Re: Freelancing with pirated software
but so far zbrush has always been free in updates. for my personal license, which i won in 2004, i didnt have to pay a single cent. but even if i bought it back then, that would be 16 years of usuage now. at it's current ~900 USD that would be ~60 Dollar a year, or 5 dollar a month so far. considering that and that i do… -
Re: Ruger Mini 14 Progress Thread
Pretty much any workflow that reduces modeling time. B) - If I can get away with automating 90% of the low poly, then I'll use that. I really like Decimate: Planar in Blender in this regard. - If I can bash high poly objects together and throw them into ZBrush/Blender for Dynamesh/remeshing, then I'd much prefer to do that… -
Re: Does chasing a career in gaming make anyone else feel like the industry is toxic?
For me, the sacrifice is worth it. It was either bust ass doing what I loved on the side with a dream fueling me or give in to continuing to break my back with manual labor or service jobs. Edit: I should add that I was working full time, doing 30-60 hours weeks of study on top, with a toddler. If you want it bad enough,… -

Re: SSD?
You can find good 256GB SSDs for $100, I'd say it's definitely worth it to grab one over a 128GB at that price, it's kinda a sweet spot. The Crucial MX100 256GB was $99 2 weeks ago. And here's a few similar deals http://slickdeals.net/f/7173308-sandisk-ultra-ii-240gb-sata-iii-ssd-95ac-tigerdirect?v=1… -
Re: A new modeling tool released
Polyhertz: Thanks for the UI mockup effort. For the viewport performance, the programe performs the navigation according to the cursor movement reported by the operating system so if the operating system reports it in a slow pace, that could cause the result you encountered. But i think that's unlikely the case. Can you… -
Re: Maxscript need help: integer to frame
You don't need the "f" when setting sliderTime. You can just say: slidertime = (tijd/2) If you run into a situation where you do need the integer as a frame number you can convert it using "as time" slidertime = (tijd/2) as time The trickier situation is converting a frame to an integer. For example, 60f as integer… -
Re: Comparing wireframe topology in Games compared to Films
Thanks for the info guys. One more thing, before you export your model to Zbrush, Mudbox, Mari do you make it an even quad topology like in the film industry? (Figure 1) this is how I see lots of artists in the games industry making there models before they export it to Zbrush, Mudbox. Is this okay or are they being lazy?… -
Re: [WIP]*Oh boy*_ WWW_character
You definitely don't want to learn rigging/skin weighting with this guy. It will be a tremendous nightmare to keep all the layers from clipping. To get a general understanding enough to make simple rigs for posing or retargeting, pluralsight has several courses and you could complete them all in a month or two -- so about… -
Re: Software - Where to begin after graduation?
Subscriptions. If you're taking your profession seriously, there's no reason you can't afford Maya LT + Mudbox for a combined $30/month. Both are the closest to AAA/Hollywood tool sets on a budget and most people pay more for their cellphones. Anything on Steam usually goes on sale once during the holidays, so I would wait…
