Re: Attn: DIY game makers, how did you learn (the coding bits)?
IF anyone is looking for C# books, O'Reilly is having a sale this week 50% off. http://shop.oreilly.com/category/deals/csharp-owo.do?cmp=tw-code-lp-c#-programming The Head First C# book might be a good book for beginners. I went through quite a bit of Head First Java which taught through example programs rather than just… -
Re: Terrain tiling reduction/Multi UV-mixing
There is a rotator and some options for the material, but it affects the entire texture and doesn't make any smart changes. I tried simulating the effect, just for testing, by using two different materials (but the same texture), where one was at 50% opacity and with a different tile size, but it didn't reduce tiling. I… -
Re: Rockstar San Diego
How do you handle that without going insane? After 2 weeks it becomes less about standing up for yourself, and more about figuring out how to physically stand up at all from sheer exhaustion. When companies completely decouple the worker from the profitability of the final product (ie no real profit sharing unless the game… -
Re: Breaking Bad
Also, the old light green Aztek has always been symbolic of Walt's soul. It was with him when he was just a mild mannered chem 101 teacher and every time he's done something that crosses the line it has been physically damaged. Still, even though it's been spattered in "deer" blood and involved in multiple accidents it's… -
Re: [MAXScript] UVW Mapping Paste on Mesh Instances
Yeah I supposed I could iterate to all selection instead of one of every instance but that will break the instance if I ever collapse the stack. Even then I could re-instance them again and its still gonna be 2 step process. If it's only 1 or 2 type of instance that's easy, but if you have around 50+ mesh in the scene… -
Re: Is Alan Moore the greatest comics writer ever?
Hm. So if I was to wander along to the comic store with $50 or so, what would I be wanting to lay my money on? The only graphic novels I've ever really gotten a hold of are a couple of issues of Sin City that I picked up after the movie and some really horrible comics that my dad bought me for a long car trip when I was… -
Re: Almost ready to search for a job... Portfolio Crit
Hehe don't be so hard on yourself Brinskee, It is going to take some work to learn low poly stuff, but with what you have shown with your high poly stuff, it shouldn't be much of a stretch to learn low poly. As far as modeling, I would say your 50% there or more, because taking your high poly and making it low poly… -
Re: Explosions in London !!!
this sucks, the death toll has officially risen above 50+ Had an event of bad taste happen when playing Quake3 online last night, some anus logged in as LONDONS BURNING HAHA and crashed the server. Indeed I think Vig's conclusion was rather extreme and the link Daz just posted has got me frustrated >:/ Events such as these… -
Re: I need a new videocard, Suggestions?
[ QUOTE ] Gigabyte 6800GT 256mb for 249. It seems to be the best 'bang' for the buck right now. [/ QUOTE ] DO NOT, I repeat DO NOT get a Gigabyte. That supposed pipe cooling heatsink is only in reality held on to the chip with double sided thermal tape. You will idle around 140-150 degrees. The only solution I found was… -
Re: Halo 3 Mulitplayer behind the scenes
They have already said not everything will be in the beta. Bungie is always secretive of everything they do. I heard that the in house testers are actually imprisoned at a secret location and will not be let go until it ships and there are armed guards on the roof with .50 cal sniper rifles. Helicopters on standby with…
