GOTD I bought NIcotinell chewing gum to try instead of the lozenges. Not as effective

that's probably a good thing... you are going to crave nicotine eventually, gum/lozenges just delaying the inevitible imo

Just take up chewing tobacco, YI. Nutritious, fragrant and devastatingly dashing to be found sporting a spit bottle

Lemme know how much you'd like sent over

GOTD: All stocked up for making cocktails and have been too sick and/or busy to even make any. Also, do not particularly fancy drinking on my own at home and I fear my friends shall not appropriately bask in the glory of green chartreuse, so I have nothing to offer them. Woe

Snus is awesome.

So is green chartreuse.

shnuss sounds like a dirty word.

retzie · Post by **retzie** » Wed Mar 10, 2010 4:51 pm

Witty, it smells absolutely feral. And these fuckers carry the bottles around with them everywhere (I was once stuck across from a dude with one on a plane :scarred: )

Wikipedia wrote:Snus is a form of snuff that is used in a manner similar to American dipping tobacco, but typically does not result in the need for spitting.

Real men spit

YI - it's on its way. I have included some beef jerky, chaps and a cowboy hat for good measure.

someone here just wrote a poem

when you open the mail and it is brown

you have a look and then you frown

Because you realise that someone has sent some poo

And it is generally because they are angry at you!

some 3d but mostly 2d cards w/alpha spread around with randomization etc. heaps of different species and tens of thousands in a shot.

way too many for all-3d with the timeframe required. it'd be nice. 12gb of ram and an 8core don't cut it, need a 64gb beast

looking more into Vue for this stuff atm, but you can't use vue with maya lighting only vue lights which is weirddd. can use mentalray tho which is good.... needs moar tinkering time

nic · Post by **nic** » Fri Mar 12, 2010 1:12 pm

lol vue is hell as soon as you try integrating into max or maya.
vray proxy tbh + vray scatter = instant forest

boxx dual xeon octacore w/ 16 gb needed

tinkering time - never enough, i feel teh painorz

yeah ive seen some demos of that looks pretty good for that kinda stuff.

problem is the accuracy of native species they require with this type of stuff tho - even to create one good accurate model of each tree/plant species needed would take a while. find the damn things, go out photograph leaves, bark, photoshop time, spend hours/days with painteffects or other methods generating and applying them and getting the forms right...

with the time (and money) we get to do renders its just not possible. so many ppl still don't understand how long 3d takes. and still want the quality. i blame shit like avatar lol

use maya and i prefer it, but that is one thing that proxy/scatter would be good in investigate if vue proves too finicky

mmm Boxx
