Re: Bicycle Suggestions
MTB'er here, I can only speak for what Ive ridden recently, my Felt Edict Nine 60 2013, but it definitely hits on most of your needs. I bought it from a local bike shop (up in snohomish) at the beginning of the year for 1600. I bought it with cross-country style riding in mind, and have since put hundreds of trail miles on… -
Re: Portal 2
Yes, although I think that was mainly from the combination of "retro" aesthetics with the delightful humor. I could easily imagine Jonas Venture's voice coming over the loudspeakers. The design of those sequences actually gave me more of a Bioshock 1930's vibe, although I think they are supposed to be around the 60's.… -
Re: M4A1-S Ghost
Weapon finish has been updated, now with more overall contrast and improved alpha channel. Also I discovered a thing about levels of the alpha for anodized multicolor (didn't tested other styles yet) style. Range for specular level actually goes all the way to 160, not 127 as guide on counter strike blog mentioned. Values… -
Re: So I finally got a new vc and played Doom III
I got a new vid card about a month ago and my interest in Doom 3 was rekindled as well. I finally finished it last week and have been playing DM on occasion as well. I agree with Irritant; great atmosphere and mindless, fun zombie killing. It still manages to scare the hell out of me as well. Here's the card I bought:… -
Re: Help with finishing my high poly sculpt in zbrush to tile.
I haven't figured out a way to use the move tool with specific units, and eyeballing it won't really work for tiling textures. I have had moderate success using the offset option in deformations but it has it's own weird quirks as it can only offset 100 units at a time, and it has a weird convention for the value of those… -
Re: TetraPaint - 3D Painting application
Ah, I see what you're saying. Not positive if that's just an artifact of the preview itself or not - I'll look at how I'm handling the offset there from centerpoint. Basically as PS brushes become softer, they actually get larger than the actual brushsize. A 100pixel solid brush is actually 100pixels wide - but a 100pixel… -

Re: Hardware: The life of a Athlon XP system
I have and old AthlonXP machine that I just bought 2 gigs of RAM and a new processor for. The got the fastest processor that the board would support. It has an Nvidia 6800XT graphics card. The RAM and proc upgrades made a huge difference and only cost me about $130 total. It's almost like having a new machine. It's a… -

Re: Cleaning a 3DS Max scene
OK, when I wrote the question I remembered the word "garbage" and a google search gives me the Max Lister command gc(). Unfortunately it doesn´t do the trick. Any other idea to reduce the file size of a saved Max scene? The scene consist of three Characters of moderate polycount (around 5000 Polys) and two Bipeds and a…
