For such object you don't need Hi poly at all. Just "rounded corners', "bevel" or whatever it may be called shader. Almost evry 3d package or offline renderer has one. Arnold does for example. No cage necessary, no troubles with ray missing .
Wow great collection there; I myself have also modelled an S7 - may i ask what materials you used for that nice render? Ive only used mental ray so far and the difference between your vray render is phenomenal!
Can you verify that your high and low poly meshes match up? If they are not aligned correctly the ray-tracer may be hitting something unexpected. Also double check that for each group, there is a high and low poly mesh assigned and that those meshes are correct.
I'm sure by now, you are tired of me "trolling" around these forums. I have caused a lot of trouble here, and I am here to make up for my immaturity . Out of all my pathetic attempts at creating something "worthy," I learned that I don't have what it takes to be anything of use for 3D Modeling or graphic arts. However, I…
These are my price points for consoles: I'll pay $60 for Metal Gear, Final Fantasy and Resident Evil. Those are the three series I have enjoyed most over the years and have sparked my imagination in so many ways. They have high production values and wow me. (Wow factor: that's the key point.) These games give me an…
http://www.bit-tech.net/columns/2006/01/22/all_for_one/1.html In my opinion a spot-on article about the tech being released these days. I mean, when we got our new cell phones... i really just wanted a good quality phone without any wizz-bang features... no dice. Had to get one with camera and verizon's damn 'get it now'…
why not just block out the ports and see how long it takes until Mr. X asks why he can't connect to his Bay anymore? oh and if you have a wlan access in your office you may also check what the kids in the playground are doing (I used to search for open wlan spots when I was on vacation with parents back in the day)...
What if you plan for 6mo and it takes 9 or a year? What if you decided not to live in abject poverty with 7 other neck beards who can't wash a dish to save their life? How cool is going to be when you move back in with those guys and they drink all your beer, eat all your food and puke on your couch? How is it going to…
Just to throw this out there but have you looked at the Dell factory outlet or even Dell at all? I know most people hate Dell but to be honest with you I have had nothing but good results from them. I got a top of the line XPS 700 from them about 2 years ago and drop BIG $$$ on it but I had one of the best Direct X 9.0 PCs…
