Talked to a local place today, I can get a 500 watt psu for $30 bucks, a gts 450 (their reccomendation, they claim it will be about a 150% boost in performance) for $135 and will install it for $10 sound good?
The difference is that in one case, the concave and convex parts are encoded in 2 different color channels, while the greyscale one encode concave parts in the 0-127 range and the convex parts in the 128-255 range.
Hey man, sorry, but I did receive the 2.5 update. I have a second email for PayPal that I rarely check and I just found it today. I got it on 28th Nov. Thanks.
yeah looks like a solid build ruz, gonna be sweet. personally id ditch the monitor and get a better gfxcard, gf 260 or 275, should be around same price if u remove the screen.
Refined the head a lot more. It's slowly getting there! 2.5 weeks til the deadline, I'm going to be re-topping this model soon and then getting around to texturing it. Don't be shy guys, comment away! :poly136:
Its Sinusitis. Ive had it for 2.5 weeks. Get lots of fluids, and stay away from caffeine, chocolate, cigs, wheat products, cheese, etc... Rest as much as possible and sleep sitting up.
In anticipation to the Nintendo DS WH40K Squad Commander coming out in November and the fact that I'm a Relic fan, and the fact that I think CoH is the prefect platform for a Gear Krieg table top by Dream Pod 9, I made this PzKpf IV Loki for kicks. 245 faces for the mech and shoulder accessories; 2x64 textures for the…
Hey everyone, I recently finished this prop and wanted to share it with the community. Feedback would be very appreciated. ~23k tris, 1 x 2k texture set for everything. This is my first time posting on this site. I have many more pictures, but I'm not sure how many I'm allowed/supposed to post here.
Thanks Marie! I do this to approximate the intended volume and check for intersections. These are simply curves with a round profile assigned, to be replaced with different types of profiles down the line. Just a quick (successful) geometry optimization test to see if it can realistically fit within my poly limit. Still…
The 5 rays 20 max steps is around 2,5 ms on 1080p. It could be optimized a little bit by using a lookup texture for the random directions, instead of using cell noise. But the global distance field samples are much more expensive than the cell noise itself... Not good, not horrible.
