Re: Creating icons for Maya 2009
They have to be .DIB or .XPM format. I usually convert TGAs to XPM using Autodesk's "imgcvt" utility that comes with Maya.

Re: Is making Zbrush characters supposed to be fun?
To be fair even though the sky is the limit in terms of level of detail and rendering quality, I think it's fair to say that the process itself can be painful at times ... especially when it comes to certain tools.

Re: Problem in Mudbox.
if you post error messages quote the whole message to the letter. you may leave out something that means something important. your second error message sounds to short. i would guess you are running on an older version of windows? maybe your running a 32 bit version of mudbox on a 64bit os. the first message, i have no… -
Re: Can pirated software destroy a company?
Here's your established policy stuff. How much would it take? If a small company of around 100 employees all used the same copy of XP and Office, or they were an effects house who all used cracked copies of MAX, something like that. Then the software publisher would have to get wind of it, and in the case of around 100… -
Re: Vertical Mouse? any tips for painful hands
Almost all 3d software require the user to hold down a click in order to move a component. This doesn't sound like much, but it is extremely stressing to the hands. Even worse when MMB is involved.

Hipster Zombie - Plants VS Zombies
Art test for a job application. I was asked to do a 3D character in the same art style as the ones in Plants VS Zombies. I was also asked to come up with my own zombie type so I went for a Hipster zombie. I thought that could be a pretty fun character to make. I have a strong preference for hard-surface modelling and…
