Highly recommended and well worth the money. Aside from not losing power, they also have better surge protection than a typical surge protector does. I lost an entire computer years ago to a surge during a winter lightning storm while I was out of town for a week. Plus the box was powered off but plugged in, not the kind…
before starting out with your model, take the time... even just 30 min. to sketch out various shapes and sizes... little thumbnails. this is part of the brain storming process that will help you think of interesting shapes. think about what kind of tree you are going to make. a pine tree? a maple tree in the winter or…
I think Seattle being called rainy is a misconception, I used to live in Arizona and it's been sunny for weeks at a time here in Seattle all winter. If you have SAD, the syndrome where lack of sunlight drains you of just about any energy, then I can see Washington being a tad much, but if you like an area with very…
@ZacD - yeah, SGDQ is usually Doctors without borders and their other marathon in Winter is usually a cancer research foundation. I've been catching it where I can since it started, I was really happy to see Ori and the Blind forest late last night. @Shrike - Here's the link to the schedule, you can see what you've missed…
About two weeks ago, mate - sorry I couldn't organize a final gloriously-decadent BBQ feast before I left. At least Lee's on the case! I'll be there in spirit, as they say. And yeah, we'll definitely meet up when you come over. Let me know if you need a place to crash! Any reason you're waiting until the frigid, icy talons…
yeah that's a problem for me - seeing that I am not as experienced with UDK and never even touched unity...I dunno how to get the whole ambient feel within UDK...since I mostly used it for next gen stuff - but I'll give it a try and see if it happens to work well - I was gonna take my winter break to learn UDK but now this…
Yeah that's cool. I've been a bmx/mtn biker/snowboarder/skater for as long as I can remember and work in a sign shop. So it's always cool when you get to do something you are interested in. I get to do a tiny bit of work for X games in Aspen every winter. (I don't get to do 3d, or make new logo's or anything) But still,…
I'm gonna assume the winners so far have the badges. Cause I logged on, killed myself and didn't receive anything. However the Scout pistol I unlocked has suddenly appeared. (It wasn't there when I found it). REMEMBER I emailed Robin and he said they were busy but that they would try to give us badges this weekend. My…
I have a question! Q: I am a modder myself, but I find myself hopelessly outclassed by all te fine modders here. Which brings me to a problem- if there are 2 fantastic models for one class of one faction, what will happen? for example, I've seen some fantastic agatha knight models pop up. Is there a chance that 2 models…
