So it's been a while since I've updated- I've been up to a lot. I created a first person mesh of the disc launcher, cutting out all of the back and a large portion of the right side of the gun that you don't see. And pushing the detail since the mesh is right in front of you. The workflow I used for normal map creation and…
I'm a good friend with Jason and he gave me a discount code. $40 is about £25 - I think its really worth it. I'm buying the entire beginner section. I've been talking to Jason a lot and he's giving me the Boris rig for free aswell. I really don't think it's that "spendy" or a waste. Edit : With a 15% discount the entire…

Nvidia 690 is like.... $1000? WTF? Thats crazy crazy absurd overkill for a video card if you're doing game dev. For like $170 you can get a Nvidia 560TI, and in the majority of 3d apps you will see no difference. UDK/Cryengine would benefit from that card, but the cost/performance ratio is totally wanked. If you're a…
