Re: BF2 is teh! WINZOR!
Dunno, I hate not being SF, you run across an artillery, you can't blow it up. A 6800GT will run the game at max detail without slowdown. Mine is a 6800 standard and it does everything except high texture detail, the GT comes with 256MB minimum so high tex detail should work. What kinda annoys me is identifying enemies,… -
Re: For my next trick... (Video card with TV-Out)
the drivers for nvidea are much better than the ati ones, i have both and have had most of all the last incarnations since the rage ati cards, i think untill you get up to the 6800 series the nvidea drivers make the difference, the only other sugestion is if you want one with a built in tv tuner then i would go for one of… -
Re: Unreal Tournament 3
I'm wondering how well it will run on my 3.0ghz, 1gb ram, and 6800 Ultra, lower end settings I would hope still run silky smooth. I've been LAN-ing it up with some coworkers a bit at lunch and its fun as hell. Just miss having those adrenaline pills! -
Re: Bone Driven Facial Rigging
The wrinkle maps are entirely engine dependent, you can do it in max by using a composite map and animating the opacity of each layer/wrinkle map. Each layer has its own blending options like Photoshop as well as a mask for each layer. Typically the opacity is wired to the same controller moving the morphs/bones around so… -
Re: Polycruncher thing
You don't have to compile Meshlab. You're probably looking at the source code download link by mistake. Grab the exe from here: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=149444&package_id=165026&release_id=685016 -
Re: Looking to get a new comp
The case is normal form factor. Some cases supply better drive housing arrangements and tend to be built more sturdy. I have a case like the black one you posted now. Yes it does fit everything, but it's very crowded and cumbersome. Then again i'm actively inside the case weekly for upgrades and such. Asus is the way to… -
Re: Quad SLI
It's not overkill at all for someone like me. I'm a huge flight-sim fanatic, and cranking up all the details at high resolution REALLY kills my current 'top of the line' PC. - Athlon64 3500+ (o/c from 2.2ghz to 2.8ghz) - GeForce 6800GT (o/c to ULTRA specs) - 2GB Corsair ULL DDRRAM I play IL2 Sturmovik/Pacific Fighters, and… -
Re: is SLI worth the mooolah
No, it's not. Most games aren't optimized for SLI yet, so you get only moderate frame rate boosts for the extra money you're spending. Instead of getting two 6600gts in SLI for example, you should get a 7900gt. Check out this page for an example: http://www.tomshardware.com/2005/05/24/vga_charts_vi/page8.html Two 6800gts… -

Re: Opacity map not displaying properly in Viewport (Max)
That's why I advise setting the Diffuse's Alpha Source to None, so you don't get the Diffuse color bleed. For example... http://boards.polycount.net/showthread.php?t=68743 And the Opacity map doesn't strictly need Alpha Source set to Image Alpha, on or off doesn't matter, that's just force of habit. However it does need…
