No way! You were Urza's destruction? Damn! I posted a few times on q2pmp, mostly with Amiga questions. Then I started bugging Rogue and Kithkyn about posting my Q2 skins. Nothing ever happened for some reason and then Lo and Behold Polycount sprang to life! I got recruited here by Schwimmel. I've emailed him a couple of…
i still remember you from back then, you goober population densities and makeups are always a subject of interest to me, doubly so as a moderator. these days i'm proud of the current polycount makeup, it's easily managed and a pretty good mix of people. just keep in mind that this forum, as with most, has its own periods…
me and a friend in jr. high were downloading Q2 skins from polycount back in the day. i can't say for sure though, it was so long ago. he was heavy into gamespy at the time, i didn't know shit about computers or the internet, i didn't know what a forum was. it's the color scheme, it stands out to me for some reason. i…
[ QUOTE ] Tes, Hope I wasn't an asshole. [/ QUOTE ] Don't worry, you wasn't. It was actually a very positive remark. [ QUOTE ] I got recruited here by Schwimmel. I've emailed him a couple of times, but I still get no response. I hope he's okay [/ QUOTE ] I hope so too. I've reviewed 2 Quake 3 skins for polycount. But I…
I'm not sure I quite fit into Vig's categories either. I'm technically a professional in that I'm a full time game developing artist, but I've got far too much to learn before I really see as myself deserving of the title. I believe it was my then flatmate JIStyles who introduced me to Polycount back in early 2002. I…
Polycount... martinez / monster stumbled across it back in late '99 or early 2000, and pointed me to it. Haven't posted much in the last 3 years or so just because i try and limit my internet forum tiem while I'm at work. You missed the huge surge we had for about a week, when those foreign kids came and began posting…
God, this is going back... last time I was a regular was '98. Getting on here whenever I had spare time and access to the college internet. I think it was more awesome back then personally, but probably because of the people who were on here. Not sure if he is still here and changed his name or gone, but EvilBastard was by…
I can't think of when I didn't know about Polycount. I more than likely stumbled across it searching for replacement models for half life and as I became in tune with Milkshape (my first introduction to 3D), I'd simply watch these boards for ideas and styles. I used to have the name JustinSays, but only had about 130 posts…
-The cycles of polycount- Newb Cycle: - School lets out, we get some new people looking for jobs or asking about art schools. They stick around for a week or two but normally as soon as they find out its not all trampolines and hookers they bail. - Shortly after school lets out we get a wave of newbies asking what software…
I came here some time in 2002 maybe? I cannot recall. I had known about Polycount since it's inception, but didn't post here until Cheapalert suggested I post a couple of player models I had made for a project I was working on. I guess I fall into the category "have a cake job, can spend time working on game art". Actually…
