[GALLERY] Rob's WIPs

The one holding the sniper has a backwards foot.

I've been trying to get WoL to fix the rigging for months now.

e: it just occurred to me that I'm posting WoL's work in my WIP thread. I never meant to take credit for it- I just needed a place to put a BCE screenshot and didn't want to make a new thread for it. So, official disclaimer:

This is WoL's biped in my map.

It's a pretty slick biped, tho. I wouldn't mind taking credit for it. : )

the rigging doesnt make animations go whack, something else is wrong.

Mind posting renders? From looking at the screens, the biped looks pretty gross imo.

We interrupt this discussion to bring you this stunning news so that I can avoid ranting about WoL again:

I found this program that recursively counts all the comments and whitespace and lines of code in all php files in all subdirectories of a certain starting point. So I ran it on my workspace, where all of my php lives.

Damn, man, I'm screaming along at 1000 lines per week. BTW, that workspace only represents about 2 years of work.

oh god, its ugly. i havent posted renders because the skin is so disgusting. i gotta redo the vast majority of it.

There's an art to writing regular expressions, so I'm putting this in my sutdio thread: I just "finished" the most complicated regular expression I have ever written. It's pretty convoluted, so I'm not 100% sure of its validity, so if anybody knows RegExps really well, I'd appreciate it if you could point out any mistakes I made.

/^(http(s?)\:\/\/)?([a-z0-9_\-]+@)?([a-z0-9_\,\(\)\-]+\.)+[a-z0-9\,\(\)\-]+((\\|\/[a-z0-9_\,\(\)\-]+)+(\.[a-z0-9\-]+)?)?(\?([a-z0-9\+\.\=\&\-]|(%[a-f0-9]{2}))+)?(\#([a-z0-9\+\.\=\&\-]|(%[a-f0-9]{2}))+)?$/i

/^(http(s?)\:\/\/)?([a-z0-9_\-]+@)?([a-z0-9_\,\(\)\-]+\.)+[a-z0-9\,\(\)\-]+((\\|\/[a-z0-9_\,\(\)\-]+)+(\.[a-z0-9\-]+)?)?(\?([a-z0-9\+\.\=\&\-]|(%[a-f0-9]{2}))+)?(\#([a-z0-9\+\.\=\&\-]|(%[a-f0-9]{2}))+)?$/i
/* regexp breakdown:
 * /^(http(s?)\:\/\/)?                         match url beginning with http:// or https:// or one without that
 * ([a-z0-9_\-]+@)?                            match url with user, ie, rob_oplawar@
 * ([a-z0-9_\,\(\)\-]+\.)+                     match one or more domains/subdomains : server.test.spacebrick. (or beginning of ip address: 192.168.1. )
 * [a-z0-9\,\(\)\-]+                           match top level domain: localhost or com/net/org etc. (or end of ip address: 100)
 * ((\\|\/[a-z0-9_\,\(\)\-]+)+                 match one or more folders/files: /folder1/folder2/file
 * (\.[a-z0-9\-]+)?                            match file extension if it exists: .php
 * )?                                          match even if there is no folder/file part of url
 * (\?([a-z0-9\+\.\=\&\-]|(%[a-f0-9]{2}))+)?   match query string
 * (\#([a-z0-9\+\.\=\&\-]|(%[a-f0-9]{2}))+)?   match fragment/anchor
 * $/i                                         match end of url, and match case insensitive.
 */

So, did I leave anything out?

e: it just occurred to me that the way I've written it to match either a series of subdomains or an ip address it could match 192.168.1.com or www.spacebrick.100; I need to rewrite it to match one or the other, but not a combination of the two.

doublepost, on a different topic:

So a couple of weeks ago I sketched up my concept for the APC challenge, and then a week or so ago I colored it in, with the intention of modeling it this week; unfortunately for the contest, I was commissioned on short notice to do something else (which is amazingly awesome and also super-ultra-mega secret) and then got a sinus infection, and never got around to modeling it. It's just as well, because I don't think I would have been happy with it at as low as 7500 polies, as it's the sort of thing that is meant to be absurdly detailed and pretty.

Also, please note that I am an engineer first, a 3D "artist" second, and a 2D "artist" somewhere waaaay down the list, as I'm not too good at it. And I colored it in with a mouse, so it looks like a 1st grader colored it. So sue me.

Anyway, here is my concept, for your viewing pleasure.

Steampunk APC.

Fuck yes.

^this man gets it.
