Welcome. You seem to be off to a decent start. Your avatar is especially nice for a noob. I don't think you'll have any problems here. The guys around here are very good about lending quality advice. Just remember the basic manners that apply to any message board. 1. Don't start too many threads. This is a classic noob…
The idea of national sovereignty raining supreme is quite an odd one, in it's purest form it is outside non reaction to internal affairs of other nations. In a democracy it makes sense, this leaves a government theoretically solely to the will of its own people (how often this is true is a topic for another day) The…
Congrats ! Lead already :o It really depends of your type of contract and status. Also taxes and stuff vary a lot from country to country + cost of life. I don't know which percentage of taxes an american citizen has to pay, but that would be interesting to know. Don't want to "spit in the soup" :p, but french companies…
Alberto Rdrgz: thanks man....if you like the belly shirt wait till you get a load of his tramp stamp :D Di$array: thanks very much....I guess that I just have an affinity with the floating evil minions of French millitary figures....how could I have not figured this out sooner :D Buckles-check, I will get those sorted, at…
Probably the boundary for the pen/touching sensing area. Either the blank area on the right is for scrolling touch gestures, or a place to rest your wrist when drawing so as to not throw off the touch sensing. Very likely Wacom's extensive amount of patents related to tablet technology, along with entrenched brand…
Hey! Time to update! I've finished lowpoly, UV's, bake and made some color schemes. By far I've encountered two problems which took my update time bit longer - first one is that original Xayah model in League have two separate UV's: one for main body and another for the wing, you can tell that judging by Daniel Orive's…
It is probably not the best place to ask this but since we are talking about working abroad I will ask here: As it's known it is very hard to get to the States, how about Canada? Has anybody from Europe (EU) moved to Canada and how hard was that? I did research it and could only find information about how would it work if…
Are you 100% sure the UVs are well welded there and the smoothing groups correct? Well, if you are, then pass to the next point: Each application has its own way to compute and use the tangent space. If you generate the maps in a XXXX application but you preview it in a YYYYY application you need a way to match the tangent…
What you ought to do is move out of toronto. It is the worst place for game development in Canada at the moment. Come to montreal and learn french while you're at it. Don't get me wrong George Brown is a good school graduated from there ( and I can't speak for centennial) but the game dev scene for a decent job that…
Another small update: I was finding that I just couldn't get close enough with my macro shots to get the information I need. I decided to purchase a microscope: Normally when you think of microscopes you probably think of slides. Wafer thin slices of specimens with a backlit image. That's certainly useful for me and I have…
