Re: metaballs
This here plugin is sadly only for 4.0 - 8.5. http://www.highend3d.com/maya/downloads/plugins/modeling/misc/a-Metaballs-modeling--Maya-4---8-5--2776.html If you really just need 2 Spheres seemingly merge into each other, you could also try to "fake" it with NURBS Spheres and use the Circular Fillet Tool on them. Problem… -
Re: March Desktops!
Going off topic here. Racer 445, how did you get your Windows 7 taskbar to look like that? I tried doing it through just personalizing Windows 7 but I can't seem to get it to look like that. Do you mind sharing the Windows 7 theme? I really like that theme. Thanks. By the way I like your wallpaper. Simple and clear,… -
Re: Alice In Wonderland
Hey bud, I gave the atmospheric and character developing experience known as 'The Hurt Locker' an 8.5 and your score is not far off from that. I rate every movie based on a number of things, for example, character development, atmosphere, message, visual effects and, of course, storyline and The Hurt Locker definitley had… -
Re: Just graduated, about to buy software, have questions
That's been my experience with Maya 8.5 and 2009 on OSX, but you seemed pretty confident about going with Maya so I figured Autodesk had fixed those problems. I've given up after 4 years of trying to set up an OSX-only pipeline. High-end game art just isn't practical in OSX because the software support's so shoddy, with… -
Re: baking dense vine geometry into lo-poly mesh
hmm... I guess I didnt think to use a normal map because the vine geometry is so much more complex and random than the flat faceted lo-poly geometry I was aiming for... but Its worth a try with alpha also applied... which operation (in maya 8.5)would I use to get the color, lighting, and alpha information aside from the… -
Re: Metal Gear Solid 4 !
got the scorpion award for just killing when needed and hardly ever get an alarm or die. That's strange, because I really killed 180 people and most of the time didn't bother sneaking. I hate the endfight, but the end sequence is cool. DON'T stop when the credits begin!! DON'T! overall I would give it a 8.5 of 10. The main… -

Re: Autodesks 2012
I had long written off mudbox as dead. But I'm digging the new features. I have a 1.0 lic that I'm not using and its $345 to upgrade... kind of steep but not out of my range. I will need to try it out before I go dropping any kind of coin on sculpting software but if they can deliver ease of use and the features work as… -

Re: Best 4k Laptop for game design and Photography?
I came across this laptop and may consider getting it instead: https://www.aorus.com/product-detail.php?p=545&t=35&t2=69&t3=70 I think if I'm going to get a laptop I might as well spend an extra $1000 for something that is definitely going to power through everything I throw at it, and it is upgradable. It would suck to…
