Re: Age Old Question
I've found that memory is the first limit I hit with any graphics card which is why I'd have preferred a 256MB card... It won't increase your FPS until you hit the memory limit (going over the memory limit will usually result in framerates of 1-2 fps, not a gradual getting slower but a sudden jump from e.g. 60fps to 1).… -
Re: WIP: Demon. Please spare a minute. [Mild Nudity]
It looks great to me. I don't think you need all those poly's around the tip of the tail and the lower legs tho. I see a lot of stuff on these boards looking just a good with much less polys in those areas. And unless the source engine is different from most other engines I've read up on, the model will have to be… -
Re: Creative Zen Touch
I've got a 60gb Creative Zen Xtra. If the Zen Touch is anything like mine, then I'd say go for it! I love my MP3 player, it's reliable and has awesome sound quality! -
Re: Working and finding time to do your own work?
Hmmm, I work many hours per week on my modelling/texturing job. I have plenty of ideas swimming around in my head for what I would like to create for myself...just isn't enough time.

Re: ubisoft.... EXPANDS

Re: PC Cookbook
not sure how polycount feels about seafood, but here's one of my all-time favorites. it's based on a recipe by Johannes King who originally made it with snails (yuck) as a sauce for a grey mullet. since i don't like snails and don't always have grey mullet or any other fresh fish filet around i use it as a spaghetti sauce.… -
Re: getting ready for hl2
what's the poly count on this vehicle? cause the dune buggy and water craft in hl2 are both ~6000 tris (5944 for the watercraft and 5824 for the buggy). You should definitely be able to spend the polys on actual rims, as well as cutting in for the headlights and putting transparent polys over them. Also, consider some… -
Re: ILM workers protest proposed pay cut
Look at it this way, you're a game developer (or FX company) and you've got $120k/yr to hire new artists. You can hire two experienced artists for $60k/yr each, or one at $60k/yr and two college grads at $30k/yr, and you get the guy (or girl) with experience to watch over the other two. From a purely numbers point of veiw… -
