Looks great, man! Really impressive leap from the 7th to the 12th. I'd recommend the Eat3D hard surface techniques in zbrush tutorial - it shows some really nice techniques for getting clean hard surface results out of zbrush, which can greatly speed up that portion of the modeling. You do NOT need to uv unwrap the high…
Here's the thing about doing real time viz work. Can you complete the task in 2 days and have the ability to make changes at the 11th hour? If you can't then avoid even trying to pitch this idea to architects. Most of the time, work for architects means your are in bid, SD or DD phases which during that time the project…
I would recommend experimenting with lots more than just smooth jazz or other "zone out" music. Everybody that works with music seems to have their own music that clicks with them - I've worked with a guy that had a 200-disc blues collection he'd cruise to, one guy that always seemed to have AC/DC cranked up, and one crazy…
Thanks guys! Hawken in particular. My setting is supposed to take place way back in the 18th century. I'm not sure, but I don't think stickers like that even existed back then. As for the colors of the torii, thanks for pointing that out! I was looking at references such as: There, the base is black. Seeing you are from…
"Salem Out 2011 Alright, how’s this for a setting. Salem is a casual massively multiplayer crafting game where everybody plays settlers in a fantastical re-imagining of 17th century New England. You’ll be able to forge into the wilderness and build yourself a homestead as a good little pilgrim, or travel a darker path and…
Crytek and Bahçeşehir University have opened a VR lab back in 19th of January. AMD, Logitech MSI are also sponsoring projects there. http://www.bahcesehir.edu.tr/icerik/10296-bau-crytek-virtual-reality-lab-is-launched https://80.lv/articles/crytek-opened-a-vr-laboratory-in-turkey/ my turkish knowledge is sparse but I tried…
Ugh, I couldn't get through that whole article. After about the 15th time he repeated the same points I had to stop. It's too preachy, accusatory and self-loathing. I don't refute that the problems he describes exist but as DKK mentioned it goes both ways. It can't be solved by one side just accepting the other all the…
May 18th will be title 4 for me. Some of them I've been heavily involved with in house (bloodrayne 2, and DAoC: Catacombs) and others I've been a remote contractor contributing only a little. I get the majority of my enjoyment during production, working with a fun team. It's why the working environment is such a high…
[ QUOTE ] 600 dollar console + 60 dollar game for a million random encounters with better graphics and a story that everyone has already played? [/ QUOTE ] Man, I just spent $3500 today on a new HD TV because I decided my old HD TV wasn't uber enough. $700 for a blu-ray DVD player and FF7 Special Edition is something I…
Starting to feel that way now... Bit of a shame too because I've NEVER had any issues online before with regards to money, and lets face it, its pretty damn scary having any issues... My bank said the same thing, Steam/nobody has even touched my account other than me at a cashpoint, theres no records of them even trying...…
