I posted this in the other thread, but I would like to make a knew one that is specifically for the topic. I've been thinking of using spherical coordinates to describe my normalized bump maps. I believe you could do this practically by rotating a spherical coordinate system around the Y axis and adjust you angle values to…
how the fudge? as I remember Deamons Souls and what I've gathered from Dark Souls is that the characters ingame don't use your PSN ID rather some bogus name you come up with ingame. and when meeting other people, you never get to know they PSN ID, not even in the Players Met tab on the XMB. what hax are you people using to…
Just be careful. There seems to be a lot of shit SSD's out there. I believe RenderBoxx is using Intel SSD's. If I were to get one right now, I'd look there first. That, and read lots and lots of reviews. Two Samsung Spinpoint F4 drive in Raid would be sweet. I have one and it's plenty fast for me right now. Raptors were…
@PogoP @OXFFF Thanks! Just using the default settings so far. I'm planning to finish this today if all goes well, and go over post processing and possibly redo the lighting. Good call about the SSR, I'll see if I can find better values for it (let me know if you have any advice on this!) I did have to tweak some roughness…
Was GoZedding stuff from ZB2018 to Max2017 and it was going great. Decided to uninstall ZB4R7. Revo asked me if I wanted to uninstall GoZ, I clicked no. Uninstall finished. Opened ZB2018 and GoZ doesnt see 3dmax. I cant force reinstall because ZB only sees Blender. Just to make stuff more difficult I have a Medion gamming…
Also if you keep you eye out you can normally get a similar HDD that's 2TB for around $80, so only $20 more than the one you have picked. Also make sure to look at reviews for the power supply to make sure that it's reliable, there are power supplies out there that while they may seem good can be unreliable and totally fry…
It doesn't have to be 500GB, unless you can afford it. You can consider smaller capacities. You usually use a SSD as your OS and software drive. If you take all the software that you plan to use in your career (including game engines) it shouldn't take up more than 128GB. For general data storage you have the 1TB hard-disk…
If refelection probes are cubemaps like I think they are, and you're trying to make a reflective floor, I would lookk at implementing SSR instead. Screen Space Reflection is a knockoff reflection effect that produces a better result than cubemaps but it has issues. If you you use it on a floor then none of those issues…
So I'm going to buy 2 sets of http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820148212 to go to 8 GB DDR2800MHz Ram. I'm curious about the SSD tho. I currently have a pretty slow internal hDD and a 750GB External fro backing up. I'd defenitly like to get a new internal drive with more space, something like a 1TB, but…
I'd stay away from Comic Sans. Not because it's a bad font (fuck you, Comic Sans haters), but because it's not designed for professional use. It was developed to have easy readability, especially for kids. This is noticeable in how similar the lowercase a is to a handwritten cursive. I'd say either make images so you know…
