Re: Entry Level Graphics Tablet
The Bamboo Fun M is 199 on the Wacom Store, and £134 in the Student Store. With the wonderful (not) exchange rate on the Euro at the moment, it works out far more expensive on the Wacom site. It is a fair bit more than the small, but I strongly recommend not getting the small. You'll regret it I think. Also, think of it… -
Re: YANBI - Yet Another NOrmal Baking Issue
I rechecked my cages (yes, i am using them) and made them bigger to be sure that it fits. Nothing got better. Oh and there is no AO yet, just a plain white with a normal map applied in max viewport... (Render in Vray doesnt look much better though) Also compared the normal map with the lowpoly / highpoly models and if u… -
Re: Please, critique my portfolio models. I will give you candy! :)
Just got the mischievous ricky gervais eyes. Anyway some people don't like to acknowledge it, but realism is the standard by which we judge something to be good or bad. That armor you made would look more impressive on a realistic looking figure. Just grab some reference from a site like this for example, sculpt a more… -
Re: Good headphones around $50.?
http://www.zalman.co.kr/eng/product/view.asp?idx=110&code=023 I got these, they are real 5.1 headphones (no emulation). The surround sound is quite good (although not perfect) and the general sound quality is good enough for normal music and gaming (don't expect high quality headphones for music listening though). Comfort… -
Re: beating the summer heat (warning: there's balls in here)
I couldn't agree more. I spent a few summers in AZ with my grandparents. I'll take 112 in the shade as long as its dry. Work is all AC all the time. Sometimes I have to wear a sweatshirt... so its a little too much at times. My place gets very little direct sunlight and stays pretty cool. Last night was the first night I… -
Re: [Technical Talk] - FAQ: Environment Modeling & Resources
I was looking around for destoryed building references and found this huge archive of war images. They helped me a lot, so I thought I would share:… -
Re: Hello PPU!
Someone I know who got to see some demos of this stuff a few months back said that Id tried to get Nvidia to integrate them into their cards. But it would have added around another $100 or so to the price. They also mentioned that this physics chips may or may not be showing up in the PSP3 or Xbox 2. Anyhow, their point… -
Re: Perspectiv drawing
Hands down for me the best tutorials on the subject are Scott Robertson's dvd's on Gnomon workshop. http://www.thegnomonworkshop.com/store/product/323/Basic-Perspective-Form-Drawing#.Uelgzc0deCo Start with "Basic Perspective Form Drawing". Feng Zhu also has some decent perspective drawing dvds on Gnonom for environments.… -
Re: Gears of War 3 - Character Stuffs
Somebody was asking about the wire frame for Hoffman. Here is a breakdown. You can see the triangle count but do know that what actually matters is the vertex count as seen by Unreal Editor here. Ideally for quite a few characters you do not cross 10k verts. Lots of the common enemies are anywhere from about 6k-8k verts.… -
Re: Learning anatomy
its not too bad you have outlined the shapes on that arm but the depth of form is not there yet, you just need to take the next step after this. Its hard to explain, Im no pro with anatomy myself. could be a good idea to check out ufc dudes and boxers/kickboxers etc to get a good build on this guy…
