I do like coffee, but I try to limit how much I drink as I don't think my digestive system appreciates it in large doses. I prefer a good ol' mug of tea and a Hobnob or two, if you're offering. I've smuggled a box of Twinings English Breakfast into the US and I intend to continue to drink it religiously at 11 and 3 just as…
I originally built this site as a photography portfolio and I am using image swaps to change content on each page. This works well for showing photographs but makes descriptions and supplemental images difficult to insert. I am considering moving to a very simple horizontal scroll format for my portfolio instead. I know…
Everything created and developed evolved around the consciousness. Thories and Logic are excellent tools. Brainstorming is essential to anyform of creation. There will be a day when Computers will thing for themselves, perhaps create things on there own. Since the world is rapidly advancing' there is no question about this…
(Amateur lawyer hat) if you signed it then I think it's legally binding under most systems of common law, whether you read it or not, whether you thought it was serious or not. (Fellow modder hat) they're a freakin' mod, it's your work, and they won't waste the time to sue you for breach of contract (what monetary…
Mmm multiple endings.. potential replay value.. though is hokey like deus ex with basically the end level making that choice, or is it what you do along the way that influences it like Slient Hill2? EQ, if Im stuck with a widscreen and a 6800 gt, should I stay away until I get a better system since you said its fps aren't…
Thanks man! I just tried rendering it with turbosmooth on a while a go but I'm having an error and it says not enough memory. Still have to figure it out. **edit: Well, actually this is the problem I'm encountering. I'm using X-Convict's render set-up and material. I have a 32bit system, 3g of ram and a core2duo which I…
Well, I'm using windows xp64 so i get good use out of my 4 gigs of ram. My concern is the tiny bugs xp64 has that annoy me. My OS has made my icons turn into black squares, and when surfing the net but links have turned into black rectangles. Also, I heard windows xo64 isn't a true 64bit operating system, i was wondering…
I worked at a blockbuster last summer. The online thing is great, way better than the netflix deal my parents used to use. Its the same price, but you also get a free instore rental every week that works on games which would normally be $8.99..or 6.99 cant remember but its in that ballpark. movies were 4.23 tax included..…
It's nice-ish. It creates a rig that works specifically with HumanIK which is Motion Builder (lite) stuffed into Maya. I like HumanIK / MB for retargeting from one rig to another, recording and cleaning up mocap as well as blending animations together, or if you need one rig to drive another one, like a character picking…
Noobs to Pros I think is a false classification that is coming off as almost like elitism. Basically in part, because they all have such a wide class of talent level and specialty in each "level" of being the cg artisan. If there is a sense of respect for one another's skill, then it can work well. If not, then its doomed.…
