Hello! I'm posting here on behalf of Team Chivalry, the mod team that created the Half-Life 2 mod Age of Chivalry. We are looking to expand our team, with positions open for 2D artists, 3D modelers, and animators. Before I get into specific job descriptions, let me tell you a bit about our mod. Age of Chivalry is a first…
Hey guys, I am trying to have my vehicle play an animation when it fires my projectile. What do I need to do for an animation to be triggered when firing my gun on the vehicle? But what script do I edit to tell what animation to play when firing? Here is my UTVehicle_Cannon.uc file: /** * Copyright 1998-2011 Epic Games,…
I first picked up Blender two weeks ago, with absolutely no experience in 3D modeling. The reason was that I really wanted to make custom models for the game "Team Fortress 2". That, and the program was free. Though Blender's interface was daunting, to say the least, a slew of tutorials have helped me make a little bit of…
Sonic, requirements will keep going up, mostly tho, only on the artistical side of things. All the shader and normalmap baking stuff is easy to learn.

The "oh you're a crazy soccer mom" rhetoric is vaguely familiar of the "cigarettes don't cause cancer" campaigns the same idiots bought into for decades and now love to sue the tobacco companies over. Part of me thinks people want to remain ignorant and fearful because there could be a big reward and its comforting to hear…

HAH, some people need to read the date stamp on the original post! Thanks for the well wishes anyway, things are pretty awesome right now - I'm actually tossing around the idea of either starting a small studio, taking a year off to just bathe in art like a filthy swine or getting an MBA so I can become a manager that…
I just wanted to write this and share my experience for those who are having a difficult time landing a job or need some inspiration to "stay on target".
