Re: Joao Sapiro thread of ramblings
I would say someone who you have to constantly walk around in egg-shells/is very hard to work with in general, stuff like extreme arrogance/lack of empathy and value of the time of others. Thats what comes to mind hehe -
Re: MODO Top Ten Scripts
I use MODO for modeling and UVing prop assets for game engine use. Scripts 1-5 improve general usability/UI. 6-7 are a part of my modeling workflow. 8-10 are a part of my UVing workflow. * Eterea Snapping Bar – Cristobal Vila http://community.thefoundry.co.uk/discussion/topic.aspx?f=119&t=80869 I dock this at the bottom of… -

Re: Rectangular Texture Maya
If you mean project a normal map or ao to a rectuangular texture, There are 2 ways- 1.you still want to have you UVs take up the entire 0-1 in UV space.

Re: Sawed-Off Shotgun

Re: How to decimate very big photoscanned mesh (over 370 million faces)?

Click on an empty slot in the material editor, and use the eye dropper to sample the material. If its a shell material drag out the original material or setup… -
Wacom drawing area starting to wear out. Replacement advice.
So I use my intuos for everything. It's been a few years now and the drawing area is starting to wear out a bit. I saw that Wacom sells covers that you can buy, but they're like $40 which seemed pretty expensive. I was wondering if I could just get a screen cover for a surface pro tablet or something and cut it down to…
