Re: Minneapolis Bridge Collapse...
Thats a tragedy..it definitely makes me wonder about some of the raised roadways around here that are under constant scrutiny by both the government and the media. I hope this never happens to the viaduct or 520 bridge, because I'm sure the resulting casualties would be even higher. -

Re: Polycount TF2 Server
Dan: are you sure? If you turn it down, it should run on some pretty modest hardware. On my laptop I need to make sure nothing's using the hdd in the background, because tf2 will chug like a slideshow. Then again, that's a 5200rpm harddrive. Anyway, I had lots of fun playing with you guys, do it again next week? Thanks to… -
Re: TRON: Legacy

Re: Aldo - Work Thread
The dreads look ok from a distance but close up, I think the strands in the texture look too large. I've got a friend with dreads and up close it almost looks like a fine wire brush lol. Here's a picture I found to show what I mean:… -
Re: How do you model? - Time lapse references
That's a bummer, might want to give MoPs Normalize script a try it started out compatible with 8+. http://boards.polycount.net/showthread.php?t=52415 I agree, align to face would be handy. In 9 or maybe 2008 they added a "quick planar map" button that does roughly that. Super effective. Before that I think it was a script,… -
Re: Sketchbook: Tiros
Been a while since I put anything on here now. Recently picked up an env again due to too much spare time -.o Also tried out mudbox and damn it's a nice app. Finally made (more or less) my first ever properly sculpted model too. Which made me so proud I had to snap a few shots of it :p It's slightly on the high in the… -
Re: Bioshock Demo for download
I suspect that you're just doing your 'just got back from the boozer and being obnoxious for the sake of it' thing Ruz If not, I'm genuinely surprised that you might feel that way. You're a talented artist, and its through an artists eyes that Bioshock can really be fully appreciated. A couple of folks at work compared it… -
Re: So I got my new pc and I hate it.
I've got the Corsair HX550 (or 520? something around the 500 Watt mark) and it's totally silent, even when gaming. My old ATI graphics card fan used to do a similar thing, though. -
Re: the dragon
Good post TGZ, and aresee, listen to MoP. Your 'low-poly' mesh has clearly too many polygons. It really shouldn't look that different from current low polygon characters. Here's an example of how a low poly mesh with a normal map looks, scroll down to see the wireframe and materials at work.…
