What should I do to make this not look like dog shit. I've downloaded the ndo2 trial for the normals but the floor normals look weird and the wall normals look non-existent. I've been converting my diffuse .bmp to make them, I don't know if there is a better way to to it beside baking within Maya. Also, is this what i…
This guy is advocating that indies should clone games in order to be successful and grow. It doesn't really matter if he's a small business (if you consider 30 people small, http://eastsidegamestudio.com) or Zynga, that attitude certainly isn't helping the industry innovate and grow.

Man, I really think this game deserves a bit more attention. I've been having a blast playing it since it came out. While it does have it's flaws, the reviews I've read seem a little unjust and in a lot of ways like the reviewer is complaining about actually having to try to play the game (what, there's aiming?) What kind…
The dress is looking very good now. However, I am bothered by the lack of anatomical definition is the mid section of the horse part. The front and back legs have a lot of attention paid to its anatomy, but the torso is very plain. There is not really any definition of a ribcage or muscle and tissue connection to the…
What number of poly's would you require for the models you have ? As you might have noticed the objects on display in the iPad video have been smoothed, that egg shaped gold coloured thing is 30052 faces .. After i started working on the iPad i haven't tried iPhone builds anymore, .. But if you could give an indication of…
