Procedural gradient falloff shading for a simple path
I'm trying to build a system with which I can have any sort of geometry (mostly planes) the edges of which fade off into full transparency. Right now I'm simply using a black to white vertical ramp and mapping the corresponding faces to it white using a different shader on the 'path'. This has a few obvious issues: a) lots… -
[Maya] Lag on nVidia 460 card, but not on 480?
Yeah, built my system a few weeks ago. It's a Intel 2600K 3.4Ghz, 8Gigs of ram and a 460Gtx 768Mg card in it. And a SSD 64Gb as system drive. Now i got this super annoying lag when i select something in Maya viewport. It's a bit random but 3/10 times i get a lag when i select anything in the viewport. Ofc i tried to change… -
Learning Scaleform 4 (AS3) quick and easy?
Hello! I'm working with several friends on a game and they gave me the task of creating a custom HUD for it. I'm no fan of Canvas HUDs limitations so I thought it would be a good idea to make a Scaleform one instead. Problem is: I've never used Scaleform and am having a very hard time finding beginners tutorials for it.… -
A few questions from blender beginner

Re: Need new PC - Workstation recommendations?
If you want to go with a branded workstation then the HP Z series should be a safe bet. I guess you are aware that this series has been around for a few years now so you are not exactly buying bleeding edge tech. Also workstations usually contain a good deal of custom parts which would make replacements expensive or… -
Re: Adobe giving away CS 2 for free
^^ THIS ^^ It's still online as of 11pm EST. No notice of how it's for registered users only. Just "become a Creative Cloud member" advertisement, download links, and serial numbers. That's it. And putting the old school system requirements of XP and PPC makes it seem like they're so antique that you absolutely have to… -
Re: International 2014 - Postmortem
@Helenek Exactly, a specific digital item is assigned to a specific card with a number on it. Print a barcode on that card and scanning it will allow you to uniquely identify it. Then you set up a system whereby if it's scanned by the items creator, it gets tagged in the system as the 'upgraded' version of the item that… -
Re: Substance painter or designer?
The names are kind of confusing and not really self-explanatory. I would sum it up as follows: - In Designer, you design dynamic materials through a node based system, and you can apply them to regions of a model through an ID map. Meaning that Designer is not just a material creation tool - it can very well be used to… -
Re: [UDK] Sci-Fi Cathedral WIP
Oooookay here's an update. Yes I know I'm slow. :/ I was thinking to make it modular, I guess that's a good way to go since it's such a big scene and many parts can be used multiple times? I also alinged everything to a grid so it'll be easy to place it exactly like it once I get to UDK. Problem with that is, since I'm…
