Hey thanks for the overclocking links guys, I'm sure they will come in most handy! I put together what I would consider to be a great bang for your buck system (sans the monitor and input devices). Certain decisions were made based on the savings offered, which could very well change by the time I actually purchase and…
With each university course thats created, the question is: will it make me a better artist? I studied geography and french for my first one, then did an Msc a couple of years later, thinking "this will help me get my dream job". Of course I was naive in thinking a piece of paper would get me a job off the cuff. Doing the…
Does the Google phone have a fixed hardware specification? What is the userbase? Are there any systems in place to prevent piracy? Do all google phones and Blackberries have touch screens, or is there a broader variety in control types? Choice itself comes at a price. The apple app store is appealing to smaller developers…
omg so you can move those damn buttons! Now a problem has arised! I moved the "Reference coordinate system" pull down into my own toolbar and then it stopped working (the pulldown goes blank). So I dragged it back to the main toolbar and its still blank... This happens to all the pulldowns in the main toolbar, once you…
[ QUOTE ] My point was that it's a problem unique to his setup. It's not the reviewee making his stuff difficult to view, it's the reviewer having a funky system [/ QUOTE ] Its not a system but a codec thing, and the situation is like if it reboots with some i could fix it but then it wont show some other file and it only…
As gannonroader said something is overheating, but I have a feeling it's power that is missing. If the PC overheats it usually shuts down completely. You mentioned that it reboots but also mentioned that it shuts down. Does it do both? or a reboot? If it reboots, then it sounds to me that you don't have enough power from…
"I had assumed that XRefs were instances and that changing the object would change the instance in the scene" yes "and that changing the one in the scene would change the one it its own file." no. It's a one way ticket and anything you do to the xref itself, including grouping, linking, modifiers, trying to get at the…
bounch: it's like the difference between R and NC-17 in the movie system--there are plenty of horribly violent or sexual movies that probably would have made NC-17 easily, if some sort of public sentiment or ratings board turned against it. it's not really about the content, it's about whether or not they want it out…
Yeah - it does seem kinda expensive, but think about it this way: Right now, if you want to create real-time shaders in Max, you need to learn to program in HLSL. How long would that take? 6 months? A year? Let's say you were really dedicated and you had 8 hours per day and it only took you two months to learn HLSL. If you…
ancient system? athlon's/pentiums 1,6 - 3 ghz. my own ps5.5, which offers no smoothing, is much more responsive, even on far slower systems below the 800mhz mark. it was so bad that i sold off my then brand new photoshop cs and it seems cs2 has only made it worse. the question should maybe be if you only tested performance…
