Re: A Few Questions ! :)
I can only answer some of these questions since I don't do character work. I can give you some high level career advice but obviously take that with a grain of salt and pepper. So really when talking about next-gen they're talking about better rendering technology. Definitely read up some Physically Based Rendering, its… -
Technical Artist for Next Gen Title
Are you a toolmaker and a tinkerer that is ready to take on new technologies? Do your scripts, tools, and gadgets allow artists the power and flexibility they need to excel? Can you digest the intricacies of next-gen engines for deployment on Xbox360 and PLAYSTATION3 consoles? Can you add that extra panache to visual… -
Re: Which software do you hate the most to work with (for whatever reason)?
There is Large File Storage (LFS) for git. The project I'm on now has us using Sourcetree because it's one of the few(?) that supports it? I was going to hate on Maya a bit in this thread, because it makes life so damn difficult at every turn, and teaching it to new people who have expectations out of their lives is an… -
Re: Oblivion xbox360
What a pointless disscussion. Getting down on speedtree is the same as getting mad at high end 3D artists for not creating and placing each strand of hair. I guess programing wind is a cop-out for hand done animation? Bone based animation is not real animation compaired to vertex animation? At what point do you consider it… -
Scribblenauts!
Who is going out and buying it today! I'm just waiting for my friend to get out of class and I'm going to get it. It looks incredibly innovative and new. The developers are among the pioneers of next-gen gameplay in my opinion. Make a game look as pretty as you want but when you come across a game that you've never… -
Cubemap generation problem - studio max
So I've been trying to generate cubemaps inside max using either of the two methods listed on the wiki ( metal Bump9 / Reflect Refract map) but everytime I try to do a pick object and create, nothing gets done. I get a little picking icon on my mouse pointer, but I can't seem to select anything in the scene. I've tried… -
Re: L.A. Noire's 7 year dev cycle: Bad Management?
AU Gamedev has left a mark on me personally, ive had my fair share but to add my own little tidbit to all this: I lived with and worked together with a senior engineer who worked on LANoire for nearly 2 years up until launch. And for the most part he enjoyed his time there. I know the guy well enough to know hes not one to… -
Re: War torn subway (Feedback Wanted) UE5
Hey thanks for the feedback I really appreciate it. Here are some screen shots of my pureref board. When it comes to the station walls I am using a material that i got off of quixel. I'll take your advice and play with the UV tiling to get a more accurate scale. I'll also go back into my subway car substance project and… -
Re: Maya Autosave?
there are a few scripts and plugins to do it, but they're all at least a little lame. as you can see from the script rebb linked, there are only options for Maya to check on the state of things after a state changes - you change selection or you change tool. So it's possible that even with a 2 minute autosave interval you… -
Re: Sigh... it's one thing when people you don't know online promote game piracy...
sorry to call you on this, but that's utter horse shit. to make an argument that you've lost 71.2% of your playerbase by having an un-piratable platform is just wrong, flat out. he even got the response from someone "we pirate because we can". now, if you were to say you'd lose SOME of your playerbase due to having an…
