Re: Copyright, IP, and infringement. Oh my!
Fair enough, yes. What is this "unlimited payment" you're talking about? That doesn't make sense at all. Copyright is set up so that it protects intellectual property from being used without permission by the original creator. IP is nothing like a desk or a loaf of bread or a car; it's a product that there is a continuous… -
Re: Reducing crunch - is there any market research to suggest improved graphics matters at all?
I think it just really boils down to one thing : Shareholders, or whoever makes the decisions in the company, are going to push people as hard as they can be pushed for as little in return as possible. Pretty much no matter what the company set up is, this is just fundamental truth. If one person has power over another,… -
Re: Building a Portfolio for College
If the school is good and you still live with your parents, I'd be careful about moving around just yet. Theres not yet a reason to destabilize without impending income I think. Better to focus on school. I'm unsure what the course or school is like, but if it's game focused and anything like the US or Aus system, 9/10 the… -
Re: Maya Rig - Character Set // Error: line 0: animCurve creation or connection failed for attribute
I've run into that error a few times. I haven't changed how I rig and sometimes it pops up and sometimes it doesn't. Drives me bonkers because I haven't figured out what causes it or a solid fix for it. There are times that I'll redo that part of the rig, test it and get no errors then days later they are back. Here are… -
Re: My First Modular Facade
Annnnnnnd back! Last time on My First Modular Facade: *explosions followed by tacos* So yeah. Textures textures everywhere! After blocking out the pieces, detaching them, and realigning pivots to useable areas... I got this. The windows look sooooo weird when they're narrow that I bulk them up cos hey, I'm the architect… -
Re: Noob question about smoothing techniques
You're here asking a question, wanting to learn. That automatically qualifies you for learning all of this. No one starts out skilled. Sadly, not even the best modeler on earth can make you understand by typing words. You'll have to seek out the theory behind different subjects and try most of it for yourself in order to… -
Re: Community Colleges: training ground for game dev?
![[MILES]](https://us.v-cdn.net/5021068/uploads/userpics/navatar16155_3.gif)
Paul, I was just about to email you this morning in regard to this, as I believe the college that contacted you may have done so per my request. (Assuming we are speaking of the same South Texas institution). If this is the case, you are correct in that they have little or no expertise in the games arena, but do apparently… -
Re: Procedural Map/Game Generation - UE4
Well I added in some basic state AI, so AI can be assigned multiple teams and will attack opposing teams from an array. Currently has three states of AI, Safe -> Caution -> Engaged. Implemented personal "sound system" so if a gunshot is fired nearby, AI will move towards the shot location if not currently already engaging… -
Re: Games with the best dialog?
[ QUOTE ] Gordon Freeman's lines are pretty profound if I may say so myself. [/ QUOTE ] For a guy that never says anything, he speaks volumes... Half-Life has great interactive story but dialog with NPC's is always your standard, "ouch! quit it" "pick that up" or long explanations that ended with "no time! Here take this… -
