40-hour work week
Motionographer just posted an article about finding work/life balance and the importance of limited (but highly efficient) work hours. The article is based on a blog post from a Microsoft engineer/project manager who used to pride himself on 100-hour weeks before realizing such efforts were unsustainable and unproductive.… -

Re: Sci-fi Rifle Project
Thank you for the help guys, though a bit late. I solved most of my problems by switching baking program to Maya. (I was using Xnormals) I had heard that maya and xnormals used diffrent techniques whith cages, I think that is what resulted in those double edges. I don't have any screens to show right now though.

I turn on clipping and use a 1 bit alpha and it starts sorting ok enough to see what you're doing while placing cards and such. I'm told Xoliul does not work with 2014 though.
