I don't think malcolm is crapping up this thread, but more trying to make a point... one I have to agree with - especially if its 'for fun'. If it's 'for fun', and not a game, then why even bother worrying about those 10 triangle sin the first place. I get it, you want to see what you can do with a triangle count well…
It would help if you could describe what era the film is from, 40s? 60s? 70s? Good Film Noir is always from the 40s, so anything like "High Sierra" or "Dark Passage" with Bogart is good. If you have AMC you may also have TCM, which is the temple for such stuff. They have a regular thing called "Darkness After Dawn", where…
I'm with Mojokey on this one, camera would work the best. Maybe a few cameras, one on your house, or one on a mail box. talk to your neighbors and see if they would be willing to help share the costs to net these little bastards. Or just stay up late, and follow them home. Knock knock... "WHAT IN THE HELL DO YOU WANT AT…
Moving this to GD as this isn't a request. Here is a good list of current UT3 mods over at moddb.com. My advice to you is that if you're after joining a mod team, you should know some basics about the engine and you should be an adequate artist. Show the team that you're dedicated and are really eager to join the team…

(although my foot pedal did snap, and thats when I bought a real foot pedal and rigged it up to RB) -1up.com, but it's also in the first link Xvampire posted at engaget. I couldn't find the url link…
Thank you! Sure no problem! The overall mesh was about 175k. I was aiming for more or less AAA polygon budgets. The body used a base mesh topology that I zwrapped to my high res, and I used the lowest subdivision for most of the body, and subdivided just the head(merging vertices on the border to avoid ngons). For the…
I need some help with this one - been experimenting for days and not getting anywhere. I am trying to attach an object to a character in a mufti player game, the object (yes a mover / kactor), I attach the object to a bone with a specific orientation and offset. All looks well when i run the map locally (e.g. within the…
A Friend's band is going to play @ Stubbs in June. And he wants to have an animation / music video ready by then. It's been awhile since I have been in Austin. and the studio I worked for has migrated to San Diego. I was hoping that perhaps out of the many austin-ites here... One may have a friend talented enough with cg /…
