So I have to say excellent thread and solid discussion to be having. As someone who got into the industry with this overworking mindset I made every single one of the mistakes with the common work day. It was not at all unusual for me to go in at 8 in the morning and leave around midnight. I was fortunate enough to work at…
Well Rooster, I know exactly how you feel... my final deadline is Friday the 13th too, and this week has been a bodyclock bending rollercoaster ride of trying to get all my coursework printed, compiled and tidyed in time. As for stress? to be honest, my soap operaesque life is causing me more stress (friends getting…
I agree that there are plenty of indie gems out there ... but hammering that is missing the point of the article (and the current situation). Of course we can enjoy Super Meat Boy (awesome game by the way!!) and play Tiny Wings to our hearts content. I am getting a kick out of these, no doubt about that. I think what is…
I have my mouse in mouse mode for all three screens and I have my pen in pen mode for just my left most screen (where I run all my intensive programs). I had my pen set to mouse mode for the first few months, way back when I hardly ever used it. Now I use it far far more and there's really no way on earth you'd catch me…
The first thing that happened was I got stuck INSIDE the ball itself. As in, within it's collision mesh. It rolled into me, push me against a wall and somehow sucked me inside. After hitting all the buttons I could for about five minutes it decided to set me free, but it wasn't done with me. The ball's next evil plan was…
DAZ!..... I was in the same exact situation. I've been living in my Apt. for 2.5 years, and for the long while an old woman lived on the other side of my wall. Under my sink was a hole that connected into the walls. Her nasty ass Butt smoke would leak into my apartment time to time. Thank goodness it was rare. But i…
I really hope you are able to get to a better place asap. However...always keep the long view in mind. You don't know what the future will hold, and you can't sprint forever. This is a lesson that life has tried to teach me a thousand times, but I still make the same mistakes again and again. Just two days ago I was…
Man My brother and I used to play "Ninjas" in the 80's with lawn darts, throwing them at each other and then dodging so that they darts would stick in trees. My sister refuced to play and stayed inside. The Increadible Edibles barely were edible, and the bottles for their sauce looked just like the Creepy Crawly's…
Normal & AO flawed in Substance Painter Hello, I've exported both my low poly and high poly models to Substance Painter 2 as .obj files, with faces as triangles (I need my model to be triangulated for the game engine). The issue is that when I bake maps from my high poly, it produces this weird result with Normal & AO…
Hey guys, my first post on this lovely forum. Ive lurked here for a few years now on and off but never needed to make a post until now. I decided this would be the best place to ask the question i have since people here are savvy with 3D programs and understand game related problems. I have two questions really but both…
