Hey guys! I bought the system. However, I had to make some last minute changes. The 6870 cards are no longer in stock so I bought an XFX 6850 instead. I also bought a more expensive mobo which supports 1600mhz ram without overclock. I got the appropriate ram too :) Also, I decided to try my old FSP Bluestorm 500w PSU,…
I never implied game usage. You can use textures for still images, product renderings, archviz, movies etc. It was exagerrated but it clearly depends on what you are planning to do. Also my examples were not the point. Generalizing things like "Nobody needs 4k textures" and "We may need 4k textures in 4 years with VR" is…
sigh. Both steam and non steam don't work for me, and this is a separate pc than the one I was using before. I don't get what I'm doing wrong. I copied the Airborn folder and shortcut to my C:\Program Files (x86)\Unreal Tournament 3 root folder, then edited the shortcut to read: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Unreal Tournament…
I took a quick look and here are some notes from a first impression: 1) Your website is too wide for a 1280 x 1024 resolution monitor 2) In your resume, personally, I'd get rid of the "Dragon Slayer" part, it's not professional IMO, but maybe you're resume will land in the hands of someone who wlll get a laugh from it 3) I…
thanks, I'll take a look at increasing the size of the renders. I think the originals are all 1280, so should be easy fix :D . there is a lot of stuff on my web site; too much I think =/, and I am going to be going in there and being more selective with what I show. At the time I created the portfolio, I was a hobbyist…

It's a functional suit of armour. I have 5 years of IRL armoursmithing skills under my belt, and was going to make this, when I ran out of time and money. I was in the middle of working on the texture, when I realized this would be an absolute nightmare to animate... What do you guys think? Would this be possible to…
Wow two days in a row of posting :) need to keep this shit going ( not gonna happen XD ) Well decided to do another head after yesterdays DISASTER. So ya here you go: Hand painted cartoon'sh per portioned Orc. Tris = 50 Pixels = 128*128
Tight know I'm making it uber large so later on I can scale it down later on, The bigger texture will be used for the High poly and the smaller (probably 128 x 128 ) for the game itself. The high poly would be for a cinematic kind of thing so the poly budget is fairly big for a can.
That's... not a normal map. It's just 128, 128, 255 blue with the displacement subtracted from the red/green channels? If you want to make a normal map from a heightmap, go use something like nVidia's normal map filter, but it won't be as good a normal map as say high poly modelling the dartboard and baking it.
