Hello All, I have recently started to take a new direction with my portfolio site design because I was getting bad feedback. I wanted to get some more opinions and JesseMoody has been stressing the fact that this is my best resource. Here are some of my ideas, nothing is set in stone. Jesse mentioned that I might want to…
So I have a $600-800 budget to try and get a good gaming rig, and im not the best at hardware so no building from scratch, even though its the best possible solution. Id prefer buying a decent desktop maybe 2.5-3.0ghz, few gb of ram, and switching out the graphics card to something that could easily run the majority of the…
Hola! So I have been working on this guy and I thought it was a good time to get some critique. To start off with this is based on the Gi Joe action figure, Mercer. However I'm trying to push it to a next gen level as a hero character in a 3rd person shooter. So I've been doing some paintover and trying to gear him up, bit…
LoL! I wrote about three pages renting about the old folder structure in our project...then I realised you also work in the game industry and have probably seen worst. Just think of problems you had with naming conventions - we had them all! What now works best in our !small project: - deep hierarchy i.e.…

When you have a chapter 11 sale like this, the funds raised during the sale are spread by the court among the various debtors,…
Hey dude, I started 3D about the same time you did and I've come a long way. No doubt, learning something as complex as 3D art for games is really frustrating! You are almost there. It took me almost two entire years of exertion to get to an industry standard level. So you say you enjoy sculpting and baking normal maps,…
Great post, just a few things here that I think are important to clarify: Generally, what you're referring to is called a reflection occlusion mask, and whether you need one of these varies heavily on the engine (as you pointed out above), I think referring to it simply as occlusion is little confusing. Reflection…
i dont have a huge problem with only controlling one character, because later on the battles get so crazy and fast that controlling everyone would be a nightmare. my biggest gripes though: - you can only ever use one summon. They force you into challenging, and sometimes infuriating Eidolon fights, yet you cannot use them…
on the subject of releasing DLC in a delyed fashion just to "improve you image" to a bunch of un-educated internet babies....thats a really dumb business decision. There is a always going to be a hungry group of fans who finish the main game in 24 hours and want more. Also, why would a company not ride the wave of current…
