Re: A comparitive look at console prices.
I'm super excited about a lot of the upcoming games for 360. As far as everybody ranting about ps3 graphics being so much better that it's going to make it a better system, I did an interesting "quiz" lately.

Re: Progress!!!!!

Quixel Suite woes: Can't reimport inputs, can't save smart materials
Hey guys, I've had this annoying problem with DDO where the top row icons (open reimporter, save smart material, etc..) are all gone. Yesterday I saw the hotfix on the other thread and decided to give it a try. The icons did come back, but the reimporter still doesn't work. I'm trying to add an AO map to an existing… -
