Blimey, now that's a wintery blast from the past! Welcome back frosty :) -
Re: Anyone in Montreal need a roomie?
Hey grats, welcome to the studio. They're not putting you up in a temporary place? A popular place to live is the Plateau area, but the rent can be a little high then usual. Neighbourhoods that are close to Gameloft are Mile End and Rosemont. I live in Outremont which is also close, however I take a 15min bus to work.… -
Re: Looking for feedback on my first portfolio piece!
Thanks guys! About the complexity of the scene I can explain why it is or looks that way: the girl is actually a yuki-onna (a spirit of a dead woman that doesn't look really ghostly from what I've read) so she is related to her tomb, she's not really casting a spell it's more of a symbol that represent the winter and her… -
Re: Ground Zero: A Post-Apocalyptic RPG
I understand your sentiment, there are so many ridiculously ambitious startup projects that never amount to more than a grocery list of features and a few weapon renders. The architecture of this project actually isn't that complex. We're basically building several simple game systems on top of each other that function in… -
Re: Job Hunting question
@ bounchfx - What you're saying makes sense. One of the companies I followed up with awhile back said to keep them in the loop with whatever updates I make. I'm assuming they meant major updates that would make them re-evaluate me and considering it takes a good 1-3 months to finish a new project, an update notification… -

Re: Exploded Mesh or not exploded mesh?
This is backwards, if you're going to do one but not the other you would explode bake for normals(to avoid intersecting issues) and not for AO(to retain inter-mesh-chunk ao). Though I explode bake for normals, ao and then do a second ao bake from the lowpoly to get that inter-mesh-chunk ao. Why? Anything that is going to… -
Re: Sapped,drained,tired and out of energy.

One of the things i love is history and more specifically world war 2. Because of the shitty winter i have not gotten a chance to fully explore Berlin and i… -
Re: MMORPG'S- What would you look for?
WoW having, being a seamless world, the least amount of loading screens is really a plus and it definitley gave a 1 up to immersion. Yup, indeed. The fact that WoW has so much to offer in terms of extra content (Not a big part of the game but, as you said, it really helps players to stay hooked. I mean, look at WoW's… -
Re: [WIP] Med Fantasy level in Cryengine
Overall, I feel there is too much contrast. I'd reduce the saturation of the brown, add a bit of dirt to the white, and reduce the direct lighting a little while boosting the ambient a bit. I'd also reduce the saturation of the mountains considerably while giving them a faint blue tinge to be more realistic and increase…
