Re: What Modern Games are missing!
Totally agree. My golden era of gaming was the Snes days, and I STILL even now, whack songs from those days on Youtube. I usually play Super Metroids soundtrack, or even Donkey Kong Country. DKC2 has some of the best music in games ever. Things were also so much more simple back then, it was an age where YES, its fine to… -
Re: Rumour: Autodesk apparently killing Softimage!
only starting to show...? ;) at least a max rewrite was rumoured several times throughout the last decade. after ballsing up the development of their 'next-gen' compositor toxik (now named composite and bundled with max and maya?) one would think that a rewrite of such complex applications is no easy deal for them. it… -
Re: Reapplying after "failed" phone interview?
Rick Stirling: Wanted to single you out real quick. I haven't been a regular member since discovering polycount back in q2pmp days, but I do try to keep up with most of the useful post's and the great art here. I just wanted to thank you for the tips and articles on your site, they have come in handy on many occasions,… -
Re: ASCII 3D file formats
CrazyButcher: you forgot the link but I kind of think that I know what it is about, in max it really is easy to write any values very quickly to any ASCI format using format and other methods. Some reasons to go for a custom format: - reduce filesize (go perhaps binary) - store unique special data - optimize for… -
Re: Joe's Recent Work
Ben Apuna, Goraaz: Thanks for the crit. I've changed the goblin's spec map as you suggested, and added a subtle AO in the diffuse. I still don't think there's enough variation, but it doesn't seem to change much even when I make the map high contrast. I've attached the new images as well as the diffuse and specular maps.… -
Re: Blizzard Internships 2010
Sorry to hear that you didn't get the internship Haisi, but don't fret! Some positions are VERY specific and your portfolio may have not been tailored to it. Could I take a looksie at your folio by chance? The way our team(Wow Props) do the intern process is: folio's get filtered through the art director and lead, they… -
Re: Portfolio up for critique!
Most game studios don't care about demo reels, you need to put stills of your work front and center! Like others have already stated, your work needs to be presented in real time (use UDK or Marmoset) if you want to work in games. Work on some lower poly characters with current gen texturing techniques and show your… -
Re: Sketchbook: Cody Rauh
So I work doing mobile game and online game assets on platforms with some limited graphic capability. Generally for clients who want entire characters, from start to finish in a few hours and generally for super cheap. When asking for career advice on finding something new, ( company I worked for two years closed doors… -
Re: Game industry recruitment agencies
Well, many agencies that I find actually say that they take money when they find an artist, not from you, but from companies that hire them. Of course that will lead to pay you less, but that is a way to enter the industry. If not agencies, then, what will be better option to enter the game industry? I must say that i live… -
Re: [udk] Collapsed Sewer
Hmmm... I'm going to have to disagree with this. As you can see... this entire scene is fairly desaturated to begin with, and those pipes are a welcomed colour. Now... the problem is I think you need something to balance the scene resting at the bottom. You kinnndaa have something happening with those red cola cans, but I…
