I´d like to see more about everything TD-ish

Things about Scripted Ops, Automatization....REALTIME SHADERS (!!!!)
Stuff like that would be awesome

Not really experienced in this field...but i tell you, what i have heared and read about this: Render a very rough particle pass and do the rest in post...the results are so much easier to tweak when doing it in post-pro. So...just form some "spark"particles and let them do what you want i...

Contra! A splitting serves no one, as it would then be up to the user to decide, whether his work is "pro" or "noob"...and also would it make everyone even more afraid of posting stuff into the "pro"-section, as there would always be the sword of Damocles, that others w...

it´s definitely a great piece of art! Worth a Header-Thumbnail ;) I share you thoughts about the compo-approach. It took me some time to get into it, but now i cant understand, how you could do without. Re-Rendering sucks and it´s too timeconsuming most of the time...so better prepare the scene with...

I´m in love with all of your work...and so am i with this piece...
Your style is awesome and it´s interesting to see you developing it further!

Deracus, I'm not looking for "thank yous", but what I am looking for is that people value what we're doing, find it useful, find the material educational, etc etc, As this IS about the only feedback i get to the whole redi thing. That also includes what you'd like to see, as I'm pretty su...

You are doing an amazing job, extending Softimage to capabilities, way larger, than what it was before...
Your fluid-solution is amazing...the particle renderer finally gives Softimage the ability to do things, that should be in there by default and now this one...yeah...amazing!!!

Keep that up

Sorry...didn´t said something about that allthough i read it with great joy..

so here it is:

Thank you!

Very cool. Thank you very much!

i had almost written an email concerning the "how it was done" :) Good to have you here now, as it shortens the way and opens the answer to the broad pubic :) Could you give me some more details about the shots at 30 and 40 seconds? A breakdown, making-of or whatever would be reeeeaaaaally...

thanks for the input.
Is that your usual Workflow or just for presentation-Purposes?

any in-depth-info about your approaches in ice would be appreciated...esspecially concerning the "mesh-to-cubeCloud-effect" you show in your tech-reel...

not really on-topic...but how has he made the look in the second video?

Is it rendered and later overlayed? Or has he baked a shadow-map?
The Quality of that Viewport is by far superior to what XSI can deliver...

Looks cool

Especially the Strand-Stuff looks amazing...would love to know more about how it was done in detail!

Repeating the same question over and over won't get you better answers, I'm afraid... [-x Maybe you could start explaining what you want exactly... Hello, If for any help that you're referring to assistance provided with the software, you are moderator, I can not say one thing: you're in the worst ...

@Deracus - you're wrong, at least depending on what you try to achieve... leaving the "over" node out of the equation creates very harsh shadows I however was trying to recreate the shadow my default pass with shadows gave me... Ok...with that you are right...but what i do most of the tim...

looks great!
Some "how it was made" would be cool to read ;)
