What is a good price for webhosting?
I like Step 2, it's straight and to the point. Step three I was going to question, but then I remembered that most tend to consider being eaten by a dragon to be a "bad thing" %-P
Eeeee.... Been away for a while. Doing things, but nothing real interesting. Not much need for me here anymore since I'm not *doing* anything, and now that both Fyrre and Wooly are back there's plenty of talky talk to go around :O
Your input is still welcome, though.
Did you render? Some of those things don't show up until you render. You have to take it on faith that it's working. 8-/

If that's Nerd 3D's footsteps there was, I believe, an issue with it with an earlier release (I know there was an issue using more than one of the 'props'). You do see the effect straight away as it is based on Dformers, which also means you need to pick on something with a decent mesh for it to have an effect.

...yes, numerous tests and nothing.

Dang! Seriously considering that... :gulp:
me too :)
downloaded and installed Silo (always looking for a modeler I can actually understand)...
... man, talk about huge, EPIC disappointment!! I got so excited - there.. on the top bar was the Holy Grail of digital art software... I was practically giddy! Someone had finally listened! So I spoke clearly and calmly (as I could) and pressed the 'Create' button!
... and NOTHING - all it did was drop a menu! :cry:
mean, cruel, nasty coders!
(all in sarcasm, of course - I will try it out once I am awake enough to make a real effort - or tomorrow; whichever comes first)

...I installed through the DIM today (for some reason it was uninstalled, probably when I was messing with Waves on the Beach) so it I should have the latest version. As I mentioned, I followed all the steps in the tutorial including adding all ten DFormer nodes first. I am using one of the ground planes that is part of the set so everything should work. One thing I notice is that when I adjust the footprint depth, the green "control" cone doesn't raise or lower but instead it's shape distorts kind of like handles for Gen4 skirts do after autofitting.
...unlike bees, wasps don't lose their stinger and can sting multiple times.
Where I live Yellojackets are a real bane beginning about now until mid autumn. Like wasps they don;t die after stinging and cna be even more aggressive.
yellowjackets are eeeeevil!!
real problem is while yellowjackets are carnivorous like wasps (as opposed to herbivorous like bee species), they are macro carnivores instead of micro/same size. Wasps feed on other insects / arachnids / 'bugs' while yellowjackets feed on meat of any type but prefer animals and fish over 'bugs'. Thankfully, since they are hive/pack oriented (unlike wasps, which tend to be solo hunters even when living in a nest), yellowjackets are primarily scavengers / carrion eaters as opposed to taking down live pray (though I imagine in desparate times they would)... but it still means they see animals/people as 'potential dinner' instead of 'threat' which really changes how they handle their aggression (which is abundant). That is what makes them so bad / dangerous... they don't *fear* man/animals the same way the others do.
if intellect ever does rise from the insect world, it will probably be yellowjackets (or something similar)... they are just social *enough* to live, work, and hunt together while not being drones and don't fear the rest of the wildlife enough to hold them back. Basically like human ancestors...
...most buildings in those days had peaked roofs so you would have to extend the front and back walls in a triangular shape to support it. Roofs were usually wood shingled or thatched.
well, depends greatly on the part of the world (and the climate) that building is for!
* high, peaked roofs for colder climes (so the snow slides off and doesn't build up to be dangerous or collapse the roof)
* Domes / arcs (light colored) for windy and hot climes (better to withstand wind/sand and reflect off the heat) - Egyptian cities being the exception to the rule... the 'Monumental Block' style typical of fascism/dictators overrode such 'minor' concerns as climate!! (though at least they *did* go for the 'open' style in some concession to reality)
* Thatched/fronds for tropical and subtropical with rain (lots of surface area for evaporation and easy to replace often - which is necessary in those)
* Traditional (of whatever style) peaked roofs for the standard temperate range (America, Europe, Southern Russia, China... ) - handles the mix well. \
... so I guess the answer to your question is itself another (irritatingly) question: Where is said building going to be built?
Morning. Iz sunny for the first time this week. There has been snow in the hills out of town, and a couple of snowboarders lost in a blizzard. No snow at all in the inner city of course but windstorms have trashed the hood again. Maybe the roaring 40s have moved to the 30's, iz extreme even for the shipwreck coast. The whole household is in various grips of a bad Flu, can't remember the last time that happened, think we are all a little burned out. On the upside I'm not taking work on, has gotta be goof in the long run. Must be a little feverish still, the day seems a little wierd nice sun notwithstanding :lol:
George Carlin! What a great mind.

...thatched roofs are also seen on older rural structures in the UK as well.

My grandad was the last working Thatcher in the Cotswolds in the 1960s, they had to revive the craft a couple of decades ago :)

true - actually pretty much everywhere there was sufficient ruffage / underbrush / twigs to thatch! Though it was usually for the poorer dwellings... more of a 'cost / effort' vs. lifecycle / durability consideration ("Sure, a slate roof would last longer, be drier, etc. ... but I can replace this one 20 times for the effort and cost of building a slate!")... plus Yawnulus' daughter's far reach! ( "eh... good enough.")

My Grandad had a choice, thatch roofs in Ireland, or emigrate to Canada and homestead.
The rest, as they say, was history.

because, let's face it - most of the time in life, it does actually work out that way!
... if it is not a boss it is the customer.. or the relative... or the child... or (well, you see the pattern)
Now, Gecko, you seem to have almost as much faith in humanity as I have.
"I got this letter from the IRS, can you help me?"
Examine letter. "Where are the other two? The one that tells me what the issue is that is sending them to collections in a week?"
(btw, the third letter has at least a 60 day window, and follows 60 days after the second... which comes 60 days after the first one.)
Agreed!

Sad to say, but I have that and have not tried it out yet. :red:

...that's OK. Gave in for now,. Wasted too much time with it and I have a deadline to meet. Did a tonne of kitbashing in this one anyway to create a setting that definitely pushed the both mine and the programme's limits.
Seems I'm having difficulties as of late with some of Nerd3D's tools in 4.6 that I didn't experience back in 3.1. I must be missing something.
