I go to NYC 3 to 4 times a month. But I don't consider myself an authority on the place at all. But I will say you won't feel like a tourist there, because half the people around you don't actually live there either, haha, be prepared to have strangers ask you for directions too. I wouldn't say the street food is amazing,…
OK this pisses me off. Why the hell do you have artificial loading time spinny things? Not cool. After waiting for a useless color shifting wallpaper I went to the Portfolio page, which loads for few seconds for FOUR SMALL IMAGES. Then I went to the first image, again loading while there's only a bunch of tiny images. I…
Hey Sync, I found a few other bugs in Beta1 last week, but didnt get the chance to post till now. Maybe some of them are still relevant in beta2? I'll check tonight sense I dont have access to Max2009 on this machine atm. But anyway, here's what they were: The Attach Nodes tool doesn't seem to work if at least one of the…
The point of calculating how much you should charge for work is not to drop all of this information on the client, that would be silly. It's to help you figure out how much you should charge for a single asset. This should absolutely not be driven by gut feelings. You should absolutely 110% have an hourly/day rate that…
Wow this just keeps getting better =) The archway looks really good and more realistic now. I like the building at the end of the street, I can almost see vendor market style stalls down there. I'm not so sure they do that anymore but since you have a pull cart who's to say you can't have fish and veggie stalls =P Crits:…
Yeah so basically, when you perform some function in an app, it has a series of jobs it needs to finish. Let's say an action involves 3 jobs. The program splits these up and sends them to 3 cores. Job 1 and 2 take 2ms to finish and job 3 takes 4ms - core 1 & 2 will be in use for 2ms and will then wait on core 3 to finish…
3.3Ghz+ CPU and more cores is better for rendering so go AMD. I don't care what others say about intel/hyperthreading, a workload split between more workers is more stable IMO. Tom's says so as well. ASUS motherboards have good overclocking options if you're into that. Just make sure the socket type is the same as the CPU.…
The title isn't that great but here it is. I scoured through Google and Polycount's forums but most asked where to sell a game, can I sell a Unity game or how much should I charge per hour. I read the Polycount Wiki for Freelance Rates which was helpful however, I still have questions. I found a web developer who showed…
