Someone reported the 'ass' trap picture ;_________;

Photobucket said it violated thier policy lol. It wasnt mine lol;, i guess the person didnt like thier work reposted. Ehh they should have wrote it on the realese, thoguh thier name is still creditied i didnt even change the file name lol.

No regrets right? worth the lolz

hmm pondering on a few things while talking to a firend who takes physics,

An Physics is like sticking my imagination in a straight jacket!
I cant beleive i studied it for three years lol. Everything is hard set and judgemental, silly really since they cant look past thier own ideas and think further.

^_^"

Ive started work on a huge canvas which is 92cm x 156cm. Should be really fun ^_^ starting the wash as soon as ive decided on the the outline areas of everything. Should be really fun.

Update;

Yay the back wash is done now,


I used a broken 1cm brush for this, the pain... i have cramp in my hand now lol. It took two layers so far, the centre neg' zone will have a man set out like leonardo's virtulent man, though much more in my style Around the edges will be other pictures of anatomy and a break down of thier muscles adaptations ect ect. I finally get to use my fancy calligraphy again, teach's dont like me doing it since i use alot of ink and time, but ive water'd down aload of black acrylic for the wash and just mixed it with my reamining ink. So i have a lucazade bottle full now.

Probably one of the largest canvass' ive worked on in a long time, should do well with it.

Okay, so something that's been bothering for a while now is that when I make a camera in the free version of DBPro, the backdrop color changes to a putrid green color and will not change no matter what I do. Anybody know how I can fix this?

Also, sometimes if I'm using a matrix the program crashes and a message balloon pops up saying that my display driver (graphics chip) isn't working correctly, but then everything goes back to normal. While these aren't very big issues, they annoy me. Can anybody tell me what's up? Do I need to upgrade my version of DBPro? Can I even do that with the free version?

The second camera's default backdrop is green. I think there's an optional parameter to set the background colour for a specific camera.

Thanks NeX, I'll look into it.

DBPro is certainly a lot more different than DBC...more so than I thought it would be.

EDIT: Yup, you were right. There's an optional flag in the Color Backdrop command that allows you to specify which camera has what color. Problem solved! Thanks!

Nothing's wrong that I can see -- did you verify the comment by typing in the randomly generated characters? It took me a couple of tries before I noticed one had to do that. But that's probably because I'm "special".

I just implemented normal mapping and specular highlighting in GLSL... it's pretty complicated at first but when it clicks it's awesome.

Your logic eludes me, sir. This is clearly North southern EastWelsh. Roughly translated, it means:

I really hope to catch that the situation is able, everything (approached lasted). In my daughter of this I,… The mine don' that you are clear, in sequence you appreciate; They recognize the taste of T of such way. Since then and so ingualmente that [does not know



Actually, I don't know that much about Eastwelsh, so I just passed one of Coffee's previous statements through Multibabel and this is what happened.

I should really finish debugging first, But i've been debugging for a few days now, so i thought some animation commands would be nice, (See Attached Pic), There's no point to these commands except visually in the editor, (Seeing an Objects Animation)

I just pressed the Shadows button in my editor, and although it looks good, (See Pic), My FPS Rate dropped to 2

I know shadows causes it to run slow as it literally doubles the number of objects on screen, Im going to activate Culling next for all created objects to increase the FPS rate, but can anyone suggest any other major ways to increase FPS significantly?

It was a joke, though Welsh looks almost as ridiculous (the point of the joke), one of the longest place names in the world, is Welsh, which is:

Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwyll-llantysiliogogogoch

Which looks like somebody mashed into a keyboard randomly.

And the evidence for those left ignorant to the world's wonders:

Hmm. Did I break it or make it awesome?

I'm trying to combine the grayscale and color so that it fades from bright colors to dark, instead of using the uber-slow fade bitmap when a grayscale color is selected. Still needs some fixing I think.

EDIT: Works better now. Also fixed a bizarre bug where clicking on objects or menus after closing the Load-Object GUI was causing a crash. Turns out the current camera wasn't being set back to 0, even though all other cameras had been deleted. I wonder which camera it was trying to use.

Nice color picker Venge! I might try and implement one in my editor for lights as well (at a later stage; at this point I'll be lucky if I can get it back to a stage where I can release a demo for NaGaCreMo). Your code makes it look easy!

Thanks. The code is a bit different now, got the darker colors bit working.



I'm wondering if there's a way to increase a light's power/intensity without increasing its range. Look how dim this light is, even with it so close to the objects.



I'll be using shaders eventually, though, so maybe I can make it brighter then.

Excellent! How come I'm having no trouble following your code there, yet can't understand simpler things sometimes? What kinda brain do you think does that to a human being?!?!?!

Also, what does it mean when you're hungry and haven't had an appetite in days? Does it mean you're sick? As far as I know I'm not sick, but I'm having to force myself to eat anymore...it's a little concerning, it's been going on for about a week now. Any ideas?

EDIT: Actually, I had an appetite on New Year's Eve. So it's not been a week, just every couple of days I feel like I have to force myself to eat when I don't want to. Meh.

Really? Even the

nr# = cr#-(j*6) : ng# = cg#-(j*6) : nb# = cb#-(j*6)

part? Cuz that was what was making the weird patterns earlier, I think I was dividing or doing something else very wrong. Anyway, I usually make my code as readable as possible, in case I forget what I typed something for and didn't comment it.

I've had the not-hungry thing before, unfortunately I was having one during extended-family Christmas dinner a couple weeks ago, so my uncles were making fun of me. I wasn't sick either, just didn't feel like eating anything. Maybe you should do more physical activity to make your body hungry.

I actually didn't see the - in the equations, but for the most part I get what that does. I guess my brain is weird and somehow figured it out.

It looks like you're creating a new float (nr#) and assigning it to the old float, then getting the proper value through the -(j*6) part. I wouldn't have come up with that entirely myself if I were coding it from scratch though, so...yeah.

That's just it; I am hungry, I just don't have an appetite. I'm pretty sure it's related to my horrible sleeping habits anymore. I'm going to be in bed by no later than 12 tonight, dog gone it!
