Hey GGGraphx, You guys should visit this side of the US

Okay kiddies, here it is. Bon Appetite!

The agenda is as follows:

Hello,

Clear your schedule for the San Deigo Lightwave
Users Group at CryWolf Computers at 11:00am on Saturday, October 16th at
7320 Convoy Court, San Diego. Phone number is (858) 277-9653

The theme of this meeting is “Texturing And Gaming”.

The presentations for this meeting will include:


Presenter 1 - Dogwaffle

Philip Staiger will present a killer paint program called Dogwaffle which is
created by Dan Richey. This is a must have addition to Photoshop. If you
missed his presentation at the San Diego Photoshop Users’ group or the Los
Angeles Lightwave Users Group then here is another opportunity to see him
doing a live demo of this killer paint program.

Project Dogwaffle isn't designed to be a feature-for-feature match of any
other graphics software. It does have a lot of terrific features, but the
goal is a program designed for creative individuals who want to get down and
dirty with their pixels. The workflow is based around the idea of making
pictures, and to that end, we designed the interface around the user. Color
mixing is out in the open where you can get to it quickly, not hidden away
in a dialog box, and you have your choice of mixers to suit your needs.
Brushes can be created on the fly. You can pick up a full color image, or
even an animation, and just paint with it. Whenever feasible, our filters
were designed to work full-screen, in realtime. There's no waiting to see
what you get - you just get it. Even our animation system is designed to
work in realtime, so you see what you get without having to build a preview!

Presenter 2 – Gaming Engines and Normal Mapper plugin for LightWave.

Dustin Adaire, an Los Angeles animator will give a two part presentation.
One will be on how to use gaming engines and LightWave 8 to create your very
own gaming environment. The other will be on the use of a killer plugin
called Normal Mapper. Normal Mapper uses a suffisticated bump map that
allows a low resolution polygon objects to appear as a high resolution mesh.

Presenter 3 – Texturing For LightWave using Photoshop.

Stephen Burns, the president of the San Diego Photoshop Users Group will
give a presentation on creating textures in Photoshop to apply as surface
and UV maps in LightWave. Access his website at www.chromeallusion.com .

It must be beautiful in your neck of the woods about now. We just got rain for the first time in 182 days. Thanx for the invite and we would like to welcome you to sunny CA. I recommend January-February. You should be sick of the snow by then.

I would go but I'm only 16 and to fly to CA just for a two day seminar is a bit expensive on my side. Then again the experience would great and i would meet a lot of LW professionals.
