Re: 90 Day Lifestyle Change
Your bench is quite low compared to your squat and deadlift, but overall you're probably a bit too advanced for Madcow, which is an intermediate program. 5/3/1 is probably the best choice, since everyone touts it, but if you're maxes have fallen significantly Madcow could be just what the doctor ordered. I put 20 kg on all… -
Re: Complete workflow question, starting in Zbrush.
How you do it all really depends on your software of choice. Here is my general high-to-low work flow: 1. High poly in ZBrush 2. Retopologize in ZBrush 3. Project All, Subdivide, repeat until all details transfer. This creates a high poly with edge flow based on your low poly model 4. GoZ to Maya and Unwrap (make a cage if… -
Re: Buying the right hardware for the job
Yea. SSD is absolutely one of the best investments i made recently. Everything just runs 2-3x faster and all apps launch very fast and as well. I had a Q6600 as well but needed to update recently. I had 8gb ram and frequently I ran into insufficient memory so I had to upgrade that as well. so I got a new CPU, mobo, ram and… -
Re: Major drama at Id Software?
True, it's also unfortunate that really most of the guys are a tad pig headed when it comes to getting along creatively. The whole issue with Doom 3 sort of started off this rivalry between John and Adrian. Would have to say while I doubt even John leaving will mean the end of id Software.. (sorry but it's a brand now,… -

Re: Xbox 360: Error E74
I got the E74 error just after Christmas, and 2 weeks after the 1 year warranty was up. Nice timing for the 360 to crap out. Well I can tell you it wasn't the AV cables as running either component, or HDMI resulted in the same error. It did however work after the first time I got the error. Worked for 2 minutes and the… -
Re: budget card woes!
I play Doom3 on an Athlon 2600+ 512MB GeForce 5200 (Standard) 64MB AGP8x. Plods along nicely at 30fps on High Settings, you get like 10fps extra on Low so not even worth the graphics crap-out. The problem with the low-end GeForce and Doom 3 is actually the Fillrate. Budget GeForce FX/6 have horrible small fillrates, so… -
Re: The Ripper
Rofl... i think that since this is a new concept for ut3, you need to make it a bit differet... when looking at the way your gun loads, it would feel like the gun would have a firing rate of around .75 shots a second, which would mean the gun would fire only 4 times every 3 seconds... When looking at it this way, a design… -
Re: Workflow Improvement Thread
I agree with the anatomy study but a different approach: - 3 Characters: Skeloton, Oragans/viens/Muscule Structure, Nude Model - 5,000 triangle limit each (try for less) - Self-made textures - One week gathering referance materail. Books, only pics (http://3D.sk is a good site) and drawing from reference. Though you can… -
Re: [WIP] Pounce! - A cute cat party game
We plan to do a full sculpted cat for now - I forgot to attach the stylisation references we've been looking at for it, but something like a combination of these: Links: #1 , #2 and #3 We're going for a semi-realistic sort of hand-painted style for the game, still working on finding some concrete games and ideas to use as…
