Re: Help me build my workstation system.
128 GB will be enough for your system drive if you are the type who chooses what to install carefully. if this is your only computer and you're going to try this and that app on it and generally do full installs of everything then it will fill up quickly. i have two win7 installs on a 256 SSD but i keep my windows squeaky… -

Re: Red Dead Redemption Room
Thanks for the comments! The bed is 3706 tris with a 2k texture (I am also going to fit another bed and pillows on that texture too). The lamps are 3504, 1128 and 958 respectively. They are all on 1 2k texture. Towards the end of the project I will possibly resize textures to make them smaller, if I can, without ruining… -
Re: UDK and Max are fighting over my normals...
yeah, transposing the normal direction is an artifact of compression... I ahd the same problem. That should fix it IF its coupled with enough edge padding. Depending on the size of your object, your mip levels could be affecting that too, so make sure there is enough padding so when it mips, its covered. A good rule of… -
Re: What is your ambition ¿ (Question)
HOLY SHIT U IS W1N!!!!111? I want to work on more AAA games... I've worked at small studios in the past making mediocre stuff. While it's good and all, it doesn't get the attention of big games. I like to see people enjoying the stuff I work on. Working at Turn10 was a start in that direction, so hopefully I can continue… -
Re: Desert wanderer
Its a mip-mapping issue. By default i think xnormal uses like the worst possible mipping. Try going into your 3d card settings, and forcing on anisotropic filtering, at like 2x or 4x or something, should fix the problem. Padding should also help, its not enough to just have it set to like 2 or something, if its getting… -

Re: Adjusting Monitors Gamma/contrast etc..
yeah you need a hardware colorimeter. Also in most cases you only degrade image quality by adjusting things on monitor. There is limited internal precision and its all targeted around factory default settings in the most vanilla mode the monitor has. Also don't use any 'calibration' software tool that involves your eyes or… -
Re: Improve details on older model
The R and G CHannel hold all the zdepth information you need. Just go into the channels and copy them into own layers. Now duplicate them and invert the duplicates. Now change the blending mode to something that suits your needs (lighten most of t he time does it for me) also, put another layer beneath the lowest one with…
