Reviving this thread zombie to recommend a little gem i read through recently, "101 Things I learned in Architecture School" by a certain Mattew Fredericks ([ame="https://www.amazon.com/101-Things-Learned-Architecture-School/dp/0262062666"]Amazon.com: 101 Things I Learned in Architecture School (9780262062664): Matthew…
Random thoughts and comments after all that: The stuff they do with the z-offset and modified perspective is both simple (well, for a programmer) and crazy. You can effectively use as many layers as you want as long as you're careful with z-buffer depth. I thought they'd be rendering to offscreen surfaces but this is way…
pic's might be more enticing then a link to a rar file. I like it a lot, the legs/boots are great! Crits: - Providing the model in .obj format will let more people play with it in different 3D apps. - Unwrap the model and providing sample templates will get people rolling quicker. - Reset your material editor and only show…

Snape says something like 'take it' so harry puts the 'thought' in a little container. Snape…
I'm happy to announce that EmAr will be joining with me to turn this into a small singleplayer mod. :) A multiplayer version may also be an option down the road, but we're already sitting on 400+mb of custom assets, so that may be a stretch. We're still planning, but a few features that we are thinking about include: *…
We all get stolen from Blaizer, while it's terrible and all that, it's even worse to live in fear of it like you seem to do. That's a rather sad attitude. Let them plagiarize, what are you afraid of, copies will always be cheap copies and never as good as the original and god knows potential retards have hundreds of other…

Thanks Ancient. I know what you mean about the crotch. The intent was to give him that chicken butt kinda look where his pants sag due to his thin physique/the pant cut/and pose. But I might not have pulled it off successfully. I'd like to revisit some of these suggestions concerning the details, so I'll definitely be…
Hey all, I am starting yet another character from the Eternal Champions series, and this one will definitely raise some eyebrows when I am got through with it. This character is named Midknight, a vampyre who was once a biochemist in 1967, when a freak accident turned him into what he is. So far I have only focused on…
