I've been a fan of your page for quite a while kat. :D I downloaded the plugin for Max 8 from your site. Anyway - yes, as I've said... the source is indeed from 1999. I am guessing this was even before TiCal or Chris Cookson ever touched the code. What do you mean by "hit and miss"? The Max 6 version works with 6, 7 and 8.…
arshlevon: Thanks for the suggestion, but unfortunatley it isn't that.:poly134: MoP: I used to get those bugs on Maya 6/7, but they aren't as frequent on 2008. I'll try out some of the suggestions you made, see if that helps. Thanks:) The problem that I mentioned can sometimes be restored by shutting down Maya and…
My mum tries to understand what I do, but I don't think she truly does. My dad doesn't have a clue about what I do, but will try impress other people with it (even though he's far from impressed himself) by claiming that I'm a graphic designer. There are people that are genuinely interested in what I do when I tell them…
Beautiful stuff, I've been meaning to make time to say so for a while. I always like that your fantasy stuff has an oily opulence to it, it probably reminds more people of Frazetta and Boris than can put a name to the origin of that familiarity. It works well for you though, theres always a rich sense of mythology that…
thanks a ton for the crits!...based on yer feedback I've totally re-done the body topology and am still dialing in the textures accordingly: shaved off 3K triangles in the process (woot!) as an aside, butt_sahib, I checked the proportions on everything and I'm 4" off total sign width (regulation stopsigns are 30" across at…
First post for a long time lurker. Greets to everyone. :) I've been working over some rocks lately and thought I'd add my 2 cents. This is non-procedural, but the Clay Tubes brush in Zbrush with a square alpha works wonders for rough stone/rock shapes. It takes a bit of practice to get them looking right, as evidenced by…
i don't mind them working here as long as they: A) learn some english B) don't have 7 sick offspring taking all medical care and government aid C) get my friggin order correct just this once (see A) plus I see expanding our borders as a better plan than building a wall. if their government sucks that bad, just take it. if…
Hey guys I've been using these since maya 7 when they first came without lag, I think the default load time for the context sensitive menu is about half a second. It would be great if there was no load time at all but I think all the menus in maya take half a second to load. If you're seeing a black mouse trail it's…
[ QUOTE ] You can't install OSX on a 5+yr old mac and expect it to run well. Why should Windows be any different? [/ QUOTE ] yes, yes you can install OSX on a 5+yr old mac.. in fact it comes on 5+yr old macs OSX came out in 2001 it just took windows 7 years to copy it. i don't mind vista, its just a copy of OSX, which i…
you're trying to compete for the kind of job everyone is after. are you really prepared to work as hard as these late teens/early twentysomethings who seem to practise 24/7 and would die for an entry level job? everyone and their dog is trying to become a modeler and it makes one quite easily replaceable. in an adolescent…
