Re: 3ds Max Animation
Layers should work. I was testing this in another program mind you, but simply hiding the highres mesh was enough to make the system stop trying to calculate it whenever I transformed the rig. Weighting... yeah, if you're crashing at 500k you might need to try and find a way to transfer the weights assuming the low-poly is… -
Re: Group that formed modern Capitol Punishment now says "US Court System doesn't work"
Something more recent: Riker's Island. The Rock. Adult inmates refer to the savage juvenile building as "Vietnam." Actually a penal colony of 10 separate jails, the Rock is the second-largest confinement facility in the entire world. When it comes to putting people in cages Cali is king, but the Big Apple gives it a… -

Re: Watch Dogs: Holy shit.
Hehe yeah Mark I agree, it's a fine balance ... Still, I think that it's awesome when games have a photo mode giving full control on that kind of settings. Also sometimes it's great fun to simply walk around slowly in a game or engine tech demo with lens effects cranked up - like a movie director ! I think there can be a… -
Re: Another PC Upgrade Thread
@greevar: Currently I have a 550W or a 500W PSU - need to double check, but it's one of those two. Either way, I had a feeling having 2 cards would be too much for my system. @Artifice: I'll look into getting a 1GB model instead. Hopefully I can find one in-store [I generally dislike ordering hardware online]. I've heard… -
Re: Digital Camera for texture sourcing?
Thanks very much for all the responses. With your help i have wiki'd the crap out of all these fancy terms and now understand the following - Short/fast shutter speed is better for minimizing blur - F number = lens brightness and that combined with shutter speed determines exposure value - Aperture = depth of field To… -
Re: RIP Backup Partition
Just remember the cardinal rule of RAID: RAID 1 is not a backup! RAID 1 protects against hardware (the physical drive) failure only. If you accidentally delete a file, it's gone on both of the drives. If a file becomes corrupted, it's gone on both drives - etc. I use a 500GB RAID 1 to protect my work, but I make regular… -
Re: Affordable Windows Tablet to learn painting?
COUNT_CRUSHMORE It can be hard at first to draw while always looking at the screen and not the pen. For some people it can take a while to get used to. For me it only took a couple of days. A simple wacom drawing tablet will always be better than those <500$ windows tablets with pens. -
Re: LitSpheres in Max viewport
Just use Ravenslayer's grabviewport script (it's on my shader page) to grab at 5000px wide. Then you can get AA and high resolutions, which i think is the only reason you'd wanna render ?
