Eh, the hood.

Posting something here to bring this topic back up.. I'm just highlighting the weird behavior of Zmodeler and the type of 'mental trauma' it gives lol.
The bus I'm making apparently has too many unconnected vertices which is causing rendering issues in game. Since I already merged all different objects as BODY_H, I separated the seats and some part of the interior from the body to use ZM's auto vertex unite tool for removing doubles. And after removing double vertices and uniting seats back into the body object, whenever I select anything in the vertices mode, Zmodeler, don't know why, performs the unite vertices function on its own.

I've to set distance and angle values to zero, to avoid screwing up normals.

P.S: Shouldn't this topic be a sticky?

Best grille ever!

Even better than the original grille!

What Camaro is that? It's a cool grille but how about this?

I think it's the 2015 Camaro

BUGATTIMAN253MPH · Postby **BUGATTIMAN253MPH** » Sun Oct 25, 2015 9:45 pm

No, this is the 2015 Camaro

The one above is definitely a 5th gen model

I'm almost 100% sure it's the 2010 model. Those grilles are aftermarket parts, Chevrolet never made them, but if you search on the Web you'll find a ton of websites selling stuff like that.

I found this guy from FunnyJunk and the link was also posted on 4Chan. He's a cool guy to watch, so why not follow him? He streams games a lot and plays music.

So yesterday Samsung finally released Android 5.0 for my smartphone and for my region. Although it came one year later, better later than never. However, I'm not enjoying that much the new OS, I didn't found any new feature and for some reason the battery is draining way too fast, it used to consume 2/3% during the night, today it spent 15%. The new design, however, is much better in my opinion, but still that battery draining bug really should be fixed.

A final note is that Android should change a bit it's update policy. They should make it able to be updated by all users once a new version is released, instead of making you wait for the phone brand to "customize" it for each phone (read making crappy apps developed by the brand as factory installed). Unless you own an high end device, you'll have to wait ages for it, if you're lucky of course, my old smartphone for example, got stuck with 4.1 forever. This update policy is one of the very few things I dislike about Android.

Or you could, you know, get CyanogenMod? Or something of the sorts. I mean, I also have an Samsung phone, and I've got CyanogenMod 12.1 for a few months now, and it's simply awesome. My battery lasts about 1.5 days if I play games and watch YouTube in it, and 3 days with ocasional use. And I'm now waiting for CyanogenMod 13 (Android 6.0) which sould come out by the end of this month

Oh and the design is much better than TouchWiz XD

@Diatosta: the answer comes way too late but I won't because my phone is still on the warranty and Samsung's warranty terms prevent you to root your device or else it's voided. I've heard of some ways to bypass the system that records if the device was ever rooted, but too risky for me. I might try it when the warranty ends though.

Last Saturday I took the opportunity of an electronics shop having discounts on all of their products to finally buy a gaming mouse. I went for a Mad Catz RAT 3, that looks great imo and stands all my needs. I proceeded to test it and during gameplay I noticed the left button would sometimes in-game either keep pressing or not working, and next day I went to the store to get it replaced, and only in 3-4 days I'll recieve another one.

Problem is, at Monday I had an exam so I haven't much time during the weekend to properly test it, and yesterday I noticed I have connected it to the USB 2.0 instead of the 3.0 like I always do to my mouse. Out of curiosity I tryed it with me regular one and it did exactly the same. Basically the mouse was totally fine and hopefully only tomorrow it'll arrive, and my biggest fear is if meanwhile they sold all of them because there was only 2 left on the main warehouse.
