                <description><![CDATA[ Hello everyone,<br /><br />how are you all doing?<br /><br />It's been two years and 10 days since i wrote anything here and almost a year since my last submission.

                <description><![CDATA[ Hi there, <br />
it sure has been a while, hasn't it.<br />
<br />
Man has my life changed in the past months, I miss the typical "student" days.<br />
<br />
First of all, I want to thank you, Sergey ( *<a class="u" href="http://zoomzoom.deviantart.com/">zoomzoom</a> ), for the subscription. I really appreciate your gesture - it makes DA so much better!<br />
<br />
Second, If you are, by any chance, driving your virtual vechicle of choice on the highways of the beautiful O'ahu island and happen to see a nickname 'Yookeekaze' somewhere in your vincinity - that's me (chances are low though, due to the fact that I don't have all that much time to play...)<br />
<br />
What else... work on the bunker scene is proceeding at the 'usual' pace. Expect updates - i'm NOT quiting this project even if I am to submit the last render on my death bed...<br />
<br />
So, how's it going everyone?<br /><br />- Martin<br />

<br />
Hello inhabitants of the great dAsphere*<br />
<br />
As some of you might have noticed i'm not as active around here as I used to be. Whether that is good or bad it's for you to decide but since I have a moment on my hands I decided to update this journal thing here on my homepage.<br />
<br />
DA v5 has been with us since some time now, as always i got used to the new layout etc but there are two things that I miss from the v4. The desktop screenshot presented on the main page and those little nC, xN, yJ message notifications instead of the mysterious n messages format (and yes I know you can still see them when you hover your mouse over it). Not that anybody cares but I just felt like voicing my opinions on that matter. Moving on.<br />
<br />
The primary reason for my lack of activity is that someone decided I was worthy of employment. So... now i'm working during the week and what little time I have left is divided between freelance work, watching anime, enjoying what's left of summer and sleep. I don't expect things to cool down much unless the powers that be decide that a day should have 48 hours instead of 24. I don't comment nearly as much as I used to but I try to look at all work in my devwatch and even say something from time to time so I guess it's not THAT bad, right? RIGHT?!<br />
<br />
I miss working on that latest 3d scene of mine and I hope i'll be able to squeeze some time into it soon.<br />
<br />
From high orbit around the dAsphere<br />
- Your regular lightbulb<br />

4 years. Today, at 20:46 GMT+1 (one hour ago) exactly 4 years have passed since I joined DeviantArt. So...<br />

Some of you may remember that I took part in a contest to design a wallpaper for a polish linux distribution called Aurox. <br />
This was my entry: <a href="http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/27892288/">[link]</a> . <br />

And guess what? I won. Actually I knew the results for about a week now but since the prize came in the mail today i thought I'd share the information.<br />

<sub><strong>Comments:</strong> Most of the sub-plot endings are just TOO perfect for my taste: no matter how f**ked up things get that guy always comes out on top without a scratch (only to be in even worse shit in the next episode). It's fun though and a good way to end a day of work.</sub><br />

Ok. I realise that I havent submited anything 3d since... OMG!... over a month. I just have too many things hanging around my head right now. Projects running in parallel right now include (but are not limited to):<br />
<br />
- designing and building a flash site for a company i'm trying to start<br />
- continue working on my project (ya know, the 3d thing)<br />
- AFF (it's been a month since I did anything for them)<br />
- school: exams (Artificial Intelligence in 6 days)<br />
- school: projects (Java/SQL project I need to finish)<br />
- learning Japanese (i try to do one unit per day but i'm just too damn tired sometimes so i manage about 3-4 per week)<br />
<br />
Add my lazyness, some software and hardware issues I had recently and some family problems and there you have it. Seems like from the half of october i havent really accomplished much but somehow i'm working on something almost everyday. <br />
<br />
PS. I've finished modeling that armor (essentialy my "Max Badass" character) so I'll post a modeling-final version in a day or two.<br />
<br />
See you out there! ]]></description>

From here on that's where all the WIPs are going to be landing as well as other stuff that I wish to share concerning the production process of my animation short (formerly known as Project02), possibly even some short tutorials on a specyfic subject. I'll try to update that site frequently (depending on how much I'll be working per week on that short but my goal is to have at least two updates per week if possible - small thing that may help me a little bit in staying motivated <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/w/wink.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=";)" title=";) (Wink)" /> )<br />
<br />
Why I did this? Because I want to avoid having wips laying around my main DA gallery and nobody watches scraps on DA anyway <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /><br />
<br />
Why "Neverend"? Dig around my gallery and try to find first image for "Project 02"... now look at the submition date... I hope that's clear now <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /> ]]></description>

Since 3 days XSI has been acting up and I can't seem to determine the cause of the problem. First it would not open up at all displaying a nice "Failed to save sequence before system failure." message. I reinstalled it and it helped... for a while. After working a bit on my "Max Badass" model I saved the scene, closed xsi and when I tried to open it up again later - same error as before appears.<br />
<br />
Starting to get irritated. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/steaming.gif" width="15" height="24" alt=":steaming:" title="Steaming Mad!" /><br />
<br />
So I'm thinking maybe some preferences got screwed up so I backup and delete the XSI user folder (the one that holds all the configuration files). No effect - still the same error. Another reinstallation of xsi - wow, it works! I'm happy... for a while. The program loaded without errors but when I tried to open up my scene: WHAM! "Failed to save sequence before system failure."<br />
<br />
Note to self: screaming at the computer does not fix problems. It does however bring some stress relief.<br />
<br />
Right now I have two more things to try: reinstallation of the SPM server (license manager for xsi) and if that doesnt help... next comes the thing i hate most: goddamn windows reinstallation. Just when I had it working since may and set up the way I like... dont you just hate it when that happens?<br />
<br />
Ok... I'm off to see if the SPM reinstall will help... what a beautiful and productive way to spend the weekend<br />
<br />

<br />
<strong>[edit]</strong><br />
<br />
Well what do you know... IT DIDN'T HELP <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/c/crash.gif" width="35" height="30" alt=":crash:" title="Crash" /> <br />
<br />
<img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/p/pissed.gif" width="15" height="20" alt=":pissed:" title="Pissed" /><br />
<br />
So to sum it up:<br />
- user preferences directory deleted: no effect<br />
- xsi uninstaled, program directory deleted, xsi reinstalled: no effect<br />
- license server reinstalled: no effect<br />
- attempt at opening up/saving a different scene (the obvious test): no effect<br />
<br />
<strong>[edit 2]</strong><br />
<br />
Ok... I just wasted my weekend on a bunch of pointless activities (like formating my drive and reinstalling the os) but all of them didn't bring me any closer to finding the cause of my problems. <br />
<br />
I was able to find a temporary workaround though - seems like running and closing xsi setup before starting xsi fixes it... somewhat. I'm able to run the program, work, save and load files without problems until I close it. If I want to run it again I have to do the "setup thing". Takes only a few seconds and it's not that big of a burden but... this thing is going to bug me now. <br />
<br />
I WILL figure it out someday. For now I'm fed up with it and I'll leave it as it is for now - I'm just glad I'm able to work again.<br />
<br />
Thanks for your support and attention <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /> ]]></description>

<strong>What the title is about:</strong><br />
<br />
Yep. Until today (15th September 2005) I've lived approx. 184080 hours, that's 7670 days and 21 years. This also means I've wasted approx. 69797000 liters of air (69797 m^3) in total and 14573000 liters of oxygen (14573 m^3). I won't go into how many kg of shit I 'produced' during that time <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/w/wink.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=";)" title=";) (Wink)" /><br />
<br />
How am I going to celebrate this great day? Probably I'll be working on the Ishtar texture until late evening and then I'll go buy some beer, watch Cowboy Bebop and get wasted in the process <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /> FUN! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /><br />

<sub><strong>Comments:</strong> Shocking, but an interesting experience. Definitely for adults (i'm not kidding, and for those who wonder: no, it's not a "hentai" anime).</sub><br />
<br />

<br />
<strong>A few things:</strong><br />
<br />
- Security Checkpoint scene will not be finished in it's current state - i've decided to start again from scratch (there goes out 6 months of work)<br />
<br />
- I've completed a project for the AFF. It was fun. And I learned a whole damn lot in the process. I hope to do something more for them in the near future.<br />
<br />
<strong>- Till the end of the month I'm on 32kbps connection (yes, 32 kbps, that's a 4KB/s downstream) so I will not be able to comment any of your works till then (67D currently) - i'll watch them when I get my 1mbit back.</strong> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ <strong>Version 1.0 by Martin Binczyk</strong><br />
<br />
<strong>Foreword:</strong><br />
<br />
<em>This guide is entirely based on  information from Guru3D.com forums. I  decided to rewrite it here because It's  easier to find for the DA people. A  special thanks goes to the man that  made it all possible, author of  RivaTuner and SoftFireGL scripts - <strong> Alexey "Unwinder" Nicolaychuk</strong></em><br />
<br />
<br />
<strong>0. Things to remember</strong><br />
<br />
- You'll loose the ability to use a  normal Catalyst control panel, there  are no Direct3D controls in the FGL  panel<br />
<br />
- This will not give you any  perfromance increase in games (it might  even work slower). On the other hand if  you are using professional CAD/CAM  packages then you should see a  significant increase in viewport  rendering speed <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /><br />
<br />
<strong>1. Things you'll need</strong><br />
<br />
- A Radeon GFX card (should work with  9500 and up) working under Windows  2000, XP or 2003<br />
- ATI FireGL <strong>8.062</strong> driver <strong><a href="http://www2.ati.com/drivers/firegl/firegl-unified-xp-w2k-8062.exe">[link]</a></strong><br />
Why this one? Because it's tested and  know to work with Riva Tuner 2.0 RC  15.4.<br />
Later versions<strong> will not work with this  version of SoftFireGL patch script</strong><br />
- RivaTuner 2.0 RC 15.4 <strong><a href="http://downloads.guru3d.com/download.php?det=163">[link]</a></strong><br />
- WinRAR (for unpacking the driver) <a href="http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm"> [link]</a><br />
<br />
<strong>2. Modifying the drivers.</strong><br />
<br />
Once you have the driver downloaded,  unpack it somwhere (rightclick and  select Extract Files...)<br />
<br />
Install RivaTuner<br />
<br />
Go to <directory where you installed  RivaTuner> \PatchScripts\ATI\SoftFireGL\Unified\  and run the <strong>SoftFireGL w2k.rts</strong> script.<br />
- Select the FireGL card you want to  mod the driver for (It has to be a  workstation equivalent of your  radeon!):<br />
<br />
Radeon 9500 = FireGL Z1<br />
Radeon 9600 = FireGL T2<br />
Radeon 9700 = FireGL X1<br />
Radeon 9800 = FireGL X2<br />
Radeon 9800SE = FireGL X2 (4-pipeline  mode)<br />
Radeon X800 = FireGL X3<br />
<br />
and click Continue. <br />
<br />
- The script will prompt you for a  location of ati2mtag.sys file, change  the file type to ati2mtag.sy_ and  browse to <location of your unpacked  drivers> \Driver\2KXP_INF\B_18414\ati2mtag.sy_  (select the file and click Open). <br />
<br />
A window will appear waring you that  the file is not certified to work with  this script, click OK and after a while  you should see another window that says  "Patch script has been successfully  executed. Read log for details." (<strong>if  there is something else here then the  patch has failed and there is a VERY  good chance that the mod will not work</strong> ).<br />
<br />
Now you need to manually modify the  drivers .ini files with your cards  device ID.<br />
<br />
First you need to know what your cards  PCI deviceID is. Launch RivaTuner, in  the Main tab you should see a line like  this: <br />
<br />
"256-bit R350 (8x1) with 128MB DDR  memory     Customize..."<br />
(of course yours will be most likely  different).<br />
<br />
Click on the little button next to  "Customize..." and select "Graphics  subsystem diagnostic report" (4th icon  from the right). Scroll down till you  see "Display adapter information" and  right under that there should be a line <strong> Device ID : xxxx</strong>. Copy that number  (where xxxx are) or write it down  somewhere.<br />
<br />
Go to <location of your unpacked drivers> \Driver\2KXP_INF\ and open in Notepad:<br />
->C2_18678.inf if you are on Windows  2000<br />
->CX_18678.inf if you are on Windows  XP/2003<br />
<br />
You can modify both if you want.<br />
<br />
Inside those files you should see a  section [ATI.Mfg.NTx86] with adapters  listed. Once again, <strong>remember for which  card you are moding your drivers</strong> (in my  case it was R9800 -> FireGL X2 mod) and  modify ONLY the appropriate lines. <br />
<br />
Find the firegl that you want to mod  your radeon into and modify it's Device  ID with your cards Device ID<br />
In my case this was:<br />
<br />
Original file:<br />
(....)<br />
"ATI FireGL X2 AGP Pro" =  ati2mtag_R350GL, PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_<strong>4E4B</strong><br />
"ATI FireGL X2 AGP Pro Secondary" =  ati2mtag_R350GL, PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_<strong>4E6B</strong><br />
(....)<br />
<br />
Moded file :<br />
(....)<br />
"ATI FireGL X2 AGP Pro" =  ati2mtag_R350GL, PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_<strong>4E48</strong><br />
"ATI FireGL X2 AGP Pro Secondary" =  ati2mtag_R350GL, PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_<strong>4E68</strong><br />
(....)<br />
<br />
<strong>Save the file</strong><br />
<br />
<strong>3. Installing modified drivers</strong><br />
<br />
Do not use the in... ]]></description>

Hi! Pretty hectic time for me right now  - lots of exams and school related work  but still I managed to finish the AI  Core scene as promissed. Right now I'm  in the process of planning my next  scene to model - the Security  Checkpoint (the one you have to go  through when entering the station from  the dock). I even made a simple sketch  of the room just to know the primary  elements I have to model (usualy I just  do whatever is in my head but I finally  realized that I WILL need some kind of  plan to finish this right). On the  positive side of things my AI Core got  two comments in the Finished Work>3D  section of CGTalk.com gallery  (see for  yourself: <a href="http://cgtalk.com/showthread.php?t=200616">[link]</a> ). It may sound  pathetic BUT last time I submitted my  work there I got nothing so yeah...  someone noticed it this time and I'm  happy with that.<br />

Hello people! It's been a while (19  days) since my last entry - all is  relative of course and someone might  say that it's only a short break from  my stupid journal entry. Anyway.  Christmas time is over (what a relief -  there is only so much of green, red and  gold I can take per year) and now it's  time for the new years party!!!!  Yeah... well for some people at least -  i'll be 'partying' on my beloved chair  in front of my beloved computer (not  that I have anything against sitting in  front of my comp - that's my favorite  activity). <strong>Wherever you'll be on that  night I hope that you have a great time  and I want to wish you a happy new  year!!!</strong><br />
<br />
What else? I got myself a new monitor  yesterday. Yay. A jump from 15" classic  crt to a 19" diamondtron was quite a  shock to me. Finally I can see what i'm  working at a little better. You can see  what my workspace looks like now here <a href="http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/13600658/"> [link]</a> .<br />

So... it has been a while since my last  entry - not much happening in my life  so I guess that's normal. A while ago  I've stumbled across some concept art  from a film that Blur studio ( <a href="http://www.blur.com">[link]</a> )  was working on - Mindbridge. Some of  those concepts can be seen on Feng  Zhu's web page but there is nothing  about the film itself on Blurs site -  what's up with that? That would be one  awesome SF movie but even using google  i can't find anything concrete about  the project current status. Maybe you  know something about that? Was it  aborted or what? That would be really  bad IMO because these days you don't  see so many good sci-fi movies being  released... and by "good sci-fi" I mean  something in the lines of Aliens (no  remakes & sequels please!!! have mercy  on one of the greatest sci-fi sagas -  they already tried to waste it with  Alien: Resurrection but apperently it  managed to stand it's ground), Final  Fantasy:TSW and generaly films that go  further in the future than 20-50 years  or something like that. <br />
<br />
BTW: have you heard about the new Doom  movie? I don't know what to think  anymore... a Doom movie that's not on  Mars, there are no creatures from hell  in it and instead of space marines you  get some SWAT team?... oh and the whole  movie is apparently about some virus  (wow... how original - the 2 Resident  Evil movies weren't enough it appears).  What were they thinking? Why is it even  called Doom? I understand that Doom3  has... well... "not so complex" plot  but come on! You have a base on mars,  some scientists, teleports and monsters  from hell - there are at LEAST a couple  of things you can do with that  indegrients to make an interesting  sci-fi flick.<br />

Hi everyone! Last week I finally got my  Half Life 2 copy and... well... it's  THE best fpp game i've played to this  date - perfection is the right word.  Too bad i've finished it and now I have  to wait for Half Life 3 (yes, another  open ending). Apart from that I found  some strenght to run Photoshop and  finish the v2 textures for the Dock.  I'll post an update in the next few  days (I hope... oh the laziness).<br />

She's a great digital painer and  creature designer. A must see for  someone who likes fantasy books. I'm  glad I found my way to her page on DA  because she's a great artist that  deserves more recognition then she gets  (with works of so high quality only  ~600 pageviews during her 2+ years on  deviant art). So what are YOU, dear  reader of my journal, waiting for???  Click the damn icon!<br />

Hi everyone! Right now i'm waiting for  my preordered copy of Half Life 2 to  arrive. I got an email from the online  store today which said they run out of  copies and will have to get more before  they can send me mine. They promised to  do their best to send all preordered  copies by the end of the week but... I  don't know... guess I'll have to wait  and see what happens. Funny thing is  that someone who pre-ordered will get  the game much later actually than  someone who just went to some shop on  the release date. Well at least after  reading some user opinions about the  game (the lucky bastards who have it  already <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/w/wink.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=";)" title=";) (Wink)" /> ) I know that the game is  worth waiting another few days for (not  a common thing for games these days).  Besides waiting for Half Life 2 I was  able to do one more thing: install OSX  on my pc using a great PPC emulator  called PearPC. Not much to work with  since it runs about 20 times slower  than it should (take your CPU speed,  divide by 20 - that's how 'fast' it  runs), but i'm glad that things are  heading in the right direction. Oh and  i'm trying out some html formatting in  the journal... if it looks good when  submitted i'm gonna use that style for  my next journals too.<br />

Check out his mech designs - they are  simply insane!!!

His 3d gallery is one of the best i've  seen so far. Great attention to  details, beautiful textures and  fantastic lighting. Check him out -  he's page is REALLY worth visiting.<br />
<br />
PS. I have some problems with  refreshing on my homepage. The last  work i've submited (H126 Dock B v2)  isn't showing (though it's visible in  my gallery). Can you see it? I hope  it's just some stupid web cache issue. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Well you are probably wondering what  "TPSA" means - it's a telecom company  in Poland (where I live). The same one  that SHOULD'VE setup my ADSL connection  by now... but guess what? They called  me today and said: "We're sorry but you  won't have your connection until the  end of October. Not that we care, but  you keep calling every day so we  figured this might shut you up."<br />
<br />
DAMN!!!!<br />
<br />
Sorry everyone <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":(" title=":( (Sad)" /> I really wish that i  could comment your stuff and reply to  your comments...<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ So... why am I not posting anything  new? The truth is I still haven't  finished texturing the UD-17L yet...  well it's almost finished but I just  couldn't find enough free time to  complete it. <br />
<br />
What's the topic about? THE SWITCH  ofcourse. "WTF?!!" some might think...  well... I figured one day that maya  runs a lot better under linux  (interface wise) so I've decided to get  rid of the good-old-and-comfortable XP  and install Fedora Core 2. Reasons?<br />
<br />
- maya runs better (under windows my  marking menus in maya 6 slow down after  the scene gets complicated)<br />
- i can install FireGL drivers on my  old R8500 (that's a BIG plus, can't do  that under windows)<br />
- new versions of shake are available  (I found out how great app it is thanks  to zoomzoom)<br />
- linux has better memory management  (or so they say, but with 1GB windows  still uses swap even if it has ~750MB  of phisical mem free - what the hell is  up with that shit???!!!)<br />
- always good to learn something new<br />
- check out this <a href="http://www.aqua-soft.org/board/index.php?showtopic=6446">[link]</a> sweet gnome mod  - how can you NOT like it?<br />
<br />
This is my second attempt at switching  to linux. I hope this one goes  better... I'm going to install W2k on a  5GB partition for purposes of...  scanning and printing - damn Lexmark  didn't bothered to write Linux drivers  for the P3120 all-in-one.<br />
<br />
Here I go wish me luck. I'm trying to  prove Linux is a good system for a  graphics workstation here <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ It's called MJ Poly Tools and it's  available for free from <a href="http://www.maya3d.dk/Scripts/MJPolyTools/">[link]</a> . It's a  small script which gives you some very  handy tools for polygon modeling. Give  it a try - you'll like it <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /><br />
<br />
A nice quote: "If you think of blender  as mono, and 3dsmax as stereo,<br />
then Maya is Dolby Pro-Logic 4 Surround  Sound with Bass Boost 3D Speaker  System, Place Independent Sound  Tracking and Positioning Quadro  Navigation Device, including  Spectroscopic, semi-Holographic  Visualisation of Digital Sound Vibrance  and True Sound Resampling, easy to use  Ultrascopic Positioning Environmental  Symulation"<br />

Quite new face on DevArt so there's a  good chance you didn't know about his  existence. In his gallery you'll find a  little bit of everything: from  photography and drawings to 3d and all  his works have one in common - they  happen to be just awesome <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /> I especially  like his 3d starship models! Pay him a  visit - you won't regret it!<br />

Now I'm texturing the Hammer... tt's  going pretty well considering my  texturing abilities <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/w/wink.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=";)" title=";) (Wink)" /> When I finish hull  texturing I'll post an update.<br />

Check out he's abstract gallery <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /> He  does some awesome stuff (I like how he  ueses fonts in some his works). Great  stuff.<br />
<br />

<br />
PS. Removed the Hall of Fame - too many  icons make the page load very long on  slower connections and I don't want to  put a selective one <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":(" title=":( (Sad)" /> I watch a lot of  people and I consider them to be equaly  important to me (for various reasons).<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ ***NEWS***<br />
<br />
Exams are comming. And they are comming  fast so I don't know when I'll be able  to post an update on my UD17L model.  Don't worry though - there will be one  for sure <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/w/wink.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=";)" title=";) (Wink)" /> As for other things there's  an awesome album I've discovered by  Dallas Superstars that's called Flash.  I highly recommend (if you're into  trance/electronic/club music) that you  check out the Helium video that can be  downloaded from their site <a href="http://www.dallassuperstars.com">[link]</a> . I  know the album is not something new but  I've just found out about it <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /><br />
<br />
***MLDAD aka My Latest Deviant Art  Discovery***<br />
<br />
In this section of my journal I'll  feature artists that I've found out  about during my journeys thru devart.  This time it's:<br />

Perfection is the right word  here. Visiting him is highly  recommended. I guarantee you won't  regret it <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /><br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Hi there!<br />
<br />
Anyone seeking good S-F interior/object  design examples? I recommend that you  take a look at the Aliens: Colonial  Marines comic series. Pretty sweet  drawings there with objects like space  stations (H126 was inspired by one of  the designs in that comic), ships,  vechicles, weapons and also very good  interior examples (dark corridors,  sci-fi enviroment elements like  airlocks, monitors, computer consoles  and other tech equipment). A lot of  good ideas that may inspire you, not to  mention that the comic is a fantastic  read to all who love the Alien(s)  series <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /><br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Hi!<br />
<br />
Yep, today is a great day. Here I am  sitting on that boring programming  class, as usual reading CgTalk and...  WHOOP! There I see it: Alias announced  Maya 6! <br />
<br />
From what I've learned today there are  quite a few nice features added! Many  people are complaining for the lack of  some spectacular things, but I still  think it's a good upgrade. For a start:  MR supports the shader glow node now  and many other features like particle  motion blur! Man, I waited forever for  this shit! There's a new trax editor,  an integrated web browser and (as i've  heard on cg talk) some improvement to  shading network management (maybe  folders in hypershade???!!! - that  would be SW33T ^^), a new bevel,  automatic image sequence handling, a  couple of times faster subdivs, overall  speed improvments and lots of others!!!<br />
<br />
Seems that Alias decided mainly to  improve existing functions other than  introducing new ones. That's good IMO.<br />
<br />
Oh! And one more thing: XSI 4 is out  too! Busy day today, eh?<br />
<br />
That's about it from me today!<br />
<br />
See you outthere! ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Hi!, to anyone actualy reading this<br />
<br />
Yup, it's finally time for a short  break and that means no algebra,  electro-technology (I really don't know  how these subjects are named in english  so this is pretty a straight 'brute  force' translation) or programming  classes 'til 16.04.2004. Hooray!... or  something like that. <br />
<br />
Anyway I finally found the strenght  within me to start working on my  project (still named Project 02) and as  you can see some progress has been  made. I can't really tell how long the  final animation will be or give you any  outline on the story for two reasons:  the project is still in my head under  the 'under construction' category so  the final shape is still an unknown  even to me and I wouldn't want to spoil  anything. IF the project will be  completed - you'll find out for  yourself, if not... well... let's just  say that right now that's not an option  ^^' . That's it for now.<br />
<br />
As for the DevArt related stuff: the  biggest change is that I've decided to  regularly comment submissions under the  3-Dimensional Art category. Why? I  think people like getting comments on  their work, so the question would  really be 'why not?'. And this is what  DA is made for after all - to show the  world your stuff and find out what  others think about it. Why only 3dArt?  Well since there are so many  submissions daily that's all that I can  manage plus, I know a thing or two  about 3D and maybe sometimes I can give  a little advice (I hardly can imagine  myself doing that under any other  category).<br />
Another thing is that I joined the  3D-Club <a href="http://3d-club.deviantart.com">[link]</a> . Seems like a really  nice community out there ^^<br />
<br />
Latest thing for me? I've discovered an  awesome album by Aphex Twin. It's  called "Selected Ambient Works Vol. 2"  and I think It's great. I can listen to  it all day without getting bored and/or  disturbed from my work (8h minimum for  Maya daily since it's easter break ^^).<br />
<br />
Thanks to whoever took time and read  this ^^<br />
<br />
PS. Why the hell do I use the "^^" ?  Because emoticons ruin the perfect,  clean look of that entry ^^<br />
<br />
See you outthere! ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ ... well not exactly aborted, it's just  that i realized that my ideas drifted  too far from the original concept for  this to be called "shuttle project". I  don't have a new name for it yet, so  for now it'll just be "Project 2". ]]></description>

Hello.<br>
<br>
I'm going away for the next two months so I won't be able to submit nor  comment anything during that time. <br>
<br>
I don't exactly know when I will be back, but I hope sometime around  September.<br>
<br>
Till then: C YA and keep the DA spirit alive!<br>

Yo people (is someone actualy reading this shit?).<br>
<br>
I've been busy lately with learning to "matura" (polish folks will know  what this crap is <img src="http://images.deviantart.com/emoticons/icon_wink.gif" align="middle" alt=";) (Wink)" title=";) (Wink)" border="0" />  for the rest of you: it's a exam you have to pass  at the end of high school) exams. <br>
<br>
But don't let that fool you - i'm still working on my animation  project. In fact scene 03 is almost ready, but i've decided not to post  it here because i want to wait 'till i have more to show you (possibly  the whole animation, but i don't think i can hold on for this long  without showing you something in the meantime).<br>
<br>
Anyway, i'm just posting to let people who visit my homepage regullarly  (ARE THERE ANY?) that i'm not dead or anything - just a little to much  goin' on in my life now.<br>
<br>
C YA<br>

So what am i doin' now? <br>
<br>
I guess looking at my ctx monitor and thinkin what to write <img src="http://images.deviantart.com/emoticons/icon_smile.gif" align="middle" alt=":) (Smile)" title=":) (Smile)" border="0" /> <br>
<br>
All right... i've been a little lazy lately but this weekend i'm  planing on playing with my beloved Maya 4.5 Unlimited. I don't have any  specyfic idea what i'm gonna make, but who know what may bump into my  brain.<br>
<br>
I've spent the last weekend mostly on downloading Lovehina manga scans  with edonkey (man! 400MB - 1 week of downloading - 24h/day!!!). I'm so  fucked up that when i start somethin' i just gotta finish it - so since  i have all the manga volumes why not downloading some episodes? I guess  this will take about 2-3 weeks with Kazaa and eMule. Next objective  after that? The OST ofcourse and then burn all the stuff to cd's and  forget about it eventually. Man I'm SOOO fucked up at times.<br>
<br>
From the computer related stuff that's all i think :/<br>

Damn! It's a tough job - it has to  defend itself form 50 people wanting to  play their music on one winamp at the  same time <img src="http://images.deviantart.com/emoticons/icon_wink.gif" align="middle" alt=";) (Wink)" title=";) (Wink)" border="0" />  - at least for 12 hours.

                <description><![CDATA[ Wow! Just finished reading Severed  Connections. It's a scenario for a Deus  Ex mod that combines the story of 2  wonderful games: System Shock and Deus  Ex. The mod is not out yet  (unfortunately) but the work has  already began and IMO it should be  completed in the next few months.<br>
<br>
Looking forward to it!!!<br>
<br>
It was a good week for me, but i had to  get rid of my precious mouse (old  Logitech Pilot PS/2). The poor thing  has given up the ghost <img src="http://images.deviantart.com/emoticons/icon_frown.gif" align="middle" alt=":( (Sad)" title=":( (Sad)" border="0" />  . I had to buy  a new one... With my short funds I  could not buy optical logitech so i  bought a4tech (optical). Works fine -  but for how long? ]]></description>
