How to bake Xgen fur/hair details in Maya

Re: Jet Bike WIP
I wouldn't want to sit ontop of a 2m long jet engine. rule of cool can sit in the corner for a second, but that turbine is going to cook the legs of anything attempting to straddle your jet bike.

Re: 2D-UT character design
good stuff. those character bios are frankly more than a little unseemly, but the bunny fellow definitely merits development. something to consider, though: would a bunny soldier enclose his ears in metal? many animals can swivel their ears to locate sounds (talk about positional audio!), so this guy would be giving up… -

Re: Larger asset materials, what would you do?
This is from the stat menu, not sure how it varies based on a proper execution of the packaged version yet. What do you think? I've noticed the texture pool is capped at 800mb. I'm going to assume this means if my VRAM was a capacity of 1GB then this is good figure. I don't know if that's how it works though. -
Re: Do NDA's really matter given the remote work situation many developers are facing right now?
Of this topic? To observe and understand how NDA's perform in an extreme situation so that we can better prepare in the future to accommodate a more balanced approach to game development, with employees given the choice to work from home or in studio. Its an interesting comparison between the very protective and… -
