Riot knows best than I how to explain back story ;) here is a link to it :… -
Re: question about "fixing" normals in photoshop
Yep all of this +1. This is especially problematic if some other poor sap has to come in later and try to figure out the voodoo magic you used to produce a clean bake. Its far better to research and understand the baking process and why typical errors occur (most can be fixed with better geometry in your lowpoly). Plus, it… -
Re: [UE4] Sane – Third Person Adventure Game

Re: Crowd Funding, i.e. My Woes With it
I think it's really admirable to put so much effort into a project for zero compensation, and I can totally see why you are looking for funding, but here's my thoughts. The impression I get from Kickstarter projects is that they need to have an 'oh snap' quality of some kind. Now, that doesn't mean they're necessarily… -
Re: UI discussion: Windows 8 starting to look like the new 3dsMax direction
I don't understand the argument of the big ugly colorful icons being targeted to "new users with no prior Win experience".

Re: Next-gen rendering trends
Kinda depends to which degree and everyone defines real-time raytracing as something different. Be it the full image completely path traced like film, or these new hybrid systems where just certain global effects are traced, incremental lightmaps whatever. Mainstream heavy use is away agreed, we will see how dxr… -
Re: Driving to a studio to apply in person - Good idea, bad idea?
As someone heavily involved in the hiring process, here are a few answers based on some points brought up in this thread: - Do not show up in person. It isn’t needed if you have a strong portfolio and doesn’t make you stand out in a good way. Portfolio is the key to getting a studio to notice you. I’m working on content… -
Re: What makes a great Game Environment? (Aesthetically)
What makes you go wow is when every design principle is sound and it's working together really well with all the other departments but that's a thing that's really hard to get. There is no magic sauce solution to these things so you shouldn't expect an answer that will solve all problems. Usually Environment Art for games… -
Re: Seeking portfolio review
Hey Maiz, you've got some nice work in your portfolio. Carbine: The carbine is a nice model, nicely presented. Some nitpicking here but you the chipping on the wood feels a bit blobby and there is a hard edge that you can see on the handle. Looking at the wireframe there are a lot of pointless edge loops that you could… -
Re: A moment for everyone
Heres what the majority of us do: 1. Post 2. Get crits (some have a tendency to make excuses, but will listen) 3. Make the improvements right away if it isnt too late 4. ?????? 5. ART WILL LOOK BETTER Here is what you do 1. Post (a crappy model, but nothing we havent seen before, you just need some guidance) 2. get crits…
