hello, i'm having trouble downloading/loading images when i'm on my web browser (chrome/firefox). 80% of the time images load fine, but the rest of the time i get images that look like this (broken image icon) (weird noise) im also having trouble downloading big files (for example i couldn't download the recent quixel…
http://www.joystiq.com/2009/02/04/rumor-more-layoffs-at-mythic-senior-designers-affected/ "Joystiq has learned from several well-placed sources that a second round -- a much more serious round -- of layoffs has struck Mythic Entertainment. These cuts go further and deeper than the last round, which saw several members of…
I'm having a bit of a problem with baking a normal map of an object. LowPolyCylinder is just a simple 18 sided cylinder, no modifications. HighPolyCylinder is a 48 sided cylinder with both the top and bottom edges chamfered 1.3 with 3 segments. I've tried to bake HighPolyCylinder onto LowPolyCylinder (I unwrapped…
In the catagory Best Picture: Babel The Departed Letters from Iwo Jima Little Miss Sunshine The Queen I loved 'The Departed'. After seeing it I was hoping for it to be nomiated. As well I think it's time to award Martin Scorsese his first Oscar....A miracle he didn't get one earlier. In the catagory Achievement…
Well, it seems that FEAR multiplayer has been re-named to "FEAR Combat" and is being released as a free download. I'm a fan of the game, but never have really played the multiplayer. I always thought that the singleplayer was the main selling point of the game anyways.. http://www.fearfans.com/newsitems/103/…
Hiya! I'm having some serious quixel app issues. 3Do does not display the materials at all. Its just a chrome/fully reflective material. I'm left with using cross-app mode. After getting it to work correctly 1/2 times, I've tried to reopen a project, and its completely broken. This morning the beta period expired, and I…
I think it can depend on exactly what kind of 3D you do. This type of extreme "crunch" seems to only happen at AAA studios where your job is to create 138 different assets for a single level. You're a very specific cog in the machine at that point. On the other hand I know 3D modellers who work for large UI/UX design…
Just FYI, if you're in the US or western Europe, $130 a day is a really low rate. The answer to your issue is to work smarter not harder. Break down your workflow and see where most of the time is going. Log how much time you spend doing each task. Then, look into how you can cut that time down, where you can automate…
hey kmactastic, thanks for the feedback :) generelly I want to have more topology (and more texture space) on her upper body than on the lower, because of the Cameraperspective. Ingame most hands are so tiny that you can barely tell if they are boxy or not, exspecally with the black outline they would get ingame, but since…
Snader: Right now, I am sitting at 13k quads, 26k tris. This is not counting the piping and tech that I will be adding near the wheels. However the majority of that will be 4-5 sided cylinders so they may not add up to much. I would like to keep it under 30-35k tris if at all possible. I don't think that's too bad for a…
