# as it's quiet tonight
have an arty post - a model I'm working on*

Yes, it is low fucking poly, and yes it may be used for a game.

* I remember when that phrase meant I was about to get a slap from an anorexic girl

# Sculptris?
Nice arm muscles. Been messing with Zbrush today. Great program, but the interface is evil.

# sculptris indeed.
ZBrush isn't a program, it's an exercise in making people go insane. Worst. Interface. Ever. Sculptris does the modelling side of things a thousand times better than Zbrush. It's just a shame that it doesn't have any of the power features that ZBrush has. I spent most of yesterday scouring the web for ways to avoid using ZBrush and discovered a neat little 3DS plugin called Wrapit, which does semi-automated low-poly topology creation around hi-poly meshes. Very useful and allows me to avoid opening ZBrush ever again.

# 'programme'
I am disappointed in both of you.

# a programme is an itinerary of events.
a program is a software application.

# Oh.
I assumed that Zbrush was an algorithmic process for within sculptris, I did not know that it was software in it's own right.

Now I feel dirty.

# That one was deliberate, a kind of clever jest.
I take no pride in that though, the programme one was not.

I think you should have /board choose a name for him.

# now you mention it
yeah. I didn't realize it, but I guess that must have been the inspiration. I had forgotten all about boglins! Now I want one for my stylus pen.

# if it is used for a game
will it be a goody or a baddy?
(I helped save b3ta! Mousing, Tue 12 Apr 2011, 22:35, archived)
# depends on your perspective.
Is the player automatically a goody, or not? Would creatures under the player's control be assigned the same good or bad alignment as the player?
(I helped save b3ta! Damocles wants no part of your debauchery, Tue 12 Apr 2011, 22:40, archived)
# hmmm
the player is potentially a bad guy, I'd say the creature would be assigned the same alignment as the player.
(I helped save b3ta! Mousing, Tue 12 Apr 2011, 22:46, archived)
# in the game, the player will play a bad
guy, but will end up doing some good by the story's end. So I guess Neville is a bad creature, but working for the player, so it's not his fault.

# sculptris is fantastic
but as soon as i start doing something detailed, the bloody computer slows to shit.. it's only an ancient laptop.

edit:wonderfully done

# turn the detail slider down to about 10%
and it should prevent the mesh from getting too detailed. If it still gets slow, hit the reduction button a few times to simplify the whole mesh.

It's currently on my sofa, looking through the want ads. I think it wants to buy a new monocle.
