@dGreenberg Thankyou! I don't mind at all- my method is kinda a combo of different people's haha, my main way of placing the cards is pretty much the same as Georgian Avasilcutei's here: https://www.artstation.com/artwork/dmR1K which is using splines in 3DSMax to place the cards and just gradually building it up in layers…
I really like the unity engine but I can not teach it as it does not come with stuff like shadows amoung other things unless you pay for it? And with 250 PCs we would need a lot of wonga. Here are a couple of articles on the project, anyone got anymore juicy news on the subject? I would Love to know how much this cost…

Like r_fletch_r said, its a Solid State Harddrive. They're significantly faster then traditional hard drives (3.5 7200rpm = up to about 117mb/s read speed, current generation SSDs = up to about 550mb/s read speed). Its great being able to load up Photoshop in under 2 seconds, or Maya in under 8, and a lot of in-app stuff…
The tubes looked off- so I adjusted it a bit Seems like it might be a good idea to work in 2048 and then scale down. I hate scaling, but at least it isn't scaling down a 256 to a 128. Thanks Kincade and MasterFork Cadyw- yeah, I'm pretty excited about the textures- gotta get a low poly down first though! RoosterMAP- I'm…
250 cd/m^2 it's the ideal to don't hurt our eyes, and of course, a good contrast ratio. You don't need an expensive lacie calibrator.

Got a start on the retop over the weekend. Still have the back of the cape to retop and the rope decor to retop, however I've run into the same problem that I usually end up with in this stage. I end up with a much lower tri count than what I intend, but I feel weird just adding more to up the tricount..... I think I need…
