Re: Emission map.. or glow...
Thing with emission maps vs Self Illumination is that I find you don't get that glow effect on adjacent geommetry in max. I'm sure this is most likely due to render settings /Indirect Illumination but am unsure how I can make a symbol that is glowing on a tablet light the adjacent surfaces of said tablet. The symbol is a… -
Weird pop-up helper when using wacom
I noticed a strange pop-up menu appearing when I left my Intuos 3 pen resting on the tablet. The same thing was causing unacceptable lag (a good half a second) when drawing in any application. Apparently it's something that Windows has introduced to help tablet PC users access a right-click menu when using a touchscreen. I… -
Re: Taking games seriously
Careful, we're getting into some serious intellectual and philosophical heavy-lifting territory if we're debating whether interpretation changes the actual event. :poly142: You've got a great point about artist intent not always being audience perception... Heck, if that wasn't the case, I doubt we'd hear Green Day's Time… -
Re: The Influence of Art Direction
I take great umbrage at hand-waving off Doom's aesthetics as accidental or arbitrary. It takes little more than a comparison to Doom 3's murky visuals, a game that was built well into the current myopic forest of art direction, to see the vitality (and legibility) present in Doom by comparison. The Doom screenshot I see… -
Re: Intuos4 USB cable worries
I have a problem about Intuos4 mid. Since this is related to that. While I am working in zbrush, the pen-pressure gets disabled automatically, than I have to really reduce the intensity down to 2-3. This only happens when I am using clay tube brush. (I think, and it started only when I upgraded to zbrush 4r2). Also, While… -
Re: Prepare to have your mind blown
most tablets that are already available these days fail mainly because of the battery life (2-4 hours is a joke, 7+ is a must). Also most of those tablet notebooks are but ugly designed (with all those silver coated elements and crazy amount of random buttons). The ipad and the courier on the other hand look clean and… -
Re: win7 pen "ripples"
What app are you getting them in? I managed to disable it in almost evertyhing pretty easily by just going into task manager->services->Tablet PC Input Service and setting it to disabled Almost everything... They showed up in 3dsmax still. I think I fixed it with the registry settings in this thread… -
Re: The iPad we've all been waiting for (AKA ModBook Pro)
it's an acceptable price for a done by hand laptop to tablet conversion. The fact that one of the components is a already marked up laptop is what's making it so expensive. I'd consider picking one up if I wasn't spending a butt load on a tech shop membership - I might look into doing my own laptop to tablet conversion… -
photoshop 5.5 any faster than 7?
so i got me a tablet pc, I love the thing. the only problem is it is a bit sluggish using photoshop and painter. im wondering if going back to 5.5 (which ive always heard people liked anyway) will speed it up at all. the system req are certainly lower. anything I will cry over missing that I use in 7 right now? Also right… -
Re: Props Thread for "The Travel"
The big thing I see in these pieces are the unwraps. Your textures are turning out very blurred even though it seems like you're using the proper map sizes. I've always hated being the anal nazi about theory on unwrapping but it's such an overlooked process it drives me batshit. Obviously there's far more important things…
