Re: Game series you wish had continued, and those you wish hadn't.
The Tribes series. I play Tribes 2 religiously, every Friday night. When Tribes: Vengeance came out, I really enjoyed the single player side of it, but they screwed up the multiplayer side (and didn't support modding). The community got really upset about the lack of bug fixes, and mod support, and the community let Sierra… -
Re: "Game dev attempts to claim revenue from the Youtubers"
Sort of interesting topic. Its clearly not the same as movies/tv. Movies are a static medium that everyone experiences in the same way. If you stream a movie on the internet, you get the same experience as watching it on DVD or seeing in the theatre (give or take the amount/type of snacks and seating, and to some degree… -
Re: Sketchbook: CW89
hey, thanks for checking out! :) Yeah it's a weapon design I'm currently working on for an assignment at school. It's a one-handed harpoon device (for a game I guess) that can catch squids from a distance xD Once caught, it will extract the ink using the 4 needles and use the ink to blind other players. The ink of those… -
Re: Dropped Babies - Game Developing
So silly gravity gimmicks: primary PLAYER'S ENTIRE INTERACTION WITH THE GAME WORLD: secondary ?????? It seems like a recurring them in your rebuttal of gauss (who has actually done this shit for a living)'s post is that your prototype doesn't include the part that will make the game fun. What the hell is that about?… -
Re: First Hand Painted Model (WIP)
Big improvement in the most recent image. However, it looks like you are using a soft-edged brush. This makes details and colors look blurry or airbrushed on. You want to use a hard-edged brush when doing the hand-painted look. That is what gilesruscoe used in the paint-over he did for you. Doing it with a hard-edged brush… -
Re: [Unity] Dead Awake - Artist learning to code
punkie103: All weapons have a durability and a deterioration rate and can beak however it isn't really clear to the player yet when it happens yet. The UI will have a durability meter for each equipped weapon and a clear indication when a weapon breaks. This is to force players to change their weapons quite often, I'm not… -
Re: Feedback for my portfolio?
Maybe? It depends on what they delays were, if you were in the military, if you were in school or something else was happening. I'd be interested in hearing what happened inbetween idea inception and then actual dev work starting. Would help me get a better context of where you were coming from originally with the 100 days… -
Re: What matters most: Clean HD 60 fps game or High Quality graphics?
I think it is really dependent on the game. Echoing some of what was said before, pretty much any high-twitch/multi-player game requires a solid 60fps, with no performance dips. If sections of a game can dip by more than 15 fps, I'd rather have a locked frame rate. In a story based, single player game, where 10ms isn't… -
Re: Swashbuckling lady character.
As I worked on this, I kept thinking of how silly fantasy outfits for women are, like this one, they leave a lot of vital areas exposed, wouldn't she die pretty quickly? Also, I was a big fan of the idea in Crysis 2 where the Nanosuit was holding together the player inside from dying and falling apart. So I figured combine… -
Re: MMO-Cloth and Polycount
There is no typical count, totally depends on your particular target. 8000 sounds great for MMO use. You'll likely have LODs too, to handle crowds of players & NPCs. Usually character clothing means removing any skin underneath. But if you allow the player to heavily customize the character (like most MMOs) then you need…
