Re: ATI RADEON HD 5870 vew video card slow as shit?
Look before hating ATI by default. Have you done a clean install of the OS when you got the system? Or are you still running all the Dell installed items? I'm sure its fast. It can be faster without the bloatware if nothing else. Your also setting yourself up for more pain in the future when you have all the items you want… -
Re: [3dsmax] UVW seams to Smoothing Groups?
Here's a script "UV borders to hard edges". The algorithm is quite simple: 1) Select UV borders (used part of Renderhjs' script for Roadkill uwrapping) 2) Convert UV edges selection to EditPoly edges selection (Max is a real pain in the ass!) - my part of the script 3) Make smoothing groups in hard edges style (used script… -
Re: Portfolio Critique request
Thanks for taking the time to write that detailed feedback, It means alot to me. Yeah, everything you see was my own work. Bad drawings and all :D .

Re: Split loop/insert loop script in max
Ok I believe I got most of those bugs and some others I found all fixed! Found a better way of detecting if the edges got flipped by max so that should work.

Re: Weird normal maps outside Substance Painter & Bake glitch
Hi! Can you share files (lowpoly and highpoly) of an element showing the issue? If the zipped archive is small, you can attach it directly to a post, else host externally. Some renders showing broken shading in other applications reminds me of wrong normal map handedness, although you write you checked the green channel.… -
Re: Saints Row 3
I'm afraid I have to agree completely. Very glad I rented this one before buying. I couldn't even finish it... I think I got the general idea of the game by about an hour or two in. Basing my thoughts on the missions I had done, I guessed the rest of the game went something like this: Drive somewhere > Fight off 5 waves of… -
Re: State of the Industry: Why you should or should not give up.
I could say that "art is my dream" or "I was meant to do this" but really...I said I would do it so..I have to. That's basically my reason. That and I paid $100k for my school, and I don't know how to do anything else... But really, I'm just the kind of person that set goals for myself and so far everything has happened… -

sharethread - what do you preview normalmaps with
Hi all, I thought that with the increasing number of engines and standalone apps availlable it would be nice to a thread here where we could gather the different methods we use to preview lit normalmaps in realtime (renders banned!). Obviously in-engine solutions are always the best for studio work but I am mostly thinking…
