Re: Robot: WIP Need Texture help
I can't seem to get the metal to look metallic enough. I'm not certain what to do about that at the moment. Other than that I think it's making some progress. I'm making this entirely in 3Ds Max 2008. Now, I am not familiar with advanced shaders. This particular scene is using MR Daylight and MR rendering, but nothing… -
Re: "The City of New Orleans Is Devastated"
[ QUOTE ] so, if i get this right guys, what you are saying is in fact that bush is actually the reason for the hurricane? [/ QUOTE ] No, what we are saying is that the intense flooding could have been prevented if the Bush administration had not cut funding to prevent the levee from breaking in the event of a level 4-5+… -
Re: handling bigger scenes in 3dsmax
what made me wonder is that noone mentioned proxies so far- sure they dont support bones and rigs but some of the proxy systems support mesh/voxel,...(or whatever they pull off behind) animation. check out the MR feature video of this page: http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/item?siteID=123112&id=11007364 here is another… -
Baby freeze - comicon 2010
Hello everybody! Here's my participation for the Comiccon Challenge 2010 on GameArtisans.org. For my entry I chose mr. Freeze. But this time I didn't want to just remake the character, I took a different path and make him as a baby. I still wanted to retain the classic look of mr. freeze portreyed in Batman comics. For… -
Re: Polycount Minecraft Server
Has anyone else had this issue? Both myself and my Mrs have been getting the same problem around x 285, z -90 ish- neither of us can move more than half a metre every couple of seconds- I hit F3 and saw that the memory allocation is on 99%. I managed to get out of the dodgy area but got stuck again trying to direct my Mrs… -
Re: Anvil - testing out Ddo
Thanks for the input everyone! Mr Significant- I hear what you're saying about the hammer. Originally i was going to make a much older and worn down handle but I liked the way it shined, kind of felt like a varnished surface. But when I really think about it a shiny varnished handled doesn't really match the scene. So I… -
Re: I need some buying advice concerning 3D applications and hardware
If your worried about price, Autodesk and Adobe both charge 'premiums' for commercial license's if your outside the US. 3ds Max is nearly 1/3 more in price in the UK compared to US, so my advise would be look at the other non autodesk applications if your not getting a student license. Vray is good for ease of use, but MR… -
Re: Clash of the Titans
I thought it was just really mediocre. I don't hold the original up as a classic - there are some great moments but it's pretty slow - so I didn't feel offended by this redux. It wasn't as terrible as something like 2012 or as obnoxious and annoying as 300, it was just really generic and flat - blockbuster movie making by… -
Re: Palin interview, better than a nip slip
Would you rather Mrs. Palin act pedantic and constantly not answer questions like Mr. Obama? What has he done, what makes him qualified to be President? I like neither option for President, but I'd much rather have McCain in office than just-as-inexperienced-as-Palin Barack Hussein Obama. What has Obama accomplished?… -
"It doesn't have to suck" - Mike Acton (Insomniac Games) artcle
Giving props to mr Pedro (Bitmap) for this link, but I figured it deserves to be re-posted here at polycount (unless it already has, if so, I'm sorry). http://insomniacgames.com/blogcast/blog/mike_acton/152561295 Mike Acton has written this awesome and informative article addressing some topics / ideas that he thinks can…
