Dangerous hobbies !18th January 2010 Burning Nitric Acid and Sulfuric Acid isn't dangerous. I already did it in the kitchen. The problem is getting the fume (which is Nitrous Oxide). That's why I ordered the equipment, but it took three months to get here. :| The dangerous part is mixing th*snip* |

Movies versus reality17th January 2010 I'm not entirely sure how to phrase this question, but something like; 'When do you think is the right time to draw the line between movies and reality?' should suffice.

QOTD : What next?16th January 2010 No, Mudbox doesn't animate. Mudbox is just used for sculpting. I could export it as a normal map, or import the model into Max and use it to create a normal map. But the model's not even done yet! :p |

BMax Keyboard Checking12th January 2010 This is not an effective way to learn BlitzMax. You're trying to recreate Blitz/Blitz3D in BlitzMax, based on what you already know. It'll make programming in BlitzMax slow and cumbersome, and in the end will not allow you to learn the language effectively*snip* |
