adam: just wondering how audible your system gets with fans on the top and side (?) of the case? also is that bunch of fans actually needed to keep the machine cool? i have a comparable i7 4ghz/770-4gb/32gb configuration with a massive CPU cooler and one silent fan each front and back, all stuffed into a noiseproofed case…
I recently bought a Dell Inspiron 17 7000 for 3d work and I've been really impressed by the performance. 17" suits me just fine :D but it is a bit bulky/haevy to carry around. Glossy screen kinda sucks (I mean the glossy finish sucks, display seems pretty solid), I have no idea why manufacturers would want to do that ...…
Workin' fine for me. Crit wise i'd say you're textures are reading a bit noisy, and your first image has a really heavy contrast that makes it difficult to read the details. I'd be careful about pure black for darks and try to simulate some bounced light to compliment that orange light source at the end of the hallway.…
Here's a bunch of animated env props I got to do for the spartan ops map Breach. I believe you get to see all these in action save the Harvester main door in the final mission. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nNREMAWSC7E [vv]77008241[/vv] [vv]77007830[/vv] [vv]77007829[/vv] [vv]76066202[/vv] [vv]75982814[/vv]…

I find planes with the ref image applied as a texture look crisper than viewport backgrounds, and Max 2015 is lacking the lock zoom/pan feature previous Max versions had so you can't even use it as a proper…
I would wait for the 900 series cards to come out, they will be relatively affordable compared to the past pricing of the higher end cards (the 980 should be $450 I think? I paid that amount for my 770 4gb almost exactly a year ago, and its nearly 25% faster). That or get a 770 4gb when the new series comes out, should be…
Ok. My final submission. Snord-9X57 - ancient cybernetic warrior.Was created to be temple guardian. Was occasionally awaken by beautiful girl during her escape from alien agressors. Snord detected her as native organic form and initiated defence protocol against aliens. Since then deep friendship began between girl and…
Thanks Ark. :D Well, we are well into our last 48 hours now... (36 hours and counting) As Ark posted we've released a small video showcasing some of the lighting tech we've been playing around with. Also, PayPal is finally up and running after a bit of teething and we've even hit 2 stretch goals already! So come and check…
Hi Giles, Your sculpt is looking pretty good, especially for your first attempt! I think you can learn allot from Digital Tutors's "Creative Development" series since they focus mostly on detailed monsters/creatures. http://www.digitaltutors.com/11/training.php?pid=823&autoplay=1…
