I think ASUS is also releasing compatible Motherboards for the new Sandy Bridge CPU's. The H67 and th P8P67's. They have all the good stuff you want! edit: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131685&cm_re=h67-_-13-131-685-_-Product I have never used gigabyte, but I know Asus provides a good mobo.
well cheers for all th crits and ideas guys really good stuff! but i only have till the 3rd may so i have to get cracking with the texture.. ok managed to dedicate some time to this tonight got it all unwrapped, might add a few more polies as i still have a few left.. well see. Jody
Kodde: DXT compression is a fixed size, a 24bit compressed image is always going to be 1/4th the size of an uncompressed TGA. I see what you're saying about overlaying etc, however i dont know that i would often do it the way you mention, as even if my lowpoly normals match the high very well, i'm likely to have some areas…
I'm really starting to love this tool so thanks for making it available. It's great that you listen and implement suggestions here; you don't get that with Autodesk so it's very much appreciated. A bit of feedback from Nov 16th release. It all feels a bit more fluid in the navigation, snapping and tweaking. Thanks for…
Be carefull, If you enter somewhere at a generalist spot or a modeler spot, that'S because they want a generalist or a modeler, not because they want a character concept artist en 3 years ( Also those are very very very specific to high end AAA studio and they have senior concept artist for that.) You need to understand…
Just use another packed texture in the same way for additional layers, and plug them into the additional sockets of the Layer Blend node as before. So two textures for your overlay materials, you can use six layers (R+G+B+R+G+B) if you don't use the alpha of those textures. The hard limit is the texture sampler limit,…
Ah well done Goeddy :) American Psycho - Intro to Patrick Bateman [ame] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CGeAMVK75T4[/ame] In reality most weekends are spent during the day with the kids while wife works or has a chance to do some art work, so its Museums (London has lots of free Museums), kids Adventure places, park,…
Melissa ... don't know if you've made plans for AFTER graduation from UNT, but you might want to consider stopping by Guildhall at SMU on Dec. 9th. ( There will be a show of games from 10:00 AM to 8:00 PM, showing off recent student work. There will also be some folks from the industry there. You also might want to…
No offense, but if you've gotten better results with 10 sided geometry then 8 sided geo, you've screwed up somewhere. I went ahead and spent 30 minutes on these 2 models. Left one has 1 bump per poly, gives really nice, even results. Right one would/should give nicer results but that would involve tweaking the cage some…
So its only a win if you count the votes of the hardcore, most of whom actually do own a wii? Maybe looking into why the Wii is a success and why people find the 8th Mario Party fun is something you should do. There are lessons to be learned for sure, even if you hate the look and feel of the controller. Blindly passing it…
