Re: My PC is not booting past windows screen.
This happened to me once, it turned out that i installed an automatic mouse clicker (200 click each min) so i could play a game while i was AFK. The clicker accidentally clicked the Mootools polygon manager on my desktop and it crashed ALL HD on my machine. Everything was zapped, i wouldn't pass the booting logo, i tried… -
Re: General Maya issues
I personally like to keep the envelopes, as sometimes weird stuff happens, usually when I'm baking the AO across. Often it will bake badly and I need to delete the high poly and then reimport it and bake again. Keeping the envelope means not having to faff around with that again. But then I also export two models from… -
Re: Compositing - 3dsmax
if i have learnt anything in working with compositing then it is to render everthing and then some in passes and do the tricky bits exclusively in the comp app. not only is it a great time saver overall and helps to avoid the numerous max render bugs but you'll also never be able to experiment a lot with a dog-slow… -
Re: Zbrush unable to open ztl
Yeah, don't save project files. just tools. Make a start-up document for your canvas and dump an object into it with a basic material. Also there is a functional reason why I have quicksave set to 3 and the sliders are maxed. Project files get big fast anf zb cant handle them for long. So once again just save tools and do… -
Height to normals - dDo
In legacy dDo, you could create a height map from the detail masks created, which would automatically bump the normal. This was great for creating chips in paint etc. In the suite, dDo will create a mask of the normal of the material, but as far as I can see there is no option to create a normal map from the mask. Am I… -
Re: Win7 x64
Based on that it seems more sensible to hold off until I upgrade to 8 gigs of RAM. If I'm not going to see a noticeable performance jump reinstalling my OS is a lot of faffing around. Plus the #1 reason I wanted that extra gig was for zbrush so I could go over 5 million polies without it crashing when I try to decimate or… -
Re: Steam Visualiser
Games Owned: 47 Games Played: 33 Games Never Played: 14 Percentage Played: 70.21 % Total Hours: 1087.50 Makes me feel like I need to go back and finish a lot of these games What sad is I actually haven't beat Witcher 2 or Skyrim, I've started 3 seperate games for each one XD. Also I think a lot of the witcher 2 is the… -
Re: Disable Tablet PC input options on Windows 7?
aha, after almost 3 hours of screwing around i figured it out. apparently wacom introduced some new thing in the latest win 7 drivers to make it so the drivers don't "conflict" with the tablet pc crap in windows. problem is that these "fixes" cause photoshop and max to behave stupidly and eff up your day. so i just… -
Re: Don't fear the reaper...'s tool
ich antworte mal auf englisch, damit das hier nich untergeht ;D. I was thinking about relocating the spikes, but now with that character design I think they are not that much of a problem... his body is so small that they would hardly get in his way. But after those were so much discussed I think the best would be to… -
Re: Sketchbook: josfield
I practiced some landscape painting today. I wanted to do a few short time pieces. I worked about 30 minutes on each of them. It is getting better at least ;-) here are the references I used:…
