Being in Maya before it was released... I am always more comfortable/productive if there is a pipeline I can succesfully Maya-ize. now that cryengine3 SDK has been released I have yet to see anything with a direct connection to Maya released? Anyone know if such a pipeline was supposed to be anything other than crytek…
I would like to see more game play footage/angles. If my assumptions are correct, it'll be played from a top-down view like the other NWN games? The trailer was cool, but if it's a top-down game the cinematic suffered a bit from that :P I strongly believe the character and class building in D&D (Neverwinter Nights) was…
I agree, for most of my characters (I'm fairly hopeless at modeling believable weapons) i just place seams here and there and use LSCM, then I go in with a few manual tweaks in live UV mode. For weapons that I've texture I think that of course it's faster to try and place seams everywhere it is ****ing annoying to do and…
I do believe it was Vig - er, Mark Dygert - who told me "if you were my daughter, and a Gypsy had the last SSD in existence, your new name would be Tzipporah." I dumped more money into the SSD in my new rig when I got it in March than I did into RAM. I can add more RAM later... the SSD is worth its weight in gold.
That's because defercompression is only meant to defer----until save. It's meant for capturing high res --static-- images for use in cubemaps and render-to-textures and stuff, I believe. Post your UV layout and we can see if it's just that that's at fault or if it's something else. Unfortunately, you may just be butting up…
Ahh yea cool. Also keep in mind that just because its in the future doesn't mean everything was made that day. My keyboard is 3 years old and believe it or not some of the letters are starting to fade (shocking I know, with what little typing I do...) Like Sup pointed out you can gently use things a little, sometimes not…
Mop - Hahaha, I enjoyed watching an american tourist in the pub the other day positively swamp his ham sandwich in english mustard, clearly never having tasted it before and believing it to be like that yellow sauce stuff. He actually slumped, gripping the back of his neck where the mustard actually (no really) sears the…
I believe printscreen captures at you desktop resolution, so if you're working on a smaller screen it will be a smaller image. Also possible is that whatever image hosting site you're using is downsizing your images as you upload them, since most people (outside the art community) don't want 2000x1000 images of the family…
edit just read you ran memtest.. shouldnt post so early on saturday. Looks like your running your vid cards in sli. Try them single. Crashing when loading the games leads me to believe its something video related. What kinda of drives do you have ? Most manufacturers have diagnostic tools on there websites. Seagates…
Very nice - the Ground Control series are awesome games. The only crit that I have is that the diffuse map is sort of weak for the amount of detail this model has. I personaly think that if it were desaturated with perhaps some more accent colors in it the overall model would look a little more believable. Just my 2 cents…
