To expand a little, its not that specular or specularity "isn't a thing", its that what we're actually talking about is specular reflections, its one thing, not two different things as many traditional shaders have implemented it. Older shaders would often have simple specular reflection from dynamic light sources, and…
I don't really think that anybody hear disagrees that something might be lost from completely procedural animation, but what is nice about the system that David showed was that a lot of the animation in Overgrowth is controlled by keyed poses. So with that you can get a lot of your personality in the characters still while…
Yah, my previous laptop was a Dell I got about midway through college. It was top of the line at the time.. right before laptops came with vid cards that supported normal maps. When the grunt of the system no longer supported the 3d work I was doing I migrated back to a tower. Now I'd like a system that'll last a while…
Noone wants several licenses for the prize of one. Money is not the issue here. I personally would pay way more for your app if the licensing system was better. One license needs to be usable on any number of systems (or limit the systems to 5 or something, with the user-controlled option to easily activate and de-activate…
Ohh.. i implied to not only use some license selection option on the search engine but also double check this on the site. Also.. found this almost the same way: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6EEvSMXzSv8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mTN5a-coJCA https://www.gameassetdeals.com/asset/82419/ms-skid-marks-system…
It's because the original poster was asking about what subjects to study in college. It's true that a degree doesn't really matter in games. The guy with the better demo is going to get the job, whether he has a degree or not. However, academic CS instruction can be very helpful. Not required, but helpful. Your earlier…
Yeah honestly the max system is pretty strange and convoluted. In maya you can simply select an edge loop and set it to hard. Max you have to make a face selection, and then assign it to the weird smooth group system thing. If you want to do something more complex like have a hard edge transition from hard to soft…
i got it on PC... i think it unlocks this friday. Can't wait to play this!

I've had my 360 for few years now, and still haven't had an issue (other than an occasional game crash for 'no read'). I don't use mine as much as others though. Usually only on weekends, if at all. I hope this doesn't start a console battle, but even though you mentioned the PS3 not exciting you, I would really research…
