here's some info. [i'll keep updating if i find more.] http://www.eweek.com/c/a/Security/House-Defeats-Amendment-to-Drop-DNS-Blocking-from-Stop-Online-Piracy-Act-572957/
This game is amazing. It's definitely up there as one of my all-time favorites. There's so much to do and it looks great. I love all of the tiny details, like birds casting shadows and all of the interaction with the NPCs and animals. Every time I climb a radio tower, I have to take a few minutes and admire the…
Thought I'd post some more on the feedback I've had on this- a user said "game ran at 60fps with cpu at 60% usage and the GPU at 50% usage at the highest res. QX9650 & GTX 570 that is with everything open including PS, 3DS max and UDK editor." so that's pretty promising to me and I think I can be safe in the knowledge that…
I completed my complex fanart project for the release of the movie THOR 3: Ragnarok The main goal was to recreate the character from the movie with precision. Now movies use digital doubles. I tried to recreate the character as accurate as possible but with limitations of the gaming industry. The low-poly model contains…

You may also find that if you're freelancing, your client's internal pipeline may well dictate which tools you can use. The $5775 barrier to entry for 3DS / Maya is…
I like this one. They can give a glance at other people's workflows. Every once in a while I see something that makes me go wait, what? That's a much easier way to do that. [vv]5738519[/vv]

Elections Canada is not releasing final numbers for advance voter turnout until later this week. In the last election, about 1.5 million people in the country and more…
I don't think there is anything like that in max, I haven't run into it if its there... I use Monster's KeyTools which has a "nudge left/right feature" you can assign it to a shortcut or add a button to the curve editor. It maintains tangent handles like Maya does. KeyTools:…
Yes I would definitely look at the step down before the step up. You're really getting into the range here where GPUs just aren't worth the extra money. New and faster GPUs come out like every 6 months, the turnaround on these cards is nuts, so its often better to spend like $150 now, and then another $150 in 2 years for a…
2 rules that will save you huge amounts of grief are Reset your meshes XForms before starting skinning. (you find this in the utility panel) NEVER Scale bones. Actually do you guys find sometimes reset XForms doesnt work and you have to boxtrick the mesh. If you get sick of rigging you might want to try MadCar, a premade…
