try wireframe, always works for me..

definately, make sure the viewports are all in wireframe too...

and if your in max and using meshsmooth and high iterations or nurbs sub div then make it so it isnt viewable in the viewports but only when rendered, cus that slows it down alot too in the viewports

[Zefar]

I only use meshsmooth to check if it looks good and yes wireframe did some job by reducing lag. But when I'm gonna do some UVW mapping and gonna move the polygons ist lag a lot, just need to get used to it oh the good computer has 3.4gh while the bad one has 1.4gh big change also ram is bigger on the other one

(I've noticed the "seniors" of my day whern I was a young P2Lian have moved one and SHIVMOO, syntex and others like me have taken their place :S - still see some around like Andy and such)

Yea ur quite right like whateva happened to HellzDev lol

Yey, cos... like, i'm the best... Possibly. I did dissapear for a while... But, now im here

I MIGHT actaully concider entering this competition. As you all know, i'm a photoshop guy... not too good on the old C4D... but, i'm getting there

Nice entries so far by the way, really really nice!

BTW.. Does anyone fancy donating to the 'Andy 3D center' - It's been open since about 1996, nad basically helps young children called Andy to help with Cinema 4D.. Well, basically, i'd just like some renders to look at and study to see how they were done - So, if anyone has some old stuff that they fancy letting me have a look at, please feel free to send me a PM


Thankyoooo,
Andy

EDIT - Ok, so... i've been working on this for like, a while. Not bad to say the only tutorials i have EVER done was one from greycobra, and the start of that character moddeling... which means, it's like.. my 2nd render I dunno if i can be arsed to do anymore, but.. obviously its just started

I have 3D Studio Max but i dont know how to use it at all
I want to learn how to make abstract art with it :'(
But i should learn the basics first. Where could i do that :/

[Jamie Huskisson]

you guys are all doing great its great to see alot of you guys who previously admitted to having never touched 3D and coming on leaps and bounds to produce awesome stuff here..

its also great to see the more experienced guys helping out

a true mini 3d community we have going here

btw, sorry to post this in the middle of a comp, but i thought a new topic might be useless

[SHIVMOO]

you are probably right lol..
lots of random poeple wandering what the hell you where talking about

and i agree... poeple are coming along really well !
