Re: Maya modelling help!
Or you could model one segment of the pie however you want, duplicate it and rotate it, then hit shift d a bunch of times. Take the number of subdivision you want in your pie and divide that by 360 to get the rotation value. -
Re: Whats blue channel for on a normal?
On the 360 the hardware will calc the value very fast, when using their special DXN format (two 8 bit channels). Basically the same size as a DXT1 texture, but double the bit depth, and almost free calculation of the third channel. -
Re: Gears of War 3 Gameplay Details!
awesome news....just too bad I wont be able to play it if they go the 360 only route like with the last one. That exclusivity deal with was a dumb move I think, could have sold a lot more units.... -
Re: Places to go in San Francisco?
No, dont go to Pier 39 kub. Check out Haight Ashbury If you haven't allready been. The top of Coit tower provides an amazing 360 degree panorama of the city. http://www.sfstation.com is a good 'whats on' city guide. -

mirror plane degrees in [maya]
I don't really understand how the mirror plane degrees option in the mirror tool works in maya as the 360 rotation degrees only work when the object is orientated towards -z. If not then messes up with the degrees. I think i'm missing somthing but don't get it. it's not very well documented too. -
Resident Evil 5 trailer thoughts
The trailer is up at all the game sites. Just wondering what everyone thought. It's apparetly being deved for the 360 and PS3. I hope the fast moving shadows translates really well into realtime and isn't just part of a cut scene. The setting is very cool. Not typical for a RE title. -
