Re: A mana well

Re: NVIDIA Melody problems
You don't need a normal map to view models. Try checking "move light", then hold control and click in the view window while moving the mouse around. If that doesn't work it sounds like it may be outdated video card drivers. Hope it works out for you, Melody is a great tool for reducing polys too. -

Re: Absention - A VR mystery survival horror game

I say that only because it falls victim to a trend in environment art videos that I personally despise: Forward, swooping dolly shots or vertical and horizontal dolly shots that are overly dramatic and clearly focused on an… -
