Re: Slow frame rate question
To elaborate on what poopipe said, having a slower/smoother animation while rendering an equal amount of frames isn't possible (or at least not a good idea; it will turn choppy). You have 200 frames at 24fps. That's an 8 and 1/3 second turntable. If you want a 10 seconds animation at 24fps you'll need 240 frames. If you… -
Re: What Are You Working On? 2011 Edition!
While I'm not much of a concept artist myself I've noticed a lot of them seem to make their brushes on a per project basis. It's tough to make a one size fits all brush so it makes sense to doodle out whatever fits the scope and style of the current piece and then work with that. My friend Johan has Define Brush Preset set… -
Re: No Man's Sky
I guess this is a subjective arguement we are making, personally I don't think the amount of area you can explore necessarily means its a game that's worth more money. Look at spore, it was massive but there just wasn't much point to it all. Survival games tend to be fairly cheap and early access at the moment ARK : £23,… -
Re: WildStar
That doesn't really make sense. You have games like Rift where there is no subscription, and everyone is on an equal leveling field. Everyone starts out just as weak, and everyone has to level up just the same. So what difference does it make? Then you have Guild Wars 2 that just has the box sale. Not to mention pretty… -
Re: A Game developer's podcast
One thing to note on that is that those kinds of subject matter run dry very quickly - we've discussed them before, but we quickly found that we ran out of things to say before we even got to a 15-minute conversation. It's true that Penny Arcade does videos of 15 minutes that go really in-depth, but quite frankly, we don't… -
Re: Character Shizzle
Hmmm good job, but you could do it better in my opinion. Specular is serious bad. In my opinion you do it in 15 minut and said this is ok, but it's ugly. First color specular is only used for conductors (inverted specular color is only used for some engines). Conductors in you model is in helmet and buttons, and that is… -

Xbox 360 output options
I have been searching the web and unable to find any good opinions on this, so thought I'd consult Polycount for wisdom and guidance. I bought a 360 a couple weeks ago and am currently using component cables. That's all good, except that my TV is now completely out of component jacks and I have to unplug my PS2 to use the… -
