Thanks, my dad's F250.

The two I use are Adobe Imageready that used to ship with old versions of photoshop, and the now integrated animation functions built into photoshop. I prefer imageready to be honest.

There are plugins to support .smd formats but I don't recommend using them, it's best to do your modelling inside of 3ds Max, and then all the skeletal\compiling work in Milkshape. Much cleaner and better process in my opinion.

What the hell is wrong with you people? Soup Miner has a very good point - the majority of us here used to do all sorts of silly stuff in their first years. I know I did.

Any more uncalled-for Dimbark bashing anywhere on this site will instantly result in bans.

If a someone honestly trying to be creative is something you just can't stomach, then you can fuck right off, right now.
What are you suggesting, that the community of TWHL should be civilized and constructive? Such a ridiculous notion!

I agree with 99 though, I somehow feel half the entire community disappearing as a result of this ruling.

Well, if I had access to the T2i personally I would definitely try to get some betterdiferent comparisons, but unfortunately I can only mess with it extremely briefly, can't take it outside or anything.

I just felt the compulsion to do a on-the-spot comparison after the T2i took the shittiest conditions possible and gave me a great image [With the exception of noise], the E10 took a lot more fucking around with but I still got there in the end. That's what matters, right?

The point I was making was that you're comparing actually viewing an image to pixel peeping, 4x6 is to the standard forum size of 500 pixels, and a 20x30 is like viewing the images at 100%.

I'm not comparing technical specs, the T2i obviously has higher ISO ratings, better MP counts, it's OBVIOUSLY going to win. My point is to say that you don't need expensive technology to output good PICTURES. If you want to pixel peep you're missing my point of comparison. So yes, I am comparing aesthetics and not literal image quality like ISO and resolution.

At first watching you flip shit over nothing because you intentionally twist my words and mis-comprehend everything I say was slightly humorous at first, but damn you have problems. Have I directly aimed an insult at you with that post? Why do you feel the need to do so to me when I haven't said shit to you?

Every single image on this entire forum get's resized to 500 pixels wide and yet you seem to have been able to evaluate images, perfectly fine.

So why do you need to see individual pixels to see my 'point'? Regardless of however many pixels you started with, they all get downsized to the forum.

It's not exactly easy to take a picture of the camera you're using unless you use a mirror or a second camera. Unfortunately a mirror is extremely unfeasible and I don't have enough money or resources to get a T2i and another E-10.

The results are from both cameras, read the EXIF data.

or the Olympus?

Of course the T2i raped the Olympus [Other then noise, but that's only because it was at 3200 ISO], but I'm quite impressed by the results of the Olympus. Both cameras were placed in the exact same spot, identical lighting conditions.

I'm trying to do some greenscreen work in CS:S and I want to do it on a existing map but here's the problem:
I can't figure out a easy way to take every texture in the map and replace it with a singular [green] texture, short of decompiling the map and actually doing it manually... I can't take a demo from one map and play it on another so I can't decompile the map.

Personally, I think if this was genuinely functional or even legit, a lot of development companies would have invested in it already.
I think this comment summed it up pretty well:
"The gaming/computer technology industry does the following: They basically take a bag of chips and sell it piece by piece, every year, instead of the whole bag at once. This metod is extremely profitable, as you all know, so it's not in their interest to give us all at once."

It does make a difference to people with low end machines. You're comparing something that's been completely optimized for low end machines to something that is designed to be run on high end machines with the option of lowering the settings. It's not the same thing.

That being said you're going to have to come onto a reasonable compromise, you could try going for highest fps, but then you'd have quake I era graphics... Nobody's saying you have to make Crysis level graphics... Just don't create quake level graphics either.

I understand what you mean, all I've posted here is just shit from my Kodak, but honestly, without actually seeing pictures, think about it. If I didn't have the technological skills required to justify purchasing a DSLR, would I really have survived 8 rolls of film through a fully manual camera?
