Re: Sewer WIP
Its coming along! I wouldn't worry too much about the smoothing on the vent pipe, its probably not unwrapped yet and the smoothing is breaking where the UV seams are, once its properly unwrapped it should be ok. Yea keeping to a grid is key. In max I snap each objects local pivot to the grid and then snap the tile edges to… -
Re: Soviet bunker phone circa 1986
Looks like you passed the diffuse right into a normal map filter? It would be better to make an actual B/W height map instead. That way your sticker wouldn't come out all bumpy and lumpy. Way too much wear and tear on an item that wouldn't really see that much action. Phones where put in semi protected places they cause… -
Re: Holy Hell! - Just a rant
haha :) I feel for you. when I moved here from France, local quebec reality hit me hard on the whole high speed internet thingy. Despite all the issues of Bell's support, I have to say I never had any severe internet connection issues. And latency is actually pretty ok for DSL, but maybe that's because I live downtown. But… -
Re: Getting used to Max from Maya
There are several options for moving the pivot around in max. To the right of the scale tool you can find the coordinate type and coordinate center setting. Combinations of these two determine the position and orientation of the pivot. The default setting is "view" for coordinates and "local" for the coordinate center. To… -
Re: Capt America
I was using this as a ref for the helmet, is that what you where thinking of or where you thinking ww1? The British had a helmet like this and I have seen cap in it before, but I choose to stick to the standard US infantry helmet for ww2. I can see where it is off on the front, it needs more of a "bill" protrusion and a… -
Re: Building a computer
How much you save depends a lot on where you go dude. I know of a few places around my locale with very reasonable part prices who will also put a whole system together for you for $50. Thought I'd mention that if saving money was your only motivation in learning to build a PC, you might be better off just looking around… -
Re: Yet another computer thread.
if thats the case just try to concentrate on video card - and a mobo that can use DDR3. So if AMD is really cheap there, get the AM3 socket -- I think that is the DDR3, get the nice mobo and the cheaper CPU, IMO when using AMD. Usually the cheaper versions of a run of CPU's are the best ones for overclocking - such as the… -
Re: EA: Fighting with your pocket book
Yeah man, don't put Daz out of a job! But really, boycott's rarely have any effect, unless they're conducted by a huge (and I mean HUGE), coordinated group of people who are also backing up the boycott with press releases and media coverage. And usually, it's the media coverage that has more of an impact than any actual… -
Re: Official Windows on Apple solution
[ QUOTE ] I could go on all day about this. [/ QUOTE ] I can tell. I guess your method works great if all of your clients are people who stay current with hardware, OS and software trends. One of my clients is a public University with 35,000 students and many faculty who can't or won't upgrade - some of them literally run… -
Re: worst toothache ever
I had my bottom wisdom teeth taken out last week, and while i'm mildly resistant to the anaesthetics and severely phobic of anything to do with teeth breaking, i actually laughed out loud (to my best ability, given the hand in my mouth and numbness) when he and his assistant had trouble getting my second tooth out. They…
