Re: Double Fine Adventure Kickstarter
It would definitely work for EA. If they make a Mass Effect 4 kickstarter page it would probably make enough to completely fund the game... Thats whats scary. I know exactly what its like to work at a company that cant fund its own games, which is why I never want to do it again. Most big companies cant fund their own… -
Re: Monitors - For 3D and Gaming
I still like 32 inch hdtv for monitors, some are just amazing in both color range and quality. If one were to move away from the tv and want a gaming + art experience... then something like the LG Ultrawides. They are made for gaming and workstation use (graphics). See:… -
Re: Working with symmetry on non-symmetrical mesh - 3DSMax?
Thanks for the quick reply Leechdemon. I cant post pictures unfortunately, but the non symmetrical areas are fairly minor (hairstyles, addons such as jewellery etc). The reason I dont want to have to delete half the model and use symmetry/ mirror, or have multiple instancfes of the object is the characters are already… -
Re: Heightmaps from Google Earth or similar.
Thank you for the reply. Sadly however the data you linked me too is the exactly the same data that I obtained from a site I linked in my first post: http://www.viewfinderpanoramas.org/Coverage%20map%20viewfinderpanoramas_org3.htm Unfortunately it is just too low res to be much use. I used a little program called… -
Re: Outdoor lighting

Re: whine whine whine, blah blah blah.
If it is your first job, you are "The junior". In the old days this mant you were the barrel and crate man - you got punted the jobs that needed to be done but no-one else wants to do. A week of Excel sounds shitty, and perhaps an office temp could do it. Going through every objct, checking them, and making fixes is a job… -
Re: Shadows of Colossus Development Process
I cant speak for consoles, but for PC stuff it's like Rick explained. Basically you wouldnt want to transform every single tris and sort yourself. sometimes this is done for billboards, but then we just need to sort particles, as their billboards normally cant intersect. as they all basically work similar, consoles would… -
Re: Rockstar San Diego
I cant find the article, but I believe it was in game developers magazine. EA? rep was quoted about being less willing to hire anyone over 30 because these people would have more outside activities like families and less willing to overtime. In fact, its somewhat an aside, but that Masters of Interactive Media program that… -

Re: My debut 3D work! Roast it or praise it — all feedback is welcome!
"Chicom" type 56 SKS: Instantly recognized this weapon (didn't have to image search here) because I owned one during a stint in the forces waaay back in the day ...most of us had their favorite playtime weekender locked in the armory for 'yippy' shoots down at the brigade range so fairly knowledgeable handling it.
