Re: Deciding on a Cintiq, or similar device.
It may depend on the tablet model fletcher but I'm waaay more precise with my cintiq than i was with my intuos 4, for accurate "gesture" curves it's so obvious it's ridiculous, I don't need to redo the gesture 6 times, I get in 1-2 try. I can see why some 2D animators use those. -
Re: [UDK] Dwarf Hallway
I was thinking it would look quite cool if i was able to create an arrow or two and stick them into the assets, just adding a bit more variation. A kind of fly through video of the scene made for the deadline (full res 1080p): [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8LbgMOosv3I"]ZBrush 2 - Week 6 Progress - YouTube[/ame] -
Re: 3ds max menus offscreen...
You can open your 3dsmax.ini (in the base 3dsmax folder) and look for lines like: [MtlEditorPosition] [RenderDialogPosition] The first 2 numbers after those will be the location of the window's top left corner in pixels, X Y. Change those to something like 0 0 and restart Max. The windows should appear in the top left of… -
Re: Per-pixel Anisotropic Highlights from normal map?
Here's my suggestion. (I haven't tried this, but it oughtta work...) 1. Transform PerPixelNormal into the same space as your tangent vectors. (if they aren't in the same space already) 2. Define PerPixelTangent as the cross product of Bitangent and PerPixelNormal. 3. Normalize PerPixelTangent. 4. If the dot product of… -
Re: Welding Verts--3DS
1.) rotate the view so that you can see the front better 2.) right click in that viewport and click "quickslice", you will see a dashed line where you can define your cut - make it at the 1st 1/4 of the model and rightlick to apply that should add a splitloop (easier though with polyboost, max2010 or some custom script) -
Re: Double smooth
Yeah, I've been using that double smooth method for 2-3 years now, a very nice trick. Although your poly counts explode. But with today's PCs, it's not a huge issue. Sometimes I do still use the regular methods, since double smoothing pinches or does weird things/doesn't work as well as default methods. -
Re: Dropbox alternative - "Copy", 20 gigs free
haha wow, four hours of constant Googling and tweaking and hair-pulling trying to get rsync to work, and your suggestion of BitTorrent Sync (http://labs.bittorrent.com/experiments/sync.html) worked in 2 minutes. Going to test this at the office tomorrow, but right now I've got my two laptops and my Android tablet syncing… -
Re: WOW disney is getting desparate
so i guess spawn was pretty bad cg-wise? anyway the trackrecord of that guy is impressive: abyss, red october, terminator 2, jurassic park, the mask ...! i wouldn't mind having these on my resume and yes, that movie looks like crap. madagascar trailers screamed crap aswell, so it might just be a very good copy -
Re: how would i make this shape? pic
I'm a max user and I would make that shape by simply creating a hedra and adjusting the parameters, shapes like these are built right in max. Then I would adjust the shape by using FFD Modifiers or lattice I believe it is for maya user's. example image from google of one hedra -… -
Re: Halo: Reach
meh, Halo was legit when it wasn't an MS megabeast. Second MS bought it I lost all interest, haven't touched it since they force Halo 2. Uninterested 100% in anything that comes out regarding that series, except the movie cus of Jacksons involvement, even that I am speculative about. LoTR was off the hook, everything else…
