Hey all, didn't really have any place to put this so I just made a new
topic here. I had some computer troubles recently which forced me to
reformat and unfortunatly I couldn't back up everything.
This just means I lost all the models i've done, but didn't upload, I
also lost the originals for all my models and afew random things I was
working on
. My 3ds max 7 is also gone which is good in a sense because I have an excuse to go grab Max 8 instead
.
So i'll be out for awhile till my internet isn't capped and I can
download my Max again. Probably doesn't really matter much because we
don't seem to be pumping out a lot of models at the moment anyway but I
thought it would be best to inform ppl
.

Man that sucks, every model counts. Well, I'll do plenty on my side to make up for it

I'm sorry to hear about that Demon. I had a wipe a while back too (no I still have everything I modded
No need to jump up off your seats like that). I lost everything that
was on my computer, it was disheartening but I figured out a way to
recover it.
It may be useless now but what I did back then was make a partition
drive (take off a bit of my hard drive and create a new one) then from
the partition I accesed my old corrupted drive (turns out there was a
virus) and took back all the necessary and needed things, put them on
CD, then wiped my computer.

Well thats good to hear
.
Thats a good idea flesh
. I've just decided to go and buy an external HD that can have all my
backups on it so this won't be an issue again if it happens
.
Oh and in response to your question about having another go at the
architecture in the other thread, yeah I will be modelling it again.

Good to hear
An external HD sounds good, but I hear they make a damn lotta noise.

Texturing will be a-lot easier and will look better as well as save
time using 3dpaint. FLESH take a loot at your PM box, I can use some
help man

I'm off for the night, maybe one day DA will be on AIM. . . . .

Krisi, I try to look at everything but I have a lot of things to do for
the mod so do not get angry if I don't notice things right away.
