[QUOTE=Eeshton;37090972]Except that's lying to the company and how is that any better than pirating it[/QUOTE]
they dont actually care, they make all their money off studios who buy tons of licenses.
so because they don't care, it's okay to pirate
However I am actually home educating myself. Anyone else here home educating themselves in the use of 3DS Max?
Well actually you are not lying about being homeschooled.
You are at home trying to learn how 3dsmax works and learning how to model.
So it is homeschooling and you are simply teaching yourself.
And I think the company does care, if not they wouldn't do such a thing.

Jetamo was slightly faster than me.
But you get the point, if you have acces to better equipment why not use it?
because it doesn't matter the tool, it's the product, I thought we've been over this.
and i'm pretty sure the whole student thing is supposed to be for college but okay.
It's similar to how adobe treats piracy.
A student license isn't allowed to be used for commercial purposes. [sp]But I use it myself. Because it's a way better program.[/sp]

Honestly, I am not for software piracy but Autodesk has bought all the competition ( 3Ds, Maya, Softimage) over the years and owns the market of 3D packages.
So it is to wonder what is going to happen to these three softwares? slowly die and merge into a new one? screwing a lot of users and companies, also no competition means less progress, some versions from 2010 to 2013 haven't seen too many changes yet they are charging more for every new version.
I don't think that's very fair to the market nor the users, but there isn't much we can do.
Edit: I didn't really come to a conclusion, so I wouldn't really have much compassion about student non profit "piracy" for a company that does that, they make their money on big studios like Sparkwire said.

I'd give the front tubes a smoother curve. Not rectangular.

A Meat grinder inspired shotgun with a seasoning rack on the other side, designed to be used by Kitchen Warriors, aka soldier with the stainless pot and frying pan. Its supposed to load cocktail sausages for an added effect.

They don't care about pirates because pirates are never customers to begin with
Developers who worry about piracy are wasting their time with people who were never part of their consumer base in the first place.

I don't think that applies here. It makes sense with £40 games, but 3DS Max literally costs over £3000. There is no choice but to torrent the software for many people, but maybe they'll buy it later when they've got the money.
King Harvest has surely come.

This is absolutely awe-inspiring. It gives me the chills. This picture sums up pretty much everything that the Soldier is about, and does so with extreme precision and nuance. I'm.. Wow.

Why thank you.
why does the cleaver use a v_model?
[QUOTE=Fussy!;37092007]Why thank you.[/QUOTE]
Oh fuck, yeah sorry, this guy made the the promo. my bad :(
[QUOTE=ned_ballad;37092112]why does the cleaver use a v_model?[/QUOTE]
Originally it was made as a single c_model replacing the melee scout bat with 3 LODs.
My guess is Valve made the v_model because it only has one LOD(highest detail) and while the world model has 3 LODs, maybe it has something to do with the throwing, it also avoids the issue with the c_model that if you set model detail to the lowest in the graphics settings it will display the lowest LOD by default in first person, which sucks, having a view model with only one LOD solves that.

just seemed weird to me, because of their hard stance against v models for so many years, to the point of ruinging a few items quality (like the Scottish Resistance).
However it seems the mad milk animations rotate the c model around, so maybe it worked out better for those animations

it doesn't work in sfm, even if i just replace the spy
and in gmod it probably wouldn't hurt
