Re: 3ds Max tool for expediting model export to Valve Source Engine
It's hard to believe I've been working on this tool for two years now... whew... Anyway, I loaded an update today that fixes a bug in the material exporter (if the material had the reflaction checkbox on but no map... now it works either way). Also update the displacement tool. It now works a lot better. Unfortunately, one… -
Re: Flappy Bird
He actually did, here and here and maybe more? The Piou Piou game actually plays a lot differently, it's one of those games where the camera is constantly moving and you have to avoid the cactus to avoid the camera catching up to you :) I agree it looks similar but that image would have you belive it was a 1:1 copy which… -
Re: UDK or Cryengine 3 - Specific Scene
It depends. For me personally I would go with CE3 Reasons: 1. No lightmap baking. 2. Very fast iteration on lighting setup (you just add, and change lights as you wish, and see results immedietly) 3. You don't have to make any shaders (and you can't for that matter), but stock ones are good enough for any realistic scene.… -
Re: Game Devloper given exployes massive bonusses to have children!
We are actually on the same page here. With education comes an understanding of equality, women's rights and birth control. No means no is taught in sex ed, not math. I completely agree. Peter Pan syndrome + the abstinence only push removing birth control from a lot of peoples hands = a lot of unsupported kids and a raise… -
Re: [Portfolio] Kyle Perkins
The jukebox is turning out fantastic. I too must say that I'm sad to not see the cord detail carry over on your phone. As for your portfolio, design it around the job you want. If you want to be an Enviro artist, just start tearing through a couple nice environments. If you want to do prop, stick with what you're doing and… -
Re: S2 game engine free?
Its only for non-commercial use?I think the faq says u can use it for commercial use for free unless u make over $100,000.I do like that for small teams,individuals u pay a fixed fee rather than 25% of ur earnings for royalties. I think I am kinda done with realtime rendering.I will start focusing on realistic renderers… -
Re: EA Layoffs, hope everyone will find something again
Making game art isn't moving boxes or sewing blue jeans. There is some 3d asset making or coding that can be replicated anywhere, but the truly skilled have always risen to the top in all economic models in all times. Even during feudalism and the middle ages the masters were able to secure employment for their art. Will… -
Re: Outsource yourself?
I've actually been thinking along these lines for a year or so now. I'd like to start a small gaming company based out of Michigan. It'd be nice to see some of that sort of industry in this state. We are stuck in the automotive industry here and if the American manufacturers do bad, WE do bad in this state. It'd be nice to… -
Re: The FearMe daily (or damn near it) Update Thread
Doodling in ZBrush is fine and I think you can push shapes around and use it as a tool to HELP you learn anatomy. I don't subscribe to the idea that you need to code in notepad for 9 years before you can graduate to the big boy toys. Sure you can learn anatomy and critical artistic skills by making low poly meshes but it…
