Re: Maya + Nvidia = potential for crash
Nah, actually they're quite astute with their prediction. You don't actually "softmod" per-say, rather your Quadro features are locked down. This of course changed in GeForce 7, and I presume 8, when they started manufacturing the Quadro GPUs differently. But back in GeForce 2->6, the only thing separating a Quadro GPU and… -

photoshop: increase sample rate?
I quite often like making swooping gestured brush movements in photoshop, but the results are often pretty dissapointing: ie what should be a nice curving arc is infact a series of short lines, like the movement is quantised. Is there some setting somewhere or some way to improve this? I've got a fairly good pc (3ghz… -

Working on the sculpt right now and plan to eventually make a full game res character out of him. There is still much detailing to do, but I have just about all of the pieces blocked in at the very… -
Unwrap question!
Is there any way to grid the uv's on a pipe shaped unwrap? In the example below I can get to an okay unwrap for a lightmap in 7 clicks, but I'd much rather have it straightened to avoid stair stepping in the lightmap and minimize uv wastage. Is there any way I can gridify the uv's in one click? I can't find I way to do… -
AO doesnt bake between 2 objects (weird small line near border)
So, i made an asset. it consists of 7 objects. I named them to bake by mesh (a_high, a_low.. etc). And generally normal was baked fine , but when making AO with self-occlusion it was good except those places under the cap\roof of the model. there are white lines - they shouldn't be there. AO stops there for whatever… -

Buying behind the curve...64-bit AMD or dual Intel
I'm throwing together a temporary workstation for around $800, but I'm stumped as to which processor to get: Athlon 64 3000+ or a Intel 805 (2.66Ghz) Dual Core LGA775. Obviously it's a setup for game art. Just got tired of making do with a PIII. I'll be using Maya 4.5 and Photoshop 7 mostly. Alos, are there any sites that…
