Re: Am I stupid for considering this?
@ Super happy cow I've actually put a lot of thought into such things, with the primary rendering being deferred cramming as much information into as small a space as possible is very very important. @Maph Multi-Platform will be a later concern, for now we can't afford development consoles. Deferred rendering is the way… -
Re: Batman Arkham Origins
I love this game, and i love to beat the bad guys in the city. I spend more time fighting mobs than following the main quest :) (like with assassin's creed). The integration of physx and TXAA and other effects makes the experience much better. I love to see how the snow is deformed, the cape, the effects, etc. Glad i have… -
Re: Do Black Game Developers Exist?
In a perfect world this would be true. But this would also be the world where Jim Crow laws didn't exist. Or the spike in hate crimes against Muslims/Sikhs after the 9/11 attacks. Empirically, racial and gender discrimination is well documented. As I said before, you need to distinguish between directly blaming the cause,… -
Re: Hardware Question for a New Modeller
probably the only tablet that will have the horse power to use most professional software effectivley is the Cintique from Wacom. because its essentially a monitor connected to a desktop system. i have been contemplating switching to a Cintique for a long time but i'm still undecided. it seems great for painting and… -
Re: PBR Roughness/Metallic vs Specular/Gloss
Thanks guys! Yea that really makes sense. I'm using toolbag right now. Yea this gens terminology has been so crazy. I get so lost converting maps sometimes. I'm a texture artist at Gametextures.com and our goal is to get all the mats to look similar in all the engines, but at the same time get the best look/quality… -
Re: TurtleTank
Hey NickT3D, thanks for pointing that out to Praetus. Your description is completely correct. I'm amazed that you actually spotted the pistons! I didn't think anyone would really pay enough attention to see those. When I nearly finished them I figured I might as well have just put them on simple beams instead of a whole… -
Re: [General Discussion] - Setting up a quick portfolio site
Woo, I tried it and it's indeed very fast. Started at 11.41pm, everything was up and running at midnight, nice. But I created my own database and update system for my own website so why bother Php and Mysql For Dummies gave me all I needed, I hacked a working system out of the examples in a week of evening efforts. But… -
Re: Open Source Renderfarm
Keep us posted on how you do, Setting up backburner and max is pretty easy, just follow the manual and its a snap. Some things to consider: A File server is extremely usefull. Map the server to something like z: on all your computers and use that as a place to render to, and to store files such as textures and final gather… -
Re: Silo 2 is out! Rejoice!
Cross platform support = awesome Good customer support = sweet Base mesh editing while sculpting = holy crap! Support for UV mapping and normal map generation = FTW The program is clearly not a feature-rich as major applications like Maya, Max, or SoftImage. For that matter, it isn't even as feature rich as Blender.… -
Re: 3d max - a couple of questions and problems
I remember for a long time I couldn't get snaps to work, I thought everyone that could, was nuts and using some kind of voodoo vortex. I remember playing with it for a few hours (max 9) and got it to work. In the end I was pretty sure the only thing I did different from default was turn on "use axis center as start snap…
