Wrote this for someone on polycount. Should be obvious to some of you but most people usually use the nvidia plugin the wrong way!

Quote from kleinlukaI remember trying this stuff with Minos a few years ago. It totally doesn't work.... I tried a bunch of different ones, LSD, ecstasy, heroin..... also the kids in the news report are doing it wrong. you're supposed to turn off the lights and lean back and close your eyes while listening to the wav files. Anyway, it's useless. The only thing it did was waste a couple hours of my life. :roll:
lol
I like how they sell auto destructive .wav files as if they were "doses" in their site haha
":cy4on6fr]Hey wtf... where does all the hate comes from. His last 2 movies were bad indeed, but Signs, The Sixth Sense, and Unbreakable were fanstastic.
LIRL
hehe I'd like to know why people even care about this guy, his movies suck!
Quote from SteppenwolfI don't know the pupose of your last post HP. This is not EOT. Besides that the idea of a higher conciousness is part of many philosophies and religions, including the big ones (look up "divine spark").
I have similar beliefs.
I do believe our consciousness lives on in some sort of energy-like state roaming the universe after death. Some religions call that "soul". However, I find it hard to believe that this energy-like state is sentient and driven by human emotions as they describe it. It's probably ruled by greater universal rules and as organic life is subject to evolution. These universal rules may be called as "God" by some religions.
The way I like to see it is that every "soul" is born the simplest way possible and then, through evolution, progressively incarnates in more complex life forms around the universe.
I once read a really far-fetched theory about Egyptians but it sounded pretty cool: The author claimed that the Egyptians were in fact former members of a nation in a much more advanced civilization somewhere else in the galaxy that were "sent" to Earth as a punishment for something terrible they did on their planet. That kind of fits with their obsession with Orion, after-life and their collapse.
I have no proofs or religions to back up my theories but I like to see the universe my own way. Besides, that's a lot cooler than just blacking out and ceasing to exist!
nice "pinto" stepp 
Cool, loved the developer video
I have some experience with Unity Free and it's great to see how you guys tackled the 3 most annoying things imo: No file versioning system, no lightmap generation tool and bad instancing support.
Quick question: How long have you been working with javascript?
Keep it up!
Quote from MazyI'll admit that I'm not really following the entire BP Gulf disaster that much, but I wasn't aware that there was a news blackout on it from the government, sounds very
to me. Hope all this doomsday talk isn't true, sounds like a disaster on such a enormous level that I think the article is right about humans being unable to grasp it.Anyway, I'm gonna go get a beer
Good call 
I just hope I can accomplish everything I want before dying!!
shit 
Why is this in EOT?
emos on testosterones
Thanks a lot man, I love the rocks in BC =)
Quick tip: It may also be a good idea to bake radiosity to vertex colors. It's quite easy to do that in 3ds max:
- add a skylight
- go to Rendering > Advanced Lighting > Radiosity (it's a good idea to assign an exposure control to fine tune the results later)
- hit "Start"
- go to Tools - Assign Vertex Colors and Assign
a simple teapot with radiosity baked to vertex colors only:

You can mix that with handpainted vertex colors and the results will be fantastic!
Keep it up phill!!
Had a lot of fun playing as demoman this weekend
woah i remember those rocks from the random model thread
Kickass work dudes, best luck to all of you!!
You are the best man
