Back in the game

Hello everybody! Just as a heads-up, tis is not Ahab but his daughter, Nekia. I used to do some silly work on sandbox, sauerbraten, and others a while ago when I was younger, and am back to help out once again! I will most likely be doing some modeling, perhaps mapping, and making some nice, new tex...

Re: 2.8 Wishlist

I'd like to see a command that can save the cut/paste buffer directly to a file and to retrieve it from such a file directly into the cut/save buffer to be used on the map you're working on. These files should be saved in a 'library' folder. This would allow for easier re-use of cool geometry betwee...

texture making tool; NeoTextureEdit

I don't know if anyone has come across this before, but this looks like a nice texture making tool. Its node based so anyone who has worked with nodes in blender should feel right at home. http://neotextureedit.sourceforge.net/images/screenshots/nte0.5.1a_screenshot_01_large.png and its cross platfo...

Re: workstation broke ^#$%$#^%!!!!!

I'm leaving for Brisbane next Tuesday to get married; my fiance is a lovely blonde Aussie girl. We decided to get married on 11-11-11. I'll be back the following Wednesday, so I'll be in Australia, or on an airline, for a week. She'll follow a couple of days later and be with me here in NJ. Then all...

Re: workstation broke ^#$%$#^%!!!!!

thanks for the tip, but I'm set on a workstation with its heavy duty power supply and expandability. I got carried away and bid on one already... two dual-core opterons and 4gig ram for 170$ and I'm winning so far I doubt I'll win, but there are others ranging in price from $200 to $2000 ( a $1500 h...

Re: 2.8 Wishlist

I'd think water splash effects would be a bit more involved than just a texture change. the size of the splash would be related to the size of the object entering the water, and the height of the splash would be related to the force of the object entering the water. I'm assuming that the particles w...

Re: 2.8 Wishlist

It'd be nice to have Bullet Physics in the engine, but that'd take a bit of work. Maybe some code could be re-used from the intensity engine which began such a thing. It would also make adding objects a little bit more involved ( I assume as you'd need to also enter various physical attributes inste...

Re: workstation broke ^#$%$#^%!!!!!

arcones: I'm afraid I've lost all my stuff ( I'm slowly rebuilding my pile of digital junk again ). I suck at GIMP anyways...I usuallu just get my youngest daughter to do pictures, etc. for me. She's even better now that she was a couple of years ago when her work was the PAS splashscreen. For blend...
