Re: 3ds Max Error
You could use a bit more ram, Win7 is a bit of a ram hog. But you might be running out of hardrive space. Max uses an old technique that treats sections of the hardrive kind of like ram. Which is one reason why max runs a lot faster on SSD drives, the read/write speed on old platter drives really bottle necks things. I… -
Re: GDC Questions
@ironbelly Definitely agree with you on the full pass. At this point, i'm more than likely going with just the expo pass. The next step up was the education summit pass, which has some additional access. I'll for sure be bringing an iPad with my work on it. It just feels so much easier (and elegant) to turn it on and have… -
Re: Unpopular opinions -- get it out of your chest
- large part of character concepts in Artstation Ancient Civilization Challenge have very little in common with the term "Ancient Civilization", Greek, Hellenistic, Roman are almost entirely omitted -heavily decorated characters like Rococo furniture are boring -teeth and fingernails are the most challenging parts of human… -
Re: Learning trim sheets. Some questions...
As far as I can work out, what they did was not look too closely at the seams and chop geometry up to minimise stretching. Also, the world space noise maps they used for colour variation etc. Will have masked a lot of distortion/sins. Personally I don't think the system as described holds up to scrutiny these days -… -
Re: Rant about priorities
Pretty good reads here by all of you. Poop, Generally whatever we do for a living we assume a certain stance of being, well uh, a whore so to speak. I recall a story about Norm Rockwell and how he never took a day off, even Holidays he always painted. No kind of family life and his son barely knew him. Kinda sad. Bobo you… -
Re: really cool explanation about piracy
Doesn't Xbox Live and PSN offer downloadable games though? Given the fact that Onlive requires a beefy internet connection anyway, the choice between streaming a game and possibly having compression or lag issues, or waiting 15 minutes for all of my stuff to be rendered onsite, I'd definitely pay and wait a short while.… -
Re: Dand's scrapbook
I've been adding details on his suit, his pants are still off and he's missing proper footwear, working on picking one of the several pairs of boots available for the mercury suit project. Suit and meshes are missing any uvs and they have no alpha textures sans the bust. Going forward with the splitting of the suit, where… -

Re: i need a new computer
I'd go for i7 920, it has an auto overclock and is 8 threaded. Something like a GeForce GTX 275 I wouldn't go too overboard on a graphics card because DX11 card are expensive and I'd wait until they are cheaper, and its kinda silly to get a really high end DX10.1 card Most cases would work, find something decent size with… -
Re: Can anyone recommend a good environment concept artist
http://www.pringleart.com/ I worked with the guy at DigitalExtremes, he made a ton of stuff for Dark sector, quite an awesome dude, very cool concepts to work from. about the watchmen game : fanboys shouldn' t be listened at, I was honestly surprised by such good graphics for an xbox live game (not that all XLA/PSN games…
