Re: Best/innovative RPG games.
I don't know if it would be considered an RPG or not, but the game that introduced me to some features commonly found in RPGs (In-depth dialogue choices, character creation, open explorable game world, open-ended story) was Star Flight, moreso the Sega Genesis version than the DOS counterparts though. SO it always holds a… -
Re: Prop Workflow
First, I don't think hi-to-lo baking is "standard" for characters. It is what most tutorials show, but there is plenty of working artist here who don't use that as their go-to workflow. To me, the main benefit of working hi-to-lo is for concepting. If you aren't crystal clear on the final design, it's good to just keep… -
Re: First Model - Feedback Greatly Appreciated.
yes i mean to seperate the mesh what is your aim with this character? is it for a game of just to pose it... will it be animated? if you want it in a game and it hast to be very low resolution i would advise you to learn normal mapping and baking a high poly onto a low poly. if you have to have one mesh and do have a… -
Re: Pixelatedkiwi's hand-painted art thread
Thanks for the compliments guys! Much appreciated :) @Cremuss No worries always happy to answer questions. I came from a traditional background where I painted a lot of Warhammer figurines and model kit-sets so I tend to have a more painterly approach to maps. For the bulk of my painting I generally flatten down my layers… -
Re: Applying to SAIC. Feed back on Statement Of Purpose
This is a big wall of text, make it easier on the eyes before anyone can critique the rest of it. There are actual college writing rules but I forgot what they were called - look into that. do this: Art is my freedom; an unbound sanctuary where I can thrive and express my concepts and ideas. The world around me has been… -
Re: DJ Hero? FAIL FAIL *RANT* :E
So similar? Similar in what? Did the above DJs not show that this a "bit" more varied than modifying existing songs? This isn't a wedding "DJ" or the 80s. A turntable scratch operates with hand movement. A very Analog function. The on/off allow the amplification of the sound and EQ functions. Play an electric guitar… -
Re: Game Jobs: How long to wait before looking again?
I think a good rule of thumb would be "1 product cycle" or "1 shipped title". Of course some places languish on a single title for years and people come and go. But I think you need to look at the reason(s) why you want to leave and do other places actually offer what you're looking for or are you chasing the fame train?… -
Re: The Chronicles of Narnia
LS:Every celtic historian , researcher and purveryor of the mythology all talk about the christian scribes integrating the old mythologies into the good book and toning town and then twisting their meaning as a necessary means to the end of converting those uninterested in converting to the new faith. Peter Beresford Ellis… -
Re: Medal of Honour: Airborne
i enjoyed the demo, but then i haven't really played the huge glut of WWII FPS games, so it might just be lack of perspective. i like what they've done with the leaning/peeking tied to ironsight aiming; that's an elegant refinement. the weapon advancement scheme seems rather enjoyable, too, albeit a feature that pulls you… -
Re: EA Louse or Mythic Rant or EA Rant
I'm shocked... truly I am. This seems like par for the course, typical corporate douche-baggery. Or if you ask anyone with a MBA, they'll say this is "perfectly sound business practices", and by that they mean, "in the mad grab for cash no one saw us bury the bodies". Recapping his rant: Yet this guy stays? It's a tough…
