How about a nice update journal, one that will last a while...

:bulletred::bulletred::bulletred: ----[ Work ]----
Currently working on a Plane Crash III (completely new scene), coming along nicely. I also plan to work on an iPod v2 as well as another seascape sometime in the near future. :) Oh, and a collab between ~DesertViper and myself...

Happy new year!

Cool, just hit 365 pageviews right on new year's eve :D So, a little update...

I just upgraded my PC for X-mas. I used to have:

:bulletred: Pentium 4 2.66ghz (533MHz FSB, 512KB L1 cache)
:bulletred: Crap Chaintech motherboard (SPT800)
:bulletred: 1GB of PC2700 DDR

Now I've got:

:bulletblue: Athlon 64 3700+ (1GHz FSB, 1MB L2 cache)
:bulletblue: ASRock 939Dual-SATA2 motherboard
:bulletblue: 1.5GB of PC3200 RAM (perhaps soon 2GB)

I haven't done much 3dsmax work/gaming/stress-testing with it (yet!), but I ran a few quick tests; one of which was rendering a 200-segment Geosphere (radius 70.0) with the Catmull-Rom antialiaser. That took 7-8 seconds on my Pentium 4, and it's only 4-5 seconds now.. so that's cool. Expect some radical fluid simulations soon or something! ;P

Anyways, enough about that, let's see... new year's resolutions: do more deviations involving explosions!!.. that's about all. ;P

Oh, you should definitely check out:
- Fellow Sith lord & very cool guy! Amazing 3d work...
- Another cool guy, awesome lineart! :D
- Incredible Terragen stuff, among the best I've seen.
- Yet another cool guy, cool gallery as well :)
- If you haven't seen his work yet.. just.. go. :)
One last cool guy, always has great feedback and awesome work!

That's it.. see you next year (in about... 48 minutes.) :D

Whoa. :wow:

Got it back!!

Fri Dec 2, 2005, 7:20 AM
There it is! I've regained complete access to the old drive, and all of my work is still there. I'm immediately going to make copies to my new drive, and then another copy to the backup one I've got.

*very happy* :D

  • Mood: happy!
