So next I put in some fabric texture as can be seen in the image and then some skin texture, which can't be seen here. Then I started polypainting: I layered several shades of colour over each other as well as deep reds and blues to try and create an uneven natural skin feel rather than just solid colour. I then tried to…
I don't have time to make a model. I think you'll find it difficult to find people that do. I can however share the Table of Contents of the Art Standards Guide for game I'm currently working on, Lucky's Tale. The whole document is about 20 pages, but it helps so much. Especially when we hire someone new. All their…
I agree with art direction being what's noticed. While it is odd to start hearing casual gamers throw terms around like 'bump mapping' and such, I still think the thing that attracts gamers the most graphically is consitent and attractive styles to the game. Some companies out there use the technology to aid in the…
Right on guys, tried to take suggestions into account and resculpted parts of that boot. It's still different from the concept - I sortof went for the riveted, new batmobile look with sharp tank triangles. Also added the generic (not sculpted!) giro I want to reuse all over the place. This actually proved to be very…
Sure it can work, but you have to design systems to make it work. What is that new MMO being ported from Asia, using CryEngine? It has a very robust trading system, that FORCES players who wish to advance in the endgame to behave similiarly to the way that a real trader would behave. They have to choose trading routes, and…
This is kind of a random ramble and I am talking mostly out of my own opinion but I hope my own input helps you on your project! Good luck on your development! Incoming massive Essay... Be wary about how you design your levels, you want to be able to let the players identify their own position based on their surroundings.…
I really do understand why some people stand up when they see characters that are oversexualised and I agree that it is still an issue that still needs to be talked about. Tho as I character artist I think that women (and men!) body are BEAUTIFULL. Women's body have such amazing natural flow of curves and as character…
I have a 2d Tile system setup and I am not sure if I did it correctly since I am unable to have an entity traverse the grid properly. C++ I have 2d array of tile objects. The tile object has a vector full of entities to draw at that tile. due to this, the entities contained in a tile are unaware of their own XY position.…
I dont think people dislike cutscenes in general. Look at skyrim start for a bad example. Sitting only with the hands shackled in a carriage. Hell why i cant stand up and run? Because Storywise you must undergo Character creation and a dragon attack. Solution: So what! Let the player stand up, run and he becomes a arrow in…
...and the worst community in the history of gaming, apparently. I was surprised when I tried LoL and actually had a decent experience. Out of a dozen or so games, I've only had about 2 people act like jackasses. I played one game of HoN and it was non-stop abuse of everyone from everyone. I'm already uninstalling it.…
