Re: Understanding cages when baking a normal map
But why would you want to do that with your HP geometry in this scenario? Texture bakes with perpendicular topology result in poor normal maps. It's the same reason why you wouldn't model a rivet, or a hole, or a screw head, etc. at a perfect 90 degrees from a flat surface. To get more detail you would want to 1) conform… -
Re: PSA - You can start your own thread!
1) Why post an entire recount if you don't want to go through it? Why call people out and finger people specifically if you didn't want to start something? Seems more like you wanted a chance to recount the drama and have people pat you on the back... People are more likely to comment on the drama if you keep dragging it… -
Re: New Nintendo Console?
...why do they do this? Why do they force design down a certain area by sticking completely dumb controls and shit on their consoles?

Re: Official handplane support thread - Now freeware!!

3D Model viewer for iPhone?
I was wondering.. why isn't there any model viewer for the iPhone / iPod Touch?. I know it's not the best screen to view models, because it's very small, but it's portable, you have internet access and can move the models around, rotate and zoom-in/out very easily. I know there's an OBJ model exporter but it works a bit… -
Copyrighted/Trademarked content in assets sold in 3D marketplaces
I'm sure everyone is well aware of the innumerable assets sold on various 3D marketplaces that bear brand logos, copyrighted product design, and such. How come these people who sell them don't get sued? It's not like it's hard for large companies to just contact the marketplace administration and ask for the sellers… -
