Cheers Wester! It's a huge boost to hear that :) Thanks I've been going back and forth on texturing. I'm finally at the point when I'm saying no. Originally, this was meant to be an exercise in modeling and stretching my skills a bit. I was also hoping to take on a huge project, so I'd get into the habit of modeling every…
I'm really late to the roof tile challenge, but I have a question... I feel like I must be overlooking something obvious... I'm trying to get color variation from tile-to-tile. @capone I really like the color variation in your tiles. I made 6 different tiles for Pattern Input. Using the Tile Sampler node, but adjusting in…
I am so looking forward to this. It's going to be great to share this game with my kid, the original was a big favorite of mine when I was younger. However the style bugs me a little bit. I don't know, sometimes it feels like it works and others it feels very disjointed. The backgrounds are gorgeous, but the characters…
The second game, Under Siege, received significant under-the-table support from Hezbollah. It's not well documented (if at all) in English sources. This is from discussion with two gamers I know (edit: knew) from the Levant / Maghreb who followed the production closely in their youth because it was the first major game…
So what about mass effect 3? There's that dlc that came with every version of the game, but you could unlock it by either a. having bought the collector's edition of the game, or b. buying the dlc. So what you're saying is that even if you didn't buy the collector's edition of the game, you should still get that dlc for…
CryEngine had Light Propogation Volumes at least since 2009. The guys from Lionhead put it onto UE4 after the SVOGI thing failed for Epic. So shortly speaking what you call irradiance has actually been in games for a while now. What I think what you're actually referring to is a clean art style that plays up bounce…
I kinda wondered where that would fall as well. I'm also at a Serious Games type company. Actually, I didn't know there was another one of those companies so close by (I'm about an hour and half away from Peoria.) My gut instinct says no, though...your best bet is to just get your proof of employment and send it to them to…
Chiming in on the P90X. It does make a nice difference after that first 30 days and beyond. By day 30, I had 4 different people tell me that I looked smaller than I had before. But as also mentioned in this thread, changing your food intake is key. High protein foods can really help. Another thing worth mentioning is that…
Hey man, good start so far and cool concept. ISmokeRodeo i think was right when he said to make the biceps a little longer. The right arm looks correct but the left arms angle kinda shows the shorter bicep length. The elbows should be just above the navel in a relaxed pose. Just an image to show ya…
STRAFE® lead artist checking in: While I recognise we don't exactly serve as an example of AAA, I've worked on those games in the past using Max, and would have no qualms about taking on the same projects now that I use Blender. One of the reasons I chose it over other packages was because they weren't afraid to throw away…
