Re: Few questions about total tri count, shadows, and texture resolution relating to performance
Assuming you are using forward rendering, a second per-pixel directional light requires a second pass in a shader (I believe). If you use a single directional light and a single pass shader you will reduce your GPU times but it's not going to affect your shadowcasters or tri-count. Three options instead of a second… -
Re: Over time discussion cont'd
Also for whoever posted in the last thread about "creatives" making us immune to overtime. Remember that EA* LOST that lawsuit. A "creative" as defined by law, is someone who sets their own hours to accomplish an asset. You say "make me a painting/website/character" and provide no real guide, so I can make one that takes… -
Re: Income Potential.
I might be an exception, but I honestly came to the conclusion I would rather do 3D art for the money. I'm already doing 60 hours per week job outside of the industry, and I hate it. The money I've made doing these side jobs are still terrible, while having to witness some of the most horrifying imagery I've come across… -
Re: Kartoon Soldier
Ok noticed that the topic title had been changed overnight. I thought that the German word for cabbage I used in the topic title was clear to all Germans posting here that it was meant affectionately and endearing. I am sorry though that none of you Germans contacted me directly if you found offense to it, because then I… -

Re: MSc Dissertation - Game And Survey
Thought I'd post some more on the feedback I've had on this- a user said "game ran at 60fps with cpu at 60% usage and the GPU at 50% usage at the highest res. QX9650 & GTX 570 that is with everything open including PS, 3DS max and UDK editor." so that's pretty promising to me and I think I can be safe in the knowledge that… -
Re: David Sawchuk 2010 Demo Reel for Critique!

Re: Animation Demoreel critique
Halo! Thanks for the feedback, I will try to change it as fast as possible :) . About the broccoli run,it is the way we imported them into unreal, we wanted to achieve a really fast animation and as unreal works with seconds and not with frames (or that is what I understood in the moment) the better way to do it was… -
Re: Frontier Station Gamma
A tiny update, progress has been a bit slow going in my free time; I made some cabinets for the interior! @musashidan Thanks! I'd love to turn it into a game of some sort one day (or at least a game in the same style), but alas it's a pretty big commitment and finding time with work and life can be a bit of a pain… -
Re: MEL script help getting my toggle boolean statement to work in a global proc?
Thanks guys, I'm just learning MEL so I don't really understand the rules yet and I'm not a programmer this is my first programming language. Global variable was the problem, and I'll also check out if I can query the panels as suggested as that would be a bit cleaner, I'll post back if I can't get the panels working on my…
