Hi, For quite a time now I've wanted to post this video here, and I finally managed to get the time to do it, so here it is; It is a team project in wich I was the lead artist and the level designer. We were 11 people and we did this in a month with no programmer at our disposal, so I had to do the programming even though…
Marmoset Toolbag 4 crashes while baking at around 40-50mil tris for me (split among 120 high objects). Anything below that and it doesn't crash, but when I bake with objects that are more than approximately 40mil tris, Marmoset just closes without an error shortly after I click bake.

Diffuse only atm, probably going to sculpt in some soft details in zbrush and bake that to a normal map. fancy blue…
Also. a friend of mine said he got Gears 2 from 7/11 before the street date. I later found out that he had pre-ordered the limited edition already! Yes, that means he bought 2 copies. So i'm not going to slam everything and everybody :). I'm sure he's not the only one who did that.
direct X 11 now support subdivision on the fly. i think we are going to see it more and more. i was watching a video the other day showing this in a game currently in production that takes advantage of this technology but can't remember which and can't find it now. maybe you mean something like that ?…
