Re: Not adding to the Wiki?
I think it would be nice if the wiki was more image centric. I seem to recall some pages being like that on the old wiki, kind of like a portfolio but for tutorials. For the technical stuff there obviously will have to be a big wall of text, but for tutorial pages it would be nice if it was just big thumbnails. I don't… -
Re: Not adding to the Wiki?
Also, I know Quixel has their own Wiki, but could we make a subcategory for NDO somewhere? Not sure whether to put it in texturing or Normal maps. josh_lynch did some great tutorials on lesser known features in NDO that I feel would benefit the community. Cylinders in NDO:… -

Re: Not adding to the Wiki?
I would upload it at the original (highest) resolution, then use wiki formatting to make it as small as needed on the page. That way you can adjust the size easily.

Re: Not adding to the Wiki?
Honestly the best way for noobs to learn is by helping others or writing tutorials. I got my start in modding knowing little about 3d graphics and grew a lot by writing articles, it forced me to learn more about the finer points before committing anything to final, I'm sure you can attest to this. At least with a wiki (as… -
Re: Not adding to the Wiki?
Definitely this. I've used the wiki a ton in the past and still do, the biggest issue I have is how slow some pages are. Especially when you click a link and it doesn't open a new tab, just simply goes to the link and then when you want to go back, it takes just a long to reload the page. I agree also with kitty that is… -
Re: Not adding to the Wiki?
I personally love the colour scheme of the wiki (and forum). The categorising could use some improvement. For example, this page Could be merged with this page (if it's not already?) While the wiki is an amazing resource and has saved my ass so many times, Some of the pages need more content. and some pages have no content… -
Re: Not adding to the Wiki?
Yeah, I agree that the wiki is really slow. And I also think that open access is a great idea. But maybe there should be something like what EarthQuake proposed: Maybe I'm paranoid, but without that ad bots or trolls could get their hands on the wiki and all of a sudden the wiki is flooded with fake links to sites with…
