Played about 12 hours so far, completed most the light world and half the dark worlds (still need to do that cotton world!) I'm playing with a 360 pad. Its easily the most challenging fun I've had for a long long time, I can't remember the last game I played that had this kind of fast paced skillful platforming... maybe…
So I finally retopped him, it took me longer than i would have liked it too, i got confused around certain part like the hookshot arm. i wanted the tri count to match next gen tri counts, ultimately i'm still not sure what i good tri count is for a character. after reading edge magazine issue 267, it said sunset…
Thanks a lot guys for your feedback/comments/suggestions :) Totally appreciate that. As most of u suggested, added more large background pieces, more light/shadow contrast, post-process tweaks of the colors/contrast too. Added/re-aranged some close ground pieces for extra depth/parallax feel. I did not really target for a…
The character seems too small for the environment, unless the dungeon was designed by/for giants. Doorways appear to be ~15' (5m) tall, with 25' (8m) ceilings. I wonder if the environment would work better with darker ceilings. On the skeleton, I'd probably add some asymmetry to his(?) clothes - make one pant leg reach all…
@ Gallows: Homer: All work and no play make Homer something something Marge: Go crazy? Homer: Don't mind if I do.... I get the hardcore "stay on topic, its all game art all the time 365" attitude, I've made great use of it at different times in my life. But really I like a well balanced polycount too. I think a little off…
There are a few things that are going for it-- -It is easier to use than existing console or PC platforms. No installs, no DLC or waiting for firmware updates. No expensive hardware to pick up or connect. No extra services to sign up for other than the original. No DRM bullshit. -The lag is actually quite small (if you get…
Plop plop! Here is the progression : http://a.samavan.com/openGL/SamaTest_A.exe (file size : 120ko, do not need to install, double click on it) Exporter is done with Python from Maya. *.exe file built with Visual C++ express 2008 and openGL Library. To explain quickly, my python script creates the C++ code I need to create…
What is this windscreen you speak of? And a telegrap pole? Your story reminded me of a different accident that I was ALMOST in. I was approaching a light to make a left turn, but for some reason was in a daze, and not paying attention to the light. So I was going really slow rather than up to speed so that I could catch…
Yes, I would recommend custom vertex normals for baking normals to any engine that supports them. Whenever there is geometry in the transition between two flat faces on the lowpoly, like a chamfer or a curved surface, like that chamferbox to the right at 6 minutes in the vid: ( https://youtu.be/_kONIPr_gBM?t=362 ), you can…
Hi Polycount, I came here from Reddit as a recommendation, English is not my fist language so bear with me please. I’m a 26 years old self thought designer (I studied software engineering in the university) I’m good with software in general, being able to instinctively get the grasp of them with the help of some videos,…
