Thanks for the advice, yeah I know the gfx card isnt amazingly important but as Ive had integrated graphics before I prefer some real gfx power. Have been advised to check out the Acer Aspire 6930 Gemstone Blue which seems to do most things Id like and seems to be a nice price (just shy of £600), anybody got any experience…
I used Maya Paint Effects for hair for my Sam character and it only translated to about 60k tris, which was quite manageable and easy to convert, so I'm not sure if Max has anything similar to PFX that you could play with. But I think I've seen that done with Max too. You might want to look at this. I would have sworn…
Yes I remember that and it pissed me off every time I looked in the tv guide back in the 80's to watch the ghost busters cartoon I was always tricked and that shitty show would appear. Also I remember Peter Venkmen's voice sounding like the garfield cartoon voice actor. Can anyone confirm or deny this? Watch the video…
This thread reminds me of Hardcore Gaming 101. Off the top of my head here's a few games I'd like to see remade or get new entries in their series. Air Fortress Bushido Blade General Chaos Gunstar Heroes Jet Set Radio King of The Monsters Mutant League Football (well...yeah.) Rival Schools River City Ransom Road Rash…
I didn't realise the SDK was only for mac. Still, I guess that makes sense as the iPhone OS is a stripped down version of OSX 10.5 anyway. Most phones cost you more than $300, you just don't notice it because you are swallowing the cost via monthly payments. I paid $600 over two years for my hunk or crap that doesn't even…
HAHAHA pst armagon, marketing 101. try posting about your petition over at gamespot, you'll have no trouble filling it up with e-mail addresses there. they're dropping priceless bombs like "ID aiming for a T rating. Gaming = dead." T RATING = YOU SOLD YOURSELFS SHAME ON YOU the rest is uber cool" It's the end of the work…
:)Hey guys, I did this quick sculpt, a day or so of work. I'd be interested in some C&C if you guys dont mind. This is basically what the title of the thread suggests: A young squire who wants to go on big adventures but isn't ready for it. I might have to revise some proportions. I intend to drop this guy in Marmo. He's…
As you can see by my many other threads I ask many questions. But I am a student and I am learning. QUESTION: I want to buy a new computer for my Maya modelling and animation. ALSO I need a suitable machine for rendering my models (not massive films long worth but still long). I have a budget of around 600-700 pounds. I…
Not having modelled a character before I thought it was about time I started practicing. I was aiming for the sub 600 tris mark when I started. I will be texturing it, which I suck at, rigging then animating it, not having done any real animating before it should be interesting. Any feed back on proportions, topology or…
I can't draw. To get into the practice of drawing, I'm going to draw a pokemon every day for 30-60 minutes until I'm done the first 151. Critics are welcome. Day 001. Bulbasaur. First one on the list! I probably should've spent some more time refining my lines/cleaning things up a bit. I'm not entire sure whats up with my…
