Thanks to you both I apprecaite it :) . As I said previously Zac I can always count on you for advice <3 I was a little skeptical of having Skywarp on there. Having you both echo my own thoughts definitely tells me what to do. Really frustrated I don't have a 6'th piece to throw up there, but as the 'ole saying goes,…
Ngage isn't anywhere near as powerful as the DS. Its been a while since I worked on Payload for the Ngage, a futuristic free roaming car game, but if I remember correctly, we were looking at around 50 polygons for the vehicle models (cut down in favour of more funky special effects), up to about 120 for buildings and…
Not too much going on, but I figured I'd throw an update out here: Cops went to the address attained from IP with warrant. It was some kid that lives with his grandma. They supposedly just brought it over to "check it out" and then left. I also had internet content tracking software, and it looks like all they got online…
If this is for unreal, it doesn't matter if you are using soft lit translucency or a 1-bit masking shader in terms of texture memory. Storing an alpha channel converts a texture from DXT1 to DXT5 in UE3, and that doubles the texture's memory usage because of the way compression is handled. If you do split your alpha map…
I'm also with Sonic. It's not like we're talking 300 lines of code here - all Sonic's done is the code equivalent of a paintover. If we had someone in here asking for assistance with a texture would you give them a link to Ror's Journal and say "here you go, good luck"? Of course not, So why should it be any different for…
I've also been using dreamhost for about a year and a half now. I signed on for a deal like the one Jesse set up, paid 10 dollars for the first year, and then when that year ran out it was around $120 for the second year. Figure 5 bucks a month for two years of service if you average the two. The service has been great,…
Number 1 I've already written as a MEL script (currently at work tho so I can't release it without clearance - I wrote a similar thing for Max though, which is available). It's not much more than 200-300 lines of code, and probably could even be optimised more - also I'm pretty sure there are other scripts out there…
I'm not disagreeing with anything you said, I just thought it was pretty funny that it sounded like you were speaking from experience :) My fiance and I just watched the samurai vs. viking episode tonight and the comparisons are so rigged that it has me yelling at the television. For those who saw it... honestly, a viking…
Btw, Krita http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Krita is another alternative to Gimp. Here http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/Linux_software_equivalent_to_Windows_software is a table with the linux's equivalents of the Window's programs ( sightly old but valid ). About 3D and linux I think most of the 3D programs are…
I guess its spread over two or so weeks. not in 5 days... I am playing it alot, that's all I can really say. I said "80 odd hours" because that's what the save game's time counter said. http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Fallout_3 for those who don't care about spoilers or on their 2nd run through wishing to see everything this…
