I just built a new rig myself as well after almost 5 years of use on my old p4 3ghz and radeon x800. That was a pretty stable system, but really weak on the rendering/baking side of things. I wanted to make sure I got another one that would be just as stable and offer me the performance boost I needed. I opted for a Q6600…

Let's take a quick look at some correctional facilities around the country. Starting with Louisiana: One out of every 45 people in Louisiana is in prison. Think about that for a minute. This is the highest rate in the country (and the world) by a wide margin. The crown jewel of the Louisiana prison system is Angola. This…
Sorry, it's me and the kids today, so I didn't get to it till a few minutes ago. This should get you started. Just make sure you replace my KActor with one of your own. When you swipe up it will jump. Copy and paste this into Kismet. Begin Object Class=SeqVar_Object Name=SeqVar_Object_2 ObjValue=KActor'KActor_0'…
Wow, thanks everyone Bobo - Thanks The first Photoshop painting tutorial I ever took a gander at was your video (must be 6-7 years old by now) when you were painting a dude's face with almost all dodge and burn :P Needless to say, your style has changed since then, but the inspiration is still there. Thanks! Aes - I can't…
Thanks for the replies. Showster: Yeah I'll see if I can get more definition in there, the main problem I am having is that there is only 2 areas where the clothes are any where close being tight (the area above the boots under the tunic and the elbow areas) the rest of his clothes are pretty baggy or are covered with…
Cool reel. The style is quite different than mine so I'll try my best to give some helpful notes. * For the first scene, make sure to keep animating until/past the last frame. I can tell it's currently just a bit of interp between 2 keys for the last half second or so, causing the scene to die at the end which is a bummer…
Today is the final day on this project. I'm going to consider it done, and move on to other projects, even though this one has many things that could improve. My tasks for today were to create a pose for my character, and then create the images needed to enter the contest. So, to create the pose, I had to rig and skin my…
I completely agree with you there. LOTR was awesome because it took orcs, elves and hobbits (which are more or less as comedic as it gets) and put them in a serious, believable world. The "believable world" oftentimes breaks down in the Hobbit movies. One of the biggest shortcomings! LotR had a ton of musical themes that…
Hey guys, I am trying to have my vehicle play an animation when it fires my projectile. What do I need to do for an animation to be triggered when firing my gun on the vehicle? But what script do I edit to tell what animation to play when firing? Here is my UTVehicle_Cannon.uc file: /** * Copyright 1998-2011 Epic Games,…
