Re: Help on game development.
I'm turning the cheek even if he did steal my line... ____________________ <- This is the line where the drama stops. If it spills over this line I say good day to this thread, tut tut GOOD DAY! heh. Now lets try and keep the train on track where ninjas delicately put it. This means no more recapping and quoting the… -
Re: "The City of New Orleans Is Devastated"
There is one thing i know, the last few thousand years have been the calmest seen in record. By record i mean the ice sheets. This will not last forever, and we dont even know what caused it in the past, some of the times we understand, but not all of them. As the planet gets hotter the ocean heats up slowly, like a lake… -

Making Game Assets for my Cartoonish 2.5D Dogfight game
Hello here! I always loved doing 3D art when I was a teenager but then I went to university to learn about brain research and I did not do much 3d modelling for 8-10 years! Two years ago I left research, started a part time job as a data analyst and start working on my own video game in the remaining time. Here a… -
Re: I'm a 3d videogame artist who wants to start a career on 3d miniature sculpting. Where do I start?
You may gain some knowledge that would help you through these online courses, but the cost of the course is a solid chunk of change that could go into a really nice printer and several liters of resin. Option C) Research resin printing and all the caveats thereof, learn to sculpt models to work with resin printing, enjoy… -
Re: Substance Designer Branch via Spline nodes?
I have never seen one that wouldn't cry out-laud "procedural fake". Something in how branches change its flow direction or maybe lack of gravity in consideration. Only one from like 100 seeds looks ok. Same for branching water streams for example or asphalt cracks. In my experience it's better to photo or draw a few… -
Re: Next-gen rendering trends
Your taking small bits of articles and taking them way out of context. I'm dumbfounded that you just said that 4k resolution isn't holding framerate back. Maybe someone can correct me if I'm wrong but most games don't actually support 4k frame rendering, Most games frames are rendered at 1080. Typically they just enable… -
Re: Sony reveals project Morpheus, their VR system for PS4
yes, doubtful that PS4 can render halfway complex visuals in stereo at 1080 while keeping up a decent framerate but perhaps they can leverage something, being theoretically very much in control of their hardware. also they might just drop down a resolution or two for games (contrary to what you may have heard, 720p on the… -
Re: buying a high def television , need advice :)
Think of the resolution rating as you do your computer screen. The rating actually is the second number that is typically shown in computer settings. For instance, a 720 TV is 1280x720 in computer language. To display a computer image properly to the TV, you'd need to supply that resolution to it. The P is for pregressive… -
Re: 3ds max - Auto Separate Mesh Into Material IDs?
you're not drawing the whole mesh multiple times - the GPU only really knows about groups of triangles that have a given material on. Unreal doesn't (naturally) batch materials across actors so even if you were to atlas all 100 materials into a single texture set you would still be paying 1 draw call per separate mesh…
