That damn cobble path will be the end of me haha. I'm not a big fan of the idea of placing a ton of cobble stone models by hand (tried that with the bricks and gave up XD) on the landscape, but maybe I can see what I can do with adding some normal maps to it and possibly cutting up the cobbles into smaller fragments/closer…
It's been a while since I've posed (About half a year) But I've been working on a small assortment of models. I'll post what I've been working on in this Thread. After I completed work on my Space Ship Combat game. I decided to dedicate some time every week to improve my 3D modeling skills. My program of choice was Blender…
PS3 sounds awesome and with Devil May Cry 3 and Metal Gear Solid 4 im sure i'll be buying one ______________________________________________________ Sony also confirmed the PlayStation 3, will use Blu-Ray discs as its media format. The discs can hold up to six times as much data as current-generation DVDs. It will also…
Hey @Kaine123! Right now I get about 35-40 fps in PIE. There's a dip there obviously when you try and use PIE as a performance metric and I have a beat up machine. Its def still a work in progress for sure. I think I can continue to slim things down and bring in the draw distance on my furthest grass cluster. I could also…

Firstly, post wires. While soft normals and smoothing groups look nice and pretty visually, physics relies both on raw vertex density and CORRECT triangulation. [EDIT: OH CHRIST I GOT THE BOTTOM PICTURES IN THE WRONG ORDER] As you can see, reversing the triangulation has a MASSIVE effect on what the physics engine has to…
@Melazee Thank you for the kind comment and feedback! I love platformers too and working on this guy has been a blast! While I don't plan on rigging him myself, I want this character to be ready to go onto the next stage in a production pipeline so I have been building his low poly mesh to be ready for rigging. Basically…
Well after checking out the specs on the Alienware Area-51m 7700 I'm hooked! I would love to get one so I started checking out ebay, but Im so damn skeptic of spending that kind of money on ebay, let alone those guys who wanna take the transaction outside of ebay. Some got prices so low its got to be a scam. Like $900 for…
I used to be a pretty avid PC gamer, but it has gotten to the point where I only buy 5 or 6 new games (including console titles) a year. This happens a lot when I buy a new PC game: -buy the game (for $50). Excited to get home and play it -get home, start installing the game which takes maybe 20 minutes depending the…
Rick, because the past has shown ths notion is wrong. When I (took and take) classes. I output. I enjoy myself. Things are accomplished. Im on task. When I don't, the ability fades away. Im outputting now with these current classes, but what Im outputting isnt game related and is more just methodology (like doing your…
