Also I'm not sure if they switched all of the old weapons over to the new C model system but all new weapons have their animations handled differently. You might want to grab some more modern replacements for the rocket launcher and take a look at those. I seem to remember that fire, reload ect where all contained in some…
I've heard anecdotally many studios have ditched Xref/Containers and built their own systems. Just because the built-ins are so buggy. We created our own Xref system, at one studio I used to work for, because we used Max as our game level editor. We used dummies or simple proxy meshes which when exported would be replaced…
you can get comparable or technically better configurations for less money on the PC side as pre-built systems where youz can select from a variaty of configurations. running windows, so you end up with the platform most graphics software is actually being developed for and most tested on. you do need to know a bit about…
Thanks guys i had a friend show me how to do a quick app that handles that in visual studio, and it worked! Because maya wont let us use any other character other than "/" and some of the material names need to have "_", "wood_01" . We ended up using double "_" then used RegEx to find "usemtl" line in the obj. file to…
The problem with this debate is no matter what happens if the game is on both systems their will not be to much of a general difference. As we all saw the ps3 games seemed to have to much light but then again those were most likely all ports from the xbox360 version. We will be seeing the same issue when it is made for the…
[ QUOTE ] I believe, and I could be mistaken, if you used the restore disc from a pre-built system, it had the specific drivers for (what I assume was) a proprietary motherboard. The best thing to do would be pick up just a regular joe copy of XP and try again. [/ QUOTE ] yeah, the disc was from a prebuilt system, so thats…
Trenberth's views are clarified in the paper "An imperative for climate change planning: tracking Earth's global energy". We know the planet is continually heating due to increasing carbon dioxide but that surface temperature sometimes have short term cooling periods. This is due to internal variability and Trenberth was…
Hi there. Nice effort, both characters look to be coming along well. The damage system on the soldier works nicely, and will look great after a few tweaks. The sculpting on the soldier could do with being more asymmetrical. A few scars and blemishes, veins, etc. will definitely help with that. The trousers could do with…
Noobs to Pros I think is a false classification that is coming off as almost like elitism. Basically in part, because they all have such a wide class of talent level and specialty in each "level" of being the cg artisan. If there is a sense of respect for one another's skill, then it can work well. If not, then its doomed.…
If you are thinking of putting down that much cash for something you might as well take the time to research part and put one together yourself. Once you do, you will know how to upgrade in chuncks and you will never have to put down that much cash again. Your system will slowly upgrade as you need it in much easier to…
