Re: KONY 2012
I though the video was very well done but I couldn't help but feel like the purpose of this is all wrong. For a start making Kony "famous" is not right. He is meant to be infamous, the posters make it look like a new presidential candidate to vote for and when people look it up and find that the original communication… -
Re: Interchangeable Equipment
Regardless of how many "items" your character ends up having, the goal is to get all those textures combined into a single texture sample so you don't end up with more draw calls per character. I've mentioned the BLIT process before, but I'm not sure if some of you are checking it out. Some variation of this technique is… -
Re: The polycount tourist information thread.
The coolest thing I saw was just 2 hours outside London...jump into a train to Portsmouth and visit the HMS Victory. It's amazing how big this thing is, and it's made almost entirely of wood. The British Museum is also very recommended. What's also really cool (especially since you're an env guy Wahlgren), St. Paul's… -
Re: Report problems with the new forums here
Woo Hoo new features YEA! I like the green/black type in the reply boxes, I vote that be the default text scheme. It feels more PC then grey on gay. The new look is very web 2.0 (do we have Brome to thank for that ha!) not quite candy mac though. Not that its bad, its just different. Glad to hear you guys are working on… -
Re: aquaboy
Yes vincent I love boots Yeah Ikraan it could have used a tad weathering on the suit. I keep that in mind for later on Neo, for bloomish fun just ask Poop! You simply need to grab the brightest parts of your image and blur that. It can turn out REALLY cheap so, be sure to be gentle with the effect. Poop made a nice little… -
Re: bad memory
that aside, I think it's common for most people to have random memory lapses like that. That may not mean it's healthy or normal (I'm not a doctor), but at least you're not alone. I think your perception of the dom war being a few months ago and your forgetting a thumb drive on a desk aren't really related. Time definitely… -
Re: Is Maya taking over Max?
"I was very restrained, Daz. I lost over 2 hours of good work to your favourite piece of software today." IT is NOT my "favourite piece of software". I would take XSI over Maya or Max any day of the week. Save often incrimentally and you wouldn't have lost 2 hrs of work. Your tone sounds like youre blaming me for your own… -
Re: Here We Go Again -- Kennedy Assassination Game
After some more thinking, I want to know why people are outraged at this? It is not becuase it is a representation of killing - we are all happy to play Halo/GTA/Doom/etc. It cannot be because it is killing based on history. There are countless war games. Black Hawk Down was based on actual events. Is it because it is a… -
My thoughts on Normal Baking by with UV matching
My thoughts on Normal Baking by with UV matching. Another post here in Polycount talked about the difficulty in baking perfect normal maps for models with low poly holes and tube shapes. But it didn't address an important alternative IMO. (I didn't see it in the wiki) A way I go about avoiding distortions is by matching… -
Re: Quick Question about modular environment modelling and unreal
It kind of depends on if you want to move the pieces around after you import. If you don't see a need to have a bazillion little pieces, might as well stick them all together. The point of modular design is to have a library of pieces that can be mixed and matched easily to make something look new and unique, but really is…
