Re: Mass Effect scene
That is some nice concept art :] I think you have basically everything in place :) but here are some off things: Proportions here and there. You made the space between the desk and wall too wide. That also makes the shelves too wide, so the props are not filling them correctly. The shelves are also a tad high off the… -
Re: Need some feedback for my portfolio please~~
Not a fan of the outlines. The're very bright and distract from the background, and the brokenness doesn't add anything except distraction. I was gonna say that all your images are too dark, but really you should just remove the alphatransparency. Instead, have something like a medium gray outline that becomes a wider… -
Contests and Prizes...
I have been thinking about alternative ways to attract high poly modellers to build assets for my Quake 4 project. I've noticed that contests tend to be pretty popular and thought that I might be able to catch more bees with some honey (money) Our project is a non-profit project so it is impossible to pay a professional… -
Re: How hard would it be to recreate these visual effects?
Imho convert to 8 bit could also help. It's a palette color, with 8 bit and 256 colors from what i can see. And i am not so sure if this image wasn't compressed to save some space and performance instead of making it looking good. Sometimes in game development you sacrifice the look for performance reasons. For the second… -
Re: Carmack leaves Id
I have a somewhat different point of view on this one; in my opinion, Carmack has two main strengths. One is to find new and sometimes quite disruptive rendering technology. He usually gets these ideas by absorbing an incredible amount of information from seriously varied sources; from siggraph research papers to airplane… -
[PhyreEngine] Sci-fi racer

As the engine is completely new for us the team is a bit code heavy. There are two artists, me and an other guy. So for the… -
Art Test?
I know it might sound like I'm jumping to conclusions but I would love to hear the option of other polycount folks. A few months ago I took an art test for a local studio where the goal was to create a concept for a new weapon. The weapon had to fire two disks within a sec or two of each other. I needed to design how the… -
PSU and video card problems. need help
I just bought a geforce 8800GTS and the requirements say that it needs a 400 watt power supply with a minimum of 26 amps on the +12 volt rail. Now, since they dont really even make PSU's (as far as I know) that have a single 12V plug with 26 amps, I assume they mean the amount of amps across all of the 12V plugs. I have… -
What matters most: Clean HD 60 fps game or High Quality graphics?
Whenever judging a game's visual quality, there are a lot of things to consider. In my opinion, I separate the graphics into two separate categories before judging the game visual quality as a whole. 1: The game's rendering and artist work itself Basically, that's the texture, the shading, the modeling, the lighting and… -
