I still feel consoles are better. My ps2 still works to this day and its something that I can keep because I own it and it brings back good memories. Having something internet based isn't something u can own. What about the games? I am not sure whether u can have an original copy of the games. I understand this is a move…
I just hope someone (The Foundry, perhaps) would do something innovative to make rigging next-gen characters a streamlined experience, esp. for UE4/Unity devs. Just like how we've got autoretopo options these days, I just wish we'd finally start seeing some auto-rigging options for game dev--or at least, better…
It feels to me like there is too much noise overall in the texturing. Like the overall frequency of noise is too uniform. All of the textures have noise on them it seems and it detracts from the overall scene for me. I know you havent done a proper lighting pass yet. But look at any good game level and you'll find that…
I have a few questions guys. So now that we have found out how much we need to charge or goal salary, do we charge these rates even to indie devs working with engines like Unity? I see lots of "indie rates available" artists. So a normal week is 5 days 40 hour work week, say we have a lenient deadline, if none at all, do…
Hey, is it solipsistic in here, or is it just me? I agree with a lot of people here; aesthetic is more important than having the most realistic graphics. And aesthetic is only a small part of why I truly enjoy a game. In fact, I've only played four games all the way through (the main story) in recent years. Journey,…
Yeah it's really a catch 22 situation; The guy regularly chats with major business both marketing, gaming ect. He's linked in everywhere in Liverpool. He said that he is going into a game dev cycle when he get's backing- talks are still going on. He doesn't have the man power so he'll have to hire a few people and possible…
Food for thought ... it was suggested to me this morning that if Hillary runs, the Republicans are likely to avoid polarizing the female vote against them by fielding Rice. Either way we'd get our first woman President, but the Republicans would successfully one-up the Dems by using not just a woman, but a black woman.…
[ QUOTE ] You release you game on the console then your not gonna have the problem of me and people like me stealing your games. [/ QUOTE ] Not a bad idea, and that is where the industry has shifted. It's like a mass exodus from the PC market. MS seeing it hurt PC gaming has launched the "Games For Windows" campaign. I…
Hello guys. This is a druid character development, from a gnomon class and a side help from skillful huntsman from Art Center. 35 minutes tonal drawing for the portrait and some extra minutes derping with gouache. Scanned the costume design and cleaned it a little in PS to get rid of the fuzzy lines from the pencil.…
I haven't actually used them, but I seriously doubt Spine is better than Spriter. As I understand it from reading the blogs, Spine was created because Spriter was stuck in development for a massive amount of time. The Spine dev got sick of waiting for it to get released, and decided to rush out their own derivative. I read…
