Re: DSLR help?
Ended up getting a Nikon D3200 from JB. Body, 18-55mm, 16gb SD card, carry bag, lens filter. All of that priced separately would be $607 and I got it for $420 :) Need to go to Teds and get a $50 lens hood and maybe a better bigger carry bag that can hold the camera while the lens is attached and maybe a better strap. So… -
Re: Fantasy Warrior
Hey, as promised here are some pictures of the "final" (for now) model, wireframes and some realtime renders from marmoset (which I couldn't quite get to work like I wanted but good enough!) C&C is welcome, though I doubt I'll make any major changes now. I forgot to write down the final polycount, but this entire scene was… -
Re: Nvidia vs ATI
Good news for nVidia buyers: Nvidia cuts Fermi prices once again Most notably the GTX470 has had it's price reduced by fair margin. Making it a direct competitor for HD5850, maybe even the preferred choice over HD5850(due CUDA, PhysX). GTX465 got a cut, but it's pretty useless since GTX460 is better in every way. Some… -
Re: Pc completely freezing when playing games - advices needed
I realized this a few months ago, but I ignored it because I rarely play games and it does this just when I'm playing. Anyways, I opened up the pc for checking if the cooler is set up properly, and I found an incorretly set up leg. I fixed it,put back to the proper place, position, and things went worse. Now the cpu has… -
Re: Natural Selection 2 alpha for preorders tonight, time is ticking
Lets not forget the financial burden suffered by small studios. From the figures I read they had about 16000 collector editions sold split among the 4 developers. That's about 600,000$. Sounds like just the right amount of cash to keep development moving forward. Not too little, not too much. I Have my own project I'm… -
Re: System Shock 2
remakes are definately quite not legal :) , spicing up the old game with new graphics cannot be stopped though, and there's quite some room to do so: a character in the original was mostly optimized down heavily to one single 128x256 texture, the artificial limitation is at 256x256 textures, but you can use as many… -
Re: maya 2011 lag
This might be the ATI driver issue with most of the newer drivers, you can revert to some older drivers or you can use this trick here vvvv *Note this doesn't work for the 6000 or higher series cards because they aren't supported by the older drivers. 11.3 supposedly removes the selection lag issue. -
Re: Solid Modelling - Modelling for machining
You could try modeling it in whatever package you normally work with, then importing to Fusion 360, and converting it to a T-Spline model. If the mesh is heavily triangulated, it may have issues, but results may vary between file formats and the complexity of the mesh. I've often used 3d studio max to get models in to… -
Re: Polycount Ranks enabled
For those interested I think this is the ranks with the number of posts required (confirmation required) 0 null 25 vertex 50 line 100 spline 250 triangle <------ RAPTORCWS has proved this wrong. Maybe 200? 500 polygon 750 polycounter 1300 dedicated polycounter 1900 card carrying polycounter 2500 veteran polycounter… -
Re: Cole - NextGen Character attempt for portfolio.
Hey man, sorry it took me a bit. By middle scale details I mean what people are going to see right after their brain processes the silhouette. Human vision works from large to small shapes extracting info layer by layer if you will. If someone was trying to recognize your character in a crowd first they'd look for someone…
