Lately I've been wanting to pick up a tablet screen, but getting a good sized Cintiq (such as the $1500 Cintiq Pro 16) is just too much for my budget atm. So I was looking at alternatives, and saw that a few months ago one called the 'XP-Pen Artist15.6' was released that seems to check all the right boxes (good screen…
Another reason to get a Nexus (new version) is you would be working with the newest purest OS. So say you got a Samsung, and you get it working on such. That does not equate to then it working on other devices. Using the Nexus gives you the good baseline. If it works on that, and not on another, then you know its something…
For those of us still studying your GOW2 thread for techniques, this is a very welcome thread :) Have played close to three quarters of the campaign in split-screen, but would probably rather push someone off the couch to make sure to see the game full-screen. Really wonderful work and especially with lightmass involved,…
The reason why 30 or even 60 fps aren't enough for games is because of temporal aliasing, ie stuttering between frames. If you have a movie clip of a completely black screen slowly blending into white then 25 fps will be more than enough, but every other frame being black and white might very well need over 100. it gets a…
Thanks. It's a good idea to show some props of my TFA. More than only screens. And I probably do some news in the few next days. Yes, the door is unwrapped this way to have a complete unique texture. If I wanted to really use it for an environment, I could optimize but it wasn't the goal. Arg, the weapon box... Yes of…
Source code ? You mean unrealscript ? I didn't found a good way to compute the screen brightness without the need to hook the framebuffer unfortunately (via DLLBind). However, once you have this data, you just have to use it to control the tonemapper inside the UberPostsProcess node of your post process chain. Regarding…
Soooo with the long weekend it was time to update my portfolio website/work on some stuff. Website I unwrapped a shack from an older project and retextured it because it was pretty bad. Here are some screens from Marmoset: Then I downloaded the latest release of UDK (June) and tried creating and lighting a scene with the…
I think Beth is going to go, she's getting a lot more screen time than what she used to, like before when they were on the farm I never knew who she even was. I know she survived and all but I have a feeling that she is just getting this development so she can have an emotional death and they can kill off a character...…
well in are engine we had all the textures were loaded up at the beginning. My textures ranged from 16x16 32x32 64x64, and rare 128 was used but it has to be important. Like i said early about the floor with those dark and light lines you will get crawling lines on screen. Try to stay away from dark and light lines close…
Ahh, there's nothing more fun than painting from a null idea. Kinda' like picking out shapes in a cloud, except often times more brütal and entertaining (then again I've seen some really f-ed up clouds). Watching your thought process in your painting is quite enlightening - please do this more often! Your concepts and…
