Re: Customize Comp. vs Upgrading?
never EVER buy super top of the line shit, it always will cost you twice as much as the more reasonable stuff, and be like 15% better, makes no sense! such a waste..... $1200 for a cpu? Thats just insane. -
Re: Car or Computer?
Car? You don't need a car, you need a motorcycle! Pick up an older bike, fix it up, and if you've played your cards right, you'll be enjoying 40+ gas mileage for around $1200. -
Re: More bang for buck out of each vertex
It's basically like that 100100 is your value and you split it to get 100 and 100. So you have to half your resolution to get twice as many values in there. But note: floats are handled differently then ints as they are stored with the famous "floating point". So you might only get two values in a float. The internet will… -
Re: What does the Specular channel in UE4 actually do.
Yes it does prevent you from getting 100% accuracy - in favor of making things easier for artists. This was clearly a philosophical pipeline decision, and they are putting ease of use over 100% accuracy.

Re: fan speed seems too high on new system

Re: Twisted Swamp - Tropical Environment WIP
WHOA! For some reference, the largest lightmap we used for our Unearthly challenge was a 128. Most were 32x32's. And as you can see in our final shots, shadows are nice, soft and detailed. Once Lightmass finishes the actual lighting part, its taking all those lightmaps, re-mapping them for better shadow contrast resolution… -

I will usually sort the hair manually. Sounds scary.... and it is. Yup I sort each piece from back to… -

Re: Degree and College Advice
I'd argue less that the graphic design degree is necessary worthless, and more that it's too popular and there are simply far too many people who have them actively seeking the too few roles that are out there. At the last university I had any experience with, they had something like 60-100 graduates a year coming out of…
