Sorry for the lack of pics but im on vacation haha. When I get back Monday I can post some if that will help. For the chamfering method just imagine you have a box like your original post has. Instead of having a lp with edges at angles that require different smoothing groups like your box has you can add a chamfer to…
On the context of your most recent animatic alone (without reading any of your preface other than the fact that you have a hard deadline) I can tell you that so far, you're not communicating a message or a story through visuals alone. I am not trying to say that your visuals "arent stunning", but I am telling you that the…
http://onlyagame.typepad.com/only_a_game/2007/06/ethics-of-metap.html That is a good article, and some of the responses are interesting too. Even as a Christian I have come across other Christians who seem to have lost their perspective on compassion and care for the world in the present. I think this is because these…
for pc we have the trouble of having so much mixed hardware, ie several gpus on the market from different generations. Which means if you want to do less work and still reach most you will use less fancy shaders, so it runs on older hardware too. Also xbox1 and ps2 are as well quite limited. the real jump we will see with…
I went to university beause my hunger of learning was not (is still not) satisfied. Back then I had the choise of getting a job and do medicore stuff - or try hard and get at a good uni. I spent 1/2 preparing my portfolio for the uni and made it through the entrance test. Now where my last semester is about to start I can…

Makes no sense, really. If you bought a PC for gaming your gonna pay 5X as much to play the latests games, and the range is undoubtedly shallower.…
there is also "Mental mill - artist edition" which is node-based just like ShaderFX, and comes free with Nvidia's FX Composer 2.0. the app is standalone and can dump shader code, as well. (fx composer itself feels a bit bloated imo) the Cg Tutorial book, eventhough old, has some nice basic stuff. The Cg Manual (in here…
I have nightmares every night, been this way since I was a kid. Most of the ones people are talking about in this thread stem from an inability coming to terms with reality or the sense that we don't quite grasp the workings of it or that its beyond our control. The recurring patterns , shapes, blocks , music style dreams…
http://www.mediafire.com/?i7d128nobj898k5 Here's a Win32 build. Just pop it in the .gimp-2.8/plug-ins/ folder in your user folder (the parent of Documents/Pictures/etc.) I had to gut GLib to make it build because it was missing so much stuff. I also fixed some bugs, see below for the source to an updated Linux…
