Going to do the art test posted by Stoic Games for one of their artist positions. Going to do a game scene of Dalalond, which reads mostly as a Mongola Great Plains / American Great Plains location if most of the game takes palce in a snowy, frozen, Norway like north. [Warning, file is huge.] == Current Update == Final…
Well the crazy thing about Norwegian is the sentence structure is almost spot on with english, so its a matter of switching out words and pronunciation thats the real hard hard part. I read that learning Norwegian is pointless because most people in and around Norway speak perfect english lol I still want to learn russian…
use one of these then: i can get half a week worth of chow down into a regular rucksack. 20 miles? jeez, what kind of country has people living 20 miles from everything... take the damn bus then. walking around the neighbourhood? is there no places to eat in the vicinity of where you live in the US? here in norway, i'm a…
GORGOROTH! Check out this docu on the band, basically just focusing on Gaahl. 3 news reporters go up to his completely isolated home in Norway where he and generations of his family live in complete isolation in the mountains. exciting talks about his devout satanism and the reporters put their foot in their mouths so…
it can't be as bad as in norway, where we have a state-owned channel we have to pay TV-licence for if we can receive a TV signal, it had a monopoly for nearly 50 years. the price is pretty hefty too, about $204 every month. that price is also "to reflect the quality of the service being provided". at least there's no ads…
I only know about shadow maps from lights and I think that is where the shadows are saved to a image, than it's then projected from the light onto the scene like a decal. (You might be talking about something else) Lambert can be useful I think, but say I was doing a realistic rendering I would never use it(Long since I…
The darkness has hit Norway, and I'm feeling unmotivated and tired 24/7, so I haven't been able to make nearly as much progress as I would've wanted to by this point. However, I have been able get SOME work in, and I'm on my way to finish both the compass and the clock for the bracer. The clock is proving to be quite a…
So this environment is inspired by the Vøringfossen waterfall below. The point of this project is to follow up on my prevous one, get more comfortable using various tools including Unreal, Zbrush and Substance and to build a rigorous workflow for environments that have alot of vertical action. Here I have the WM canon that…
adding points for "Britishness" kinda defeats the purpose of attracting international developers who set up a shop and pay taxes and create jobs. Companies go to Canada because it's cheaper, no matter what sort of game want to produce. My former employer Funcom moved to Canada and they brough a LOT of staff from Norway who…
Do you have a child that you try to teach about reading? I don't think many people kept track of it at that age :P A recent thing i heard which i don't know if it's valid or not, in one of the skandinavian countries (Sweeden or Norway i think) they do not want parents to teach their kids how to read or about numbers or…
