Unreal doesn't use simplygon - you can plug it in but the default is just a rudimentary (shite) decimator ok so.. this is a gross oversimplification but hopefully gets the point across The primary function of LODs is to reduce the amount of stuff on screen that your machine has to process so that it can draw frames more…
Hey guys, I need a fresh set of eyes for my work. You know if anything needs to be re-arranged or taken out? Strengths and weaknesses you see in my work. So I know the direction I should be heading, because in all honesty after a year of soul searching I found out what I want to do- Handpainted. What kills me though is…
You're on the right path for both render and game-mesh (or at least one of the right paths; there's always more than one way to do something). Take note that I have a very limited amount of experience compared to what many others on this site may have, but I can at least pitch in my two cents, and maybe point you in the…

All I see under the initial options is one pull down as picture…
I watched Jaws when I was about seven years old. It was a good movie then. I've watched it numerous times since then. It gets better, every single time I see it. The older I get, the more suited I am to appreciate the subtelty of the performances in that movie. The film was shot and set in the 70s. It is 2014 and it is…
Specialization, BAH! Show that you can specialize in more than one thing =P I refuse to believe that having a diverse skill set will screw anyone out of a job. Now if you have forsaken getting good at anything, in favor of learning a bunch of things, then yes it can hurt you. But only because it shows you have a weak skill…

Heat damage tends to accumulate over time and when it happens once,…
