I'm Still working on the textures of my Bolex camera. I haven't had super much progress the last few days. So far I tweaked my materials a bit, redid most decals and groves on the lenses and dials, added texture to the 2 small windows on the side and added the text/stripes to the first lens and viewfinder. Still need to…
http://epicgames.com/community/2012/12/mike-capps-retiring-to-the-epic-board/ It’s hard to believe I’m writing these words, but here goes! After 10 crazy and wonderful years, I’m handing off my current presidential duties at Epic, and transitioning into an advisory role as well as remaining on the Epic board of directors.…
Allow me to elaborate; In Canada many jobs that are relevant to the IT requires at least 3 years worth of experience. People that I have come across really make such experience that guarantees them an interview call, otherwise they wont call. Same experience that I refer to as a lie because they dont know anything about…
No, I'm not talking about creating fields of solar arrays or massive wind farms to power entire municipalities. I'm talking about putting small residential-friendly systems that each power a home or office separately. Solar and wind will never replace nuclear or coal as a centralized system, but they can serve as a…
Your garage environment is a reasonable first
effort for a self-taught artist. There are a variety of different
considerations to make when presenting your work, but when showcasing an

Asset Team - Design a game (base concepts and what the gameplay will hold) Together - Plan out how the mechanics will work and discuss…
Site looks nice Take the user directly to the portfolio. Home page is unnecessary. I like that I can click through the whole portfolio with the current gallery setup. However, it buries your pieces into this format. I was surprised to see whole UDK levels after a few simple props. One argument here is ordering your pieces…
There's a lot of lack of refinement going on with the scene, something that could be fixed by using references. The action in the scene is definitely there. For example, why is Darth Maul's body only pitch black? Where is his robe? I only see his silhouette. What I'm reading from everything is that it was a rush job…
We use 3ds at our studio and we spend all day complaining and dealing with crashes. My max has a bug where if I move an edge, it crashes... has happened across several scenes for several days completely unrelated to each other. It constantly crashes, and is so unbelievably bloated, as has been stated here. A little…
Atlas Shrugged reader spotted. Are you really going to pull some market based capitalism bullshit about rational actors here. Why are you pre supposing what he says is wrong, and that he's just being whiny? People with actual experience can tell you that situations like this are not uncommon. I've worked at 7 plus studios…
