Thanks again for the quick response Joe. I downloaded the trial and started to play around with it. Firstly, it's excellent. Really easy to use and really fast results. It's brought up some new questions, that maybe you could shed some light on. I've uploaded a test video as reference to my questions here…
No one uses mental ray anymore... Autodesk is killing it and putting Arnold with Maya (I'm assuming since they just bought solid angle.) Mental ray Pros: -free with maya - for the most part physically plausible materials. - A really nice layered material system Mental ray Cons: - integration with maya is poor and even…
Hey man, I had a couple minutes so I did a bit of a paint over. Probably the biggest reason she reads flat right now is because the perspective she is sitting in is very misleading for the eye. The right hand is huge, but nothing else falls off fast enough into perspective to justify it. your center line for the girl…
I just thought a Japanese logo on your gallery in the top right corner would do the trick, it's pretty recognisable! But it's still better than some portfolios I've seen, where it takes 3-5 clicks to get to the gallery... As far as the CV go, I'm no expert on the matter, but: -Include your goal. (I would like to work at at…
I had asked a question like this about 2 years ago. (TO myself though) And the only way i had answered it was buy being the best on my team :D we were Making a mod style mmo in our free time. I won everyone over with my ability to output a good model in fast time. It slowly began to get annoying with requests and people…
Xenobond, I know it might sound fishy, but do you really need vista? I am putting together a new box these days and I am putting xp32 in there. I too had waaaaay to many issues with a vista64 machine over last year, it's just not worth it. And I have no expectations for 7 either (recent Windows have always been problematic…
In the low-end ps2_0 profile you have 64 ALU instructions, 3dc/NM take 2 more (if you renormalize already, 4 more if you don't). 4 instructions is not a lot, however it could exceed those 64 if shaders are at limits already. This case is unlikely, and by the sound of it your programmer has some unknown other reason being…
@ Funky Bunnies : WOW! PS-scripts.com and research function is pretty coooool!!! lot of good tips here! Thanks! @ moose : oh yeah that's right I will ask price for it. About Configuration tool it will come with time... But this is first a hotkey workflow to speed up things! I just done my first *.js script! this is very…
I started watching them the other day when they where first posted. I checked out and ended up moving my attention to other things about 2min into Mario Galaxy and ended up closing the window by accident about 4min in. I don't watch a lot of game reviews, so I'm not sure if there is a format you're following or a strategy…
Ive got all the way to the space stage this past weekend, Id say its probably possible to get all the way to space stage pretty fast, maybe even less than 5 hours if you try, but that might ruin some of the charm. I took about 8-10 hours playing so far. So far Ive really enjoyed the experience of spore. In my mind its a…
