Depends what you want/need. I just got my wife a Gateway for $600. Dual core Intel, and an ultra-brite screen. It works great for her and looks great. The battery life is also supposed to be really good on it. She hasn't ran it dead yet, so I don't know how long it will actually last. According to CNet, it will go 4 hours.…
Hello! Ive been looking for help with a project of mine. I am working on a mod for a Unity-run mobile game called Dragon Quest VIII. one part of my project is including adding a new model to the game acting as an armor set for the main character to display when wearing a specific Armor Set. for the purpose of this, I wish…
Couple points. 1. PC's are better than consoles. 2. The difference between the two is more than the actual hardware, its the mentality. 3.

Ah yes like mac's vs pc's. :) I've taken a similar route. I did my first serious work on lightwave actually, and I still keep some of its workflow and shortcuts in my max and maya hotkeys. From my experience Max and Maya are both very powerful programs, and both are can turn out absolutely stellar work. Max's largest…

Continued some with the roundtable room. Added in an old knight model. Updated the web build hosted on itch. Some screenshots: I decided to get…
Hey Talon, I can definitely help you out but before I hand you code did you look at listing 1 in the paper that is referenced from the blog post? When using the derivative map variant you simply replace the dBs and dBt in listing 1 with the code from the blog post -->…
I need to transfer UV from initial low poly to dynameshed mesh from Zbrush . I usually use Data Transfer modifier in Blender for this . It sometimes does subtle mistakes around UV seams but usually it still works fine for further detailing in Zbrush . Gemini tells me 3d max got a massive update in 2026.1 version and now…
