Re: Good editorial on piracy by Stardock
I agree with points made by both sides, and often I can't decide which side to take ethically. I will say though that sometimes it is so much easier or makes more sense to pirate something than to buy it. For example, when I was learning Photoshop way way back in the day I couldn't even come close to paying for a copy, and… -
Re: Arizona's new immigration law
There will be elements of that I'm sure. It's virtually impossible to regulate every action a human can do so I just prefer ways of thinking that give the people more freedom and liberty to do what they want and opt for less market interference. With everything governments try to regulate an unintended consequence almost… -
Re: Animating women...
All I can say is darn. Why didn't I think of this. It's like I want to say duh. I never put 2 and 2 together. I'll run through this and get it step by step, but I'm already thinking of ways to do it faster and with less bones. If I'd have to nit pick anything would be the addition of more bones, since I'm already putting a… -
Re: The industry Is collapsing, what are your thoughts?
If people don't have money, they don't steal cars :D . With games it's different, they are "free" in the internet, and they download the game easily and quite fast. In standard conditions, too many people would have bought the game, but that... does not happen now, because... "why pay if you can download it for free? are… -
Re: New Texture Site (www.ultimatetextures.com)
some suggestions/ ideas: - generic model (like a cube, sphere, wall,...) on which the texture is mapped onto additional next to the flat view - 512² is a joke, even if someone aims for that resolution for a tileable texture he/she propably wants it twice of the size just to be better in control,- so perhaps scrap that… -
Re: Robo something or other
Nice dude.- I dig the head a lot. The little beady eyes and the text are actually a pretty cool and I don't think I`Ive ever really seen that before. the "I can`t understand your jokes bit" is killer too. you can tell you really thought a bit about the fiction behind this. style crits: for the text, you might want to try… -
Re: Onlive: Video Game Cloud (PC/Console Obsolete?)
We did some calculations here and the input lag would be around 2 ms extra, not nearly as bad as people would think. The biggest hogger will be sound and video. It could work, but there are so many variables that need to be taken into account. I wonder how they will compress the content from server to client in order for… -
UV Unwrapping In Sub-D Workflow Questions
Hi guys, what should I do in this scenario for UV mapping? Say the model is being made for production, not games. Should I UV unwrap the high poly and texture it directly? I ask because in this case the shape of the low poly drastically differs from the high poly. And more in general I'd also like to know how UV unwrapping… -

Fbx should work fine. Could you show an example where it fails? -
Artist Marketing Tips
Marketing is becoming ever more important these days. Not just for people trying to sell things (like me) but even for artists trying to get their name out there. The word "marketing" has some negative connotations for most people but if done right it can be beneficial to both parties. There's a difference between…
