Re: Connecticut School Shooting
The AR-15 is a semi-auto version of the M16. It is not an assault rifle. "Assault rifle" is mostly just a buzzword misused by the media invented to scare the public into a gun fearing hysteria. Full auto weapons (actual assault rifles) are not allowed to be owned by citizens without a special license from the ATF and they… -
Re: Can anybody give me advice on a high end digital camera?
Avoid these "SLR Sized" point and shoot cameras like the plague. They are expensive, just as big and heavy as a dSLR, but everything about them is totally inferior, the features you get out of a $400 fake-slr are little better than a $150 compact point and shoot camera. You get a super tiny sensor, which is terrible for… -
Re: PS3 To Make PCs Obsolete
Ok, how about I agree it's capable, but also agree that sony wont impliment this stuff right away. My points are that with a little creativity it could be used as an alternative to a purchace of a new PC and still have most of the functionality. My comments on the speed issue were based off the claim that using a single… -
Re: Widescreen Vs. Multiple displays
I think if you're considering LCD monitors, you should look into what sort of panels they come with. TN panels which come with most cheap lcds offer very poor viewing angles, to some people this isnt a problem, but others really cant stand it(if you shift in your chair an inch or so the color will change, and there tends… -
Re: Melanoma
In NZ melanoma is a major problem, due to insane UV levels here. Awareness is high though; we even have UV levels in our weather forecasts here.

Re: Hi I'm looking for a height map of an real life terrain, to create a terrain out of it.
Photogrammetry with drones works quite well and it's commonly used for medium to low detail capture (up to a couple of metres per pixel). I would imagine there'd be a fair bit of trial and error involved and it could get quite expensive - not to mention time consuming - but it's a valid path to follow if you have the… -
I want a second opinion on a job I rejected.
Hi guys, I wanted to ask you what you think about the following situation I've recently been in: I got a job offer from a new studio to be their character artist, it seemed very promising and they wanted me to make a test first, which is quite common. A week overdue I finally receive the test, it was a very rough black and… -
Problem area on low-poly shoulder
Hello polycounters, I'm doing a great deal of learning and creating at the same time... and I'm very close to being happy with the torso of my low-poly game character. I partially used this tutorial image from Ben Mathis to guide me between trying to stay low poly and have somewhat decent muscle loops.… -
Next Gen 3D Painting Session @ GDC
For those that plan to attend GDC in San Francisco and have an interest in 3D painting and production pipelines, I thought I would pass this along. This session is noteworthy not only because the content could save texture artists a ton of time, but also because each attendee will have access to the project files and video…
