Re: GameSalad vs. Stencyl? Others?
The editor has stayed the same more or less so I first dipped my toes into the Unreal engine 15 years ago. It's great as a 3d engine but it isn't the end all be all, I'd need to get a programmer to weigh in but I'd guess Unreal 4 has a lot more processing overhead than engines designed for 2d. -
Re: Toughest art tests you've done/conducted?
Codemasters - it was stupid. Drawing, maths, spatial awarness, colour blindness. And after the 3 hours of testing I got the interview, and 15 minutes into the interview I had decided that I had no interest in working there (the job they had invited me for didn't actaully exist). Had I had the interview first I'd saved… -
Re: Mayweather/Mosley May 1st
Agree. PPVed matches should postpone ground fighting or jujitsu takedowns in the first 2 rounds or 15-20 minutes. Or if you can't submit your opponent after dropping him under 10 minutes, ref resets with both fighters up (yeah, I know they have something like this now but it seems longer than 10 minutes). -
Re: what are the max polycounts for psp?
cant say too much about what i am working on, but on the psp we get a ton of polies, and it all runs pretty good. i get around 3700 for background characters and 4500 for hero class. we usually have 3 to 4 characters on screen at a time. the environment limit is around 15 grand per zone. -
Re: Rendering Tutorials/Suggestions
imho, the largest difference is that mental ray comes with max. vray seems to be more commonly used for archviz which might be due to them having introduced proxies before mray. mental ray has a nice SSS material. http://gnomonology.com/group/15 http://gnomonology.com/tutorial/227 some free stuff to get you started -

Re: Sugar how i will miss thee
Pushups are always good. I would totally recommend vinyasa flow yoga as well. For fast muscle work, I like the '8-minute' series, there's 4 DVD's, only the arms one uses weights. I bought mine off amazon for like 15$ for all 4 (they come 2 to a dvd...abs & arms, legs & butt) -
Re: Pranks at work
I'm working for another department in my company right now doing more GD stuff than game art... with some recent shrinkage, we had to give up one of the offices in the building for a sublet... in the subsequent moving of desks, I had the manager for that department looking for us for about 15 minutes on a floor of the… -
Re: realtime & highpoly character demoreel
Why do I want to download your 248 MB demo real? Save me the 15 minute hassle of downloading, the file size, possible installing a new program just to open it (rar is not a standard on windows)...and put it in a flash player like everybody else. to many steps to go through just to look at it, that it becomes a waste of my… -
Re: RIP Intuos3
I was sleepwalking once and peed on my keyboard. I woke up halfway through and tried to dry everything off. Didn't work. Then again, an Intuos3 isn't a $15 keyboard, and I will assume you didn't put copious amounts of liquid directly into it... like Justin said, just open it up and let it air dry is probably the best…
