Starcraft II
There's been some pretty unsubstantiated rumors about the Starcraft II beta being released over the past couple days but now that Blizzard's fired off Beta system requirements you can't help but think this sucker might be out some time soon along with the new battle.net system, maybe about the time of the Polycount… -
Re: Modular 3D environment kit where one important piece breaks the grid
Ahh that makes sense. Good thing you're not worried about wall thickness, this time around. Just to be clear, I was suggesting (crappily) merge all of the windows together and add .125 of wall (or support beams) to the left and right making it a 4m tile. Rereading my post it might have sounded like I meant to do that to… -
Re: Carl Bass steps down as CEO of Autodesk
Bass stepped down; or retired as he himself put it because two things. The first is showing little or no hope, that is Virtual reality which Autodesk invested in and which Mark Zuckerberg invested $2 Billion and is dying, actually it never launched so it's "attic hardware". Second reason as Autodesk is well aware and Bass… -
Re: StarCraft 2 Legacy of the Void Art Dump!
I just finished the game and I'm absolutely impressed. The best finale you can even think of! Your guys work is remarkable! As a fan of the classic StarCraft and Broodwar it was nice to see some old units like the reaver or dragoon back on the battlefield. I've waited a long time for this expansion and it's a bit sad that… -
Re: What do you do when nothing feels like it's worth putting the time and effort into?
If like you mentioned you don't have this issue at work, but just for your private projects then maybe you need to remind yourself why you are doing a specific piece. - Is it for fun? Well, then you don't need to see it through. Drop it when it isn't fun anymore. - Is it to learn something? Then you better learn the thing… -
Re: First piece of enviroment art - Crate
Your Tri count seems fine just make sure your using them to define your silhouette and your fine. There's a fire hydrant in UT3 with a 1175 tri count and Im sure you're crate is bigger than a fire hydrant so don't worry there. I'm going to say its your diffuse or spec map making it feel dark. Post your maps so we cans… -

Re: caltech environment model
Dude, your Outliner was horrific :-) I dunno how you work like that. I ended up having to combine the model for various reasons, but If you clean the file and get it organized, you shouldn't have to do that. Anyway, one directional raytracing light set to 1.5 intensity ( perhaps a little hot ) with a reddish hue, a sky… -
Re: [Project Thread] Planitia's Art
Huzzah! Made my first maya rig, skinned the little guy, and posed him a bit: Painting the weights was A LOT easier than I remember it being in Max. I'm not sure I like how the rig feels. I followed this tutorial… -
Re: [3DSMAX] Slow Material slate editor (5-10+ seconds of unresponsive max)
Hey, I can confirm on my end that I experience something similar, but not as intensive. (I have similar specs and the same version of Max as you do). I haven't really checked on a heavy scene yet. But I have a small lag whenever I open the Slate Material Editor. The 1 - 1,5 second lag is not enough to bother me, but if it…
