Re: Building a Work/Game PC: Humbly requesting a second set of eyes, please
Only if you are lucky and get a decent cpu. Since ivy bridge intel uses thermal paste instead of soldering tin between the cpu die and the heatspreder, which means the cpu get's hotter. If you buy a desktop haswell (sometimes called hasfail by some users because it get's even hotter than ivy bridge) you can get lucky an… -
Re: Zbrush Decimator vs 3ds Optimize / Pro-Optimize
Decimation Master in Zbrush does a really good job of retaining detail while crunching polys, other poly crunch tools seem to just go based off of distance, if verts are XXX close to each other, weld. I will always run this if I'm going to go bake in another program like xNormal or Max, it gives the same detail but at a… -
Re: Getting paid!
If you know how much time you will spend per asset, then calculating per asset + changes is fine, it's not unelikely that i do the first model for a new job on my own and let the client decide whether or not he likes it and is willing to pay me. I worked on it, and if its good enough its worth getting paid for, if he… -
Re: next gen woes?
Personally I find, aside from the jump in power which while reasonable is quite a small step to be honest. The pipelines themselves really haven't changed much. Higher vertex counts, more complex Shaders. The pipeline itself hasn't really changed, atleast it hasn't as far as the X-Box or GameCube were conserned. The… -
Re: The Future of the Dota 2 Workshop

It will get a huge amount of favorites and upvotes, but if it never gets votes fast enough it will stay down, so then you get situations where you… -
Re: MP5
In the vain of comparing this to Lonewolf's MP5 design, I have to agree with lotuseater; the two weapons are designed very, very similarly. It's totally fine to draw inspiration from professional artists, which he is (I have a weapons folder FILLED with inspirations from Lonewolf and Millenia) but one of the crappiest… -
Re: Knald - Master Thread
malcolm, can you try http://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/78216/en-us (works for me on 970, would be interesting if the driver fixes issue for pre 9xx series, too) edit: actually that driver only works with 9xx, sorry. -
Re: Does Maya 2018 work with GoZ?
This actually works but you have to do a few things first. 1) Instructions: Go to path "C:\XXX\Public\Pixologic\GoZApps\Maya" Locate GoZBrushToMaya.mel, copy and rename the copy GoZBrushToMaya.mel.bak Open GoZBrushToMaya.mel, replace this section: // GoZBrushToMaya requires Mental Ray plugin. if (`pluginInfo -query -loaded… -
Re: AI Art, Good or Bad? A (hopefully) nuanced take on the subject.
These are obviously AI-generated renders, probably prompted as "digital sculpt, realistic, trending on Artstation, in the style of xxxx". And since the AI model is using copyrighted images, this is basically infringing on thousands ... You claim again that there is a copyright breach. But where is it? To create images in… -
