Re: Quake 3 turns 10 years old - has technology advanced as you once thought it might?
I think there are fatal flaws in Moore's Law when applied to games. I think we go through areas of great improvement and then followed by extreme periods of stagnation. I don't think we can double in awesome every 2-4 years. Hardware stagnation: It has gotten worse since the consoles have become the predominate platform. I… -
Re: Shadowsmaps - What are they?
what are shadow maps you say? :poly122: you dare speak such blaspheme! :) well i'm not sure how technical you want to get. and i'm not sure how accurate i can get depending on how technical you want to get... but shadow maps form what i understand are basically a depth buffer image taken from the point of view of a… -
Re: xnormal 4.0 features
nice stuff! you could make "xBake" where you just expose the baking engine via C dll bindings. And it's fed from end-user with the needed data. That way it can be integrated in any app, and it also lifts the need for you to implement tons of viewport renderers, fileformats..., as people can make the ui/viewport / data… -
Is there any demand for a game asset focused modeling tool?
Hi everyone, Recently things have been falling into place for me in terms of opportunities, connections and finance. I thought I would mention this issue as it has been around for a long time now.

Re: General dSLR advice

The D7000 has survived falls onto sharp rocks from 6 feet up, being completely drenched in saltwater, blizzards and sandstorms. Still works like a… -
Re: What do you do when people you know pirate games?
I have pirated almost every game I have on my drive but I buy all the ones I like and delete the rest, usually after only a few mins of play. My connection is blazing fast when downloadinng off local torrent servers. If I can find a demo torrent I go that way but usually there isn't one unless its a pre release demo. Its… -
Re: Dungeon Legend - Mac/PC
I watched the video that you provided. The game environment looks well polished but I am inclined to agree with everyone else on the speed of the combat. You can take that as you want but I want to explain this critique that you have been given as it pertains to how I feel. Animations for attacks, both monster and hero:… -
Re: Dwarven Fighter
