Updates

Well, a lot has happened since my last entry, so here's a little update.

First of all, hard drive... er, incident. I was having problems with programs crashing/no longer starting and a few performance issues, so I figured I'd reinstall windows. I've done it before; boot with CD, choose settings, it reverts OS to factory defaults, documents safe, and what have you.

Well, it decided to do things differently this time, and without giving me an option of any kind... well, let's just say that all .blend files prior to 2009 are gone :|

Good news is I bought a new monitor; dual-screen once more :D
They were all out of the 22" widescreens I wanted, so I settled for a 21.6" wide. Lol.

In other news, I've been learning flash and actionscript3 for some time now, and I'm hoping to have something presentable one of these days. I'll probably just start of doing remakes of classic games until I learn how to make something fun, or at least original :)

Also, tutorials. I'm planing on writing more of them on Blender. My todo list so far:


  • Artifacts - explaining the different types of artifacts/model anomalies and how they can be corrected.

  • Modeling tips - this one's kinda generic. Basically, I was planning on writing about some modeling problems I've come across (and solved). This is going to be more of a series though, not just one tutorial :P


And that's about it :)

I thought you were supposed to backup all of the data before reinstalling an OS?
:iconhafunui:
Yeah. I didn't need to the other times so I figured it would be fine. I took the risk and I got burned.
:iconramoagen:
Oh windows :C

We should MSN again sometime.
:iconhafunui:
Yeah, we should.
:iconkram1032:
Always back up your work, if you're not sure wether you might need it later! :)

Lol I now also have a new screen^^
My old 1280*1024 19" or something on the left and my new 22" 1680*1050 on the right :D

The tutorial about how to fix artefacts sounds VERY useful for beginners!
:iconhafunui:
I got 1680*1050 on the LEFT and 1280*1024 on the right :D
:iconkram1032:
lol just the other way round^^
Well, that was my first thought too, but my desk didn't allow that kind of organization^^

Very interesting lol: The smaller WITH frame is hust as high as the bigger one withOUT! :lmao:
