you're doing 3D work on an air or something else? I have a 11'er air too and the nvidia card and core 2 duo care certainly good enough for last gen 3D work (my old Thinkpad T60p I got 2006 wasn't much better), but it still sounds rather cumbersome (with Maya's toolbars & ui taking up a lot of screen real estate). I do some…
I've had to work with numerous pubs that we've required NDAs. It should be a pretty black and white situation of what Brome said... give them a short enough teaser that you physically have the copy of (and show them yourself) if they're that resistant, and then have them sign for a fuller GDD + demo. Either way if you or…
thats the key word daz : dishonesty , something that makes me icky when buying something. And if there is a law for publicited products to be truth in the practicall way they are advertised ( sectio ajdasjd of the cdjfdsjf civil code ) why not the same for games ? if company A is selling product B claiming that it IS…
Hello We are looking to help support UK based start ups, run live projects, run extra curricular activities that sort of thing, no matter what platform or how big or small the idea we would like to help. Maybe we can help you? possibly give you some free studio space for a few months? More than happy for you to pitch for…
Cool project! It seems like you have some AI images on your ref board (not sure since low res). I always recommend people to avoid using "AI references", those are almost always garbage. Especially when it comes to anything robotic/hardsurface. As you said yourself this robot is very iconic, there are tons of references…
The PS2 has always been a dog when it comes to Z-sorting alpha planes. I remember a coder explaining it to me one time. Basically it could be done, but required your engine to do some serious calculation, and that was a trade off - use the cycles to figure out the Z-depth of the alpha planes, or use it for something else…
Cell isn't x86 compatible, it's PPC based RISC processor. Where as most modern desktop processors(well all of them) are x86 CISC based. nVidia is trying to bring ARM based CPU+GPU hybrid to the desktop markets in the near future, but the thing is - x86 isn't compatible, you'd need to have virtualization/emulation of x86 on…
I want to access the reset option inside a custom attribute. I look at the code like this: def=custAttributes.getDef $.modifiers[1] 2 custAttributes.getDefSource def if I try to look for it, I find that I cannot find it! $Character_root_Ctrl.modifiers[1].pmAtt.pmAtts.loadSaveRoll._rst.pressed() I need to find the exact…
Hello! I made a model of my D&D character for my portfolio. The goals I kept in mind for this piece were to: * Complete a game-ready 3D character from scratch, without any base meshes * Learn the hair cards workflow and experiment with manual placement * Convey the core idea of the character, even when the concept is…
Hey Everyone! I am opening this topic to showcase my 3D sketches, and hopefully receive some feedback on them. I will try to credit the concept artist on each sculpt (as far as I know where the image comes from). I created this sculpt the other day, it took around 3 hours or a bit less than that (starting from a sphere). I…
