DX11 HLSL Tesselation issue. 1BILLION POLYS (or not as it happens)
So I have started writing my own DX11 Tesselation shader, at a hope of looking at how they could be used for VFX. I started trying to get some basic tesselation working in Maya 2014 with the DX11 shader with viewport 2.0 and I am having some trouble with the domain shader. I think I am passing the right data sets through… -
Re: Cintiq for 3D Sculpting
I too have used cintiqs (and knockoff cintiqs) for many years. They are better than a standard tablet in every way for both painting and sculpting but as slosh says, theyre not essential. If you've got the money and the space then it's unlikely you'll regret buying a decent cintiq (22" or bigger) - it'll last you years and… -
Re: Review my Portfolio
Thanks for the great advice guys, I will make different models, I also intend to make some other stuff than just guns, been really interested in making some environment assets. I really appreciate your feedback guys. I agree 120% that not having Low Poly and textured stuff really sets me back so i will be working on them 1… -
Re: [P&P] - What Are You Working On? 2009 Edition!
Speaking as a skinny but toned individual, my ribcage does NOT poke out like that at all, especially near the bottom - the bottom of your character's ribcage is too wide side to side, for one. And my back muscles completely cover the ribcage. The only place you can actually see ribs are on the side in front of my lats and… -
Re: Dual monitor color calibration profiles?
The major issue I struggle with when calibrating is the correct luminance. Most articles/discussion I read state you should be trying ot work with a luminance of 120 cd/m2 but I often find that to be quite dull.(Using an Xrite i1 Pro on a Dell U2410 Monitor btw). Considering most people won't tweak their screens it I'm… -
Re: UE3 PC Workstation Assembly
be aware the more overpowered the PSU, the less efficient it is used. I measured my system at work (quad core, 4 gb ram, 1 hdd, 1 dvd, gf 9600 GT passive) and the whole system sucks only about 120 Watts (minus screen) at full load (prime95 + gpu raycasting) of course the "non passive" latest & fat versions of the graphics… -
Re: What camera do you use for texture photos?
Higher megapixels doesn't always mean higher quality. http://blogs.smugmug.com/onethumb/2007/02/08/the-megapixel-myth-youre-getting-ripped-off/ Sites like Steves Digicams (I think thats the name) have reviews on every camera ever made. Just check for deals in local stores or on www.dealnews.com and look up a review on it.… -
Re: Microsoft open source OS theoretical discussion
: shrugs : Bill Gate != Microsoft. He might be the chairman but if the companies direction was 100% up to him there would be no X-Box, no Mactopia, no Microsoft Game Studios, etc. He was a clever businessman in the the 80s, but now he's like the previous Nintendo CEO. A dinosaur unwilling to change his ways and views of… -
