Re: Laptops for Modeling
Interesting! I have an old 2008 pro which I had done a lot of photoshop/video work with in the past, so old it wont even run marmoset 2 now sadly haha. Had no complaints otherwise, maybe its worth looking into again! Only lame thing would be learning a new sub-d package, though I don't doubt Maya's abilities and it would… -
Re: Yes, another 'NEW PC' thread... with a technical question.
Ok got it sorted! Turns out it was a faulty drive. I got the old one sent back for return and picked up a new one from a component store this morning and it booted fine straight away. Just installed all my software and it's lightning quick. I was obviously expecting a pretty noticeable upgrade since my old hardware is so… -
Re: why no happy new year or christmas thread.?
I remember coming here on new year's eve and during holidays; I was quite surprised tosee that wasn't even a thread about goals or aspirations for 2017... Well Happy New Year peeps!

Re: Survivor Character (Inspired by The Last of Us)
Thanks for your feedback guys. @oxblood Just started textureing the rifle so its just a wood overlay and base colors for now :) Here's some progress on the head I'm finding it difficult to add too much definitions to his face with making him look very old. Kinda wanna keep him looking 25-30 years old. I also tried… -
Re: Need help identifying texturemaps for Berserk Warriors
Wait so in your original post, the second map is altered? First I also thought its for alpha test but it has those gray colors while for alpha test , you want a black and white texture. Unless you want to animate the cutout - threshold. About converting the old spec map to a new: There is a great tutorial about converting… -
Re: Another PC Advice Topic
cheers guys yeah its 16GB sorry for the confusion. At the moment I am running a three year old i3 1.3GHz but suppose to be overclocked to 4.2 or something insane and 4GB RAM. Current mother board is too old to support much of a ram upgrade or any of the new CPU's. If I can buy the parts themselves and build it myself for… -
Re: Final Fantasy VIII - Balamb Garden
Thanks. After spending days on a giant technical fiasco, I finally have a creative post for critique! :) I redid the bench and trashcan and I'm debating on them. The bench looks fine to me from a distance, while not really helping in terms of color and theme (its not very sci fi) nor is it stellar up close. The new trash… -
Re: Sketchbook: Craig Dixon
I decided to take a break from painting bricks to learn CSS and redesign my portfolio website. I feel like it turned out so much better than I could have hoped for. Only problem I had was the cool CSS transitions I have on the portfolio thumbnails don't work in Firefox for some reason. :\ http://www.craig3dixon.com/ Here… -
Re: Texturing, how can i get better?
So after trying to bevel the edges yesterday my model is completely gone haywire and i'm having to fix issues before i can get back to texturing properly. Noticeably my lights have gone extremely weird on the surface of the front of the cartridge. Here are two photos to compare (one with orange emissive is old and the one… -
Re: TGA Physically Based Lighting CGFX Shader for Maya Viewport
Hey guys, Regarding shaders, I do not think this is possible in the old CGFX plugin of Maya unless you change its code and re-compile the plugin. However, Maya itself, in viewport 2.0, is definitely capable of doing shadows in cgfx (as well as DX11 as you mentioned). For DX11 we just happen to build the functionality into…
