As soon as I got back from TI3 I wanted to try my hand at my first Dota 2 item. I'm pretty obsessed with rocks so I thought I would go with an Earthshaker totem. One of the problems I'm running into is coming up with an interesting base to hold up the totem while maintaining a minimal number of tris because I've just about…
Anyone know how I can switch on trajectory lines for a biped in cycle mode (In Place Y mode)? I've searched everywhere man and I can't find out how to get around the fact the object properties > trajectories is greyed out. Note: the trajectory button on the display tab doesn't work in the same way. After watching a…
Finally learned to texture. Can't say I'm completely happy with the result. I did a rough attempt at baking (not the proper way, simply by shading in photoshop). I did remove the gloss effect, however, and that is a step in the right direction. 384 faces is final count. I don't want to spend too much longer on this guy, as…
Hello @zenonithus , This initially sounds like a graphics card issue to me. Can yo make sure you have the latest driver for your graphics card installed as well as running the latest build of Toolbag (308). If you are using previous versions of the software then you may be running into issues with the reload and auto…
Acumen: dont worry about hijacking - it actually helps me understanding how others suffer or work with the UV stuff. I was not aware of the stitch thing either even though I know max for many years, see: http://boards.polycount.net/showthread.php?t=60553&page=5#116 even I made a screenshot :) I wrote some experiments that…

@zachagreg I know how the LOD colour coding works, sorry for giving you the impression that was a mystery to me too. Here's a screenshot with just quad overdraw on (full 3D grass blades).... I've watched a number of tutorials on grass and none ever mentioned "alpha mipping" or "normal skewing". Anyway, just for the sake of…
I am honestly pretty stoked for that to drop, despite the knowledge that it's fake. I just hope its not another one of those choppy, ghetto-rigged, plastic fakes that have popped up in the past. If he's gotten a team of artists together to really make a cg trailer, than I am super excited to see that... As far as co-op…
Image panning lag on windows is indeed a bug. Unfortunately not much can be done about it right now. The bug is in GTK that GIMP uses to draw windows and widgets and the GTK is a separate project from GIMP. As far as I've heard, this should be fixed when GIMP is ported to GTK 3 (which will by itself also bring proper…
Hahaha well man, one of those dell 30in screens will set you back about $1500 alone.
