Re: My first game has been officially announced!
[ QUOTE ] Forgive me if I am unable to put honesty and bluntness aside in a congratulation thread... [/ QUOTE ] Forgive you for not being able to keep your mouth shut? Do you have Internet Tourette's or something? If we should feel sorry for you because you've got some debilitating handicap that causes you to shit on other… -
Re: How deep into gaming engines do you need to be?
1) You don't need to learn to program, but you will handicap your skill at the higher levels if you never understand how they work. Most of how they work can be garnered form some of the great tutorials and explanations kicking around this site. If you want to get deep then my first suggestion for you is learning about how… -
Re: CryEngine 3 Master Thread
Just wanted to share some advice on the Editor. Couple of things have been bugging me for a long time, and only recently I've figured how to fix or explain them. 1. If you are using Parallax Occlusion Mapping feature in your materials, you may be familiar with this issue: ^ PoM off ^ PoM on To avoid incorrect self-shading… -
Re: A rant on Mudbox (or my ineptitude, you decide)
To be fair, not everything with Blender is good to go right out of the "box". You are really missing out on a lot of decent brushes with the dedicated sculpting applications, however, some of the best sculptors only need the basics so its not too much of a handicap. All that said, you should be able to hit well over 1… -
Re: For learning anatomy do I learn in 2D or 3D?
Both digital and traditional require you to pay close attention to subtleties, and spend lots of time making observations, but traditional will require you to develop hand-eye skill, whereas even if you can't make a straight line you can get around that any number of ways with digital. I can't draw worth a crap. Not… -
Re: Dante's Inferno
Haa, I think I still have "Barlowe's Guide to Extraterrestrials" somewhere from when I was a kid. Actually, from when my older brother was a kid. Style of this trailer looks interesting enough, but I don't really like the hero character - ah well. To Jackablade's question, would take it in a partially non-linear… -
Re: Maya 8 features that I like.
[ QUOTE ] Taken from an Autodesk press conference earlier in the week: "we changed the load screen, on both Maya8 and Max9 which constitutes a version change under the current US anti-piracy laws. NOW GIVE US MONEY!! oh yea and we also spent more money last year than we should of so... we-laid-off-our-R&D-team. Bob, the… -
Re: Baking Spec Maps Via Max
I figured this would be taken the wrong way, my apologies... given that guess I probably shouldn't have left the comment as-was. I didn't mean ignorant as an insult to you seforin, if that makes sense. More ignorant as, people who aren't familiar with what someone (often a smart person) is talking about will take what that… -
Re: UE4 - Bomb shelter - Designer to artist
If I'm understanding this correctly, you only used a albedo/diffuse map for everything here and no normal/roughness/metalness? If so, I would learn how to texture properly in a PBR workflow as that is what will be used in a AAA production. You never want to handicap your work with excuses when presenting. If you are aware… -
Re: COD:Modern warfare 3
If anything first person shooters have never had such a variety as it has now, heck, that's what people are complaining about, too many. If anything call of duty has opened up a bigger market for shooters and we're getting things like bioshock and deus ex with due to that. People will always complain about change, that's a…
