Re: Unreal Developer Kit - MASTER THREAD
vrav - thx, that worked for removing the package. Though I have to say that's rather stupid to require going outside the package to delete a file. I'm running into a similar problem with textures now. I unload the package, then right click to delete a texture in that package. But right clicking makes that texture load,… -
Re: 3D Cartoony Dog with nice expressions
Actually Blender is a Free 3D Modeling and animation software. It has some external renders like yafray, Luxrender and lots more. There asre some commercial renderer like vray is also for Blender. Blender has its own render that is called Internal Render. I am saying that this character is craeted in blender and rendered… -
Re: Half life episode 3?
Eh. The only really great thing about the engine that sets it apart from others right now is that you don't need an external program like Beast to calculate really pretty lightmaps and stuff. It's not the greatest engine out there and it doesn't have really good support for fairly standard stuff these days. You have the… -
Re: Real-time Subsurface Scattering
I've seen very convincing spherical harmonics solutions to bake perVertex coefficients storing the light transfer of subsurface scattering. It runs without any problem on any recent gpu and could probably be used in modern games. Anyone that has the directX SDK installed can check it on the demos (even with dx9).… -
Re: DS 3dviewer
Thanks again for the images. Glad to see people are using this. For some reason GoogleHosting isn't allowing me to upload new version so we'll try something else. Viewer v8: Camera controls are in. Just use the touchscreen. I don't entirely like the algorithms used, but at least it's something. The filelisting bug should… -
Re: Abandoned desert compound [Environment]
Not really, opinion varies but most people don't deviate far from the truth. The major point really is that mental ray/vray and other photon lighting render systems will be involved in the production of textures and texture effects but the actual lighting in a game engine scene will not involve these. So if you want a job… -
Re: Max RTT: non square ascpect ratio
how does the texture appear in photoshop. max might be resizing it to a square when it loads it into vram.. that said it shouldnt do it offline I did a few non squares recently with the scanline with no problems. why are you using MR? Scanline tends to be much better for baking as you get the gloabl super sampler -
Re: Kaspersky Conspiracy Theory?
Vrav: yes, the rubber spatula is 3rd from the left on my utility belt. Dekard, Tumerboy: I honestly had not thought of that as being a possibility. I'll remember that next time I do a clean install of an OS. Is there a way to make sure that doesn't happen when you format? I've heard of programs that obliterate everything,… -
Re: 1 Large Texture or Few Small Textures?
Always bunch up textures when you can. Because it saves on state changes and pipeline stalls. When renderers actually get to the part where they start drawing stuff (after deciding what needs to be drawn) the process involves looping through the materials and drawing everything that uses that material. To change a material… -
Re: High to Low Poly Workflow?
[ QUOTE ] Ohh the drama I nominate Per for the DramaQueen of the month! Other than that, I agree 100% with him... ok 99% Edit: @Vredesbyrd: I think that was a missunderstanding as "hard edges" usually referrs to a way to do smoothing groups in certain apps. [/ QUOTE ] Yes it was my mistake. I'm a max Noob , starting…
