Hey, quick question, how important is 64 bit? (any os) I really want 4gb ram so thats one pro of 64. I have the choice of getting 32 bit/64 maya and max but I have, currently, pretty old Vista home basic sp1 32 bit (I know I know..) I don't want to install anything until I make up my mind? I mean..if I get 32 bit of any of…
Hey people. I hope this issue hasn't been answered a 100 times. I searched this thread and the forum in general but did not find any usefull information to 32 bit normalmaps, which I guess are a large part of my problem. I'm expeirencing some issue with the new toolbag, although I have to admit I have encountered such…
Just make sure you define what you mean by "-bit". 8 bits per pixel (bpp) = 256 colors. 8 bits per channel (bpc) = 16 million colors = 24 bpp color (8 bpp red, 8 bpp green, 8 bpp blue) or 32 bpp if you add alpha channel. 16 bits per pixel = 65,556 colors. 16 bits per channel = a lot of fucking colors = 48 bpp color. Used…
Vista 32 (what comes on the majority of laptops) is limited to less than 4gb of RAM just like Windows XP. There is a "3gb switch" for both XP and Vista (just Google "3gb switch" and your OS of choice). The limitation is a 32-bit OS, not XPvs.Vista. Secondly, Vista uses more RAM than XP, so not only does Vista not really…
Although I haven't experienced one in person yet I'm thinking that 32 inch 4k would be an indeal size. Like Dell UP3214Q or Asus PA328Q. They are both wide gamut displays though, which is part of the reason they are quite expensive, but I'm sure there will be cheaper sRGB versions soon. As far as the 32 inch BenQ I'm sure…
I've used two monitors of two different resolutions and screen types for awhile, even back when I used a 32" 1920x1080 with my 1366x768 laptop. Now I use a 32"(1920x1200) and 22"(1680x1050). I can't comment on eye strain, just because my second monitor is nothing more than a place for me to move windows to, like UDK's…
Pixel art is amazing. One of the things I love a lot about pixel art is the dithering technique- that optical illusion of value made by various checkerboard patterns, sometimes using only two colors. I set out to make a dithering shader in UDK, for this 3D pixel art game I want to make- I was thinking it could help me sell…

I have both 32-bit and 64-bit versions of 3DS Max 2009 on my system, yet ever since I installed them, the 64-bit version will not save the settings I input into the Viewport > Configure Driver options. Clearly you want to have them at 1024 and 512 with match bitmap as close as possible checked on for viewport glam... BUT…
About the 256 levels, in another thread someone actually pointed out something that I thought was quite thought provoking. When we work in 8 bit colorspace, you only have 256 levels of any given value, so wouldn't that neglect any pressure levels above that since you can't have decimal values unless you paint in an 16 or…
