you lost me a bit on the roof. Inside walls and such should snap on the same grid as the outside, so that all of your portals (windows, doors, etc.) line up as well. You don't need a "bridge" the bridge can be built into the interior pieces. For roofs, I tend to just make coresponding pieces to the walls. i.e. angled…
Yup, played for about 2 hours last night and I'm already +$600 or so. Pretty neat. The tower game is the only one I love as the Spinner one is lame and the Keystone/Bloodstone one is confusing as all fuck, just like Craps. I do love how it feels like I'm in a pub playing on a table. The music, the ambient noise, the…
Like Rick said. It depend on who you working for. If its a studio with a few titles that you know of you dont need to worry to much and they probably already has some kind of pipeline for freelancers. If you never heard of the guys you should ask for some of the money upfront. Make a small deadline like one week of work.…
What I found that helps (from pressurising the other way for scuba diving) is when you are doing whatever you do (yawn, chew etc.) is to straighten your neck out like you are trying to be taller than you are, then tilt your head to one side like trying to touch your ear to your shoulder. Do this and chew etc. and it should…
For those of you having trouble getting past the ASCII graphics... http://www.bay12games.com/forum/index.php?topic=43260.0 Basically it runs beside your game window and renders everything you're doing in isometric 16 bit (Ithink) graphics, and you just use the actual game window as basically your control console. It's…
When talking about contrast, remember you have way more than just value to help sharpen textures. You can draw on hue contrast, warm/cool contrast, shadow color vs light color contrast, etc etc. Using all of them in conjunction will result in a sharper texture than just using values. I did a quick paintover to show what I…
sorry i got busy and didnt get around to replying in the other thread you asked. perks are unlimited bandwidth(barring gamespy's up/downtime) and storage(though nothing stupidly crazy). zips and large files need to be hosted on FilePlanet. downside is you need thier ad banner code on ALL of you .html pages, as has been…
I have installed the new update and all my zbrush files, ZPR, ZTL, etc ... lost the association to Zbrush. I can right-click and open the option to open this file with the desired software, but the files will adopt the ugly Zbrush icon instead of the native zpr or ztl .. etc. Can please anyone help? I have been trying to…
hi guys, i been tryin to figure out this whole normal mapping business today with little success... Im using Max 7's render to texture and my problem is the normalmap seems to be baked by the low poly mesh or somethin? Here is my two objects: One is a edit polygon cylinder with a unwrap modifier on top and the other is a…
So I know I've been really inactive (for those who've noticed). But basically here's what I've been up to in a nutshell; graduated college, did contract work for Victory studios, doing alot of website/flash/graphic design, odd jobs involving digital art basically. So I recently got a full time job here, pay is decent.…
