Well I think I understand it better than I did before, thanks piippo. On a side note, MSI makes wicked products, amazing quality! Someone had purchsed a video card from them, I think the dual fan one, I think it's called the Hawk? Anyways.. they told me to install it and I kind of tinkered about with it and opened it up.…
slum- exactly my thoughts. i was a big big et fan , hardcored more than 1 year prob. i didnt like it first too , game mechanics are way too different than ET and i generally hate multiplayer games with vehicles ( battlefield etc). but after first 15 min , i get my lovely sniper rifle with 15- fps & 150+ ping........ man…
@ Lee3dee - thanks, Colonial Marines looks sweet! You guys make me want to work that much harder! You should let me know if any junior level art positions open up @ Soul - Wouldn't bringing the fingers down to 3 sided jack the mapping for the normal pretty badly? It might not be too bad if I re-render it... @ Shepeiro -…
This was one of the most ambitious pieces I've worked on as a 3D artist, and I had an awesome time working on it. My favorite part about this project was doing the trim sheets and tiling textures, and it was so much fun to watch it all come together into a finished piece that I probably never thought I could make a couple…
JoltZero - Thanks very much for the vote of confidence, I just hope I do the idea justice :D Supposable Lion - thanks very much :D ILLMATICC - thanks very much also...which bit of Auckland are you from? I lived in Henderson and Sunnynook on the north shore, and I worked in the viaduct, still probably my favourite city on…

Other weird one was my controllers wouldn't connect unless plugged in, yet was fine on the dashboard....weird!!! Also a few points where you can…
Hi everyone. I'm in need of some suggestions, I kind of finished my decals, vertex painted everything and done my first lighting pass for my night time scene. What do you guys think, what should I tweak (if any) or should I highlight anything else? I also added some "narrative" with the book left behind, and tried to…
LOD0 wasn't really a problem, but LOD1 was a pain, specially since it's almost half of LOD0. I had to use quite a lot of triangles on some areas of the finger which are quite detailed, and since they're not one 'piece' they wouldn't work really well on a more flat surface, the hair is so voluminous it also eat quite a few…
Heh, today I saw a yell for a medic in the chat from myself. I figured I had just slipped at hit 'e' by accident. Then it popped up again and I realized that bastard spy was trying to steal a heal, so I yelled into my mic that it wasn't me and the medic blasted him instead I found Adam's server, I ping really well there.…
Hi! I'm new here. I've been practicing topology for a while now and can confidently say they I have gotten really good at it. I spent a lot of unnecessary time on human topology for a game I have planned with muscle deformation and modularity in mind, so thought I might as well create a product that would help me towards…
