Re: TGA thumbnails in Win 7?
@perna: in short: its the same reason why I choose WinRar over the default build in windows zip thing. The long answer: maybe that initial step is a extra one but after that it makes a lot sense to me. Like xnView starts whenever I click for the first time on a image and it opens it with a snap 100% not resized in a… -
Re: what exactly is an environmental map?
Squid cube mapping can be used as a reflection map but not all environment maps have to be done that way. Like others said in the thread an enviornment map is just an image that is used to create reflections. Per128 and Eric explained how the software wraps this image around the scene to create the illusion of real… -
Re: BRAWL2 [Character] R&M, iam717
Me to! IF had i see that before making a thread i probably wouldn't just entered that(dice) super easy character instead of all this above(thread entries). =) Progress slow going but going, some tests also. "squared it all" strategically also, still have to "cross examine it all still", but otherwise "working for tests".… -

Re: My profolio site.
Hey Vig you beat me to it. The problem with framesets is that they are hard to bookmark and spiders can't get to them. Just make a table for your site. The easiest way to do this if you can't see it in your head is either lay it out on paper or in Photoshop with layers or both. Write down on the image how many cells and… -

Re: explain it to me like I am 5, what is a floating point render engine
Disclaimer: While I'm a programmer, I haven't written a "proper" render engine. Some of what I say is from my own experience, and therefore may be less than 100% true. With that said... First off, one thing that we should be clear on with half/float/doubles are approximations of decimal numbers. Computers don't really have… -
Re: FAQ: How u make dem mats? Hands-on mini-tuts for making materials and texturing
To avoid derailing Adam's thread I'm moving this discussion over here. I'll tackle these one at a time. These 3 are somewhat linked. To really answer this we need to talk about image formats and bit depth, so this is going to get a bit computer sciency, but read through it. We're all better artists for knowing how our…
