Pick 5 courses - My Birthday present WhooHoo!! // Roundtable 1  |   Order by default Post by tscorpio // Oct 30, 2007, 4:56pm tscorpio Total Posts: 84 For my birthday I'm getting myself the "Pick 5 Courses" for $99 and was looking for some advice. I have TS 7.11 with Lightworks and have decided one 3 so far: 1 - Intro Into Scription 2 - Procedural Animation 3 - Designing with Nurbs Now I'm trying to decide between: -HDRI -Multipass rendering -Texture Creation. The others sounded cool too but I don't have the the vray render engine. Has anybody viewed these three? I mean, is there any that really stand out from the rest? I do still images & a lot of photoshop work and can't narrow the 3 remaining into 2. Thanks!

It's about twelve videos and talks about using layers in trueSpace and using PhotoShop. It's the course with the funny looking perfume bottle graphic. Oh and Happy Birthday!:banana::banana: Post by TomG // Oct 31, 2007, 2:48am TomG Total Posts: 3397 Happy birthday! Hmm that is a hard choice, I like all three of those. I would say it depends on two things: 1. What you will end up doing most often (so depends on the kind of image you like to make) 2. What you know least about Multipass and HDRI are two topics that might be new to you, since they are new tS7 and up features, so being new that might put them in front. The texturing course is very good though and is a topic which applies to any version of tS (or any version of any 3D software actually when covering topics such as scanning textures, using digital cameras, etc). My only final piece of advice is to watch the free chapters in each too, see if any of them grab your attention and interest more than the others. Let us know what you pick! Thanks!

You may want to consider "Introduction to 3D for 2D Illustration" or "MultiPass Rendering" also "HDRI" would be worthwhile. psst.....don't wait too long, it ends tomorrow! p.s.The Intro to TS7 is showing the original 7.0 interface and should be updated to 7.51. (and as a Steinie Editorial, should have been supplied FREE to all purchasers of TS 7.5!) It still shows how to shutdown TS 7 the OLD way.
