This tool is fantastic! Now obviously its best suited for indie teams and large studios who don't have time to pencil in details, but I wouldn't use this tool for anything more than a learning tool personally. It's great at sort of teaching you what you need in order to communicate a material well. Its great how it breaks…
Thanks for the info Almighty_Gir! I have been looking at some models, which seem to have flat surfaces, however I see people opting to still slice the quad into 2 tri's. I know its probably a loaded question, but could you perhaps tell me why someone would opt to slice up quads into tri's ? Does this not require additional…
I doubt Blender would die from a buyout (and it wouldn't benefit much anyway). It would most likely be forked and supported by the heavy hobbyist Blender community as of current. A mess? Time will have to tell if that ever happens Also closed source projects dying is a worse matter when you deal with bitrot of no future…
bus speed will be affected regardless of the controller architecture. The controller architecture affects communication from cpu to memory, not other devices. It's still a bottleneck, and will still synch to lowest usable total bus speed. DDR memory is very cheap. This is a 10-15% increase in speed if he gets the highest…
The thing about Twitter that most people don't understand is that the reason it's a big deal is precisely because it's not a big deal. Setting up a blog, posting articles, managing facebook pages, moderating forums, promoting sites... these are all intensive processes. Facebook is actually pretty freaking complicated…
Polycount is important to me. I've met a lot of people on here who I've then met in real life. Those connections and relationships can develop into long lasting friendships, or at the very least, acquaintances whom can help you in the industry or just shoot the shit with in IRC or chat. Polycount is also a place where you…
I'm currently not working in the games industry and only have around 3 years of experience, but I occasionally dedicate some time to mentor students who want to become good in 3D art. Aside from having industry experience and an amazing portfolio, I think a good mentor must have excellent interpersonal skills to…
I just started reading the comics from the beginning again and found some parts we messed up on storyline wise. Lori tells Rick she's pregnant before they go to the Farm and even before they explore the empty housing community. Also as for why they skipped the housing community... I think as Mark said the cost wasn't worth…
