Re: Article: Game Art Art
Great work indeed, some things I'd rename/add/change a little, hence plenty feedback sent to Simon :) @Mrfred, "down to 8 cycles per FPS" A cycle is normally one "pump" through the processor.

Re: Steam on Linux beta signup is live!
the fact that source comes to linux doesnt mean that the tools will be available for linux. there's a big difference between porting the game logic and translating the renderer and making the tools work. usually tools are hacked together way more than the game code since avg joe doesn't have to deal with it. -

you could do this: string $suffix = match("[0-9]+", `match "[[0-9]+]" $node`); or could use tokenize instead if you dont want to mess around with regex. The top code basically matched the [###] and then matches again for just numbers. -

Re: Vertex colors FBX problem.
Yeah this is an issue with old exporter. I think you can update the exporter even on old max versions. But just in case, here's a maxscript to add support vertex to handle vertex color/alpha by face, thanks to polytools3d on cgtalk. Has to be an editable mesh i think. ( fn BreakVerticesByColorAndAlpha node = ( mesh = copy…
