ok so i just found out the new sandybridge processors don't support tripple channel ram. no big deal! so i've modified my likely setup to this: CPU: http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CP-359-IN MOBO: http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MB-432-AS RAM:…
Here's an update. A few people suggested I should bump it up to... ohhh bout tree fitty. Ok ok sorry, every time I hear 350 I think about Chef's parents lol. Anyway, I did bump the count up to 342 tris. I went from 16 sides to 18, modeled the center hub and put a slight taper on the tread in the high res version. I think…
Those worker rights are voluntary corporate procedure, not guaranteed through legislature, so next go round or a smaller company is free to ignore them. I am glad it didn't leave you out in the cold, but that doesn't disprove the point. CCP is a success with 350k because they don't have a publisher. WAR was a failure…
[ QUOTE ] I realize that's at least 1000-1500 polys to heavy for UT2004, but those figures were built for loe res Poser and not as game characters. How is animation handled in games these days? Do games have skeletons now, or are they a series of predefined morph targets on a solid figure? [/ QUOTE ] If you're still…
He's looking really great, he is definitely high on the tri's for a DS game though. Most characters I've worked on for DS need to be around 300-350 tri's. Unless he's going to fill most of the screen I would keep the tri count down next time. Areas like the tuning keys could easily be one tri, or a plane with alpha on it.…
This next map is more of a test map that i made that is roughly moddeled off of Gazala. http://img513.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screen002vy8.jpg http://img98.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screen003cd2.jpg http://img443.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screen014zd9.jpg http://img299.imageshack.us/img299/9376/gazalaplanno0.jpg…
[ QUOTE ] You can still download all the models and skins that were hosted on Polycount via Fileplanet (since that's where all the old links pointed anyway). [/ QUOTE ] Fileplanet usually doesn't catalog files hosted on hosted sites' fileplanet directories. I still have all 350+ q3a models and weapons. somewhere
Congrats on the new card frostman. I'm aiming for that one myself, probably the Sapphire brand. You and I should play some DM later. 1. Grab the Omega drivers like tpe suggest. http://www.omegadrivers.net/ 2. Athlon 2700+ CPU is good, so you may want to invest in a new board. 3. I prefer ABIT motherboards. They have a nice…
I have made a vehicle for a 3d cell phone game for a competition on gamedev.net. The vehicle had 67 polys and used a 64x64 texture. Besides that I had made some textures and graphics. All are in here: http://www.xs4all.nl/~tetsuo/images/DF_assets.jpg I was contacted a week or 2 ago for free-lance gig to make characters for…
Sal: great present! Now I just saw this today, and I already want one - trouble is they're about £3500 ($6500 approx.) ... yowch! http://www.bmusic.com.au/prod3568.htm Chances are I'd be the only guy in the country with one though
