So, I work on one workstation at the office, plus a home desktop and a home laptop. I'm trying to figure out a setup to make working on projects on multiple systems more efficient. Currently, I've got Relative Paths turns on, and some common textures live in a Content folder inside of my project folder on each machine;…
Schell Games is a highly talented group of artists, programmers, producers, and game designers led by game industry veteran Jesse Schell. We're the largest full-service education and entertainment game development company in the United States. Since 2002, we've worked with world-class clients and partners to create…
you can't have two roots to a tree - that's just silly and i expect its actually a misunderstanding the programmer needs to control part of the skeleton in code - that means they need to be able to find the root of that section - there are many ways to achieve this and they have chosen one (arguably the easiest is by an…
Hit a few month snag with covid/depression/loneliness the usual human roadblocks, school is proving to be a lot easier than I was expecting so I'll take it as an opportunity to resume finding "hills to die on" as it were. I had my first true taste of success by being flown out to multiple places involving the things I've…
we are a small team, and we need some 3D artists/animators and some programmers/coders. (bonus points if you know how to make isometric assets and characters, and if you can make spell and area effects) trimetric tiles are what we are aiming for message be and I'll show you! 3D character animator (Blender rigging…
Okay, so I've added the bottom stabilizer fin to the bottom of hull to break the shape a little more plus added a very small prop in it for looks. I also pretty much finished the top porthole gear system. It hopefully conveys that it unlocks the seal on the top hinged portion of it-albeit, the locking system is inside the…
(I am using Adobe Photoshop CC on Windows 7) When I press the Alt key, the top 'File, Edit, Image, Etc...' bar underlines the first letter of each word. The beeping sound only happens for me when I press the Alt key and then press any button on the keyboard without clicking my mouse. What I did was I went to "Change System…
Yeah the projection paint thing is probably too big of a commitment - plus Ryan could work on that for a year and then Adobe could release the exact same functionality. . . The tiling canvas view, on the other hand, would be universally useful to texture artists, and is a much smaller project. . . One thing I see a big…
The point is that this kind of planning is old fashioned. It assumes that the texture resolution on disk is going to be the same as the texture resolution on screen. This is not the case with a streaming system. The streaming system in unreal loads an objects bounding box and uses the relative texture size based off that.…
Thanks all! I'm really glad you liked it. And also thank you Ultra for that feedback on my 2D work, alas these days I only get the chance to do 2D when texturing :-P Hawken, we're actually using an open source engine: Open Scene Graph. But we will be using real pixel shading and different shaders, I guess the result will…
