Re: DS Texture Memory
Well you have those 512kb of actual graphics memory, where you can store textures, meshdata and some other things needed to be stored. the memory a 256x256 texture will take depends on how you choose to store it, there are a varied ways to do that and the best way I believe is a paletted texture for the best usage. -
Re: Character Polycounts in Film
Backface determination happens automatically, it's a by-product of winding order. Points that make up a polygon are either specified clockwise or counter clockwise, and when they face away, their winding order is the inverse, so automatically aren't facing the camera. If a model of a sphere has 5000 polygons, 2500 will… -
Re: "Realtime" mesh displacement mapped and animated
Wrath: "what exactly are you showing off here?" - Well, i think you know better than me how much pain in the ass skinning can be (checked your site) - i like the example of tube, which show what the transformations created by bones actually are - just subdivide it enough and you wont be able bend it believably - no matter… -
Re: Basement hall [WIP]
Here ya go! I'll definetly post more wires and textures as I get closer to finishing, which is real soon. Alot of the meshes, I just import into Crysis and instance them around, so I don't really have a full scene in max. But, according to Crysis, this scene is about 10,000 tri's at the moment. There are stuff that I still… -
Re: Forza Motorsport 2
Oookay, i bought the 250GTO and wtf??!?? It doesnt have any tunable parts apart from tyre pressure. I dunno but i tought it was throughbred racecar, if you look closely there is even evidence under the "bumpers" (hint hint jack lift supports). Just maybe in 60s they didnt fine tune their cars depending on track and… -
Re: urban environment WIP
@ GCMP and anyone else who is interested in more texturing stuff :) Here I did a quick breakdown of some objects' texturing. For other objects it looks similar. For architecture, as mentioned before, there are mostly multiple IDs that use tiled textures that are blended with image mask or vertex color. Texture sizes are… -
Re: PM's Environment studies...
I haven't tried too much of modular pieces in UT3, but aren't, say, 16 meshes with 256 shadowmaps are as heavy on memory and calculations as 1 mesh with 1024 shadowmap? In any case, for this building a shadowmap can be even 1024. Ideally 2048, but it may come out not bad with 1024. For even better result UVs for shadow map… -
Re: A short introduction....
As promised, here is a little plane I made my first semester at Digipen (October 0f 2003). Good things? Bad things? Open to criticism. I textured it with two different maps. I now realize I could have made them on 256, opps. Ignore the cheesy background map! They are not great, I know, but I am still learning. Not to… -

[ QUOTE ] Yes, Atkins works for weight loss... so do tapeworms. [/ QUOTE ] LOL Truthfully, the best way to get in better shape and health is to combine both a healthy diet with exercise. Fad dieting alone is fine for some people, for short term, "getting started", but all you're really doing is creating a "skinny fat…
