Re: Design Books
Not a free option but I found this resource invaluable when I was studying Industrial Design, http://www.designsketching.com/ The book Design Sketching really breaks down the ideation process. It's nice dealing only with the abstraction of a pencil and a piece of paper. Sometimes clearing your head and thinking things out… -
Re: Rats in a maze.
"You wanna cut my throat, go ahead. You wanna cut my fuckin' head off and use it for a fuckin' basketball? You can *bowl* with the motherfucker for all I care! Just don't let HIM do it! I don't wanna get killed by this limey, immigrant JERKOFF! I wanna get killed by an AMERICAN jerkoff!" "You fucking wanker!" -
Re: Bake advice
I will read through those again and try to wrap (ha) my head around the concepts. I cant get textools as my version of max is 2016, and as far as I could find textools stopped being updated after 2010. I do have a checker map texture to use for texel density and position on the UV map. All info and advice is appreciated!… -
Re: modular characters
thank ya boys, once i have tried it i will post up a pic. per, yeah, ive seen the uv space method before. wouldnt that lead to way oversized textures with not much of the space actually in use. like once the body is covered you would just have a corner for the head texture, and the rest would be unused. that was my only… -

Re: New 'folio site, Reel, Environment Scenes
Two quick critiques before I head off to work. On your cathedral, the wireframes on the first two shots are too 'opaque'. If you lowered the opacity a little bit, it would clash less and probably read better. Second, Jpeg quality! Blargh! The site needs to load fast, yes, but you're losing a lot of detail in some of those… -
Re: hardware subdiv/displacement
It was an interesting read, a little above my head at the moment. With the realtime displacement being api based, that means it will work across ati, nvidia, matrox, etc on any gpu that supports dx10 or higher. Such a thing will make it more appealing to developers to use since it's not alienating any one sector of owners.… -
Re: corner vertex baking - maya mel/python
Just pulling this out of my head (i read the script a while ago) but someone with even limited MEL should be up to writing this *per edge in the mesh get its connected faces *find the angle between the faces. acos(faceNormal_1faceNormal_2) *if the angle is between a low and high value then collect the edges verts once… -
Re: l4d 2 demo! thoughts??
Yea lovin the demo so far. The spitter is crazy, the charger is awesome. Noticed the special infected attacks are more coordinated, a jockey will lead its victim into the spitter goo which was really cool. The melee weapons are a lot of fun, especially the clank of the frying pan on the zombies' heads. This game certainly… -
