Re: Help me buy a new computer for rendering and gaming
Thanks for all the great info on motherboards everyone, Since last time I posted a friend recommended I check out this thread on PC powerplay forums which has been very helpful. At this stage I'm most likely going with the motherboard recommended for the $1500 build, the Gigabyte GA-P67A-UD4-B3. However I still have plenty… -
Re: Metal Knight
14 years old? That's excellent texture work for someone your age! I'm much older, and I still can't texture that well. I agree with some of the other posters. It wouldn't take much to learn some rudimentary 3D skills. If you prefer texture painting, you can still specialize in it. I certainly think you have the necessary… -
Re: New Computer time!
I can see that, those cases you linked to are great and if you're looking to shave a few bucks that's a smart move. You could probably sound proof them further on your own if you needed to. I would have to try them out to know for sure if they where as quite. I sort of doubt any of them come with sound proofing material… -
Re: Max 2010 Modeling tools - any early impressions?
I think you can rip it off and have it floating around. However it still behaves the same way not like polyboost. I'd like to try installing polyboost on 2010 and see if it works. I think the tools are pretty valuable even if the interface is a headache. You can also bind a key to toggle it on/off too as well as dock it… -

Re: RAGE
Some more tweaks you can do to help performance/issues RAGE currently does not have a menu option to turn V-sync on or off. If the graphics driver supports a so called "swap-tear" extension then RAGE will use it and RAGE will V-sync when running >= 60 FPS and RAGE will tear when < 60 FPS. Unfortunately at the release of… -
Re: Brushys Blog
Blog Entry #1 - Grass Objects For the past two weeks i've been working on vegetation. A slow process considering i'm overhauling everything! But I thought i'd start on the obvious and make some new grass. Step 1: The workflow for making my grass is a little time consuming initially. You start off by making a simple grass… -
Re: Looking to buy a new prebuilt pc suggestions?
My thoughts: 1. win XP 32 is almost dead(near complete EoL). On the other hand it cannot support more than 3,5Gb of RAM(with dirty tricks). x64 is superior in all the aspects. Vista also offers DX10 and video memory virtualization(which is VERY important when dealing with big meshes... and xp64 cannot do this). Some shops… -
Re: Summer Character Workshop - the SwordMaster
Day 3 - Proportions: Today we started blocking out the shapes of our base mesh in Zbrush. We discussed the importance of keeping scale and proportions when sculpting. This will make life much easier in many ways. We also discussed the value of having a good base mesh with the correct topology (but more of that on…
