Re: Calculating texture sizes / graphics card requirements.
Memory never means 'Hard-Drive'; a Hard-Drive is 'Storage'. It is how much space these textures will occupy in video card memory with the given compression type. You'll need to monitor your given stats in the scene and make judgements for yourself. UDK gives you a lot of tools for this; you can check out things like… -
Re: misc. maxscript UV scripts/tools
Is it possible to make that tool work when multiple Objects are using the same UV Unwrap Modifier? While I can select single items and use the script for most functions, some of them would be so much better if they could be used on all objects at once, mainly the render UV Layout functions and the Normalize Shells function… -
Re: [iphone] - Holy Moly! Dragons
Oh yea X-Com, Vandal Hearts (PS1), Advance Wars, those would all be awesome! Space Hulk, Necromunda, Warhammer40k Chaos Gate, those would be awesome ported over too. I don't know if anyone ever played email X-Com or a game like it, but the way it worked was awesome. You would spend a few min taking your turn, then pass it… -
Re: Post job interview responses
"My experience has always been that of no reply = no." "In my experience, this is 100% par for the course." Yeah, I guess I was afraid of the answer, but deep down knew it. I am actually fairly thick skinned though, and this isn't an ego thing at all. It's entirely a convenience and logistical issue. I literally do have… -
Re: Lowpoly Normal Mapped Wolverine WIP
Ouch! I forgot about that almighty_gir. My excitement got me lost in a totally different dimension. Also I haven't read X-men since the early 80's when the Canadian John Byrne was the hottest comics artist and he revamped x-men into an ace story driven highlight of the month. Hey, perhaps it could be a Wolverine from one… -
Re: version 1.2.3
You can use letters like b for beta, a for alpha, rc for release candidate, there are probably others. Whole-number (x.) releases are usually substantial revisions (hence why companies like Autodesk have switched to a yearly name, instead of version number), and often break backwards compatibility. .x releases are usually… -
Re: PS CS2 + Cintiq + Vista64 = madness?
Might be stating the obvioius, but have you tried plugging the Cintiq into a different port? I haven't used one, but from my experience with my intuos3 and Painter X, I had lag and jitter issues with my Wacom in Painter X until I plugged the Wacom directly into the USB ports on the back of the tower, where before it was… -
Re: who 'ere uses a mac
Future's looking good for game art on OS X. You can get Zbrush, XNormal, Silo, Blender, and Photoshop running on it...The Maya port is dismal though, when it comes to viewport shaders, and general stability. I'm not too fond of it though. The OS hotkeys feel convoluted, you can't get under the hood, and Windows running on… -
Re: Roman Cistern WIP
Max's snap tool is the magnet with the 3 next to it (the other magnets are handy for scaling, rotating, etc). If you right click on this button, it'll bring up this menu box. You can adjust how you want snapes to work in the Snaps tab. I usually work in vertex. Under the options tab is Use Axis Constraints. This is handy… -
Re: 3DS Max 2010
Vig, I'm not terribly impressed with Maya's system either. It's much less flakey than Max's, but once you've got several hundred object referenced in, display issues are a huge deal without just calling proxies. Yah, I know that Maya (or Max) isn't supposed to be a level editor, but we've worked with a number of clients…
