So I dug through these threads and well I didn't quite find the answers. People a lot complain about what is in duty of art lead. What he/she should what shouldn't do. Many stories is about bad leading. And the good leading is only in wishes. It would be great if everyone in team would be on the same page. But people who…
When I first started to do game art back in may I was asking everyone I knew for help and honestly looking back it was such a waste. It made myself look noobish and kind of like someone who just did not want to do my own work. I got my shit together and started doing things on my own and if I did need help I googled first.…
Hero Academy is now available worldwide! http://itunes.apple.com/app/id488156323 If you like the game please leave an honest review on the iTunes App Store. I'll sweeten the pot! The first 5 people to respond with their registered gamertags I'll send a free unlock code for the Dark Elves and a few other goodies! UPDATE:…
Option C: gumroad, 3dmotive, youtube. save yourself a boatload of debt and use cheaper learning resources readily available that are made by people currently in the industry. Only downside is you have to be super self motivated and disciplined to actually put in the work consistently. Save yourself 30-50k of debt and start…
some clever program that handles default paths and paths of the current project across all programs I use. Export an obj from max? It wants to put it in the /export folder. Want to load stuff in ZB? It looks for it somewhere else. Same goes for Maya... I source textures in PS from drive X but my work is on drive Z. Sure…
Yeah, I don't really agree with any of that. First, what's to say there's no genetic splicing? Sure looks like some weird shit is going on to me. I think there is definitely going to be a clear equivalent to splicing if it just doesn't flat out have splicing to begin with. 'Echo of the politics' is a ridiculous statement;…
Yep, the marking menus are awesome, I use them all the time. It's just like mouse gestures in a web browser (or old game like Black & White :) ). In some ways it's better than hotkeys because you can have all the context-sensitive stuff on one hotkey which pops up the marking menu, then different gestures off that result…
Never had that problem but I can safely say that the amount of wattage in your power supply is definitely plenty. Maybe that video card is getting a little old for some of the stuff you're trying to do? Trying to think of what else it could be but it most likely isn't your power supply, especially if you're have different…
I think the most important thing to do is agree on a schedule of topics, like crazyfool did. And then you (LordSebbington), myself, and who ever else can make sure the topic is posted on time, and that we start generating interest at the beginning of that art jam week. I think if you and me take responsibility for…
Heh. The game sports one of the most advanced engines I have seen. All the models are self shadowing. Characters, vehicles, everything. I've not seen that in ANY other game yet. ( and no, the models in Doom3 dont self shadow unless modded ) Draw distance is amazing. I think it's about the most impressive engine out there.…
