Re: Showreel compression grief
Well, I gave SUPER a go and it easily encoded to wmv (WVC1) and mov (H264) which is great, but the stutter is still there and in the .mov file it is much worse than in either avi or wmv! Arghh!! I was using a bitrate of 3120 with no sound. I'm going to try playing it back on my wifes laptop to see if it works there but her… -
Re: TV as a monitor?
hehe... well right now my secondary clone monitor is my 32" aquos, but it's only 720p. I can make it do 1080i but the refresh goes all crosseyed and it doesn't agree with my 4:3 19" lcd monitor... I can either spend 300 for a new 22" samsung widescreen... or I can pay 50 bucks a month for 3 years and get a 42" tv -

Re: Who watches?
[ QUOTE ] I wonder if they are leaving the story alone and if it'll be a good straight adaptation or if they are going to try to monkey w/ the ending. [/ QUOTE ] Well, it's Zack Snyder directing, who did 300, and that was a pretty straight port from graphic novel to movie, so hopefully he realises that messing too much… -
Re: Finished the first part of my anatomy study.
I find that a good way to have enough polys in mudbox is to turbosmooth my base model before I export to obj. Its far easier and gives a good even distrobution. What spec PC do you have? I can get up to 6 sub divs on my p4 3.0 with a gig of ram without issue.... But then I do do things a limb at a time for eg. -
Re: help with pricing for webdesign and vector art
Well, I'm in no way a professional here, but my boss who is said that it pretty much matters on the complexity of the page. If the guy is wanting lots of nice graphics or interactive stuff it'll be higher than just a plain page sort of thing. She said that no webpage goes for less than like $300, so if you are doing a… -
Re: Mobile 3D Game spec's
Depends on which platform you are aiming for. On the DS you could use something around 300 polys for the main character and a 128x128 diffuse (64x64 preferably). The DS can render up to 2048 polys at the same time on the 3d screen. It also has backface culling and renders polys as quads instead of tris if the vertexes are… -
Re: Manitoba crash site - UDK env
Those rocks need a little color variation. They just seem like you slapped on a grey material. IMO they could use slightly harder edges as well. But they are getting there! Also, for the spec of the rocks, I've tried a few things. The best results were with a simple noise map used for the spec. The results are rather very… -
Re: Recomendation for camera to shoot own textures
I've owned or do own a good majority of the M43 prime lenses, heres a quick recap: Samyang 7.5mm fisheye lens, haven't owned (but have owned 8mm 3.5 in Canon mount) very good lens, super wide fisheye effect isn't really general purpose though. Very small and inexpensive($200-ish?) Olympus 12mm 2.0 - Currently own, lovely… -
Re: SDR vs HDR Monitor
Wonder about this too. Especially considering I work with typically 120 lm/sm2 and anything higher is a stress to both my eyes and my color monkey colorimeter. Even at this brightness any white windows explorer background is a pain to look at imo so I use a kind of gray "contrast" windows theme with nothing pure white in…
