Thanks for the feedback. I can see normal maps fine with my current card when I play games or render out a scene. The card doesn't see real time shaders that require directX 9c or open gl higher than 1.1. Do the latest detonators drivers update those? I can seen some of the directx 9 shaders in XSI and Max but not the…
Thanks, everybody. Talon: I am using 302, having just graduated from using 203 (egad!). I think you may be right about the normal maps displaying too strong in the viewport; that was a problem with earlier versions as well, except they'd be at about 500% power in the viewport. I tried reducing the opacity of the normal map…
@jakemoyo Thank you! I rendered the image with a white bg, because turbosquid checkmate needs the white bg. I can also post here more pictures when i get them rendered. At the moment i have only a macbook pro 2012 mid which doesn't even have gpu . Im rendering with a i5 3210m and it is very hard to do good 8k textures with…
my house has never been robbed, but 3/4 of my past bikes have been stolen (still got the 4th one, for now) 1st time was like 14 years ago, got stolen from my shed at home. 2nd time was during college, it was locked up besides other bikes but they all got stolen that day. And 3rd time was at uni when I decided to leave my…
Consider that: 1. On WD there worked about 400 people. 2. That are spread all around the world. 3. Which means all of them work on different hours. So no. You can't just sit, and fix shit, because you don't know if other people didn't fixed it, you might not have access to original source, or you might not have access to…
I'm enrolled with Think Tank. My foundation semester starts in June but I've had access to the private chat with all the other current students. The work they are putting out is fantastic and the only complaint I've heard is that no one is sleeping because they are getting worked so hard. The final semester is a 4 month 1…
Saw it late this afternoon and loved it. Definitely a very visually interesting film and all of the cast members were pretty much flawless in their roles. Tom Waits as the devil was very cool. I was impressed. I definitely would recommend seeing it if at all possible. I read that it only opens in 400 theaters in the United…
Just at first glance, your body is way too small. Astartes physique is all about bulk. What you've got is more like a regular human in a suit of power armour. The overall shape of the armor doesn't look too bad, it's a little flat though. Give it some more size on the green axis (x? I can't really tell)and the…
I suppose shape language is one of those terms I`ve picked up over the years that doesn't really exist outside of specific dev studios. Shape language simply refers to a collection of design aesthetics, specifically shape/volumes, but often extends to textural or color information. The goal is to define a specific style.…
