I'm Looking for a Setting
I'll just post a picture showing the setting I'm looking for.
So this is with a regular opacity brush. As you can see, if I lift my pen and overlap an area I alread colored over, it adds a new layer of color.
I'm looking for a setting that wouldn't add this new layer of color ontop of what I've already laid down, but instead read the pressure sensitivity.
I don't know if that makes sense.

To do this you need to change the brush settings (Window > Brush, then go into "Transfer" or I think it's called "Other Dynamics" in CS4 and earlier) and set the "Opacity" setting to "Off" (it can't be "Pen Pressure" or you'll get the overlay effect). Have the "Flow" setting to "Pen Pressure" instead.
Also, try turning off "Shape Dynamics" and setting the spacing to something like 9%.
When you're painting, leave the opacity at 100%. You can play with the flow setting, start it at 100%, some like to change it down to 30 - 70% as they paint depending on how soft or thick they want to lay down their colors/values, it's up to you, just play around with it and see what you like.
Apply these settings to a hard round brush to get the control I think you are looking for.

I appreciate the information and will put it to good use, but I really like using the opacity brush and am still searching for a way to make it so there's no overlapping.

There is no way, this is how photoshop works. :|
Maybe you want to bring more details to your needs?

Problems with Gainward GeforceFX5900XT
I recently bought a Gainward GeforceFX 5900XT on the basis of several favourable reviews. But after fitting it into my computer i have had several graphical problems in games. I explained this to the Gainward tech support people but their only advice was to upgrade the bios (no luck with that) and they aren't replying to my response.
What happens is, while playing some games (UT2004 especially, and Joint Ops:Typhoon Rising on the highest settings) certain items in the world seems to randomly flicker on and off, disapearing and reapearing. When i walk into these 'ínvisible' objects the collision still works suggesting its a graphics card issue. I have the latest nvidia drivers and bios version.
Also, some applications, notably T2 (http://www.toymaker.info/html/texgen.html) when run, just display a blue box, nothing is drawn inside the applications window.
Is my hardware faulty? or is this a common issue?
Id be grateful for any help :)
Re: Problems with Gainward GeforceFX5900XT
system specs?
what drivers are you using?
what resolution do you play in?
Re: Problems with Gainward GeforceFX5900XT
Athlon XP 3000+
512mg PC2100 mem
Aopen nForce 2 400FSB mobo
Screen res doesnt make any difference, flickering occours in any screen res, at any detail level (except in Joint ops, when it seems only to occour at the highest detail levels, it also seems to take an exception to anisotropic filtering)
But i normally play at 1024x768
drivers are the very latest nvidia ones, downloaded today :)
184.108.40.206 was the package
This is the 128mg GeforceFX 5900XT
Re: Problems with Gainward GeforceFX5900XT
some basic things to try first...
1) Try different refresh rates
2) Check your computer temps, heat can cause a few issues.
3) In your BIOS, try different AGP aperture settings. Most seem to agree on the "128" setting.
4) Also in the BIOS, try disabling Fast Writes.
5) Try a complete uninstall/reinstall of the drivers. Theres a few threads on how to do a complete uninstall of previous drivers without a reformat. I would recommend this especially after changing from ATI to Nvidia or vice versa.
6) Have you tried any different driver revisions? http://www.guru3d.com/ has plenty of the newer beta drivers.
Personally I use the 61.77s myself and have no visual troubles, but I reformatted as my last card was an ATI 9800XT.
Re: Problems with Gainward GeforceFX5900XT
Ok, ill run through the list and see if i can get any results
thanks for the suggestions :)
Re: Problems with Gainward GeforceFX5900XT
No joy with UT2004, although increasing the apeture size from 64mg to 128mg seemed to fix all the probs with joint ops, and made a significant performance boost to all other games :)
Heat isnt really a problem, with a Thermaltake case. But the first time I put it in, it's temperature got really high and then cooled down on the second boot, could this have damaged it?
Re: Problems with Gainward GeforceFX5900XT
I dont think your hardware is messed up being that it seems like now everything is running fine except for some UT2004 visuals. Glad the Joint Ops is fixed.
At this point you can try newer driver revisions even if they are beta. Nvidia's track record for HQ beta drivers speaks for itself. Theres a few threads on various beta drivers here and some are preferred over others. Try one or two and see if the problem clears up in UT2004.
Hope it helps.

Pablo Martinez of Visalia is making a name for himself in the world of competitive eating.
He has twice been a contestant in the famous Nathan's Hot Dog eating contest at Coney Island, N.Y.
His next gutbuster will be the Hooters World-Wide Wing Eating Championship at the Hard Rock Cafe in Las Vegas.
That July 22 event offers thousands of dollars in prize money and is by invitation only to pros like Martinez, who is ranked No. 17 in the world by Major League Eating.
"People like playing golf — I like competitive eating," he said.
Martinez, 28, graduated from Redwood High School in 2003.
He is married with two children, went to college at Fresno State and is a licensed marriage and family therapist.
He got his start a few years ago by participating in a "food challenge" at Batter Up Pancakes in Fresno: eat a pancake the size of a pizza, a 12-egg omelette and a pound of potatoes in 45 minutes, and it's on the house.
"I did it within 36 minutes," he said.
To his surprise, the feat gained traction on social media. "Other competitive eaters started complimenting me," he said.
He joined the competition scene in Southern California and gained a regional reputation.
"It's a unique skill," he said. "Less than a half percent of the population has this skill."
A turning point was his showing in the qualifying event for Nathan's Hot Dog eating contest in St. Paul, Minn.
"I ended up taking first place with 29 hot dogs and buns in 10 minutes," he said. "With that, you get a spot at the final in Coney Island."
At Coney Island, he downed 271/2 hot dogs last year for 10th place, and 17 this year for 12th place.
"The weather was bad, it affects the numbers," he said.
Martinez weighed 155 pounds when he started and now is 195 pounds, yet boasts a body fat percentage of only 13%. He works out almost daily at Evolutions gym in Tulare.
"You have to stay lean," he said.
LONDON: The Library for London project is making progress, with Dinuba Unified donating a portable classroom, and a site has been selected.
Robert Isquierdo, who grew up in the Tulare County community of 2,134, has made it a personal mission to open a library in his old hometown. He has collected 15,000 books.
Meanwhile, to raise the profile of London, he is organizing a 5K run there on July 27.
"This will be the biggest thing London has ever seen," he said. "We want the outside community to witness firsthand our beautiful community."
Fernando Cabada of Fresno — a marathoner and former Buchanan High athlete — will be the celebrity runner.
About 200 runners have signed up so far. There will be an adult 5K, child 5K and child 1K.
Information: www.libraryforlondon.com or (818) 482-8140.
RUIZ FOODS: Assembly Member Connie Conway of Tulare visited Ruiz Foods of Dinuba last week to deliver an Assembly resolution honoring the company for 50 years in business.
The company employs 2,500 and makes frozen Mexican food.
She also delivered a second resolution for Fred Ruiz, co-founder and chairman emeritus, honoring him for his community involvement and achievements.
In 1991, Ruiz and Ruiz Foods founded the Ruiz 4 Kids nonprofit group that has awarded more than $2 million in college scholarships.

WalkLogger stays on in the background and automatically determines when you are walking. To use it, simply turn your screen off and put the phone in your pocket, in a belt clip, or in a purse or bag. The more firmly attached the phone is to you the better it works.
Medical research has shown that to stay healthy and prevent heart disease and diabetes it is crucial to stand up and walk several times throughout the day. People who spend lots of time standing up and moving around, for example by taking taking quite short walks throughout the day, indoors or outdoors, are healthier and live longer. Several studies have shown that you can reduce your risk of developing heart disease and type 2 diabetes by staying active.
WalkLogger lets you:
-Count your steps
-Estimate your distance walked or run
-Estimate the calories you burn by being active (net calories)
-Estimate your total calorie consumption (gross calories)
-Get activity logs with detailed information about individual walks and runs
-Set step, distance and calorie goals
-Earn medals based on the number of steps you walk each day
-Use the pedometer from your home screen with the built in widget

WalkLogger is a pedometer that does not record or log your location. Your exercise data and any other personal information that you store in the app will not be shared with anyone unless you explicitly choose to share it. Your email address will not be shared with third parties.
WalkLogger uses your phone's accelerometer to measure your activity. Unfortunately, some phones turn off their accelerometer when the screen turns off which makes it impossible to run a pedometer on those phones without draining the battery. WalkLogger will not work properly on those phones.

Final Score: Phoenix 4, Edmonton 3 (SO)
Phoenix, AZ (Sports Network) - Ladislav Nagy scored the game-winning goal in the shootout to lift the Phoenix Coyotes over the Edmonton Oilers, 4-3, at Glendale Arena.
Mike Comrie, Mike Johnson and Oleg Saprykin each netted a goal and Curtis Joseph made 24 saves for the Coyotes, who have won two straight and four of their last five contests.
"We have a good goalie and good shooters obviously," Johnson said. "It's unfortunate when they are a rival like these guys that we even let them get the one point. It would have been better to get the two (points) in regulation. It's nice to battle back after we gave up the lead and get that winning feeling after the game. It's a good win for us."
Jason Smith tallied a goal and an assist and Ryan Smyth and Georges Laraque scored a goal apiece for Edmonton, which has lost four of its last five games. Jussi Markkanen stopped 26 of 29 shots.
"We have to play a full 60 minutes," Smyth said. "Once we got the lead that late in the game, you have to do the smart things. I will take the blame on that one -- I did not get it deep, turned it over and it was in the net. Those are the things that make a difference in hockey games."
After a scoreless overtime session, Michael Peca took the first shot in the shootout for the Oilers but Joseph made a blocker save. Markkanen followed with a glove save on Comrie before Smyth beat Joseph stick side with a wrister to give Edmonton the advantage.
Geoff Sanderson responded by beating Markkanen top shelf with a forehand to tie it up. After Ales Hemsky shot wide, Nagy beat Markkanen stick side with a wrist shot to seal the win for Phoenix.
Tied 2-2 with 9:04 remaining in the contest, Smith beat Joseph high to the stick side with a slap shot from the top of the right circle while both teams were skating 4-on-4 to give the Oilers their first lead of the game at 3-2.
Phoenix netted the equalizer with 3:41 left in regulation after Saprykin gathered a loose puck on the doorstep, did a little spin-o-rama and banged it into the net to make it a 3-3 game.
Phoenix drew first blood 13:17 into the first period after Comrie, who was camped at the post, one-timed a pass from behind the net past Markkanen for a 1-0 lead.
Edmonton tied the game just over two minutes later after Smyth rifled a slap shot from just over the blue line that went over Joseph's right shoulder to make it 1-1.
The Coyotes regained the lead with 47.3 seconds left in the second period after Johnson redirected a shot past Markkanen from down low to make it 2-1. Fredrik Sjostrom unleashed a shot from along the right half-wall that connected with Johnson at the side of the net.
The Oilers retied the game 5:44 into the third period after Laraque got credit for his first tally of the year. Newly acquired defenseman Dennis Seidenberg controlled a rebound down low and attempted to pass the puck to Joseph for a freeze but instead knocked the puck into his own net to make it 2-2.
Game Notes
Despite falling in the shootout, Edmonton, which earned a point in the standings, extended its road point streak against the Coyotes to seven games...The Oilers are 3-0-3 with one tie in their last seven contests at Phoenix, and 8-1-4 with one tie in the last 14 games overall against the Coyotes... Edmonton lost on the road for the first time in the series since March 24, 2001, a 7-4 defeat...The Oilers fell to 8-1-4 in their last 13 games away from Rexall Place...Phoenix right wing Shane Doan had his three-game point streak halted...Phoenix retired former Winnipeg Jet Thomas Steen's No. 25 prior to the game.

I think with my heart and move with my head.-Kongos
Ubitus needs to actually work, and we need to know how much it's going to cost. Innovative cloud services aren't going to be free. The other thing is that Ubitus will require your television to work. Something like the Shield has the same advantage that the weird Wii U controller has - it doesn't require the television. Which I guess is the whole appeal of having a mobile gaming device. It's not taking up the television that everyone in the house wants to use. Plus, you can play games you already own. You don't have to rent them. You can continue that Fallout:New Vegas session from yesterday. I don't know how many people really want to do that...there may only be one person for all I know, but it is a difference in functionality. Plus, it can still stream stuff from Cloud services, if that kind of thing takes off.
The price is the key thing though. I don't see anyone buying a Shield for $300. I think even $250 is high, not because of the hardware but because of the market. But at $250 they could sell them, and if they convince some developers to make games that they sell through the Nvidia market (they have their own mobile market), they could probably get these things out the door. At $200 I think it's a no brainer.
Competing with Fiona is easy. Those things are going to cost a mint. They really will be for people with more money than they know what to do with. I'm sure they'll perform great, and they'll be a real tablet PC, but they are going to be expensive. If someone has the kind of money the Fiona is going to cost, they aren't going to bother looking at cheaper stuff anyway.
I can not remember winning or losing a single debate on the internet.

You really need to start getting out to the expo's and conventions. Theres a lot coming that really blows the old way of thinking out of the water. Theres a few tech bubbles poping this year and next in many different fields that are going to cause leaps in tech and the way we use it. Won't be the first time it's happened. These leaps are going to be a little intense though because they are happening in a number of fields.
After these leaps thers going to be another in 2015/16 due to some advances in the way energy is delivered to portable devices.
Right now there are devices that can send power to devices wirelessly. They've actually come a long way and are almost ready to be sold commercially. Right now it's still mainly in the hand of DIY enthusiasts, but companies are gearing up to mass produce. When that happens another tech bubble is going to pop and things are going to change fairly drastically again.

Ubitus teaming up with google is far from the only streaming service being worked on. I mean right now, right this very moment you can stream to a tablet and play PC games and MMO's while using a 360 controller, Wii remote or PS3 controller or any number of different bluetooth controllers. You can use your phone as a controller for your tablet. There are cheap periphs that attach to your tablet and phones. Now exluding whats available now... numerous companies are pushing cloud gaming pretty hard and many of those are going to be announced this year with a few seeing launch late this year early next.
The Streaming side of the shield unit has a massive uphill battle. It's got to compete with 150-200 tablets and other devices. Kainy actually works very well and it's a $2 dollar app.
It's not just the companies and systems that will stream to TV's, it's also the hundreds of handheld systems out now and coming out that will stream as well. If you are on a budget these streaming devices will appeal far more than the shield unit because they simply offer more for less.
If the performance is what interests you then again... shield isn't the choice.
Where does the shield unit fit in?
Those on a budget have cheaper options
Those not on a budget and interested in performance have better options

We aren't the only ones scratching our heads. The folks at Gamasutra are asking the same questions:

As I see it, Shield is primarily for rendering things locally, with streaming games a minor niche use of it. Some people will get it primarily for streaming of course, but adding the streaming capability probably cost Nvidia basically nothing.
Sure, you can get higher end hardware for rendering games locally. It's called a desktop. The point of Shield is the small form factor.

First off the game I got to test was Skyrim. For me thats a fairly good test for a tablet gaming PC. If it can run Skyrim as well as it did and look as good as it did then guess what lol, I'm a happy camper :)
In any case, you are correct. Maybe we can compare your Shield hands on experience with my Fiona hands on experience. This might help us understand where each is coming from in the discussion.
Alright time for some misconceptions to be cleared up.
The Shield unit will NOT play PC games. It will only stream PC games and steam games from your PC and ONLY if you have an i5 or higher with an appropriate Nvidia GPU.
So again, it will NOT play PC games lol, only stream them.
This things primary purpose is a touchscreen tablet that plays Android games off of the google play market lol!
It can stream to your TV, so thats something but.. it's streaming from your PC to your TV through the Shield unit.
So it's best feature is that it will be like the Steam Box thats coming in the not to distant future, just not as good lol.

Two questions:
1) Was it rendering locally on the Fiona device, or was it rendering on some other device and streaming to the Fiona?
2) If it was streaming, then how far away was the device that was responsible for rendering the game?

If the game is made using DirectX, then that's correct. If it's made using OpenGL and a language that can run on Android, then porting it to Android might well be easy or even trivial. If it gets ported to Android, then it's an Android game, and whether it will run locally on the Shield is just a question of whether Tegra 4 has enough performance for it.

It doesn't matter, because how many people out there would want to stream PC games to a 5" handheld device when they can just get on the PC and play them. It's streaming them, meaning the PC is going to be in use regardless, so the feature seems a bit limited. More like a bullet point to check off the back of the box.

The Shield is a mobile gaming rig, like the Nintendo 3DS or the Sony PSP or Vita. It will have a market, provided by Nvidia for Shield specific games. It will also be able to run pretty much any game off of the Google market. It will have the fastest mobile processor available in any Android device. In that market, portable gaming rig and Android gaming device, $200 to $300 is a reasonable price tag.
To answer the question of how it would compete with the Fiona, it will hopefully cost $700 to $1000 less than the Fiona. Unless Nvidia goes insane with pricing and they try to sell their device for more than $300. In which case, I don't think they'll sell many of them at all and they will have wasted a lot of time.
As to how it would compete with other Android devices, it has what is currently the fastest Android processor available with the most advanced graphics, and it has everything you need built into the device. Cheaper devices will be slower, or they'll be Android PCs that do not include a screen or any sort of input device, much less a game controller. Again, if they are selling for $300 or less. If they go higher than $300, I don't think the Shield has any real advantage.
Many of the questions you're asking could be asked about the Nintendo handhelds that have sold so well over the years. Why would anyone buy them? Because there are people who want handheld gaming devices. They don't want tablets, they don't want phones, they want something to play games on. That's what the Shield is. If it's priced in the right range, it'll sell well. If not, it won't.
I can not remember winning or losing a single debate on the internet.

They are going to have an Nvidia Market, for (I assume) Shield exclusive games. This may be a big part of their strategy, the same way there are Xbox and PS3 exclusive games. It seems that they are doing something with Steam, so it seems at least possible that Valve might provide some Nvidia exclusive games.

Why would any sane developer make a game Nvidia Shield-exclusive, unless Nvidia pays them a bunch of money to do so? If you can make a game run on Nvidia Shield, then making it run on Windows and Linux desktops and laptops is likely to be nearly trivial, and Mac likely won't be too hard, either.
I think that the Nvidia store is going to be a place to gather games that will run well on the Nvidia Shield, to make it easy for people who buy it to find such games. It's not going to be a closed platform, so it won't offer the anti-piracy protections of consoles. Nvidia doesn't develop their own games like Microsoft, Sony, or Nintendo do, so there aren't any obvious candidates for a Shield-exclusive game.

Why do developers agree to make exclusive games for any particular console? I have no idea, I just know that they do it. It doesn't seem like it would be worth the effort to build and maintain a store for your device if you didn't have some exclusive content to draw people in. In addition to content that would be available on the Google store of course.

Honestly this could be a middle of the road situation -- as we saw with older android devices regarding hardware performance. For example, even to this day, most unoptimized visually intensive programs run poorly on older and cheaper/less capable android devices.
Android devices aren't like the new Windows Phones, where Microsoft requires certain hardware specifications. Originally Android handsets were built around an entirely different button scheme altogether, which has been removed and simplified on many of the newer devices.
Point being, theres a big different here between hardware - and in the event this "console" or - moreover, the hardware stays shield exclusive, and other developers don't take into account optimization for older devices, you'll have situations where there may be games that ONLY run on Nvidia Shield. You already see games like that on the market today.
Personally I feel like that is the opposite intention for the mobile gaming movement... its always been about accessibility.. which is what the App markets are about. I seriously doubt anyone would cater to a single device and fragment development, cutting themselves off from the majority of the base.

If you make your own console, it's obvious why you'd make console-exclusive games for your own console. But you know that, and the real question is why anyone else would make games exclusive to one particular console.
If you're worried about piracy, you don't port the game from console to PC. If you make extensive use of capabilities that one console has and another does not, then you can't really port it to the console that doesn't have those capabilities. That means a lot of games basically couldn't be ported to Wii.
As for Xbox 360 versus PS3, they're roughly comparable at a macro level, but the internal architectures are very different, and if you have a complete game ready to go for one of the consoles, it's actually a lot of work to port it to the other. They use very different CPU architectures that require very different CPU threading models. They use very different GPUs. They use different graphics APIs, though if you're trying to get lower level access to the GPU hardware than an API would give you, just using very different GPUs a huge problem even ignoring the APIs.
Nvidia Shield doesn't have that kind of radical dfiferences from everything else on the market. OpenGL is an industry standard, already supported by both AMD and Nvidia in their Radeon, GeForce, FirePro, and Tesla cards. Older versions of it are also supported by Intel. ARM cores are ubiquitous in the mobile space, and everyone and his neighbor's dog will soon be using exactly the same ARM Cortex A15 cores that the Tegra 4 is.
Unless you're coding your game with the close to metal access to the Tegra 4 GPU and ignoring APIs, porting it to other devices will probably be pretty easy to do. And even if you are doing that, there will probably soon be a bunch of other devices that use exactly the same Tegra 4 chip, so if your game runs on Nvidia Shield, then it will run just as well on a next generation Asus Transformer tablet or whatever. Shield runs Android, an open platform, so it doesn't have strong anti-piracy controls that you'd lose by porting it elsewhere.
You might well see games that can run on Nvidia Shield but not most other Android devices, for lack of API compliance or hardware performance. But it won't be Nvidia Shield-exclusive forever, as there will soon be plenty of other chips that have the performance to run it. Remember that Nvidia is primarily in the business of designing and selling chips, so their real goal is to get a bunch of other companies to buy Tegra 4 chips and integrate them into everything. In order to do that, they're going to go out of their way to make sure that anything that runs on Nvidia Shield also runs on any other device using a Tegra 4 chip.

Tony Scheffler went running down the field in double coverage against the Indianapolis colts and caught the ball milliseconds before stepping out of bounds.

Carnahan Slams the Door on New Home Construction Scam
Investor money for new home construction used for personal expenses
Jefferson City, Missouri -- Secretary of State Robin Carnahan's office recently issued a Cease and Desist Order against a Springfield father-and-son team for alleged violations involving an internet-based real estate investment scam.
The action was taken against Randy Allen Rippee and his son, Frankee Lee Allen Rippee, both of Springfield, Mo., as well as their companies RCH Investment Group, Inc., RCH Investment Corp., and Rippee Custom Homes, LLC.
Investigations led by Carnahan's Securities Division revealed that the Rippees solicited investments for new home construction near Branson, Mo., by promising investors a "guaranteed" return. Beginning in late 2004, the pair used a website to persuade people to invest more than $1.2 million in their companies. But financial records show that instead of putting this money towards new home construction, the Rippees instead used investor money to make payments to automobile dealerships, a baseball team, a resort, a dentist and a funeral home. They even paid over $300,000 to themselves in payroll and cash expenses.
To date, only $10,000 has been returned to investors and all of the homes are currently in foreclosure or have been foreclosed on.
"This case is an example of why investors should be on the lookout for those who claim to have investments that are 'guaranteed' or are a 'sure thing'," said Carnahan. "Always check out claims that sound too good to be true because they probably are. One call to the investor protection hotline at my office can help stop a scam before it starts."
The Rippees and their companies are prohibited from offering or selling any securities until they are properly registered with the Securities Division. Further actions could result in tens of thousands of dollars in penalties and costs for the Rippees and their companies. They have 30 days to request a hearing.
