Re: Stuart Baggs dead at 27
Hi Brian, thanks for asking. well - I didn't get any work done on the Thursday - just couldn't think straight. Shock, I suppose. His mother has been in touch and I'm going to produce a DVD for Stuart's family of the video presentation. I'll strip out the graphs and animated bits and it'll be purely a memorial piece. First… -
Re: Physically based rendering in games
According to one of the PDF's in the self shadow blog, Metals are so dense according to physics that no light enters the surface at all. Hence it's diffuse color is black or "0." Something new to my brain is that diffuse color can be thought of as a type of sub surface scattering. When light enters the material and is… -
Re: Environment for mobile
I think first of all, you'd have to decide whether you want to go for the majority of devices or the more high-end ones. In terms of android there's a lot of cheap hardware used that certainly isn't capable of 'console-quality' graphics. If you're going for Unity, there's lots of information available. Here you can… -
Re: portfolio review questions
tynew, not true. Here's a GCtalk thread timestamped 05-28-2007,over SIX years ago: http://forums.cgsociety.org/showpost.php?p=4416507&postcount=23 of the piece stated as 2011. Point is, he perpetrated this behavior for many years over at CGtalk. He's not going to pull the covers over PC users without getting called out.… -
PETROL/BLOOD +2 WEEKS!
Time extension! A few of you have brought up that 8 weeks will be really tight for you to complete your entry for this contest, and we'd hate to see artists not enter under fear of not finishing due to a lack of time. So, rather than extend the timeline towards the end of the contest we've decided to extend the contest… -
Re: North Korea declares "sacred war" on U.S.
I'm not pro North-Korea in anyway, but I do believe the US and the South are creating a political climate in which it would be okay for them to invade or attack. I'm sure they won't tho, as it would be quite disastrous for the South, even if they did win in the end. Don't forget that Seoul is within range from North Korean… -
Re: University this September - questions!
i went to uni at the age of 23 and studied computer game development bsc which covered all areas of development, i chose to specialise in 3d modelling and i'm in my final year. i'm glad i went to uni but wish i'd applied somewhere different as the uni is a bit of a sham and couldn't organise a p*** up in a brewery. saying… -
Re: Monitors and graphic cards for a multimedia school
nvidia 1050ti seems like your best choice. It doesn't require a power cable from psu, so it should work on a dubious 350watt generic power supply assuming that's the case. don't go for plain 1050, a little extra for 1050ti worth the money. you can go for 23" ips with little to no extra cost. 22" can be a bit small for… -
Re: Krita Kickstarter
Give the latest builds a try -- we fixed rotation for the new kind of art pen on Windows and Linux (the Intuos 3 art pen did different things). Also, while the kickstarter is running (more than 50% funded -- but there's a way to go still, so please help spread the word wide and far), we've already started working on some… -
Re: Art degree: How helpful has it been for you?
With what I'm earning now (and I have a job in the industry), it's what I earn after 3 years on the job, or so. With what my friends have payed, too, I'm not sure how realistic that is for most. They way overcharge for a game art degree. It's figuratively ridiculous. I'm currently paying around $400 a month toward student…
