Re: Thinking of buying a new PC
You can reuse the drive, but you will need to reinstall windows. Depending on what sort of windows license you have currently you may need to buy a new copy. I would use your current 1TB drive as a data drive and install the OS on an SSD. If you have a windows license that came with a pre-built computer, or you used an OEM… -
Re: Normal map weirdness need help.
Mop: Unless im wrong and there is some secret setting somewhere, adjusting the cage in maya only adjusts ray distance, not direction. So its moot to say just adjust the cage here. Xnormal may fix the issue, but then you'll have to deal with setting the cage up in XN, which has a really poor UI for that sort of thing. Just… -
Re: Few questions about time management
4 productive hours is a value backed by science if you want to look into that. However, forcing a routine requires an element of self-punishment. The people who successfully studied something 8+ hours a day did not force themselves. That would cause complete mental exhaustion, the same as for any other human being.… -
Re: Jukebox Hero Prop
I'm feeling much better about this now. Adjustments made, including turning the body into wood. I have a tumultuous relationship with texturing and especially the idea of "dirt". I could probably rant for days but I won't :p . I understand that the industry needs it, so I need to be the problem solver they are looking for.… -
Re: 80 cores in 5 years, intel says

Right now I have 48 processes running on my… -

It was possible to see all parameters and… -
Re: Marmoset Toolbag 2 Alpha Problem
People say PNG was notorious for alpha issues with Photoshop, the problems should be clear now but give TGA a go, I think Earthquake mentioned something about Marmoset and PNG's not too long ago but I forget what that is haha. With TGA's I always usually leave premultiplied alpha on and since you're using an alpha, go 32… -
Re: Radial symmetry in 3DS Max?
Illusions: That's not my problem - I know how many wedges I want (regardless, it's arbitrary - if I'm doing 10 sides or 20 sides there should be a simple "radial symmetry" modifier). The problem is attaching it all together and making it meshsmooth all as one object, while still keeping the original wedge editable. Any… -
Re: Steam Piston?
Thanks Justin. I searched for an older steambox thread but decided combing through (x)pages wasn't worth it. :/ My opinion on this whole shebang: support the crap out of valve. I doubt they plan to make something that can't run the games they intend to sell on it. it may look a little suspect as we see it now but I'll give… -
