Re: Early-Late 2000s CGI/Game textures
Zbrush appeared around 1999 maybe or early 2000 after some Siggraph presentation or something. First it was almost purely 2,5 painter with ability to drop small meshes on 2,5D canvas . I recall I instantly suggested to buy it for $900 but our management refused saying why would we need this weird soft doing weird stuff… -

Re: Finally after 10 years of weekend work - NoseBound is out on Steam!
Congratulations for finishing your game, that's an awesome achievement! I like point-and-click and detective games, so I might give the demo a spin when I find the time.

Re: Microsoft buying an Indie games developer "Mojang" for $2 Billion
Microsoft shareholders should be lighting torches and sharpening pitchforks over this. 18,000 laid off, CSGs cut left and right, projects canceled, and they buy a brand that has all but run its course for TWO AND A HALF BILLION DOLLARS. Only the land of managers managing managers could be so monumentally stupid. They will… -
Re: Jacobethan Style Fountain WIP
Hey all, It looks like the recent Blender 2.5 builds have some sort of memory leak that is causing the problem i am having with rendering.

Re: Unlimited Detail
And now that the thread has completely derailed... Next you're going to tell me we have cars that run on electricity and go 0-60 in 3.7 seconds and can go 245 miles on a single charge... WHEN PIGS FLY! But seriously this and this are flying hover cars promised back in the 80-90's not this or this. In the 70's the flying…
