Re: Am I stupid? (Serious qeustion) School stuff
I went to the art institute of Pittsburgh 4 years Game Art and design I pay close to 500 a month and only make 32 k a year Pros: My biggest pro is the friends I met and the contacts I made as a result of attending.

Re: To Quadro or not?!
have a quadro 4800 or sommit at work and i am distictly not impressed, yes it can push a few polys.....but shaders, im not convinced that its any better than a gaming card if not worse, and considering the gaming card setup you could easily afford for one of these bastards, which i havnt tested the best im comparing to a… -
Re: Pavilion
Alright, so far you've been doing a good job, however I see one thing that could save you a ton of tris.

Re: how next gen weapons made?
There really is no reason to delete backfaces anymore, you'll be saving like 500 tris on a scene thats rendering 250,000 onscreen. It really does not matter at all. Now what you should do, is try and place a lot of detail in the areas that will be closest to the camera, and not worry much about areas that are off screen.… -
Re: Mercedes SLK WIP (First Post)
perhaps a suggestion to make the workflow easier and to have a cleaner mesh (it is not right now): - break it up into parts - like the doors, the hood, ect. just like you modeled the wheels seperate (you wouldn´t do that from the car mesh now woudn´t you?) - now what that changes is that you dont have to redicoulus cuts… -
Re: What is UV count?
if i had to guess, i'd say 1500 uv count probably means 500tris if using diffuse, spec, normal. or 1500 tris with just a diffuse, etc?
