Re: [Technical Talk] - FAQ: Game art optimisation (do polygon counts really matter?)
eric hosts that gamedesign paper, too. I am sure we are just minutes or hours away he posts the links again you get a fixed set of vertex attributes. Think positon,color,normal + some extras like UV channels, tangent stuff. Simply due to pipelining each vertex has no knowledge about the triangle he is part of nor other… -
Re: Roll your own engine, roll your own problems
Speaking as the Hobbiest Group on MSN I would like to defend our decision to write our own engine and for clarification, we aren't a "hobbiest" Group at this point, we are a fully licensed Limited Liability Corporation in the state of Indiana. I prefer Independent Game Studio 1.) The game we are currently developing came… -
Re: Modding counts as portfolio?
What you describe is a classical leveldesigner. I can imagine some people would hire environment artists as leveldesigners (because they do not know better), but a env. guy is a 3D modeler by default, and would not have any leveldesign experience at all. Map flow, balance, line of sight, paths and patterns, thats the… -
Re: Tricky decision
Are you sure you know the difference between leveldesign and environment art ? Leveldesign is something that is pretty niche and a gamedesign job, mainly filled with people that have been mapping in their youth, creating maps in editors with other peoples content mainly, often strategy games or shooters. Its about paths,… -

Age of Conan dungeon i did.
Game, company and everything else aside here´s a dungeon i puzzled together with pre-existing assets (and the help of a gamedesigner of course). So none of that is mine. Pretty much just the look and feeling. ;) Anyway. I was browsing the net and heard about some new dungeon being released for the game in the upcoming… -

Re: Animation sharing with scaling?
I´ve scripted something from an Mel-Book together, basicly you define scaling in the script and the script bake the new scaling with new clean translation, rotation and scaling. Mostly i build my gamerigs without a global scaling, because in my case its wasted time. However came out gamedesigner to me and wanted some… -
Re: Do you ever think of making an impact on the world as an artist?
I don't think you can make an impact in the video game industry. Or at least you gonna have to work on indie games, cause let's face it, even if people can enjoy and be inspired by games, if you don't try to break rules, get the fuck out of your comfort zone, and try to make things evolve, you just are a robot that do your…
