Re: What made you become an indie? And if you didn't yet, why not?
Nice article Ben. Yeah I should have clarified, I don't use peoples code as the only source of learning but look at the documentation and help like constantly (Sort of offtopic but whats with all these companies moving their documentation online, sucks trying to code and not being able to check) Agree with the site, well… -

I am the Maker/Creator of a new 90-minute theatrical production aiming for a 2026/2027 AMC release. We are officially in Phase 0—there are currently zero models built, and I am recruiting a core team to build this world from the ground up.

Re: Remove this post
I think Eric already clarified but I thought I'd add this in as well. Shader and Material tend to confused by artists as well. A Shader is the framework for a Material, so this can be created either in code or in a node based editor. The shader defines the properties of a material. A Material is the compiled… -
Re: What software do you guys prefer and why? Unity or UE4
I still kinda prefer Unity. It's just a bit nicer to use and the way things are set up makes more logical sense to me. But I'm very much more inclined to write code than deal with spaghetti nodes. Unreal feels very clunky in comparison, even though it shouldn't have to. -
Re: ShaderFX and alpha Mip Maps
I don't think it will work. The other state/blend options are hidden. You can try playing with them via MEL, but I believe that on the VP2 side when rendering they are ignored and will only end up in the HLSL/CG code. Mel to be run on the State Node: shaderfx -sfxnode "ShaderfxShader1" -listProperties [node_uniqueID] -
Re: What Are You Working On? 2014 Edition
Yea, that is pretty much it. But I did not write any shader code, it is all done inside the node based shader editor of the UDK. That looks pretty cool! I experimented with something similar recently, here I animated decimation: http://i.imgur.com/uy0euwz.gif The other food is now also alive, this is for the horses: -

Re: [3DSMax] “Sticky points”
I've done similar things in the past with hundreds of nodes linked to a surface and not had any unexpected performance issues I've not had cause to do anything like this in the last 6-7 years though so it could be that they've managed to outweigh advances in computing hardware with shitty code. in terms of use in… -
Re: Issues with UDK player spawning
http://forums.epicgames.com/showthread.php?t=741905 :poly136: I don't use the official frontend anymore, this free tool is 100% better (especially since the iOS beta).
