Yup! A few people have asked for the ability to paste images onto their boards, which is actually really easy, in fact it's used by drag and drop. The trick comes in when saving a board with pasted images because there's no actual image file to refer to, it's just bitmap data that lives on your system's clipboard. I'd also…
SSD+Win7 will add a nice noticeable difference to the overall "snappiness" of your system, I did that with my Intel Q6600/8gb system(was using xp 64 previously) Upgrading to 8GB is a good idea too, esp if you're going to win7 64 bit. I would do SSD+Win7+new ram as a "quick fix" but you're still going to be looking at a…
I think this is looking really cool, but the one thing I wonder about, and this is sort of just a general observation about hand painted projects I typically see on Polycount. Often, it seems that a hand painted project goes hand in hand with a low poly asset. And I get that because in the past most games that did the hand…
Thanks guys, really glad you like it! This is actually a really good question. As stromberg mentions toolbag 1.09 offers a lot more than the quick previewer you get with dDo. dDo's previewer is great if you need to load a mesh and preview one texture set, however Marmoset Toolbag offers a lot more in terms of setting up…
The Blender foundation is founded by the Europen Community + the donation system that involve Valve and Epic Games (just to say a couple) it has at the moment 5 full-time developers. Even with this small team Blender is the faster growing software in the industry. Open-source is not a problem, mozilla is open-source, linux…
Ok so first off, I think its important to understand the basic fundamental point of PBR, that is that all lights and materials behave in a logical and consistant manner, which means no matter how you set up your lighting, the asset will be lit as correctly as possible. Its really a two part system, part 1 is the shaders…
No I use straight zbrush fibermesh. In the past I have used zbrush, then exported the fibermesh as curves. Then I would import the curves into Maya, and assign them Maya native HairSystem (nHair). I would use those controls to control the hair. For this project I wanted a larger volume of hair but more control, so I needed…
My sister and I both met our spouses via dating sites. She met her husband on Eharmony, which has a system I didn't care for. In theory, it does all the work of figuring out who you're compatible with and sending you the most likely matches - I didn't want that, but she's incredibly happy with her guy. I met my wife via…

Ok, how about I agree it's capable, but also agree that sony wont impliment this stuff right away. My points are that with a little creativity it could be used as an alternative to a purchace of a new PC and still have most of the functionality. My comments on the speed issue were based off the claim that using a single…
