(I'm going to pretend you are using 3ds Max.) Use Reactor and set up a scene with your flattened / tessellated / UVd flag mesh. You can bind the edges you want to attach to the pole and set them not to move, and the rest of the object will just fall based on your world gravity and the weight you assign to the flag. I'm not…
It's all about refinement and polish. This site still needs some. I'm not as down on flash as some of the other members here. (what's with all the Flash-hate?) But I do agree that Flash probably isn't the best choice for an on-line art portfolio. Traditional web coding will serve you better for this purpose. Even though I…
i had linux running on my desktop for half a year its definitely a fun new experience. but: stability on windows xp is WAY better than linux ... at least the distros that i had gnome and kubuntu. maya comes with a linux version on cd in the box but the user interface is really broken and it eats your mouse cursor O_O wine…
Thanks guys. The animators here at Ensmble have been using these tools for a couple of monthes. The ones I use the most happen to be SnapScale, Nudge, and Loop. Rob G., Thanks for the insight. This is the first time I've released a tool set. Normally I just create batch tools and export interface tools, and those types of…
I'm pretty sure that 720p is a newer standard than 1080i. The latter does have a higher resolution, but the signal is interlaced (meaning only half of the horizontal lines of resolution are displayed at a time, oscillating between even and odd lines of resolution several times a second to create the appearance of 1080…

I assume your computer has an onboard sound card? I find those pick up electrical interference far too easily, and so there's a constant background hum or buzz just from various devices operating and generating electrical signals. I've only ever noticed this problem on computers with onboard sound cards... maybe there's…
Progress Post Five: Interactive dialogue! Hey everyone! It's been a long time since I've last posted an update. Truth is I decided to take a break from the narrative piece as I found myself pruning over it a lot. I figured I'd have a fresh mind if I came back to Chains of Fate at a later time. I've worked out a few changes…
I can't say to much about the content but letter is a bit wordy. For example the first "I am writing to express my interest in..." could easily be "I am interested in". Another example of cutting things shorter. This: "A commitment to utilizing the interactive medium to bring life to amazing worlds is an ideal that I have…
Thanks a lot for the comment and the sub! Nah I plan to keep it free, maybe an unobtrusive ad or two on the website if it manages to gain some traffic from the videos. Great point, I'll maybe invest in a 1440p monitor if the channel takes off to make sure everyone can clearly see the interface, that's actually something I…
