Re: Physically Informed Spec Value Library
I think there could still be use for a table with values but there would need to be some standardization for how the values are derived and what they mean (having a defined set of values for a standard black material and white material for example). Different people can take a picture of the same material under different… -
Re: City Environment
Kitteh - Thanks for the critique on the car and do understand that there are some edge loops that can be remove and I left it like that is because of a habit I have when modeling cars. I try and keep things in quad and only use tris in certain area. The model is a 1990 honda crx but decided to make a few changes as I was… -
Re: Animator- The Right Track? Anim progress log
Yeah, I'd say the down position especially is good for showing weight, but the up position too. The contact and passing are best for showing the action. As for what you asked after that... is that all Maya lingo? Cause if so, you completely lost me. I could tell you exactly how I would do this with the 3DSMax biped, but I… -
Re: Artist exercises. (Formerly: Upping the ante on our next challenge(s).)
I like to have art that makes sense. You say to limit the use of those things (I know they were just examples), but they're cliche for a reason - they WORK. What if I had a need to expel some gas or fumes from an object? Sure, I can make exhaust pour out of a hollowed vine or whatever, but that doesn't make sense. The vine… -
Re: 3d artist and animtor needed (remote work)
Actually pyrzern, The thing is, this ISN'T cashier work. Honestly, there are many on here who have honed the craft over many years and many hard times. Also, most who are working freelance charge higher fees because they don't have benefits, they have to pay in to taxes at the end of the year, have to set aside for dry… -

Re: A Game developer's podcast
One thing to note on that is that those kinds of subject matter run dry very quickly - we've discussed them before, but we quickly found that we ran out of things to say before we even got to a 15-minute conversation. It's true that Penny Arcade does videos of 15 minutes that go really in-depth, but quite frankly, we don't… -
Re: Transitioning from VFX
I started out in feature film/television work and was able to make the transition. Much of the skill set transfers over, but you'll definitely have to pick up some new skills. I'd definitely show your best pre-rendered stuff on your portfolio, but you definitely have to have very solid real-time game work as well. If you… -
Re: Boom! Hard drives!
For the record burning to discs isn't a permanent solution as pretty much all discs suffer degredation over time and eventually your data becomes corrupt. I learned this the hard way when I lost work from about a few years ago because the disc is packed with CRC errors now. Unfortunately it's even worse now because the… -
