Re: Feeling stuck, critique my portfolio?
A good idea might be I believe is to work on smaller projects instead of big scenes. The reason being is that if you work on a single asset, maybe a car, weapon, or statue, you have more time to make it look good, research and generally let the best out of yourself. Also it's easier to ask for critique on a single weapon,… -
Re: Comparing roles in the industry. Indie vs AAA
Indie development definitely involves wearing a lot of different hats. I can speak from experience of working with extremely low budget teams working towards a goal of breaking into the industry. So above free college work but just below fully funded indie studio work. One of my primary reasons for doing indie work was to… -
Re: [Weekly Theme 3] Kick Attack
Another hr today. the spin before definitely feels forced. Split more of it into the falling part and it feels more natural now. Added simple FX. Another hr later today or tomorrow for another timing tweak and overlapping bits and call it done. [ame] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wK5RZRu4iGg[/ame] @Denny, big improvement… -
Re: I got 99 problems..
Dv, We are here to help you. This is a board dedicated to helping artists become better artists. From the get go, you posted your work and a suggestion was made to you. Here is where you didn't take constructive criticism. We are not here to fight with you, but to rather give you insight into what we have found to be… -
Re: WIP - Hand Painted Texturing
Achillesian - Thanks, you're right about the cloth. I winged the folds and it definitely shows. I'll do a bit more research next time :) JacqueChoi - Glad to hear and thanks for the pro tip! Just curious, are the effects you mentioned something you usually keep in mind while painting, or do you tend to knock them out in… -
Re: Normal map error
Please stop telling beginners to just add chamfers. It doesn't always work, and it tells them that adding geometry is the solution to every problem. @jayantbhatt007 Always start with how detailed you want your lowpoly model to be. From there, Tangent-Space normals can only "fix" angles up to a certain degree, based on how… -
Re: 3D-Palace and DVD
Yes they all create a similar style to the dvd but that is because it works. You are marketing to beginners and they need to learn the basics before creating a character. <--- Have you done market research buddy? do you work as a teacher? My students don't enjoy current DVD's simpy because there is little focus and because… -
Re: Gears of War - Impressions?
You're right about the split screen mode, and the A button (I kinda wish you used the stick-clicks to do these actions, it's sad to have to take your hand off the controls to do anything, doesn't take TOO long but sometimes those seconds you could be turning you have to be doing something else). The lighting as well,… -
Re: [Nostalgia Topic] Archimedean Dynasty (1996)
You're more than likely gonna hate the music of A.D. (German techno always felt out of place in the game), but the rest of the atmosphere is just great. There's a demo available weighing in at under 9 MB (those were the days :P) and you're likely to need DOSBox to run it. But it works. Demo only contains a few missions and… -
Re: Office Level
Heh good point. The models that can be constructed using the game engine are fairly limited, due to the fact that they have to be constructed out of adjusted cubes. While you can construct some fairly elaborate shapes, you don't get the same control that you would with an md3 model. As to your comment about using the…
