Re: RAM or Video Card upgrade to run huge scenes in engine?`
I am in the same exact position... Jes finished investing in watercooling and wanted to now concentrate on enough ram for UDK. ( and big scenes ) At first I was considering going all out and getting 24 gigs of really fast hexa-channel memory. But anything faster than what I already have is $729 If I could get by with 12… -
Re: You know what really grinds my gears???
I have to agree with the Smokers onegrinding my gears. One company I worked over the smoking area, and just for the hell of it I timed how long they stood outside bullshitting and wasting time. For the week I was paying attention they took approx 6 hrs out of the week, that was 3 of them who formed like girls going to the… -
Re: Model Topology/Method Question
I think what you're doing is fine for the most part. What's this model for? Knowing that will help answer your question better. These are some things I would personally do (see image).

WIP: NOD light Infantry, Thrice revamped
I think maybe a few over the passed 5 or 6 years have probably seen one of my GDI or NOD models, and I think it's safe to say this is a complete upgrade from the past two. Right now I finally got photoshop working (got a laptop) and im trying to texture it. Now, I have a flatscreen, LCD true-life screen, and apparently the… -
