Re: Autodesk to go subscription-based only
Seems the bandwagon & speculation is strong on this one aha! I think it could work, if autodesk pulled their collective thumbs out of trying to dominate the market and did something useful with the software. It's wishful thinking to maintain plugin compatibility for the streaming updates. I mean in a studio environment,… -
Re: Practicality vs Aesthetics
You guys are wayy overthinking this shit. man. I never had to think this much about a character wow. lol I love you Jesse, but damn my man, ^_^ Aestethic, practical. If it looks cool I reckon its practical for my use. I guess common sense help? If i think this uge ass armor on is shoulder looks So great even if in the real… -
Re: [Portfolio] t4paN - Alex Tapanaris - character artist
pior: I've been wanting to start on a traditional art/life drawing workshop sometime soon, I'm now going to do it sooner rather than later to work on my 2d skills. I start my models without much concepting and I realize this is not the best way to go around things, plus it shows in the pieces I've produced so far.… -
Re: Hallucinations about Normal mapping
The reason this isnt really done is pretty simple. If you're simply painting a bump map like that you dont get the difference between the highres and low res, so no compensation for the smoothing. So what you would end up is a low poly model with vertex shading and a hand painted bump on top of it. Which in general looks… -

Re: Facebook, Twitter and the like..
@ oXYnary - I'm pretty find-able online as it is, and I guess FaceBook is like painting yourself yellow, run around like a maniac and calling yourself Banana Man. Linked-In was hard. I spent two days on the decision, and all I use it for is work. @ Sandro - Going to indie forums and blogs might be the best way. Kinda like… -
Re: TSM's models
Yeah listen to the two ass clowns that posted before me. Ott has always been Greys bear type lover and plus he is the top. All joking aside yeah man your stuff is starting to come together and by adding small variances like suggested it really helps push it even more. Polycount is by far one of the open and honest forums… -
Re: The TESTER - PSN
Given what the "reality" of game design is, I don't think anyone would be interested in ANY reality show based on it. Game design is hard-ass work and long-ass hours. That is the reality of it. And that just doesn't make entertaining TV. It would be funny to see a fictional account of a game design studio. I imagine most… -
Re: Life choices : crappy job + art at side or any other job + art on the back burner
I had an interesting talk with Del a longass time ago. Being a part time teacher for an American school, there's a bit of perspective I want to share: Imagine you had $250,000 dollars sitting in your bank account right now. Then say to yourself "I want to spend every single penny of this, on an EDUCATION! What do you… -
Re: Questions about PC build
i5 or i7, i3's are pretty underwhelming. 500watts should be enough power unless your going duel gpus in the future or using a more power hungry gpu like a 980. if you want you could save by going for 16gb's of ram to start and upgrade if you feel it would help. My rig is a few years old now, and 16gb has been working fine…
