This might not help you but... I was getting the same thing as soon as I updated windows 7 to SP1. You've already stated you've not updated which seems weird because the crashing seems very similar. Eyeon released a fix for the crashing very shortly after which completely fixed ALL problems. If you can, I would update…
TWilson: Thanks :) I'll make the icons bigger and take away the empty one's soon. Pixelmasher: thanks to you too :P well first i have to find an internship which seems hard enough hehe, well atleast i'm open to leave Sweden. Stoofoo: yeah it's on my wish list too :D well I'll be working 24/7 until i find something so i…
simple and dull algorithm 1. get average center point 2.get average plane 3. get average radius 4.create n sided circle with radius and center point 5 move vertexes to their counterpart in the circle 6.delete circle 7. rotare vertexes relative to the centerpoint until the hull is convex even easyer script way slice…
Quick update, got rid of the horrible haze that was one the lower part of the playside and made the overall look more subtle. Also added some Japanese text ;) By now you can probably see that I'm aiming for Japanse Sci-Fi :D . Had my first exam out of 7 today and probably passed that with a good mark for anyone who's…
I have you to blame for taking a look at Blender after I read that you use it. and while I only have spent a day or two in it I am already feeling that this could be something! Sort of the same feeling I had with Modo when first starting to use that. Feels very fresh and while the UI feels odd coming from 7 years of Max…
Not everytime but honestly sometimes I found myself doing it,and for sure I'm not painting gloss map 24/7.Just wished for more reasonable way to do that. I'd say no,to me It's easier to work with auto save tools that saves the groups of the psd file into separate tga files.But dunno,it could vary on the subject you're…
@biofrost - That is awesome to hear! 7 months give or take. About a month of full time work to get all the art and design finished but the real time came from beta testing the game and reworking all the bugs we kept finding. That ended up taking us about 6 months. I am pretty happy with the end result and am glad for all…
I can definitely recommend http://one.com! I have used them for all my own and pretty much all of my clients websites over the years. Never had any trouble with them. I usually design in PS so i haven't tried their online site builder, but from the looks of it it should be good enough to make a nice portfolio. (There's…
Oh, and in max 7 the skinwrap is stunning. This morning I was asked for a model for a demo. I had the model, but no rig. I pulled in a good weighted model from a few weeks ago, then projected the weighting from the rigged one to the unrigged one. That was it, 15 seconds later I had an acceptable rig. Then I was able to…
Yeah good call, I should've clarified really that Max only struggles with really complex scenes. I work in Arch-Viz and handling huge CAD files along with badly optimized meshes is usually where the main issues occur. I'll second the battery life for sure though, I can see a good 6 or 7 hours on a single charge if I'm…
