Re: General dSLR advice
There are a couple really cheap AF macro lenses you can buy too, if your camera had an AF motor. =P Oh well.... Personally I find MF macro quite difficult, especially with a lens that has a short focus throw and is not designed for macro. You may want to simply consider buying a Nikon Micro 55mm 2.8/3.5 AI lens.… -
Re: Outdoor/Forest Environment
Just had feedback from a player with a Q6600 stock and 9800GT Green Edition- it plays at a "bearable" 17-25fps, but if fire/chrome/msn/unused programs are closed and the game is run at a lower resolution (in the settings menu, 800x600 or 640x480) then the game runs completely fine at 40fps+ solid. So if it doesn't run too… -
Re: ADN Modeler Tools : Smart modeling scripts for Maya
I'm having an issue where if I click the SS button, instead of it switching between offsets and number of edges, it just throws out the error "G:/Libraries/Documents/maya/2017/scripts//AMTools/AMTScripts/StartShapeShifter.mel line 262: Found no valid items to add the attribute to. // " also when I try to use easy circle,… -

Re: [WIP] Cyberpunk Street (Crit needed)
https://vimeo.com/269237721 Thought I might as well make a little fly-through of the scene. Music for the atmosphere haha! Hope you like it. Not calling this finished yet. Also as you can see I toned out the strong magenta color filter, not sure if I like it more neutral or not. -
Re: Hyperthreading: Should I Care?
I've looked at some benchmarks in the various websites, and the i5-8400 looks like a really nice CPU, though, at the same price range there's the newer Ryzen 5 2600X, while not being as fast in single thread performances, it offers multithread. The question is, do you max out easily your whole CPU (100%), or you see mostly… -
Re: questions about vid cards
I did not have really good experiences with the Quadro's. In my case we had some laptops with nice Quadro's in it, and their performance (for anything else than 3d modelling) was far below par, and their drivers were very far behind with the "normal consumer" drivers causing all sorts of troubles. Playing a simple OpenGL… -
Re: UDK Anoying Normal Map Seam Doesn't Make Any Sense.
Sorry for posting 3 times in a row, but I wanted to bump this just to point this out. http://utforums.epicgames.com/showthread.php?p=26161072 If you read the last post there it appears as though unreal just plane out does not support mirrored normal maps (either vertically or horizontally) if you have specular. However, I… -
Re: Old time telephone
cool idea ! IMO i think if you nail the texturing on this ( i hope you do :) ) when you should just do a real time render of the telephone on its own, like Scott did for his golfcar http://scotthomer.co.uk/?p=264 its just an idea or backup plan :P good luck !! -
