Cinema4D and Zbrush;

Mon, 18 Jan 2010 06:56:09 +0000

At first, I thought these two programs were absolute clones of Photoshop, but boy was I surprised. I did a few tinkering with them, and when it comes to text or graphics, they surely do good.

With Cinema4D, I followed a small tutorial from Media Militia. It was quite amusing, though the rendering part is time consuming. It all makes up in the end though. Seeing as you can control lighting, you can have any image a perfect render. This program has various other features that I used, mainly for text, though I did create a scene with a man removing his own hand. I guess I was bored.

ZBrush is just amazing. Another tutorial from Media Militia led me to downloading this program. At first, I thought it was only good for words and what not, but I was proved wrong. They have various templates (People, a few animals) in the 3D "gallery" one could say. After a few minutes of opening the program for the first time with the human male head preset, I had me some sort of monkey mutant with tendrils coming from its collarbone. Within another few minutes I had some sort of bird's head. If you are interested in 3D people, and objects, I do indeed recommend this program for you. The presets also have this GOTHIC feel to it, as if a deep dark grotesque gargoyle made of pure meat stared at you in the eyes. I love it.

Poll about....the best thing ever.

Replacement for Weezer :<

So, after listening to the new album over and over, I've come to the fact they suck now. Every song on it, but the Underdogs suck. Too mainstream and commercial. Anyone know any good underground/notfamous or mainstream bands?

Got any? And not BYOND.

Annoying CSS

Random post right here, but I must say that the intelligence on BYOND has fallen a bit. I mean, even going over reviews and how moronic people are make me shake my head. An example? Sure. I went to view reviews, and saw, "This game sucks"
Replying was some one with a log, and turns out the persona who said "This Game sucks" also wishes he had it. 4srs? In other news, Weezer has a song with Lil Wayne. Ew. /wrist.

Not a fan of how this came out at all. I don't even know what state I was in while making it. I'm in no state to care about or edit it now. I think its just the colors that make me mad. anyhow. i've fallen in love with this:

Lemonade

for the lulz

ya, so seeing my this text is starting to annoy me, i admit. but hey. iunno. for the lulz, in any case.

"Report if Rip" enough?

Wed, 28 Oct 2009 19:49:39 +0000

I've come across a few rips, and you know, I can't help but to wonder if the "Report if Rip" even does anything. Nothing really changes over time, except the growth of rips. It's rapid fire, one may say. Which leads me into my second concern. Have people honestly made a game "original" by slapping some new pixel art in and a new interface? Really? It makes me a bit depressed that some people can't see the difference because of a shiny new look. I guess what was said was true. Put something shiny in front of men, and they'll stop fighting and stare in awe. :\

Opacity.

Thu, 08 Oct 2009 09:46:07 +0000

This is a question for the people on BYOND who know the answer. Fufufu.

Probably those good with skins.

Anyways, I've been wondering, it is possible to have a window opaque when on hover, or in focus and while it's not, not opaque?

Spriting

Wed, 07 Oct 2009 20:47:27 +0000

Well, I guess I'm a bit rusty at pixel sprites. My main concern isn't how to get it done, that's easy. My concern is what program to use; what proportions.

So far, I've heard these programs were pretty good:

o GIMP
o MSPaint
o GraphicsGale
o Corel

But that's just what I heard. I want to know what other people of BYOND use and think is the best program to sprite in.

For proportions, simply: Should you start big then decrease size?
