Re: Is Apple acquiring Sony and EA?
Snow leopard is 29 dollars. OSX generally costs 129. Snow leopard only costs 29. I am guessing the next OSX (Lion) will cost 129 again. As for mac hardware, well that is disputable. Yes their products often costs more money, but you get certain things that you don't with regular computers. These things may ore may not be… -
Re: Need help with new PC (currently: Notebook from 2007)
Sure about the cooler? From what I read, the stock coolers are not that good and loud. I´ve changed the cooler to a cheaper one. And currently I am using an external 1TB that has 230gb left, so 2TB is fine. But I´ve changed the i7 to a Xeon 1230 v2, is that ok? It saves me 50€s. -

Max displays normal maps incorrectly, when using nitrous direct3d.
First post. Let me use this oppertunity to say that this community is awesome and I appreciate the honest feedback people get. So, ever since a hard drive reformat and subsequent re-installing of everything I have the issue that Max 2016 displays my normal incorrectly - but only when using hardware shading. When I'm using… -
I got my dream computer. Here's how that went bad for me
This is going to sound like I'm gloating, I'm sorry about that. I am not posting this to rub it in anyone's face, but to tell you about some of the pitfalls of "The Thing That Should Not Be". Uh...? Specks I guess. Yeah, wait no. So in April of 2024 my beloved gramma died at the age of 92, of not wanting to live any… -

Re: How Do You Make a Flow Map?
Good! Close enough! But not quite right (I think)... So here is my solution... As you said we need to save the lower 8-bit and the higher 8-bit to different files in order to mix them back together in Unreal. In order to to do this, open up the original 16-bit vectormap and simply go to Image/Adjustments Levels. First… -
Re: Motivation and Frustration with Progressing
When attempting a task: If it's too easy it'll be utter boredom, you won't be motivated, If it's well within your comfort zone you'll be a bit bored and won't learn anything by doing the task. At this point it's just work. If it's challenging and right at your current level of skill you'll feel great as you make progress… -
Re: Character art - The World of Lexica
Someone was asking about the character specs in the game-artist.net forums, so I thought it may be useful for folks here as well if interested. Since Lexica is a mobile game, many of the assets were pretty low res. So here are some specs for ya on characters.. Triangle count: most around 2300 tris - sculpted a high res…
