thank you for your replay. I know it is realy limited im not sure if i will continue doing charakters or using hair and fur systems much, so for now i stick with this limied system build in 3ds :D . I will try your way, maybe that works, if its not good enough i could at least take the fibers as geometry thats the last way…
We had a multi-normalmap blending shader system at one place I worked recently, but it was very expensive, since it basically had to apply lighting multiple times and render the surface multiple times. It was more of a generic system than a specifically-tuned one, so it was a bit unoptimized. I would second the suggestion…
When displaying my models the most important thing to me is the lighting. The system should allow for multiple lights, 3+ and allow them to be placed quite a bit easier. I fumbled around for a bit trying to get the rotation/orientation of the lights to be what I wanted, but eventually gave up. + Better system for placing…
Dang, everything has gone up since last I checked. It's 100 dollars, but honestly it's the best lens for dollar you can get for any system (all the systems have a cheap, sub-f/2 50mm) http://www.amazon.com/Canon-50mm-1-8-Camera-Lens/dp/B00007E7JU/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1261608985&sr=8-1
SketchRetopo uses Zenity (https://live.gnome.org/Zenity) to show various kinds of dialog boxes (e.g., file chooser). An installer for Windows (zenity-2.28.0_win32-3.exe) is included in the package (which can also be downloaded from http://www.placella.com/software/zenity/). For Windows users, make sure that the system…
I don't see why people are saying UT doesn't scale well - I have one of your "older spec" systems (1.3Ghz, GeForce2 Ultra) and UT2k4 runs great on my machine. Probably doesn't look as nice as some other systems, but it runs just fine. Sometimes in huge onslaught maps you can notice it start to slow down a bit, but still…
Maya has never crashed for me, Max used to crash alot when I was working with 1 million tris exported from autocad back in version 6. usually I have photoshop, Maya, Max and Ue3 open and the all work together pretty well. System configurations are different so the software is designed to probably work on most peoples…
In the same sort of vein, having the flu or the cold can get you coldsores (as long as you contracted the virus) - the HSV1 can lie dormant in your system for years, and the cold or flu brings your immune system down low enough for the virus to make itself known. The cold/flu isn't directly responsible for the pus blisters…
Yes but if steam does it first and people like it, then they might start to expect it from others. We all know in the back of our minds that the next set of consoles are going to be based around a digital download system for games(this too might kill stores like gamestop). So if a system like this were put in place by…
This just strikes me as another example of people expecting the government to do what the parents should be doing. I'm fine with a rating system, to help parents identify games that may not be appropriate. It should not get to a point where game content is filtered. Put a rating on it, and leave it as is. I do think the…
