New Year, new look, new content
kat:
A new set of tutorials for Blender; "Blender Basics" covers the interface, how you move around, modeling, materials and UVW mapping the making of a simple chair mesh, guiding those new to the 3D application on it's use; because most of the content on KatsBits is geared towards using Blender to make game and 3D content it's become prudent to have a 'basics' tutorial available so that the core skills required to simply use Blender is covered in it's own material, freeing up other content to focus entirely on their specific subjects, reducing the amount of repeated or duplicated information.
The site's also been updated, including the news system and forums, everything is now being pulled from the new forum, so old news, forums posts and FAQs are now archived. The Elder Scroll: Oblivion game play articles have also been split into sections for easier use; they now comprise of separate articles for gameplay hints and tips, unusual quest and item locations and easter eggs rather than the previous rather long page.
Happy New Year and all that!

well done kat, and I was hoping the new forums would be out of beta testing for the new year :)
kat:
Hehe yes.. it's one of the reasons I've been 'quiet' for the past 2 or 3 months as I've been working on this for some time (the past year in fact, just that latter months more intensively) to get it ready for publishing New Years day. I spend the Christmas/New year writing up the new tutorial, working on a couple of others atm, so there's plenty to come.
ratty redemption:
understood and I've been posting some links to your tutorials in the www.gamevixenzone.com modding forums. hope you don't mind?
kat:
Mind? No, it's a modding site by the looks so they need some learning just as much as everybody else! heh ;D
