I checked the files you sent me via PM. I was able to open your high-poly meshes (not without difficulty, even inside 3DsMax/Maya), however 9,5 millions of triangles is way too much for the 3D view of Designer. I would not advise to link your HP meshes with such as high polycount. Or at least don't try to load it in the 3D…
To get an idea of the performance penalty, you might have a look at some benchmarks. Office 2007 benchmarks seem to run a lot slower under Vista: http://www.xpnet.com/iworldtest/ I expect polycounters would be more interested in 3D performance... Tom's Hardware has some benchmarks for Max and Maya:…
Johny's right. If you're good enough, work will find YOU. However, I think that your portfolio would really have to be super fucking good for that to happen, and getting super fucking good at 3d is easiest to achieve through actual industry work... only my opinion though. Just keep at your 3d, and do as much networking as…
Hey there polycount. First timer here. A super quick intro to this, essentially trying to go from freelance/contract 3D character work to a big-boy studio job :P I figured a start to finish project was a good way to get my portfolio started, or refreshed depending on how you look at it. QUICK NOTES: I am colorblind, if you…

Hey Polycounters, This is a personal project I have been working on. It's a Dragon Wing Frost Bow. Currently I am trying to finish up the model but before I even start calling it a "finished" design I want to get some feedback and critiques from the community. I won't be able to touch this project until another 3-4 days so…

https://www.facebook.com/groups/Aus3D/ Hey guys, I want to use this awesome forum to shamelessly give a shout out to my new Facebook group that I am hoping will catch on. I noticed there are a few Facebook groups currently, Lunchcrunch for example (which may or may not be around for long by the looks of it) but none that…
