Re: Bernie Sanders ideas is to make Wall Street pay for free education
when did i say they were all started by dems. dems just continued them and made them even stronger which is exactly my point. there is no fundamental difference when it comes to serious matters like wars. fyi, under ACA it is only beneficial for a certain income range i guess. once you make good money you actually end up… -
Re: 3D game portoflio environment, where to start?
If you want good foliage out-of-the-box, CryEngine is the best bet. If you want an engine that is used by the most studios, Unreal is probably the best bet. Dear Esther uses the Source engine. Eidos uses mostly custom engines. Unity is used more often by smaller studios and indies than by the big studios. But the engine… -
Re: Maya LT
Yeah, I'd take that too, but the obj restriction still bothers me. I might might might even be able to live with the 25K thing, but I move back and forth between zbrush and Maya too much to add the file conversion step into the process. Would really like to be able to use that shaderFX though, looks great. It's too bad,… -
Re: EA + T2i?
[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] Yea, I feel like EA has been pretty decent lately. Maybe its necessary for most dev studios to be funded by a massive conglomerate like EA in order for us to support our un-profitable bussiness. [/ QUOTE ] that wouldn't explain take twos take over, because they are hugely profitable. Rockstar is just… -
Re: Arrrr, the piracy poll!
Pokemon prompted me to Pirate DS games for a while since I didn't want to pay another +$30 to get essentially the same game. Some of the R4 hacks were also extremely convenient for breeding, infinite TMs, and so forth. Not to mention I could have all my games in one cartridge. But the 3DS DRM is/was much tougher to crack… -
Re: Sketchbook: Brandon
Hi Rueben, I bounced through several different references each with their various strengths and weaknesses. Here's a list of the major ones: Classic Human Anatomy, Valerie L. Winslow - This book does a great job of breaking anatomy into easily-digestible chunks. It identifies each muscle's origin and insertion, as well as… -
The Importance of Proximity
I would like to get everyone's opinion on the importance of proximity in regards to breaking into the games industry. I have been presented with the opportunity to transfer to the LA area with my current non dev job. It would be a big move, but I was there a few weeks ago and I really liked it. I currently live in Houston,… -
Re: Who loves and hates pixel art, and why?
I find that a lot of the gripe with pixel art doesn't come from within the industry but rather the gaming community. A lot of people just think its super easy and that its a cop-out. I find that those people have very little insight into the process or design of such things in game. Owlboy style high-def pixel art is my… -
Re: Is it just me or is Autodesk putting 3DS Max aside?
@Nodeway This forum has it's roots in game dev and is primarily a game dev forum. This $90 billion industry isn't just a few "old" studios. Windows is pretty much the defacto dev environment and either Max or Maya will have a big presence in most studios. I know a small number that use Houdini as plugin but it really… -
