Hello everyone, apologies upfront as I lack the programming knowledge to understand the problem I am having. I have been trying to utilize Thinkbox Sequoia Meshing, the program comes with 3ds integration maxscript for loading Seq. .xmesh into 3ds. Code on GITHUB: They have provided a .ms file which I have loaded and run.…
I have done a bunch of 3d printing for functional parts: Prototype iterations: Acetone polished plug: Same 3d printed plug coated in primer then hand sanded from 320 through 2000 grit and finally polished: A final carbon fiber part: A 3d printed modular helmholtz resonator chamber. The chamber volume was tuned by swapping…
Right, so, I'm trying to capture a small video of my environment in UDK. The weird thing I noticed is the screen dumps wouldn't capture the light shaft's effects from my dd light when I start up the UDK.exe shortcut to record frame dumps in game. I'm wondering if I forgot to add something to the command line in the UDK.exe…

So i'm finally going to buy a new computer. I'm not so good on computers when it comes to the hardware so i would like some advice on what's good and necessary when it comes to brands and performance. I'm going to use it for 3d and gaming. Software's i use are 3dsmax, photoshop, mudbox, zbrush and i also plan on using udk…
Haha, will do from now on pbot. So I'm changing the way I do the rocks. The previous way would work except: insufficient computing power = not going to go my way. So I've started doing some single ones as a test. Down below you will find my rock. This was the first time I baked a normal map from a high-poly....I think it…
Hey, so I'm finally going to bite the bullet and get a ps3 to play a whopping total of 4 games I can't get on the 360 or the pc. After that who knows maybe I'll sell it on craigs list. Anyway, I was wondering does the ps3 natively support my 24" U2410 monitor? I have no idea what cables come with the ps3 so do I need to do…
Hey there. I'm building a desktop PC to use as a personal 3D/CG workstation and was hoping to get some advice from those more knowledgeable than myself. I want something that can run typical industry software like Maya, ZBrush, etc with ease. My current build is: PCPartPicker Build CPU: Intel Core i7-4790K 4.0GHz Quad-Core…
8.1 versus 7 is really not as big a deal as people make it. I would say just get whichever is cheaper. SSDs go on sale pretty frequently these days; you should be able to pick one up for relatively cheap. That's a high price for a GTX 750. You should look for a GTX 760 at less than $240 or a GTX 770 at less than $320. If…
Hit up the discount/coupon code sites. They'll do some major discounts, and in my case it just saved me over 500 bucks. I just got a new HP laptop (just delivered, like an hour ago), and with the discount code, it ran me just under a thousand for: Intel Core 2 Duo 1.83 gh 17" 1680x1050 3 GB DDR2 Geforce 8600M GS 512 MB…
