Re: Xnormal - normal map seams, inverted??
thanks butthair, the tread around the high poly was flat but you were dead on about the smoothing groups. turns out world/object normal won't work in the engine anyway so i'm back to using tangents. being a noob i had a lot to work out. the main difference i found between the two normal map types are to do with smoothing… -
Re: Computer upgrade time! SSD advice?
ohh man... so funny story, I came back from a break this afternoon to nif my hard-drive crashing on windows load with a 0xc000000e Info: The boot selection failed because a required device is inaccessible. after repairing/messing with BCD edit. I tried putting the drive into another computer to see if it would even read.… -
Re: Crash_Site
The more I looked at the picture the more I thought it had to be intentional for it to be in a nest of some sort, hence that edit in my previous post. I do think this is a cool idea, and it does read as a nest. I think something like claw marks would be a nice touch, and also perhaps bend/break some of the surrounding… -
Re: Character Model: Hawk
Xena: Thanks, I agree the hands are not ideal for his figure. I had the feeling that I needed to change it during the process but I didn't take the initiative and now I'm kinda stuck =(.

Re: Hey anyone got any ideas?
I got my little brother a PS2 off of Ebay. It was having the dreaded disc-read-error, when we got it. Of course, that meant he got it for $120 with two good games.

Re: 3DS Max Triangle count

Turning on display as box or activating "override adaptive degradation" is also needed sometimes. Other workaround would be to break your object into multiple… -
Re: It's coming!!! Diablo3!!!
Yes, the internet gives you a voice. That does not mean that you should use it on every single pixel of information that crosses your self-indulgent eyes. I hate the ME! ME! ME! attitude the 'net enables. There is only Read/React it seems.. a scant 1% seem to have the cognitive capacity to think about things before their… -

Im terrible with words but let me show you an image and a few techniques I use to polish things. Hope that helps. Dont get stressed just… -
[Substrata] White Knight
Hey guys! I'm sure you have heard of the Substrata project Paul Richards is putting together (http://www.autodestruct.com/substrata.htm): "The Pitch : When Vigil Games dissolved shortly after the release of The Art of Darksiders II, I thought "What a shame that the contributing developers [now scattered to the four winds]… -
Re: Confused about moving forward
Take a break and meditate on what you really want to do in life. I've experienced something like this several years ago, and I think everybody enters a phase like this sometime in his/her life. My advice for you is to discover what keeps your fire burning. Maybe there are only certain aspects of 3D that captures your…
