How odd, I rarely run into toxic people in the game. I NEVER run into people using voice chat. I play both on Steam and PS4. But, the game has like 5 million players and 100,000 concurrent usually...so of course there are gonna be some bad apples. But I've felt that a lot of people I've run into are pretty kind, at least…
Zbrush uses grey as a midpoint, so a 16bit map is definitely capable of pushing down. Both maps use a higher range of value to express "positive" values, so the expression needed is setting the shift value to -1/2 whatever the positive value is. So for instance if you set your displacement to 1, then the proper shift value…
hm...guns are meant for killing, but I bet cars would win on this. I was pretty curious, so I did some math. According to this page http://www.car-accidents.com/pages/stats.html we can say roughly 41,000-43,000 people die in the US alone to car accidents each year. According to this page on gun violence in the…
I can ask without offending those I'm asking...let's give it a try: Why do Republican voters who are worried about national security vote in an administration who makes international enemies? -- "But Ross the election was about moral values" When does the body count of dead Iraqi civilians register as morally unacceptable?…

Pavia is a metaverse and is built up of 100'000 individual plots of land which were all sold as NFTs in late 2021 and we are looking for…
This is sort of a generic science question, not app-specific. Science Nerds, prepare yourself... I'm trying to find a table of light sources by apparent brightness. I'm trying to use a standardized scale for Emissive/Glow/Self illumination Maps based on apparent brightness. So, say you're painting emissive maps for the…
pretty cool, a few suggestions, since im a game programmer myself. a) you should make the player ship spin a little when it goes left and right b) you are wasting that content with that view! you should have a special zoom through mode from afterburner view :) that would be cool. c) the enemy ship animation is a little…
Looks nice Spider :) Some of the grass/foilage mods are bullshit, just crank the number up to 100000 and it doesn't end up looking any better :) I have a pretty good setup of mods at home i think, will see if i can post the ones i like best. One of the best mods by far I installed was one that added flocks of birds, its a…
No, that's not the comparison at all. We're in a fight and I want to end it. The options are A) I punch you in the face while letting you punch me in the face nearly as hard or B) I kick you in the nuts and you don't touch me. The reality is that hundreds of thousands of Japanese were going to die after July 1945 anyway.…
Hi, I'm running a dual Xeon system and want to upgrade possibly either my ram to 4Gb minimum or buy a new dual quad core system. Will be dual booting xp pro x32, x64 - wanted Linux but unfortunately Autodesk 3ds max doesn't support that o/s and there are no emulators :( Current specs; Processors : 2x Intel Xeon EM64T…
