Hey guys. I'll try to keep this brief so it doesn't sound like I'm whining. I graduated from a lackluster school. Once I finished I realized that I was nowhere near ready to land a job in this industry. Being pretty bummed out someone directed me to polycount. So I got a few part time jobs and starting trying to absorb all…
I don't agree about it feeling like an indie game, I would never play an indie game for more than a few hours, let alone the hundreds I have sunk into this game. The story was a bit bland, but I think it has a few cool moments. There were definitely moments where I was thinking "who the fuck is this and why am I here?"…
Here i did this while listening to a podcast. (more help is at bottom, so read the whole thing and then start if you feel like doing it) I dont know what you know so i made it as simple as possible step by step. This is for me the simplest way I could think of making a model. (in one piece) if you look at the image I…
It's funny that you mention this. I just saw this online, and I think it might be more towards what you are talking about. Raising aware for mental illness through games. http://www.giantbomb.com/podcasts/raising-mental-illness-awareness-via-games/1600-638/ But yes, very few people want to make games that don't "suck".…
If you do not draw how will you make stylised characters and hand painted textures? You're limiting yourself to photosourcing textures or the texture generating softwares (wich are awesome btw, but without some user imput every thing looks generic and flat and you're a slave to the process involved because you don't…
pre-warning: I suspect that there have been threads in the past that have had a discussion on this very subject. I have honestly looked around for them, but found nothing solid. So if you think this thread is unneccessary or the discussion has been opened too many times, please excuse me, it's not my intention to fall into…
@Ghost-Post counts don't matter to anyone, its all about the join date, as you can tell by my reputation. Hey everyone, I didn't realize I was the topic of this thread (sort of) until I read the whole thing start to finish, kind of just read the first post and the last replies. This thread went from OP -> bad advice ->…
I need some help from you guys. I've recently acquired some money from B-Day gifts, and I'm considering entering the game console world again. Problem is, I'm not confident which device to go with this time. Typically there is an obvious front runner. I'm still about a month away from making a purchase since I still need…
Harle: Cool cool, sounds like we're on the same page there. Some weird info in the last few posts (with the exception of Laurens'), I won't go into great detail explaining the map inputs, because I've already done that here. We did a podcast on this as well last weekend. But here is a quick summary of the map types again.…
This is because of the reasons stated above. As I said, I'm finding myself not improving unless I get some assistance on here, and this is what I mean, one can ask 'too many' questions on here which is why I've been considering education. And I only reply to threads so often because I like to be thankful for peoples…
