I posted this on the technical forum and was pointed to this thread. Awesome stuff BTW!! Would someone be able to explain how the the wheat field in Titan Quest was made? I love the way that it swings back and forth when a character runs through it. Is it a rigged model? An animated texture? etc. Here's an example:…
http://www.gametrailers.com/video/review-hd-batman-arkham/722267? hey, just wanted to give a little shoutout to the folks at Rocksteady - congrats on wrapping up a great game youall! can't wait to try it out.:)
@S2Engine Thanks! I followed the info from this thread at crydev: http://www.crydev.net/viewtopic.php?f=326&t=72419 It is mostly the shadow settings in cryengine that need tweaking, I suppose very high spec takes care for the rest. And also, there were no lod-s for the meshes :) works well for custom vegetation..
This generation wont have the mega leap the last one had. Going from painted maps to the ability to having material definition was so massive, it defined the current generation and nothing even in the future will have such a leap. From now until games look exactly photo real it will just be improvements on things that…
BBFirefly Thanks for the heads up. Your right, I should do another outside scene, thinking an urban abandoned building. Gathered some reference material here. ClusterOne I agree the lighting does look very flat; I mainly made this scene as a portfolio piece that could aid me in applying for various similar roles like…
Like r_fletch_r said, its a Solid State Harddrive. They're significantly faster then traditional hard drives (3.5 7200rpm = up to about 117mb/s read speed, current generation SSDs = up to about 550mb/s read speed). Its great being able to load up Photoshop in under 2 seconds, or Maya in under 8, and a lot of in-app stuff…
My vision of "Next-Gen" from a rogue insider. Here it is folks, it's gonna be amazing! (These are honestly just guesses.) That last couple months of optimizing and polishing to actually get the game to run might be reduced....slightly....kinda. But not really. Will actually probably be worse. Why? Everyone will go apeshit…
Let's say it like this, I am traveling a lot and I need to have a mobile device which can handle my work as well as my passion. As 3D Work (for Games) and gaming requires kinda the same hardware I thought I'd just buy a decent gaming laptop with more RAM and a decent cpu to be fine. I got my eye on this one: Schenker XMG…
Sorry it took so long to reply, got stuck at work... The rope is actually easier than it looks, and if it is done right it comes out great. The first thing I did was look at some references to find the type of knot and pattern I wanted to do. I set up splines in the pattern of the weave, leaving space between them since…
