Re: Stereotypes in video games?
Selling 8 million copies of a game that costs $25 at max price is not the same as selling 8 million copies of a game that costs $60. Angry Birds has sold well over 100 million copies to date, do you think it would be able to do that with a $60 pricepoint? Is this an indicator that the Angry Birds developers know better… -
Re: detail shmetail
Ninjas - Windows, drywall, brick walls, street lights, chairs etc... all don't necessarily add to gameplay, they add to context. Imagine for a second a game where you are able to move a camera around in a maze with plain grey walls. There are grey boxes that move around that you have to click on and will disappear when you… -
Re: help please.
Depending on if you want to be a game designer or level designer your focus should be slightly different. As a games designeryou'll want to learn a game engine, the basics of at least one major industry standard 3d package, several pragramming languages such as C++ / C#, and maybe scripting in a language such as python or… -
Re: Color Grading Problem in After Effects
Did you render directly out to EXR? If you rendered to PNG then converted those to EXR, then likely it needs to be re-rendered. Also, half float should be plenty for this. Full float is way overkill, unless you’re doing major color editing. -

Re: Landscape and roads
splines in unreal are very tedious and buggy on a large terrain (4km+) editing a model with like 100k+ triangles in maya can be a pain. you can split it into pieces though and recombine if you have to do it the simplest way i've found is a little tedious but it is fast and simple - i paint a texture mask (like just mask… -
Re: [WIP] Need Critique on My Machine Gun (M2HB)
@sacboi In his second (EDIT: THIRD) to last comment he said he is aiming for 3rd person view asset quality, not sure if that's changed. Of course what that means in terms of poly count and texture size varies by game. For example, The Last of Us: Part II has fairly high quality player character weapon assets, but I think… -
Re: [UDK] [WIP] "The Two Towers" Abandoned Water Tower Hideout
@nathanbarrett Thank you!! -- These past weeks have been kinda crazy, not gonna lie. I interviewed for a 3D Artist position at a company in Boston (not saying which, just yet) last Tuesday and it went amazing. I pretty much got hired on the spot due to a stellar interview, however we're just waiting for mundane paperwork… -
Re: lowpoly from highpoly zbrush
ZBrush retopology is pretty lacking these days. It really hasn't been touched in a while, so it's mostly just basic grunt work. I'd use it for getting down simpler shapes and basemeshes, but if you have access to other programs (Max/Maya/Softimage/Topogun/whatever), then you'll probably find they offer more convenient… -
