![]() ![]() The simplest mantra to follow to gain the benefits of an MVP is that you are looking to build the simplest product that you can test to see if the product should have been built in the first place. You can gain a competitive advantage if other companies are contemplating entering the market you are focusing on. You can go to market faster and thus, theoretically, start to raise sales revenues faster than if you develop the fully featured final product for launch. You can minimize the number of wasted hours spent by your development team by focusing on a minimal number of features for launch. ![]() You can accelerate the team’s learning regarding what the customer actually wants/needs whilst using rapid iteration to deliver that. You can test your understanding of whether the product is needed without having to use a huge amount of resources to develop the full product. There are several key benefits of using an MVP process these apply not just to the design team but also to the company at large and any investors (if they are present): Minimum Viable Product: Build a slice across, instead of one layer at a time What are the Benefits of Using an MVP process for design?

The MVP is thus a short-hand expression for a process that is dedicated to making new products that will be sold to customers. This group will be used to obtain feedback on the MVP and determine the strategic direction of further product development. This will often be a highly-selective group with potential to become early adopters and thus more forgiving of a product’s short comings than those who attach themselves to more established technology. In general practice it’s also important for the team to define what the customer group will be. It’s all about transport not concepts to the user. The concept of value is vital to the MVP strategy – a wheel has no value to a user but a skateboard does. Copyright terms and licence: All rights reserved However, the most popular definition is “The smallest thing that you can build that delivers customer value (and as a bonus captures some of the value back).”Īuthor/Copyright holder: Henrik Kniberg. The simplest definition is that an MVP must be the simplest core feature set of any product that allows it to be deployed and absolutely nothing more. The term itself was coined by Frank Robinson but was made popular by two influential names in product design – Steve Blank, a serial-entrepreneur and academic, and Eric Ries, the pioneer of the Lean Startup movement. The idea of the minimum viable product (MVP) has been around for some time. ![]()

This is annoying for consumers since you can’t be sure of which product you’re getting, but it’s a pretty common thing to find with products from brands as big as Neutrogena since they tailor their ingredients list to the regulations and preferences of different countries: European skincare formulation regulations ban or restrict a lot of ingredients and concentrations commonly used in the US for example. The catch is that although there are two products, there’s actually a couple of different ingredient lists, only one for the Oil-free acne wash, but at least more than 2 for the visibly clear pink grapefruit one. ![]() ![]() They also look the same, and from my understanding, the first one is marketed towards US demographics while the second one towards Europe and Middle Eastern ones.

I can make them happen pretty consistently, but I'm still not entirely sure why they're happening, it's super bogus. There are a few really weird things happening. So I updated to the newest version of the Texture Packer importer and updated Unity to 2021.2.8 today and after adding a new sprite to an existing texture atlas, somethings are not behaving as they should. And they don't even have to be referred to in the tpsheet file because they can be manually assigned to material in unity It's possible most people won't need this feature but it seems to be a pretty simple thing to implement - to add multiple atlas variants instead having just one for normal maps. In a case where I would want to have emission maps and normal maps (or more types) for my sprites then I woud have a problem. If I don't remove the line that's pointoing to the second atlas it will automatically set it to normal map in Unity and it won't let me change it without editing the tpsheet file and reimporting the atlas. Right now it's not a problem because I can pack it and then delete one line from the tpsheet file and it works. The thing is - there are more types of atlases that would be helpful to have.įor example, I use second atlas to pack the emission map sprites. It's awesome that there is an option to pack a second set of sprites with the same layout but this option needs to be updated - currently it only supports one extra atlas variant and it's arbitrarily treated as a normal map. png files twice because we now know the png to sheet assignment upfront. It also speeds up the next import because we don't have to process the. This is why we need the database to retain that knowledge. Unity might kill the importer during the import process if memory is low or for whatever other reason. png file with the content of the sheet (which requires importing the png twice). png is associated with it and then re-import the. ![]() If the name is not the same we have to read the. As long as both have the same name everything is fine. The issue is the following: We have to know the content of the. You can use the attached importer DLL - it comes with a more explicit error message - and avoids writing the file if nothing is really changed. ![]() tpsheet files do not have the same file name and path. The disadvantage is that (re-)imports might be slower if your sprite sheets (.png) and the. I though the issue was solved with this.Īnother solution is not to check-in that file and ignore it in your source code management system so that it is writable. So I mentioned yesterday that I’ve been working on a small tech demo in Unity, to help make sure I notice all the difficulties that can come up with Sprite Lamp, and the first one that has presented itself is the issue of animating with multiple (sets of) sprite sheets.I've suggested to make it writable and never heard back from you. A few people asked me about this already but I didn’t quite have my head in the game enough to give good answers. Hopefully now that I’ve played with it a bit more directly, I can do better. Oh and before I go on, a quick annoying reminder that Sprite Lamp is at 30% off on Steam as I write this! Animations with a single sprite sheet Here’s the script referenced in this post. The simple situation for frame animation in Unity is one big sprite sheet. This is, I suspect, reasonably common – especially with people working with pixel art, and textures going up to 4096×4096. Someone in this situation who wants to use Sprite Lamp is in a pretty easy situation in terms of programming – essentially, everything just works easily. You’ll want to make a sprite sheet of the diffuse channel, cut it up with Unity’s sprite editor, create animations, and apply them to a game object with an animation controller. Then, you’ll want to create a corresponding normal map sprite sheet with Sprite Lamp (either using whatever texture packer tool you want, though be wary of rotating normal maps, or by drawing the lighting profiles in sprite sheet positions then processing them all at once). You don’t need to cut this up into sprites in Unity after you’ve imported it. ![]() Then, apply a Sprite Lamp (or other) material to your game object, drag the normal map sprite sheet into the NormalDepth slot, and everything should be fine. ![]() ![]() ![]() In 2005, Ackles joined the cast of the WB show horror/ action series Supernatural where he starred as Dean Winchester.

The car calls for 3.7 quarts of 0W-20, I filled it with Mobil 1 0W-20 AE at the last engine oil interval, 4 quarts even drained from the oil pan, this 1.5L Turbo is diluting the oil with fuel I assume. I'm not convinced the non OEM stuff is specific enough for this tranny but I'll be monitoring how the recommended Castrol and others perform in this make/model via others on this forum. I paid $10.80 per quart at my local dealership. I will change the tranny oil every 30,000 miles as it is a fairly easy job. Weird I know, guessing it was overfilled from the factory.

You can then pull it out a little to control how fast it comes out.Īfter that and a bit of cleanup, it was four quarts of HCF-2 in, start it up and run it through the gears, then remove the check plug to get the proper level. Honda now wants an additional early differential fluid change at 14k miles. It is still valid with todays vechicals with one exception. However you can download this manual and use the schedule in it. so for mainteance the manual says to change the fluid every 25k. I hear lots of things regarding this cvt transmission, its the first in our house. I plan on keeping it for over 100k miles if possible.

Changed Transmission and Differential Fluids. Since the car needs to be flat and most people don't have lifts in their driveways, I found it easier to loosen the drain plug first from underneath, then slide the drain pan under, then use a short 3/8" extension in the plug for something to hold onto and remove it through the engine bay. The procedure was 'different' but easy, the hardest part being the need to have it on flat ground for it to drain completely and also for filling it accurately.

The reason: it will protect the electronic components in your Jeep from burning up. This is equally true even if you do have a replay. A quick note: I would also recommend adding a fuse to the chain. Turn the switch on, and the lights should come up. This is important: don’t use the stock wires, as they’re not heavy enough to handle the load. Finishing up, place the anode and cathode according to the diagram, and that’s pretty much it. Make sure you did a good job with the soldering tool. Next, I want you to connect the fog lights (or, rather, their cathode) to the power supply. Then, use a soldering tool to “bond” one of the switch terminals to a resistor via a piece of wire.Īnother wire should connect the 2 nd switch terminal to the power supply’s positive terminal. So, start by setting it in the “off” position. Switches are great at breaking and making electrical circuits, and that’s what makes them a strong alternative to relays. These are available both locally and online for $10-15. Now, most switches come as part of a wiring harness. Obviously, for this to work, you’ll need a switch. Just provide the voltage and wattage levels of your power supply and lights. This shouldn’t be hard: if you’re having difficulties, ask the staff member to help you out. ![]() Again, it’s imperative for the resistor to match your setup. Make sure the supply has more voltage than the collective voltage of every single fog light in the chain. Otherwise, you’ll have a problem on your hands (you might even end up damaging the electronics). The #1 goal here is to find a unit that can “handle” the voltage and wattage of those lights. Once you’ve selected a suitable pack of lights, focus on finding the right power supply. Getting StartedĪs I already mentioned, it is very well possible to wire a set of fog lights and to make them work without any relays. All the schematic is good for is some guidance, a way to make sure you’re doing everything right. Just don’t expect it to do the work for you. There are lots of free websites where you can find the right diagram (Pinterest, for example). The best way to get it is to Google for it. It’s always easier to get everything right when you’ve got a diagram on a piece of paper or a screen to guide you. Where can you find a Proper Wiring Diagram? Slow to respond – take forever to turn the fog/LED lights on and off.Relays don’t have proper protection against wearing, tearing, and cracks.Prevents wires from melting by handling high-powered fog lights.Safe and reliable: prevents overheating of the individual components.Very efficient at controlling the electric flow/current.Right now, let’s quickly check out the advantages and disadvantages of a relay: We’ll talk about that in more detail soon. There are, of course, alternatives to relays. And, when you’re, say, trying to wire a set of fog lights, it’s imperative to get the right resistance, voltage, and current. In simple words, it’s got only one job: to control the electricity levels in a high-current circuit and prevent spikes. The first thing that we need to figure out is the purpose of a relay.
