, there is absolutely no information on those specific questions. There are just too many unknowns to build a hypothesis, let alone a theory. I am more than happy to review any information I might have missed about these factors, but personally I could not find anything conclusive.

It is indeed. I highly recommend people to play it on Dominating Difficulty (after they get comfortable with the first few playthroughs), since the combat for this level changes drastically and it becomes even more tricky to win. This difficulty also unlocks certain optional area that are not available on Normal.

The Expedition would have given me more advantages, and I wanted a challenge for this play through. But it did work out well in the end. The DLC is quite difficult in some areas (the training maze arena where the enemies are descending from the ceiling, for example). It can get scary rather quickly if you linger around for too long, as more and more squads will spawn inside the facility and they will eventually start barricading some pathways. Without stealth, it would be a slaughterhouse in there :D

Hehe, I know. It was a bit frustrating that all the good info about the lore was buried deep in the pages of the Internet. Plus the majority of casual players that described the game always said that the story was minimal.

Gracias ^_^
