I've seen the same thing, particularly with Autodesk code. 99% of all Mel scripts and even their python code utilizes camelCase for variables and functions. What's interesting is that this is counter to PEP8 guidelines (no camelCase for either, only…
I'm working on a "remaster" of an old-school dungeon crawler called "Dragon Bane 2" as a personal project. The development is completed, but needs upgraded, static 3D models for two wall sets -- a town and a dungeon. The game can be played in either 2D mode or 3D mode, and the 2D artwork is completed, so the 3D art…
