Re: Keystone 8mm K:26 Camera
it will often increase the tricount, yeah. it's a trade-off for an easier bake and less UV space expended on out-of sight areas, and often fewer UV islands whatsoever. and it's also worth remembering that the vert count is what ultimately matters, not the tricount - in some cases a few supporting edgeloops are doing the… -
Re: BF1942 TONIGHT! Polycount server!! (Saturday)
Hmm never heard of Skype.. the only reason I even have X-fire is a few other people I know mentioned it, and it seems like a decent program to use especially since many of the games are supporting X-fire (and visa versa) and the "click to join" option when you see a friend online playing on a server. As for voice programs,… -
Re: Grand Theft Auto 4 - trailer
I really can't see Philip Glass giving the permission for that sample if he knew what it was going to be used for. No, I'm sure it was obtained legally, I'm saying I think because of the shitty way music contracts are, he very well could have been left out of the loop. Or to the extent was simply told it was for a video… -
Re: Krome australia layoffs.
That's interesting. I know a few people who've worked there, and I was under the impression that they mostly did level design, QA and engine programming. Now that I'm living in Canberra, I might have to pop in my resume. :P and yeah Jackablade, Micro Forte do still exist. I don't know to what extent though. lol btw muzz,… -
Re: crazy max!
Weird! So I seem to have found out how to fix it, thanks to Rhinokey. During this problem, if you close the window out and click on the modifier in the stack, it'll bring up the edit window again. Doing this, you still have that weird menu problem. BUT if you close it and hit the Edit button before clicking anywhere else… -
Re: super quick zbrush ?...poop!?!?!?!?!?
We've used Zmapper and Max's normal map rendering workflows extensively here. Unless someone here has found some magic settings for Zmapper here, the seams it creates are unavoidable. Everywhere your UV's aren't welded, Zmapper creates a seam in your normal map. Period. Max8 does not have this problem. I get perfectly… -
Re: Can Twitter benefit us as artists?
I love twitter. It is what you make of it, as glynnsmith said. I use it for a lot, from communicating with friends to getting news. It can benefit you as an artist or as a person or whatever. The instant nature of it is awesome. As soon as someone tweets, you can see it right away. You've got nothing to lose by creating an… -
Re: Wanna get your UT04 on?
Is that AOL or MSN? Mine is same for both (+the hotmail extension on MSN). I cant give my hours since they are all over. Best bet would be to IM me. I dont like to idle my character in UT, as for one, I usually have max open and can run out of texture memory. Im not going to twiddle my thumbs in the polycount server (which… -
Re: Multi OBJ Tools for Maya!
Well I have an idea about 10 minuets ago that solved my problem. Using your plugin I exported the RealFlow sequence out to objs (300 files), imported that obj sequence into Houdini then exported the sequence as a FBX file and finally imported the FBX file into Maya, producing a RealFlow workaround. lol I'm still interested… -
Re: Naming my soon to be son
[ QUOTE ] wow. You guys are a bunch of prudes. Have some fun with it. I'd love to have a name like Labtec or Avenging Lakewood Spiderglass. Kids get made fun of regardless of their name. [/ QUOTE ] With such a name for sure! I have seen my fare share of this crap that goes on between kids, and it really ain't pretty…
