Hello I am needing some computer related advice. I think I have a good rig currently although I have a major problem with it. It does sound, not a lot but I really need something soundless, or at least reeaaaally low sounding because with time this just got to my nerves. currently is this: i7 930 12g ram corsair dominator…

I've used Maya and Max for the past 8 years. Initially I hated Max, but came to love it after a long time of being forced to use it. I picked up Modo indie a week ago and I can't seem to find a real reason to make the leap from Max. I would probably choose it over Maya for modeling.
Hey guys, I want to export a at least 4k texture out of substance designer. I know that i can put "Base Parameters" higher to get 4/8/etc.k preview in Designer and than export the Bitmaps. For me this doesnt work, because the graph is more or less huge so Substance/my PC cant handle this. Is there any way or workaround to…
Thanks! :) I'm currently not at home so I don't have access to the mesh right now, although I had my flats on dropbox! I'll post the wires and a turntable tomorrow! For the interior, the bottle "holder" is just a plane, and each rail has like 8 tris each iirc. Not the greatest unwrap, but it works ^^ Thanks for the crits…

Hey guys, sorry for spotting this thread so late...I was curious to see how far Jim has gotten on this "PoS" game and stumbled across this thread in amusement. This is the real Ryan Fissenwert, yes the artist seen in the breakfast television video and the artist who made literally 90% of the art assets that you see in his…
Sucks to hear about all this gents, I still haven't made the change from sitting to standing desk and I think it will do wonders for me. I have increased the hell out of my mobility/exercising, still not extreme but enough to relieve the stress on my joints. I'll try to help with things I'm doing and maybe you guys can…
