Hey polycounters, quick note on the scale of master chief. Quote from the Halo Wiki. " Master Chief stands about seven feet (2.13 m) tall and weighs 1,000 pounds (450 kg) in armor; without it, he stands six feet, seven inches (2 m) tall and weighs 287 pounds (130 kg)."
I just dropped by to let you know I made the STG 44 low poly. Here are some images: Model has 11 135 tris and you can view it here stg44 (View in 3D) (Just switch to clean shading to get rid off the grid texture) Now I start finishing the SVD.
Just remember that the 16th and 17th is the weekend of carmageddon so I truly don't know how bad the traffic will be that weekend. 405 from the 10 to the 101 is closing down (which is quite a distance and quite the congestion already) so you might want to do it somewhere else or possibly even reschedule...just a heads up…
Tried messing with it a bit more. Changing it to an unlit, additive material took it down to 27 'base pass' shader instructions and 111 vertex shader ones. That definitely sounds much more efficient. Anyway - should I sort of disregard the amount of vertex shader instructions, and only pay attention to the other number (59…
Hi Sammy 101, If you PM me ill send you my skype name. I'm on most of the day (Time zone +01:00), but i have more time to chat in the mornings. Im a huge substance fanatic, and if you want to discuss substance im all for it. (I'll learn from it as well ;) ) Cheers
[ QUOTE ] green tooth isn't that hard of a image to make, seems a bit silly to make a file for everyone to use. and depending on on the model, greentooth might look a tad different than others. [/ QUOTE ] tru, but consider the one in Xenobond's avatar. compare to Valandar's. lots of variations... it was just a thought....…
[ QUOTE ] They have a 6-game $1200 bundle, ha. [/ QUOTE ] How much do the damn games cost for this system ?!? I thought the system was $400 (for the expensive model with all the peripherals), which would mean each of those 6 games costs an average of at least $133! WTF?!? Does the bundle come with a 32" television or…
Yes sadly that's a weakness of Bush's. You'd think in his 8 years of tyrannical rule he would have gotten past dictator 101. Incidentally it would have solved the Guantanamo problem also. EDIT: If anyone is interested in a translation of what he yelled and when... [ame] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HWt3-kPBQ4A[/ame]
Mileage: 1823.2 Time to hit the road for the second to last leg of this little escapade. Still haven't decided whether I want to take the coastal 101 or inland on 5... 11+ hours of driving vs 8+ hours. "The view" isn't so much a concern as "how damn tired I am when I get to Arcata".
