Re: New PC build
disanksi: We've had some detailed disucssions about this here: http://www.polycount.com/forum/showthread.php?p=2348435#post2348435 Basically, a current gen 6 core i7 will be a little faster if you're maxing all 6 cores. If your app isn't well threaded and can't use more than 2 or 4, the 4790 will be a little faster. So it… -
Re: Budget Workstation
I think reddit buildapc or buildapcforme may be of better help with a super budget build. The only thing I would say when asking is that.. 1. You shouldn't need 550watts for that build. 400/450 should be more than enough. 2. The FX-6300 may be a better option vs. the i3-4160. Having 6 cores will be nice with… -
Re: to college or not to college?
Thanks for the links Rick. Hadn't seen some of those. Unfortunately I kind of just passed a plateau in CG, and all the work I do have is from before that (which means it sucks pretty bad, hah) and it's before I decided for sure I want to do environment art for games (so the models don't have game specifications). I'm… -
Re: [UDK] Jurassic Park (W.I.P)
As far as your camera move goes, I dont think you really need to take us over the car. Also, you could start the move from about 6 seconds in... those first 6 seconds arent being useful at all. When we approach the doors, they should be closed as first, but then open as we approach. Finally, the camera move could have… -
Re: MD3 Exporter for 3ds Max 2009
I've been a fan of your page for quite a while kat. :D I downloaded the plugin for Max 8 from your site. Anyway - yes, as I've said... the source is indeed from 1999. I am guessing this was even before TiCal or Chris Cookson ever touched the code. What do you mean by "hit and miss"? The Max 6 version works with 6, 7 and 8.… -
Weird lines appearing when using Subdivision modifier
I would like to know why these lines/artifacts appear when I add 6 levels of subdivision modifier in an object like this (I know it is probably a lot but I added 6 levels exaggeratedly so that the problem appeared). As a clarification, this is Blender 2.83, using an old red Matcap, I have applied the transformations,… -
3ds max UV questions
- Is there a way to mirror UV's across a XY/YZ/XZ plane, like the symmetry modifier? For example Let's say I have a 6 sided die, with each face of the die being composed of 10 polys. Let's say I organize the UV's on the 1 face. Is there any ways I can have max auto organize the polys on the face across from it (the 6 face,… -
From Fine Art to Computer Game
I just thought I would start a thread on Art History that looks like a computer game, call me an old fart I know! So could you post any imagery from Art History that inspires you. Could you also post any images that you think look a bit like they could have been made for a computer game. For example I think Grimshaw's work… -
