That Adam Savage video is super awesome. I find my obsessiveness to only surface when I'm in a comfortable situation or facing some other responsibility. If I have no one and no work, no school involved in my life - that is, no immediate responsibility other than stressing over survival and seeking out those things…
Thanks again everyone for the kind words, really appreciate it :) Sorry for the bit of a delay, work got in the way but I got around to getting 3 wireframe screen shots of some of the collapsing Sandlantis stuff I did as requested. I will take a look back through some of my level files and see if there are any that would…
Some are a bit old, or are bug reports that have been fixed already. Also I think I use the app a bit differently thatn then now. But still! Topogun1.3 notes-ALWAYS SAVE BEFORE HITTING THECTRL KEY !!!-NEVER CTRLSHIFT TO ADD SELECTION !!!-Load reference-Right click switches between move mode and creation mode-Viewport…
I was shot 4 times on the way to work and 2 on the drive back home, I'd have to say its getting better. Honestly there is a potential to make some good money here but its not like you walk down the street and trip over those types of positions. Beware of the grass is always greener syndrome. Also I would seek out advice…
chrizz1 -- totally dude, it's all influencial and there are plenty of examples of film makers (like Charlie Kaufman) who understand this and chose to make benevolent products. also, i'd like to state that i dont have a problem with violence in games in such a simplistic sense. i think that violence is *important* in our…
I went to school in New Brunswick (and regret 90% of it...) but have worked in Vancouver for a few years and have met lots of people who have gone to a variety of schools in the area. I'll second, or third or fourth the thoughts on Ai. Though, for me it's just all second hand information. The general consensus is that it's…
I might have mispoken about getting bored with hard surface. I really like it and there's definitely A LOT of room for improvement in my case. I'm nowhere near the level of people whose art I follow. I just came to a certain point in my learning curve where I don't learn as much and as fast as I used to and I think that is…
MOp- I'm using a small sketch book with like. almost like a 6 x 9 inch paper size. The sketch book is a borders Bookstore sketchbook. Has a velvety cover to it, and its like 4.99. :P And for anyone whos wondering. The brown color is a Brown pencil lead. .9 mm leads. Its almost like color pencil, but very hard. Not the best…
Can't hide from the center anymore, but I have some forms below that inspire me to NOT deform the clean forms into skewed elastic ones. So I add some edging, detail the center a little and throw in some eye piece cylinders I had from a kitbash layer. I also knock out a ceiling piece, nothing too fancy other than the clean…
OK I figured out what the export between MAX and CryEngine is for Cameras - I'm gonna make a proper write-up of this at some point but this might be helpful for you already: The CryEngine expects Collada files to not use a unified Matrix and to have FOV values in y-FOV (the height of your screen is important, not the…
