Re: Setting up hit zones on a bullseye target in UDK
In unreal script hook the TakeDamage function of your target class object to a scoring routine. Have it pass along the hit location. Just be sure to make your target's center point/origin at the bullseye. In the code get the distance from the object's origin/position in worldspace to the hitpoint in worldspace. Feed the… -
Re: Career Advise
Are you asking between programming and art?? Why not combine the two disciplines and get into tech art. I suggest taking a look see through the coding and scripting forum on here.

Re: Your dream studio?

Re: Dreams of becoming a UI artist
+1 for everything Stinger88 said. You'll want to stress graphic design, art, and animation. Having some programming knowledge (which you'd probably pick up anyway) is also incredibly valuable. I'm a UI guy and went toward the coding end. It's really easy to switch industries (if you have to) and finding a job has never… -
