Re: Of seams and shading artifacts/My brain is splitting at the seams
Right — now that I look closer at your images I can tell the problem you're having here is known as "zooming in too much". Normal maps are limited in what they can do; at extremely close limits you can see that a sharp edge is in fact a sharp edge. If it's too much of a problem, you add more geo (bevel the edge). This is… -
Re: Resolving Texture Edge Mismatch
Is there a new fashioned way? Such as the texture renderer being able to blur across edges as opposed to rendering them in sharp contrast? I'm less worried about the splotches on the skin but rather the color. I see a sharp edge of contrast along the colors and I'm definately looking for a solution on that. Right now I… -
Re: LCD tv gaming question.
I'm pretty sure that 720p is a newer standard than 1080i. The latter does have a higher resolution, but the signal is interlaced (meaning only half of the horizontal lines of resolution are displayed at a time, oscillating between even and odd lines of resolution several times a second to create the appearance of 1080… -
Re: Fleet: SDK
Yeah I've changed mine a little now (will post new pic later if I do some more work on it) and now it's smoother with more curvy designs like in the boots, and yeah it's an improvement. The chestplate was a cheap fill-in, I couldn't think of anything to put there and I still can't, but I'm scribbling on it and will… -
Re: Apple Ipad
A lot of photographers are interested in this. When doing paid shoots, most people do what's called "shooting tethered" DSLRs generate low res jpeg previews, and that's what you're looking at on the screen on the back. No way to tell if your 21 mp file is fully sharp and looks great on a 3" lcd, so they are either plugged… -
Re: Creating a modular bending tunnel for UT
Here's a quick and dirty version. I mocked it up with planes just because it's faster, but you can do it with whatever shape geo you want. This is all on a 10' grid. So you'll notice the pieces on the right are 10x10'. The Red Boxes show where each piece's pivot point is. I like keeping my Corner piece's pivots in the… -

Re: Inception mindfuck discussion *SPOILERS*
No problem, that was my interpretation of it, anyway. It might've had something to do with the fact that they were all "sharing" a dream by use of the sedative that puts them all to sleep and allows them to "share" dreams. It might be that limbo isn't entirely universal (shared even by those not sharing a chemical… -
Re: Alphas blurry on mesh!
The texture pixels are bigger than the pixels in the alpha so it is forced to average out the alpha when you stamp it on and that gives you the blurry look. There is no way you're going to get sharp edges on that text unless it has significantly higher texel density. If you're at 4k there and have about 16 pixels (at best)… -
Re: worst day ever
Sorry for your loss Mike. Pets occupy such a special place in our hearts. The pain of their loss is the price we have to pay for unconditional love I guess, but hold onto those 17.5 you got to share with Pinky. <3
