UDK Lightmass Lightmap affected by vertex normals?
Hi, Polycount. :poly121: I've got the following problem with Lightmass and Lightmaps: As you can see, there is a nasty black gradient in the 2 corners of the fusebox. The problem presents itself when the light is not directly in front of the asset. The more severe the angle - the worse it gets. This gradient always appears… -

Re: Sub 15" Laptop Super Duper non Pooper
That sager is pretty nice. DDR5 Vid Mem. Though, I'd hate to see battery life and heat on it. Do I also really need 1.5 gigs of memory? It does have a huge performance with 26th on the chart for speed for the gpu. Compared to the 540m on the other Sager I mentioned earlier which is 69th (out of 300). FWIW what Waz and I… -
Re: Max Script help
Render, with big polygons - one draw call on a 2048+ texture runs slower than a 512 texture with 100 draw calls ;) Well, in AS3 at least. On GPU platforms like Unity I have no idea. Up to 100 draw calls, the difference in performance is almost non existent. 500+ is where you start to see a very significant drop in… -
Re: Going to upgrade my PC. Need some advice.
for rendering... looking at cinebench benchmarks will probably be most revelant. Every machine I have owned put together in a renderfarm does not equal the power of my personal machine. ( 12 heavily overclocked water cooled i7-980x threads ) which still renders 20% better at stock speeds than a 2600k and is only 10% slower… -

But I didn't go freelance 100% straight away. My former… -
Re: The Desert(What can you do with no diffuse maps?)
Thank you very much Eric, I'm glad you liked it! Though I'm afraid I've confused you with the shaders. I've got to make a note on that "making of" video or something:) When I say 73 instructions I mean 73 instructions for a perfectly, fully functional ready-for-use shader and that is with only 1 texture sampled(!), so it… -
