[ QUOTE ] if a train is leaving dallas at 40mph and another train is leaving philli at 64mph,and they both stop 3 times and then are heading towards each other and are meeting in paris, how many polys is the tree on the side of the mountain? [/ QUOTE ] I'd answer "how many pixels is the mountain goat occupying on screen at…
Sounds like a plan, how about Friday 13th or 20th November, Crown and Two chairmen in Soho, Dean Street as you can drink outside on the street and have a cheeky smoke. I could poke my Alumni who work in the area and we could all occupy upstairs and outside, there's a handy bar upstairs as well :) Map -…
http://code.google.com/summerofcode.html I know some of you have just as much coder in your blood as 3D artist. It looks as though Blender has jumped on as a mentoring company and has a couple projects as well as a few other 3D/2D application devs. If you need something to occupy your summer, you're a student and you want…
I haven't had any compatibility issues in a long time. I will say though that I've found a terrible memory leak error inside the core of the operating system, which others are apparently having, and they have yet to fix. The "System and compressed memory" process routinely occupies 2-4 gigs of RAM for no reason. It…
Can i stretch these two UV shell which has the same vertex count, into square shape (or other shapes but the two have to be the same shape) and stacking them, occupying exactly the same UV space on every vertex? I want to save texture space on a long blobly object. this is just an example, but the real object will have…
For a schoolproject I am making a game with a few others. Currently our programmer is making the most progress, but now most of the concepts are done, we're catching up with the assets. Story: As an elite soldier(different classes available) you're tasked with freeing a occupied outpost, taken over by the Drifters.…
Max can display cubemaps in the viewport if you use the DDS cubemap format, and you use a DirectX shader. I was going to post an updated wiki page, but the server's crapping out. Here's the info, eventually I'll post it here in the wiki... ============================= A cubemap is six images that are mapped onto a cube.…
It could be a number of things, hard to say without a screen shot: 1. Your plane has height around the borders and you have perspective on 2. Your plane does not perfectly occupy a square (your sculpting caused the border to move) 3. Your viewport is not zoomed out enough to fully contain your entire document dimensions 4.…
I got a similar result when I was messing with the export settings in zbrush with the offsets. to fix it I just made sure both hi and low polys offsets were exsactly the same. I confirmed in 3d viewer on xnormal that both meshes were occupying the same space. And if using a cage made sure it just bearly was covering both…
@Nathair23 Don't say that! This enviroment feels very meh for the first wee while, especially when you have to mess around with the placement of those roof pieces for ages. Keep going. Thought I'd start experimenting with the textures and colours, at the moment I'm figuring out what to do with the roof pattern. I'm going…
