Re: MEL: matrix creation
Matrices in Maya basically suck for that exact reason (can't be resized, must have fixed size at creation). Why not use an array of vectors instead? A vector is a good match for colours. Alternatively you can just use an array of floats 3x the size of # of verts. int $numVerts = `blah`;float $colArray[3*$numVerts];for… -
Re: bkost's improvement diary
Just wrapped up the Scapulo Humeral Rhythm study, I need to invest more time into understanding rotation and interaction between the Scapula, Humerus, and Clavicle. Here are the key points I've picked up during the workshop.. * Scapula rotation is determined by the humerus adduction. Once the humerus hits 30+ degrees… -
Re: Unity vs UDK etc
Actually you can't do realtime shadows on the iPhone with Unity just yet so as Richard says, theres very little need for the Pro license at all. One thing I notice is that a lot of Unity built iPhone titles are trying really hard to mask the fact that they run in Unity to avoid any attention from "the taxman". If you go on… -
Re: The Traub
Alright, so I've gotten a lot further with my low poly. I feel like I'm pretty close to being done and ready to start UVing, but before I do, I'd really like to get another round of critiques on it. I'm sitting at ~13k tris right now (a LOT more than I was expecting lol!) Unless someone has a better alternative, I've… -
Re: Stupid camera tricks
My dad used to be into photography like 20 years ago, and he brought his lenses from Ukraine. Left to right, soviet Zenith Tair-11A 135 mm f/2.8 soviet Arsenal (I think) Granit-11N 80-200 mm f/4.6 DDR Carl Zeiss Jena Flektogon 20mm f/2.8 all manual (obv) but it's still kinda fun to use them. Haven't really taken anything… -
Re: Conroe .vs. FX-62 (anandtech)
It's just like when AMD released their 64 bit line. It was a LOT cheaper and much faster. Now its Intel's time to shine for a while, and then AMD will most likely come out with something to stomp Intel in 2-3 years. I'll probably stick with my current rig for a while longer (AMD 3000+ stock 1.8ghz OCd to 2.7ghz on stock… -

Re: Getting paid!
There's no blanket answer here. Figure out what your hourly rate should be, then estimate how much time it should take to complete. Multiply time by 130% or so to cover revisions, etc. This is what you should charge. Make sure you know exactly what the client wants. Is it a simple model from a concept that they will… -

Re: sketching Materials?
I usually like to draw on bristol paper, right now I'm using Borden & Riley's #234 paris: bleedproof paper for pens. It's really smooth and withstands multiple erases without falling apart like ditto paper, has survived me taking a nap on top of my work without smudging or being otherwise damaged. I draw just about…
