Wow.
I think it's personal.
But yeah, it was fixed, all is well, and Dorkman can relax now.
Of course it had to be other Norwegian answering this.
I'm getting it to work by using hotspot shield. It's slow and full of ads, but at least it works.
Now, before you delete/lock this topic(like you have any sort of moral to do so), hear me out.
Norway, in its almost entirety has problems reaching facebook today. So does parts of Sweden, AFAIK. A norwegian online newspage can confirm this, but I was wondering if there are any more people around the globe with similar problems, and if so, does anyone know anything about it? My ISP (Telenor) owns most other ISP's around the country, and some in our neighbor country Sweden, aknowledges the problem, but can't locate it.
For now, I'm stuck with the seriously trimmed down, albeit working version that is touch.facebook.com
I enjoyed Iron Man 2 a great deal. I never understood the hate for that. But then again I love Spider Man 2.
Yeah, but you forget it's Spider-man 3 that sucks. Spider-man 2 is way better than the first one.
As for Iron Man: Love it. Iron Man 2: Like it a lot.

RLM's Phantom Menace review was genius, and his other stuff was good too. Attack of the Clones was really not as good, so I haven't rush over to watch Revenge of the Sith.
Meanwhile DIF has maintained a solid level of quality week after week—with, I might add, 95% less belching and racial slurs than almost any other commentary group.
*hugs Down in Front*
To be fair, RLM has edited video to go along with his audio, and some weird plot thing going on as well.
1) Linkin Park - A Thousand Suns
2) 30 Seconds to Mars - This is War
3) VersaEmerge - VersaEmerge
4) Daft Punk - Tron Legacy Soundtrack
5) Dead By April - Dead By April

Fuckin' Rivendell Dogs. DO IT!
If you're here vidina, i'm watching season 2 of the X-Files and i just saw this:
You're not suffering from rapid aging, are you?
The most annoying thing about that episode(amongst MANY) is that it isn't even shot some place even REMOTELY similar to Lofoten. And let's not get into the language, names, and the fact that the ship left LEEDS. Look it up 
That...literally-ish kicked ass!
I love how this thread is more popular than TPM 
I really can't say. I mean, I enjoyed parts of it, but in retrospect, I think it just went on for too long. I'd have to watch it again, but I've got things to do.
So I guess that's a 'no', then.
I'm not worthy of answering this one.
Top Five awful performances by great actors
1: Keanu Reeves' intro in Matrix Revolutions.
2: Christian Bale's gravely voice in The Dark Night.
3: Sam Jackson in SW I-III.
4: Daniel Radcliffe in Harry Potter 1.
5: Rupert Grint in Harry Potter 1. (sorry, ran out of entries here)

Suppose you saw this coming 
seriously insanely cool.
Oh it's possible alright. I've spoken to a friend more driven in rendering and such, and although he said it was interesting, he highly discouraged it, due to the insane render times. However, this is a physically correct way of doing it, without cheating, and the light emitted is pretty damn accurate. I think it's a good way of doing things, since you won't have to cheat your way around using light nodes, or pumping up the final gather and self-illumination of the object just to get a hint of color bleed instead of actual light.
Natalie Portman in that outfit alone might be worth it
QFT.
The glow is just a glare (lume) shader set to render output, but I'm sure you can handle the actual color of it in Max as well. I just applied SOMETHING for the sake of the video.
I was up last night trying to figure out of there was a way for 3DS max objects to emit light. I did some searching online, but found next to nothing about the matter, so I tried figuring it out on my own.
Having not really touched the software in years, I naturally had to re-familiarize myself with all the keys, strokes and whatnots, but that's not important.
Now, seeing as I wanted an object to emit light, I thought of no better example to use this on than a lightsaber core.
Needless to say, I pulled it off using Mental Ray(I love you, Zap) and varying shaders. I'm sure Zap knows what I'm talking about here, but let's not get entirely techincal just yet.

Now, if the video(that took an impressive 7 hours+ to render) isn't up to par, quality-wise, what you're missing is probably the faint light of the saber illuminating the surrounding 'man' and ground plane. It's not as bright as it could be, but several test renders were blown out of proportion, and had even longer render times, so in order to trim the amount of time to render out a video example, several compromises were made to intensities, photon samples and GI.
If you're wondering what's up with the glow, it's a simple glare done in Max. I tried applying some glow to it in AE, but as the quality and intensity of the ambient light was as low as it was, I opted out, since it was rendered nigh-invisible.
Some here might also notice I posted this on TF.n aswell, but the point is still there.
Seeing as I pulled this off(Not a HARD task, by any means, really), I was thinking of recording a video tutorial on how to do it, and if there's some interest, I'll get right to it.
What's the use of this? Well, instead of placing omnis all around the core of the saber, excluding this and that to make it emit light, a simple trick will make it do it all by itself, making it self-illuminated, and as for masking/rotoing a shot with this effect goes, all you have to do is isolate the blade, which is basically just one click in AE.
I heart this. True story.
Lycan boot camp.
"As you were, wolves"
There's been like 3 or 4 different "flashes" thus far, as far as the fighting styles go, but the main one is the kung fu one. There have been dances, algorithms and musical lessons in there as well, but only now and then, and the kung fu one with the exact same 'glyphs' keep showing up. I agree with it being annoying, but hey, the show's got Adam Baldwin, Scott Bakula, Linda Hamilton, Arnold Vosloo, Chevy Chase, Steve Austin, Brandon Routh, Timothy Dalton....
...And Yvonne Strahovsky.
Yum.
They are dead, infected nazis.
Dead snow is awesome. Nazi-zombies rule!
