Thank you for all of your feedback, you guys here are pure awesomeness! Some additional info to where I'm at currently: I will improve my subdiv skills, since they seem to be essential, and also I took a look into MODO 901. Got to say, MeshFusion is great and the handy preset library even more. Easily dragging and dropping…
Wow! Thank's guys i'm impressed at all your input. It's a good point about the various screens that my work will be seen on. I definitely dont need a photographer's standard monitor. As i'm in the UK i'm looking for a monitor around 200 pounds which should get me a fairly decent 24". I hadn't heard of IPL before as i…
Well Traditional C++ runs on the .NET Framework (a.k.a: Common Language Runtime) along with other common programming languages. Not just the managed C++. I use Visual C++. NET compiler myself. He is talking about XNA and GDK .NET Framework which makes the game programming in C++ and C# soo easy that even a child can do it.…
Very nice thread. Lets see now : - Finished high school, moved out of my parents house. - Started university - accounting - still don't know why I made that choice, but it was great 4 years of my life. - Traveled a lot - Back to Bulgaria - Went and lived in the states, Massachusetts for 5 1/2 years. - Met and lived with a…
Logitech G400 or 500 (great to hold, the 500 has customizable weight and they last) Microsoft Explorer 3.0 or older (all shaped the same, light and very nice both in feel and build quality) Steelseries Sensei (very similar to the MS Explorer in shape but a tad more gaming oriented.. that is needlessly high DPI that doesn´t…
Very true. You always have to be wary about new hardware. Just look at the initial run of the XBox 360. And that was from a major company with teams of engineers and multiple years of development time. Nothing comes out perfect the first time. At the same time, I can understand the backers' enthusiasm for a product like…
Hi Mangled Poly! I have a Macbook Pro 15'' Retina Display i7 (2012) but now the "Project Anarchy" does not work with it. (GeForce GT 650M with 1GB GDDR5 memory) But I have an old laptop "Toshiba" A100-376, with this feature, is it enough? (UDK have some difficulty running within a large windows). Processor Intel Core2Duo -…
FINALLY a taste of the game I bought my 360 for! :D Loved it! Feels like a cross between RE4 and Re0. Took a couple of tries to get used to the RE4 controls again. PFFT! No need for move and shoot (10 RE games and you still are disappointed when it's not there?). Fire off a few shots, move to another vantage point. Upping…
Hey guys sorry to bump, but i wanted to let you know that we're hosting another community game night at the place I work, and everyone here is invited to represent Polycount. It will be streamed live on our site and jtv. On Monday August 24, we will play Madden 10 at 3-4 PM EST (GMT -5) and COD4 at 5-6 PM EST (GMT -5). We…
Frank... Polygon numbers = irrelevant. The video card on your computer, your PS3, and your XBox 360 draw triangles. Triangles. There is no right answer to your question, and the "how many is too many" has been addressed a thousand times on these forums. Is this thing even able to be animated? Or is it just a static piece…
