Re: 33 yo. Too late? Best learning path?
I started my first games job at 32 and that was in 2003. The thing is if you want to do it just do it, why should you worry about age. 5 years prior to that I had an interview at LCP( london College of printing) for their games design course and they said I was too old so I should n't expect a career in games at my age :/… -
Re: War Torn Town
Are you thinking WW2 war torn? Because typically before any street fighting started, the area was bombed and shelled to death.

Then as whoever was driven out of the city they shelled and bombed it trying to slow down or retake the… -
Re: How to Handle Active Discouragement
So, here is a bit of my story and how it worked out. I went to Full Sail and graduated there in 2003. I lived in Florida and tried to break in to the industry for 4 years with no luck.

Re: Sci-Fi Assault Rifle - Constructive Crits [Year 2 University]

Re: America's Army Game v2.7 Images
Nice stuff, thanks for sharing. You say you weren't looking for crits, but they're always useful to push you when you think you're satisfied with your work. There's no resting on ones laurels in this game ;-) I don't really feel like the low specs are contributing to the character issues. They're very cleanly and well… -
Re: Castlevania: Lord of Shadows
To the people that say it's a God of War clone.. Castlevania: Lament of Innocence came out in 2003...God of War came out in 2005. Look at gameplay from Lament of Innocence. You've got everything that was in GOW, the dodge mechanic, the swinging blades of Kratos is exactly like the whip in LOI. There's weak attacks and… -
Re: The Game Artist's Guide to Maya
[ QUOTE ] I'm assuming at this point the reason is that I'm running Maya 5 and these files will only work with Maya 6 (full version or PLE). [/ QUOTE ] Can't use PLE, has to be full version of Maya.
