ya I dont know why, but I had a hell of a time with the grip... really not pleased with that part. It's based off a colt python .357, and I just added stuff onto it. In my reference, the indents are in between each recess, so I think mine is accurate. It was modeled and rendered in Softimage.
@EarthQuake Here's the peak (100% load) power draw of a GTX 1080 and a 6700k. If they're both being 100% utilized the total power draw between the two is 317 watts. I can't imagine that the Mobo / SSD / HDD would be more than another 100. Maybe there's something I'm missing?
Thanks a lot for that reply! :) I knew that Distance Fields were peformance heavy, I just didn't know to what extent really. So you're helping me a lot with that information! The final instruction count is 287, would that be acceptable in a AAA game or can it only be used in pretty portfolio scenes? :D
I'm a huge fan of hand painted texture work, but have never really tried doing something from start to finished with only painted texture. So today I decided I would give it a shot. I think this turned out pretty good. It's sitting a 382 tris with a 256 x 256 texture sheet. Concept by Nate Rogers.
I half disagree and half agree with Cap Hotkill, they were polished, but with wear the wood would receive pits in it's natural grain after a while. But 1 thing I would maybe say is that the pitting in the wood is a bit too large. Pitting is present in the following image, but not to such an extreme. (The 357 Magnum logo is…
In 3dsmax.ini find for example the [MtlEditorPosition], you should change all lines below this one which contains 4 numbers (e.g MainWindow=827 11 367 808, 827 and 11 are X and Y) Here is a macro which do that: ( max_ini_file = getMAXIniFile() setinisetting max_ini_file "RenderDialogPosition" "Dimension" "200 200 355 792" )
The beta looked beautiful **** 343i for downgrading the graphics. I'd give the beta graphics a 8/10 look at these ground details! http://static1.gamespot.com/uploads/original/378/3789400/2725593-4005920392-h5-be.jpg The final graphics deserve a 2/10 for having worse textures than Halo 3 http://i.imgur.com/lyvD3e9.jpg
Wowow how is that possible that I haven't seen hat gorgeous Tide before! Such a great set it will be. My favorite color is this from post #367 Only problem in my opinion is dead pirate. I don't know if valve will go for it. Two reasons, one is that he is dead, second is his skull. Both related to China :D
Ha, I wanted to ask the same question (you beat me to it). A co-worker (programmer)and myseld are thinking about attending Siggraph. It is a big undertaking though, since we both live in the Netherland. What I am wondering: Should we buy the select conference pass ($380) or the full conference pass ($1145)?
