Bad start for me.. Notch fixed the 'eternal flame' bug, which mean my fireplace burned through to the wood frame of my off-the-cliff-face house.. which burned down most of the house. Spent another 2+ ingame days rebuilding the place and the firepit, only to find that it didn't work anymore. Also, seems I can't make a…
What was the top-down shooter that Raven released years ago using the Quake 1 engine. Take no Prisoners, right? I seem to remember the weapons information screen featuring the recipe for molotov cocktails. I would've never thought of adding soap flakes to my incendiary to make the chemical sticky and flames more difficult…
...remakes like this http://kotaku.com/5164152/a-boy-and-his-blob-and-their-screenshots are golden. I love the art direction they took with this title. I never had a chance to play the original game, but I remember the name as clear as day. It is nice to see developers "trying" on the Wii. (Crossing fingers for MH3 tri…
nah thats pretty much it. A plane with a lens flare texture placed at the light location and set to always face player camera. Sometimes you can control opacity with a dot product between player facing angle and sprite location so the flare only shows brightly when you look at it directly. Starsiege (1999) had a sun flare…
Holy flaming Polygon on a Nurbs Mark, don't bloody blame yourself for someone else's mistake. That person could have very well, looked for a premade store and asked the guys to assemble the PC for him, hell they do that for Laptops. Honestly, why are you being harsh on yourself for just posting up a list as a guide to…
You mean "Do I wanna do a chubby, and what will my friends think?" or "I'll do her when I'm lonely, but I wont go out with her." thoughts? Yeah, I know what you mean......more unapropirate thoughts. I know I'm inviting flamers....I don't care. Take a midol. shotgun started it. Thanks! Besides, if you start flaming maybe…
Hello everyone! (or should I say, hello polycounters? :3 ) I've been interested in modeling for some time now, as I did like 4 years ago too. 4 years ago I found an excellent free modeling program, but I totally forgot everything about what it was/how I found it. So what I am asking is, does anyone know any good free 3d…
The level of detail is brilliant for a web based client, the most impressive ( aside from the lightmaps and palette shifting ) is the flame effects and explosions, the particles are very realistic looking. :) After I posted about the pink bucket missing from the store, every other paint I found in the levels seemed to be…
hey man, thanks a lot for the critics and comments. I think the overall can be pushed further too, i'm currently trying to get substance into my workflow so it can get iffy sometime. The flames on the sword are simple alpha cards with a heat map (somewhat similar to emmisive) and a light at their beginning to…
if your walk animation is 20 frames long you have to render frame 1 to 19 for a perfect cycle and/or edit ipo-curves. blender is definately not to blame!
