Re: Apcd/ Windows 11 issues.

In relation to releases, its not easy to properly analyse any trends over the past 10 years. Sage's incredible output, developer outliers like John Brooks (of whom all designs should be disregarded as genuine releases) and some designers releasing back-catalogues, make it difficult to crunch the num...

Re: Just bought an Xbox X

I wanted 2K25 to be good (badly) but its not. Ball physics are Ok and some of the grass textures look great, but the planting/objects are just awful. Its hard to get past it and some of the other textures (e.g. bunkers) as the courses look totally unrealistic, almost cartoonish at times. Sorry, but ...

Good luck Ian Hi Ian - thanks Have always meant to one day nail importing 3D objects, but not sure it can be easily done atm. My 3D work is mostly grandstands and viewing ar...

Re: Maximum textures

Thanks so much mate (trust you are well!). I am doing alot of tournament signage at the moment and I have created many (many!) new textures. But mostly all I need are 128s and 256s for that. So if the limit is based on the total size of the library, that's welcome news. I just did a heap of work wit...

Maximum textures

Hello designers

I understand there is a ceiling to the number of textures that can be used.
Can anyone tell me what that limit is - and what happens when you reach it.
Thanks in advance, Colin

Re: CYCLONE ALFRED

Thanks Jimbo. Its virtually unheard of for a cyclone of this force to hit this far south and threaten such a huge population (Brisbane and the Gold Coast). Its surreal to see the army on the streets, store shelves stripped bare and virtually everything in lockdown now - as we just sit here and wait ...
