Re: Creation Engine and others
imagine having hundreds if not thousands of people working on your product in your engine. imagine you have built the tools, the pipeline, the documentation and all that that individual onboarding is somewhat quick and easy. now imagine switching those hundreds if not thousands of people over to a new engine. lets just… -
Re: Portal Update
This stuff is awesome, here's a montage of some of the stuff that's been pulled from the BBS during the night: http://img63.imageshack.us/img63/9306/portalasciilarge2.png And someone on the steam forums posted a nice recap of the events, for those wondering what the hell is going : -Portal gets surprise update yesterday… -

Re: [Maya] Duplicated objects losing material connections
Interesting. So I just tried replicating your test in an empty Maya scene. I created 4 blinns and a plane. I assigned each blinn to face on the plane, then duplicated 4 times. I then manually deleted all the faces with one of the blinn assignments per duplicate as you show in your test. I then saved the scene, and… -
Re: What happened to modding?
A number of factors have affected the Mod Scene: Number of tools released for modding - individual engines have their tools but there are fewer engines nowadays than before. An Abundance of usable game engines - I think this is the biggest. Back in the Quake 3 era, you didn't have actual game engines available at… -
Re: Having Computer Problems
Running RAM with different specs in the same machine is asking for trouble. Ideally all RAM sticks in your PC should be the same brand, size, speed, model number, and even lot number (so that they all have the exact same specs). That's why adding new RAM to old RAM is always risky, sometimes it works ok, sometimes it… -
Re: PS3 Debut
Vassago's numbers are a bit inaccurate, at least with regard to the PS3 specs. The CPU has a listed floating ops throughput of 218 gflops. The 2 tflops number comes from some 'fuzzy math', adding the CPU and GPU numbers together (like the old Atari Jaguar "64-bit" console). Anyway, how can you debate something like this,… -
Re: UV Mapping Multiple Maps
Take this advise with a pinch of salt as it may not be 100% accurate . What I would do is take the Head faces and put a material ID on them(ID 4 for the head and 5 for the body for example),basically so you can use the select material ID fuction in the editable mesh/poly rollout modifier and it saves you having to slect… -
Re: Modeling: Maya Vs. Max
i was looking for that, too. i found something and changed some lines. it works on state changes and works fine: // Autosave Maya scene // // - add this 2 string to usersetup.mel in your scripts folder(if you don't have the file, create one..) // // source AUTOSAVE; // AUTOSAVE(); // // - the autobak files will be saved to… -
Re: Zbrush Scale - Scene setup/Habits/Professionalism
ZBrush tries to make its unit system as mystical and incomprehensible to mere mortals as its inner workings and UI design choices, but with a few tweaks you can understand (at least as well as I currently do, for however much it's worth) how it handles and attempts at near every turn to completely mess up a model's scale.…
