Re: Sketchbook: AndrewHelenek
I supose I'll start this off with the Djinn Forge Spirit I did with Robo, this was such a badass little guy to work with. And the custom particles by Drew Carrymore really push this summon so much farther, he looks so wicked ingame.

Re: A cool president?
I didn't mean to turn this into a Republican vs Democrat discussion, but it's hard to avoid in a political thread. I don't think it's as simple as blaming one party for all of the country's problems. What I do think is that the ultra-conservative ideologues who have taken over the Republican party (since Reagan's… -
Re: Company Rewards and Recognition Ideas
How do you measure this? Add up the polygons of finished pieces? :) The number of shader nodes? The number of frames for finished animations? :) Isn't getting back (money) what you put into the *team* effort good enough? Or maybe your company is another one trying to be shaped like a pyramid scheme pay wise and these are… -
Re: Half life episode 3?
To be real about all of this. I would much rather see Valve go the direction Crytek has been going with their engine tech. "Real-Time". The idea of exporting any asset from you're primary application and having the need to write a .qc script file to compile that model and texture is really rediculous. I use Source at my… -
Re: Marauder II (mech for a Mechwarrior 4 Mod)
i disagree; while in general it's an important principle to consider, i think the more-is-more look is dead nuts on for what the MechWarrior mechs are all about. maybe some -slight- detail pruning is in order, but nothing that drastic. Vig, you make some very good points about considering the practical value of the… -
Re: Say goodbye to your head, wanker!
Agreed, it's not a "haha your class is no longer a threat" but a "hey dumbass you're under attack, first and last warning". [quote=TF2 Blog] Our starting theory was that, for death to be a positive experience, players had to feel like they could have avoided dying if they'd done something different. We found two factors… -
Re: VR Headset - Which one is the best ?
For straight 1st person on the ground, moving forward and back is generally okay, as is moving in the direction you’re looking. The real killer is yaw - ie, turning with the stick as you would in a 1st person shooter. It always feels unnatural and weird, and that way sickness lies. A while back i did some tests with the… -
Re: Maxscript write and read .txt file
also still working on the .txt way of working and i think I almost got it Changed my code a bit, now I get this error: --Runtime error: FileStream cannot create: E:\Max\3ds Max 2016\\ExportPath.txt global MyPath = "no path" maxRootDir = getdir #maxroot -- get max root file path global TextFileName = (maxRootDir… -
Re: Applying Post Process Effects to Canvas
BTW, for anyone who's interested in this, I figured it out! In UDK there is support for Scripted Textures (textures created at runtime by UnrealScript (documentation HERE) So basically, I run the UScript in the volume to populate the SVO, pass the array to the cone-tracer via DLLBind and receive a bitstream array in return… -
Re: Mook (Finished!)
@Tectonic Those samples are great, I'm a huge fan of creature box. I'm going to work on a few concepts for the feet this weekend and hopefully find something that works. @root Thanks so much! I'm really pleased with how rapidly I'm becoming more comfortable with sculpting. I did consider a tail for a while, but for a few…
