Re: School Success Rate
I think artists like Josh could offer a lot to students/schools. They could at minimum work in the capacity of at least advising to help guide course structure. They are well known, respected, successful and talented. One other I thought I have and I think Ubisoft might be doing this already is to have studios like Epic or… -
Re: [discussion] The L4D2 Boycott
Oh Please, I'm going to be the troll/counter point here and say. Petitions are needed. Customers are our base, and we need to listen to them as well versus a tier down method where we force feed them what we think they want. Who do we think we are? Hollywood? Congress? Valve has exceeded at this IMO (listening). This… -
Re: Are games worth $60?
A classic case of what is wrong with the internet. Everyone thinks they are absolutely right. Are you an economist? Do you understand the mindboggling intricacies of sales psychology? Had Okami been 15-20 euro's cheaper than FFXII, people with no bias who just wanted to buy a game probably would have gone with Okami. After… -

Re: Custom Greentooth Keycaps
Hey there @Cody - I'd like to get into this kind of keyboards for a secondary unit but the market is flooded with options - to a point where it is starting to feel similar to audiophile gear. I would need to find a near-full layout (as I do need the right edge of the right ctrl key to be aligned with the right edge of… -
Re: Spike TV vieo game awards.
This whole show was a big FAT joke. Ghostbusters was up for awards in 3 categories, and they didn't even show the nominations. First for the male performance awards Hugh Jackman just shows up and is like hey thanks for giving me both of these awards without even mentioning who else was nominated, and WTF since when does he… -
Re: Troubles unwrap a simple Cylinder
This came up a while ago when someone went on and on about maya's relax being better than the relax in max. It was a pretty long debate and sadly search doesn't seem able to find it. The conclusion was that they where identical and probably robbed the same code base to build their relax tools. They where identical as long… -
Re: Game art portfolio - feedback appreciated!
@BARDLER Thanks for the feedback. I thought it'd be a good idea to put text in some places to give some background information and provide some context for my graphics, but perhaps I am in the wrong here. All the images are clickable which I thought could account for some smaller sizes but maybe it's not clear enough. I… -
Re: Maya - Normal maps triangle errors
This is a texture resolution issue. Try baking your texture at 2x or 4x and it will go away. This happens because you're not using any hard edges whatsoever, so you have quite extreme gradients in your normals to account for the smoothing of the lowpoly, when you get these small thin triangles, you run out of resolution in… -
Re: Cel Shading Tone?
What Pior says... and further Don't assume that the lighting calculations are a simple multiply. They could be using image based ramp lighting in the screenshots you've posted, or the lighting calculations could be something other than a simple multiply by a scalar. There's no reason you can't mathematically bias the…
