Re: Low poly base mesh, what are you priorities?
Don't do the "slouched shoulders" thing. Make the collar bones of your rig perfectly horizontal. And better yet : Do as suggested above and overlay your references on top of your model - don't just look at them. Also a good idea is to bring in a 3d model of a human skeleton into your scene, as it will teach you things… -
Re: Buy Nothing Day 2009

Re: A question on freelance contracts
Invoices are important! SO make sure you don't send it as an MS Word doc. Make sure you send stuff in PDF format. Encrypt it with a password if you need to. This is important as I ran into problems once with an invoice. Essentially, I sent off the Word Doc with an embedded date (doh!). The invoice said payment needed to be… -
Re: What is the polycount for "next-gen" consoles?
7 power pc cpu's at 3.2 ghz each blows away current mathmatical computing on a home system Jarrod. The reason you think it's slow is because nothing has been specifically optimized for the cell processor. They are quoting the terraflop speed rating correctly. It's only durring FP operations on the GPU, not common… -
Re: Desert wanderer
This guy is looking amazing Snefer! I am really digging the hat shape and the sphere thing on his left shoulder. Idk what it is exactly but if u had a hose coming off the little spouts it could be used like a camel pack which would make sense since he travels the desert and probably carries a good amount of water. And I… -
Re: [Portfolio] King Mango
Sorry, I actually did find the gallery, but I exagerated the dificulty to try and make a point. I agree, no splash page. If you absolutely HAVE to have a splash page, ALWAYS make your central image link to the gallery. and ALWAYS make sure the menu shows up on even the smallest of screens. i.e. I wasn't running my browser… -
Re: ATi Catalyst Selection Issue in 3D App
Well it didn't work for me. I used driver cleaner to flush out any remnants of previous Ati drivers and then installed fresh 8.3 drivers that were mobility modified, only this time through the device manager using the .inf file in the ATI support folder. I tried the hotfix (which I also mobility modded) and I'm still… -
Re: Computer stats

Re: [Technical Talk] - FAQ: Game art optimisation (do polygon counts really matter?)
yes paintover, and Ruz the discussion is more about sacrificing quality for a "few tris", which is not worth it. The discussion is about those very last ultra bits of optimizing. It should not imply that optimizing at all isnt needed, its just that there is a grey zone where the amount of lowered quality or time spent with…
