Re: Sketchbook: GED
yeah I dont think I get what your saying. I found a setting in max's uv tools under "options" that says "use custom bitmap size" so I changed the numbers there to 256 by 128 and that looks like it might have worked to get me the correct aspect ratio. -
Re: gambling on your games :)
I avoid gambling unless it's just a poker game with friends or a tournament (came in 25th out of over 120 people last time). I just don't trust myself to play the slots or the tables since I know I'll spend way too much money. -

[ QUOTE ] Here's another tutorial for maya 8 and higher, i usually up the samples to 256 like he does and haven't seen any issues. http://www.game-artist.net/forums/spotli...chemist101.html [/ QUOTE ] Hah that's pretty interesting. fogmann noticed what the author of the tutorial apparently didn't.

Re: Canabalt - awesome flash game
2593, i think the trick is to not jump higher than you have to over the little box things so you don't accidently jump off a cliff. -
Re: Help me improve as an artist!
Your texture could be a single side of the crate and you would arrange each UV shell to use 100% of the texture. In 3dsmax you click on each face, then click "quick planar map".

Re: New 3D Nintendo portable announced: Nintendo 3DS
Okay, the word on the street is that it will be 230 pounds in the UK, and 250 Euros in mainland Europe. I don't think that is an official announcement, but European retailers have begun listing it at those prices. Those prices aren't as rape-tastic as most people probably thought they would be. They're probably both higher… -
Re: ps2 asset budget help?
i think that ps2 using 256x256 ( loads of them for a character ) would be ok. What i tend to see , is dense polygon meshes ( metal gear solid 3 ) and small sets of textures , 128x128 for boot , hand, pocket, 256x256 face , etc.. So characters , really depending on what you are aiming for thou , id guess 7000 triangles .… -
