Re: Village Environment (WIP)
Yeah I need to get around to revisiting the roofs at some point. They definitely are a wee bit too flat atm. The diffuse for the grass was simple to make, just a few brush strokes with some alternating colors. I used to do all of my painting in photoshop but I found it to be kind of a pain having to constantly resample… -
Re: Zbrush 4R7
In many ways Zmodeler is very similar to the Zbrush retopo tools. Artists with a very high level of "Zbrush tolerance" (=not bothered by the cumbersome subtool system, the slightly irritating navigation scheme, and many other little things) will probably power through it just fine and manage to produce great stuff with of… -
Re: EA taking more steps to monopolise the game market
[ QUOTE ] Since when does it take a licence to make a good sports game? [/ QUOTE ] It doesn't. It takes a license to make a MARKETABLE sports game that people will actually buy. [ QUOTE ] Point being: it's about the gameplay, not the names of the teams. Hell...Speedball 2 still beats most of those sportsgames in terms of… -

Re: Another computer build thread

Re: WIP Garage
Looks like you're off to a decent start. Crits: - The power rarely stays uninterrupted when disasters hit. If the disaster doesn't cut the power the energy officials might shut it down until its safe to turn it back on. - Cars don't float. Well technically they do for 1-2min max when car falls into the water. But the… -
Re: Near death experiences you never even noticed
Not as amazing as Ror's or Sledgy's, but I once almost electrocuted myself to death. I was working in what is a converted machine/woodworking shop at my college, and we had been priorly warned that there was more juice running to this building due to the nature of the machinery we had for use. Outlets on walls were normal,… -
Re: Style down the tube?
for pc we have the trouble of having so much mixed hardware, ie several gpus on the market from different generations. Which means if you want to do less work and still reach most you will use less fancy shaders, so it runs on older hardware too. Also xbox1 and ps2 are as well quite limited. the real jump we will see with… -
Re: Earth Hour 2008
[ QUOTE ] Now if company's like Macdonald's and others on the list would buy solar cells and put them on top of their buildings that would be meaningful. Even better is if they would pick a few and outfit them with enough solar cells the take them off the grid entirely. [/ QUOTE ] 100% behind you, but I'd take it further.… -
Re: Advice for finishing this up
It's coming along nicely. Awesome progress! You're not going to waste my time are you =) I held back from vomiting out a ton of lighting tips and tricks before, often it falls on deaf ears. You sir are not deaf! w00t! If you are using a volume light effect on the center spot light, under the Spotlight Parameters rollout,…
