The Render Scene dialog is barely functional, you are definitely staring into the abyss and its staring back at you. I hate the thing with a passion and it knows it. It uses every chance it can to ruin my day. Like rendering a muti-frame job from batch render to a single frame if single is checked on in the render dialog…
I only upgraded since I had it. I did not do benchmarks with how apps performed before (something I should have done before upgrading...). But I hated Aero because it locked up sometimes and caused issues. If they are still using Aero, they made it zippier/fixed it. Just feels clean. The first 8 minutes was spent…
Eureka! Well as usual this happens to me.. I have found my creature after several failures! His name is Yggdrasil and I found the story in Norse mythology about a giant ash tree that is the centre of the earth. I'm modifying the story with my creature. He is part fauna, part flora and lives in the heart of the forest. He's…
Best: Aliens Worst: The Fantastic Four Aliens I simply consider to be the best movie of all time. You can keep your weepy real-world drama, and contrived humor. Give me prototypical gun-toting space marines and salivating xenomorphs any day. The Fantastic Four was simply a horrible, horrible mistake. It had a few decent…
i have been looking at getting new intuos and cintiq devices for some time now but i've had some bad experiences with more recent wacom drivers. on XP and with intuos 1/2/3 the drivers used to be something i would set up once and forget about entirely but on my work machine and on my home mac, both requiring new-ish…
Step one: Do a memorable fuck you moment to my boss as I quit my job. Step two: Design and build a house one a large chunk of land (I hate neighbors). Step three: Find people who need help. I dislike and distrust most charities. I'd rather see my money go directly to helping someone. Step four: Buy my Mom a home and new…
Alright so I just discovered one thing recently. Like everybody else I tend to gather reference pictures, illustrations and whatnot, accross many topics. Then I realized that even tho I had a large folder full of mech/robot stuff, I wasnt remembering any of the designs really. So I started putting together plastic model…
I have/had a difficult time drawing things that weren't right in front of me aswell. Everyones hating on tracing but thats what I did to improve my drawing, and it worked great! :) I took pics online of people (naked:P) and started in photoshop drawing the line of action over them, then then rough perspective lines, then…
Yep, don't need a prize to enter an art comp and kick some arse... But F all this prize hate, cool prizes and big $$ is awesome fun (especially for starving artists and college kids). There is certainly room for both. Edit: Oh yeah, I also got an honoreable mention in the last make something unreal contest for my FPS mod.…
i've upgraded from windows 7 to win 8 just because they removed the aero interface, i like the new clean interface and if you change the border width make it slimmer it looks even better :) i've also disabled UAC completely because i hate that and now the metro apps do not work at all, but i don't care since i can't stand…
