That's funny Johny. Excuse me If I'm blurring the guidelines of your thread somewhat : Whilst working on pre-rendered cinematics using shave & a haircut procedural hair plug-in for maya: EA producer: "Wow, that looks amazing. Can we get that working in game too?" Me: EA producer to press: "We use our own proprietary face…
While I agree that it is a bit crappy if you end up not being credited at all for a project you've spent a fair bit of time and effort on, however at the other end of the spectrum, I don't think it's sensible or useful to try and credit absolutely everyone who's touched the game in some way (especially, as thomasp said,…
This is a slippery slope. Most sites that actually make money off of add revenue are specifically designed to increase click-through. They use coding specifically to increase the number of clicks and refreshes on their site so that they can show impressive figures to potential advertisers. Your best bet right now is to…
when will they learn? the only thing obtrusive drm mechanisms do is keep people from buying the games... i skipped a couple of recent games for that reason (most recently gta 4 for the pc) and so did quite a few friends and work mates... it's really ironic that warez versions come without all the hassle that you get as a…
there are maybe some issues to be found with the magazine release area but it's reasonable enough for a fictional design. the biggest problem is that the barrel is shorter than the hand rail. barrels are usually the thing that sticks the furthest out on a rifle because that is usually what decides the overall weapon length…
Papervision 3D is a project that is in constant flux. The current development version is usually quite a ways beyond the current stable version. As such you will almost always be trading off stability for performance and features. DAE is very cross-platform and cross-engine compatible because of the simplicity of the…
smart materials and mask are just convenience time savers. if you can look at a model and recognize that there is grease where there should be grease, the only technical thing you have to know to do l is how to use a layer mask. You make a fill layer for the grease, you mask it black, and then paint white to expose the…
I'm a concept artist looking for work, but I'm only familiar with 2D! I'll be willing to take rather low pay, since I usually work freelance. https://eecsys.wixsite.com/sugar-crash-graphic I'm best with humanoids but occasionally draw fantasy animals!
So i thought id actually give my first ever environment a shot. Im trying to keep the scene relatively simple because not only am i new to UDK but im also somewhat new to UV mapping and texturing in general. I wanted the scene to be closely based on this concept art (i did not create this, was found on google). The scene…
Hey. So I was a senior artist for a few years just making the art and worked on a project from mid-base release all the way through dlc (still on the project). I got promoted mid way through dlc so have been a lead for about 9 months now. My team is small, 5 including me, and we're coming to the end of the dlc lifecycle.…
