Re: Which is the most commonly used 3D modelling suite in the Games Industry?
There's been times when I have moved teams in the same office and swapped between three dimensional studio maximus and Maya. Personally I preferred Maya as its name was better, if I had to make the jump again I would try Modo as I have only tinkered with it but it seems cool. Also knowing Maya allowed me to jump into a VFX… -
Re: Gary The Shrew! (Wip Unity project)
His left arm really creeps me out. It is so long and it flops around at strange angles... Well, good start, I hope you add some camera controls soon :D You should really push the "the game designer may possibly be on drugs" idea, sounds fun! I had fun climbing out of the valley. And I really like all the lovely swaying… -
Re: Is Alan Moore the greatest comics writer ever?
I'd shag pretty much anyone in this thread for a million dollars. What do I care, a quick poke up some bloke's gary glitter and then I could coast on the 130k interest earned of a million dollars each year for the rest of my life Anyone like Moore's early stuff on Captain britain, his work with Alan Davis was great back… -
Re: need a new monitor
I have the 226CW, which is the version that is guaranteed to be a Samsung panel. 226BW is the same thing but has a version of the panel not manufactured by Samsung. I haven't heard of the 2232GW, but I suspect it to be a newer version with swapped components. I really like the 226CW, it's a great widescreen without… -
Re: 3D artist + concept support for Dominance War 4?
I heard second place was a toff about it, took it on the chin like a grownup, with only a slight brown trouser protest and a few days of uncontrollable weeping. Heard first place swanned about and got some sort of half-baked job at some second rate studio though. Not that there is any bitterness or anything. Nope. edit :… -

Re: Texture Atlas resolution?
Atlas is a good practice in almost every case. Atlas do not tend to look to be closer to low resolution, if it does, then you are down scaling your textures. Atlas is widely used in every game generation. Some few reasons to use atlas is to reduce CPU overhead, by doing a lot less draw calls, its also reduce the GPU buffer… -
Re: 3dsmax Polycount Bottleneck?? 64bit
i got an I7 as well, and had the exact same issues as you're having with a 9800GT. i recently swapped to an ATI card. and the issues are gone. i also had an intermittent stutter issue in the viewports when having several splines in the viewport, which is also gone with the ATI card. i think its a hardware compatibility… -
Re: Building an environment - Evil Genius hidden forest base
Striker, right now the water is a modified Epic material setup inside of my own material. The biggest difference are the fadeoff distance from the shore, the colour, and overall opacity. Eventually I'll swap in my own normal maps to make it my own.mkandersson mkandersson - Welcome! I was thinking of showing the foliage and… -
Re: Sketchbook: Vault-2082
Sorry for re-showing by a quote but I really like this! Just though I'd let you know :) Also I don't know if you read David Gemmell but if you swapped out the claws for swords this guy would be an awesome representation of Skilgannon the Damned! You mind if I save this into my inspiration file? PS just let me know and I'll…
