Re: Point and shoot cameras?
I still use the phone - and it's a sony too - for a little 2.0mp thing with no zoom it's taken some pretty awesome shots over the years - though a point-and-shoot gives you a little more freedom when it comes to composition. This is where I think I'm headed, the only two downsides are the price : £340 / $540 (being that… -
Re: Airship dock UE4
So I spent about 4 hours in Modo today blocking out what I'm thinking off the top of my head. I'm going to hunt down some reference for what I want it to look later but as a first move I like roughing general shapes out in 3D. (Quick shout out to Modo - it's an excellent tool for this sort of thing!) I wanted a two tier… -
Re: Wings Of Steel 2D game
Final Release! Final release now uploaded. This time there is an installer with the redistributable packages that is needed to start the game. The memory leaks and some other smaller issues have been sorted out. Because of a new project starting now we probably won't have time to fix everything we wanted. Enjoy! Link to… -
Re: xNormal - MASTER THREAD
[ QUOTE ] Jogshy: About identical file extensions: Don't you check the file header anyway to avoid loading garbage? And if you do, then users shouldn't have to specify formats/plugins.

Re: Reducing crunch - is there any market research to suggest improved graphics matters at all?
I feel the same way. But then I don't know if we would be in the same audience that buys the latest blockbuster games. I typically don't play AAA games anymore, but I do like Naughty Dog games because they actually have some legit gameplay, but I recall in the last one just blazing through areas that looked like probably a… -
Re: Fuck The 3d Bandwagon
I've had a theory going for a while that goes with what you just wrote. The masses are idiots. Crowds of sheep, zombies on stampede. But individuals are smart, sensible people. It's just, you take a bunch of clever people, shove them together in a group and force some kind of marketing ploy, or socially viral fad on them,… -
Re: Tropes in Videogames
Zwebbie: i dont agree. you could make the same justification of stereotypes anywhere in mainstream media, lets say in an action movie; "the bad guy has to be a russian, so the american audience knows hes evil". of course theses sterotypes are used because of a reason, that they sell. it has nothing to do with the game as a… -
Re: Sketchbook: Frank Polygon
Material study: model tank road wheel. This is a quick overview of a recent material study for real-time vehicle models. The primary goal was to create a simple PBR texture, using a visual style that blends a few detail cues from reference images with some stylized painting techniques for weathering scale models. An… -
Re: Where did all the cheats go?
Personally I love that games are easier, if I can finish a game in 7 to 10 hours and have an awesome experience thats still at least 3 times as much entertainment as a big blockbuster film to me and then spend a few more hours messing around(multiplayer or whatever) and its been totally worth the money paid and effort of… -
Re: Stardust trailer..
[ QUOTE ] ...so I expect it'll be absorbing to see in a theater... [/ QUOTE ] I think it's more absorbing to see it at the home theater. I commonly hear that "this is one you shouldn't miss on the big screen" but really what I find is that the theater is just a big pain in the ass. At the theater you have people that won't…
