[ QUOTE ] HAHAHAHAHA Ninjas, you sound like a kid who has possibly played a little too much Xbox when he should have been doing homework. Please stop speaking for the industry.

Ok just bought it a few days ago (theres a 30% sale going on right now up till 25th december if you enter the code "JINGLE" when buying), my impressions; It's not what I thought it would be like, at first I thought it was a "single-sitting" type of game, but it's actually a more "casual" kind of pick up and play for a few…
The time has come for a new environment art piece to tackle and I'm super excited to get started on this scene and fully document this process through this blog to keep myself on track and not dawdle in the micro details. This project will also be my first time delving into Unreal Engine 5 which will be very interesting to…
David Cruz - I don't think tis a case of i 'like' being directed, but maybe I just am not that fond of taking responsibility at that kind of level. Lot of pressure on lead artists, but it's mainly because I ony got in to it because I started off doing illustration and just enjoy producing artwork. Managing people is a…
Hello, I've recently gotten back into things and as such have been trying to learn the PBR workflow via Substance Painter and Designer. Using Max I assigned various Material IDs to the parts of my low poly mesh to make baking and texturing in Painter easier. However when It comes to exporting the textures it gives me 1 PBR…
Yeah, PSP has carnage mode. My train buddy racked up gold on all but the final beat the bomb with the flatmobile, as it seems only completable if you could turn off collision and drive in a straight line. :p I don't find the stunt maps that much fun, throwing a rag-doll around haphazardly seems a waste of good disk space…

I think Jarm hit a lot of what I wanted to say, here are few more notes: - The meteor is a good base, but I personally think it should be running much faster. And yes it should have something to help it appear like its cutting through the atmosphere. You can use a half-sphere that's squashed and have a very fast panning…
Well, in response to the Windows Ribbon...personally I don't like it..but A) There is an arrow on the right hand of the screen, so you can hide this. If you are a nublet you can use it, if you are a regular/power user then you can ignore it. B) A lot of those options in the Ribbon are popular commands done by keyboard and…
Hmm maybe its just I've had some bad luck then? The first laptop I had this 'round' was an ASUS and I still had optimus problems, Shogun 2 wouldnt use the GPU. I also didn't have a switch that I saw to decide which PU was used. On the dell it was a disaster. I've been thinking about what EQ was saying about a netbook,and…
