Re: DVD9 enough for next gen?
You cannot always switch discs. It's ok for a game with levels, where you start in one place and never go back there. It is not fine for single player games. I know of several developers, working on several games that have already had to downsize the game to get it to fit. The article is wrong is one MAJOR assumption - it… -
Next gen problems(normal map)
I have been posting for help on other forums to aid me through the process of learning next gen texturing and modeling. However, getting a response is taking days! So I thought polycount is kinda' the main place to get fast help. My first go at next gen/normal mapping. But my normal map doesn't look like other normal… -
Next Gen Console Burn In Issues
Just curious if anyone has heard of any movement in the games industry to standardize game features to assit with reducing screen burn in. I say Next Gen consoles since older gen consoles were geared toward SD games on CRTs. Most HD capable sets in home are plasma right now, and I personally just burned in my FF XII life… -

As the PS5 and XBox2 are now widely talked about being in development at particular studios with what might be a 2019 or more likely 2020 release date, I was wondering if we could start getting on down to some technical performance chit chat. From an artistic point of view if we can see what we should be gearing ourselves… -
Low Poly optimization: Speed/Quality balance for next-gen production
A question for the Character Artists out there. On current-gen projects, low poly modeling has been the fastest step of the production pipeline. The most straight forward one, while High-Poly sculpting/modeling and texture painting would take usually longer. With the next-gen specs and some new tools, such as Marvelous… -
