Of course dev budgets aren't infinite, but we're talking about Ubisoft here, the same company that will happily waste a shitload of money on multiple needless CGI trailers. The fact is AAA development is insanely bloated and for the sake of the long term health of the industry consumers need to be given a product that…
To level with you, we've got nothing to announce about release platforms right now. We're developing "Our Ghosts of War" in Unreal so we can export to PC, PS4, and the Xbox One. The Nintendo NX should be compatible with Unreal as well. We're still weighing all our options. It's just too early to say anything. Releasing…
Ah that's another great point about liquid cooling. Despite my discouragement I would like to do a water cooled pc build one day, but that's purely the hobbyist in me wanting to push hz on a processor. I just don't think I'd do it in a computer I'd like to use daily without any stability/reliability issues. If you're…
I don't really see the benefit of reducing a 500 triangle car to 270 tris. I feel like you are letting yourself get caught up in extremely tight technical details and making things difficult for yourself for no reason. Making a cool 500 triangle car? Cool! Feeling like you have to half tri count to theoretically match…
well I sure hope not they cram every character into 1 episode. That's like 2 - 3 minutes per character, or less? I find the back and forth already annoying. There's maybe 1 longer scene of dialog per main character and cut, next. Even in the books the chapters offer more than that. Personally I don't have a problem not…
Yes, and unfortuantely we still can't track down the cause of this. =( It seems like most people do not have the problem however and depending on your hardware, really mostly your video card you can get upwards of 20 million triangles loaded in, or perhaps even more, but with really high triangle counts dynamic lights…
Thanks for the positive comments about the work:) Well...I am the Academic Director for the Los Angeles campus:) I used to be the main demo teacher...students would have me for the last year of there life. I was the one that got their portfolio's up to snuff. The Los Angeles program is the biggest ( over 270 students ) and…
You can get this computer off newegg for under $700: AMD 64 X2 6000+ 3.0GHz Socket AM2 ASUS SLi-Ready Mobo 2GB Mushkin DDR2 800 Geforce 8800GTS 640MB My personal suggestion is, if its for gaming, shy away from Quad core right now, thats an extra $100+ for something that isn't going to be used. If you have the money, go for…
Hey guys, I'm currently working on a scene using World Machine and UDK Landscape to generate mountain ranges, so I thought I'd revive this thread. I can also answer a few of the questions you guys had. The flickering/disappearing has to do with the default placement of the landscape when it's generated. If you look in the…
You peeps shouldn't be so mean. I think this game looks quite alright really. Especially seeing as some students were involved in the production. It's clear they spent quite a lot of time and effort on it, so sure, they probably didn't spend 100 000 hours on that character or whatever it now was, but look here... they even…
