Re: Life after graduation...
I went to School Of Visual Arts at NYC. Ill tell the story of a close friend of mine since he entered school with very little knowledge of 3D but a good traditional art background. Chris entered SVA with a great traditional portfolio that he worked on tirelessly in his high school years before I even met him. When he was… -
Re: PBR: The Problem with Greyscale Metalness
Firstly I don't feel this is off topic at all because it is directly about non-black non-white metallic values, but you seem to still be confused. I really don't want to drag this out, because it goes over artists' heads and is not very helpful information when they can't do anything other than "Well switch to Specular".… -
Re: Mesh outline generation for leaves?
This piqued my interest so I hacked a macroscript I'd cobbled together a while back for turning sprites into 3d objects (it's a hack squared) It appears to work - it's not fully automated or clever but I actually got some decent results out of it bad things : It starts from a very inefficient mesh (quad per pixel) and… -
Re: A Question for You Designers...
Sonic, requirements will keep going up, mostly tho, only on the artistical side of things. All the shader and normalmap baking stuff is easy to learn. If you're an awesome artist, noone will turn you down and you'll pick up the technology know how there. UT2k3 had 2-2.5k poly models. Bad use of normalmaps makes normalmaps… -

Re: This is so sad... flu shot reaction
The "oh you're a crazy soccer mom" rhetoric is vaguely familiar of the "cigarettes don't cause cancer" campaigns the same idiots bought into for decades and now love to sue the tobacco companies over. Part of me thinks people want to remain ignorant and fearful because there could be a big reward and its comforting to hear… -
Re: What should I do?
HAH, some people need to read the date stamp on the original post! Thanks for the well wishes anyway, things are pretty awesome right now - I'm actually tossing around the idea of either starting a small studio, taking a year off to just bathe in art like a filthy swine or getting an MBA so I can become a manager that… -
