Re: Should I attend a "3d animation" school if I want Entertainment Design/Art/Concept?
Don't do it. Lets say school will cost 100K total. Spend like 1/10th of that on some good classes/tutorials/computer and you'll be way ahead. I am taking a Digital Arts degree right now. There is 1 other student that is somewhat interested in game art out of the 30. Most of the students don't even take art seriously… -
Re: Game I'm working on was announced today.
Cool stuff, I love the art style. Those screenshots look great. I wish the advert showed some proper gameplay though. I was a big fan of Settlers back in the day, I played Settlers 1 and 2 to death, got Settlers 3 and 4 too but decided after those I wasn't gonna get any more of the games, since they were becoming less and… -

Nuala Johnstone was born 8 pounds 7 ounces at 3.34pm on September 10th and really, thats where the majority of my time has been spent lately She's doing great, growing very fast, freakishly attentive to the… -
Re: [MAXSCRIPT] Stack selection affects speed. How to achieve same boost using script?
Okay, sometimes you have to select in a loop, but the main issue in your original post was the duplicate work. You can take advantage of subtracting bit arrays to avoid the duplicated work. Check out these two functions below. The first takes 11 seconds on a default teapot and the second takes 1/10th of a second. The only… -
You gotta be kidding me...RIGHT?!?!
So ok... Some of you guys have read some of this on facebook but I wanted to share this with the community JUST IN CASE some of you decide to go the same route I went. I was offered a position as a contract 3d artist with Microsoft on the Kinect team working through Aquent as a contractor. I was sent all the appropriate… -
Timey Wimey Wibbly Wobbly Tardis
Been working on a Tardis from Doctor Who for a while now and gotten a bit stuck. For the most part, I've stuck with the design from the 10th Doctor's Tardis, as seen in the image below, although I've taken some freedoms here and there and tried to make it a bit more worn. At first, I was thinking about making it quite worn… -

Re: Discussion: Increasing your speed with highpoly hard-surface modeling
I'm not sure if anyone posted these yet but they do rock. http://www.mariussilaghi.com/ PolyFlow is pretty helpful, so is quad chamfer, as are all of the other tools. The only downside is they aren't free. I second or 14th swiftloop. There are times its a bit buggy, normally I have to zoom out if I'm having trouble placing… -

Why Make Games?
I was going through my place and happened upon a few relics of my past... For my 10th birthday my dad got me my first Commodore 64 & I finally got to retire my ailing Vic20. I was lucky that my dad had taste, the game selection was quite impressive as I got to play three of the best RPGs of all time, right off the bat…
