Re: Vector images via Scaleform in Material Editor
It will impact performance slightly due to the RTT texture, don't have specific numbers for ya though. GFx has to draw, but what really makes GFx slow is action script, as well as vert count on vector shapes. I would give it a shot, it sounds like a cool idea. I would be ready to swap to high res bitmaps - which seems like… -
Re: Cintiq Companion
I doubt Wacom has anything to do with that. All Lenovo does is license Wacom tech. They can do whatever they want with it once they license it. For example, Microsoft licensed it and added to it to get what is in the Surface Pro. Lenovo is notorious for product delays. They probably hit a snag and are working it out. Wacom… -
Re: Art Test Dimensions
neither, it means you have to create your mesh at 5000 "native" resolution AND create a trimmed down version that uses around 15-2500 triangles and retains most of the original uv's, too. LOD = level of detail, gets swapped in/out depending on how close your mesh is to the camera. unless of course, they provide you with… -
Re: Ultimate tool - a call for UI coders
I have not tested it but what would be nice is some kind of a button that if you hold it the menu will temporarily swap to the mouse position so you don't have to move the cursor to the panel. As soon as you release the hotkey the toolbar hops back to where it was before. nice work though,- any info on the structure - like… -
Re: Enemy Territory Quake Wars - beta
[ QUOTE ] Best thing for these types of games ia getting a bunch of folk on skype together and then coordinating/slagging the shit out of each other as you play. [/ QUOTE ] I prefer Ventrilo over skype for gaming. Skype sometimes sucks bandwidth for weird things, not to mention ventrilo allows for other neat features, and… -
Re: I apologize for all Americans.
Many who attempt to sway people go about it poorly and for the wrong reasons. Often the most effective approach used by many in the world today is to give those opposed no choice. Tho I don't see that as effective when an intelligent balanced discussion can provide much to consider and agreements on common ground. O'Reilly… -
Re: gnomon gallery - blizzard
Haha no worries Pior. The pricing on your pieces weren't that bad. There were some that were pretty pricey for how small they were. Lets hope for another show in the future so I can snag one of yours that time :) . I don't remember the name of the piece that I wanted but I got a link from your portfolio site. This one is… -
Re: Art Deco Building (Long Beach, CA)
this is art deco... LAs full of it nice job on the model... i think the windows are good like this...modeling the bars etc can really help reduce need for higher-res maps...individual panes can really help for texture swaps etc breaking up repetition also helps stop that "moulded" look when they are completely normal… -
Re: Understanding Texel Density
[ QUOTE ] Another test that might be worthwhile is to run the scene in-engine with everything textured to a DDS file that has contrast-colored mips with text dimensions in each mip. Then you can see how far surfaces are mipping down, as you move through the level, very informative as to how many texels are really being… -
Re: PC Case modding?
I had planned to stick my constantly overheating router(after removing its casing) in the case of my main computer then dremel up a mounting bracket for the back. then swap out the power and reset button for some cool vandal proof switches. An idea I was bouncing around was to replace the plastic front with a really thick…
