Thanks for taking the time to elaborate, Pior. I do actually spend a lot fo time researching architecture, because that's really what I like modeling best. I own quite a few Francis K. Ching books, and tons of monographs on diverse topics such as victorian, gothic or east asian architecture. So I guess I am on the right…
While I don't personally care for the art style, aesthetically, that's definitely an opinion, and not the fact you presented it as. As if it were an objective truth that the art were terrible. I have no problem at all with critiquing. I have a problem with presenting an opinion as fact, and of calling anything that someone…
kk Thanks a lot for the input guys! I really appreciate it and it's very valuable! I think I get the fact that for high poly game models, you need to ease up on the support loops. A lot of times I do a couple of double smooths, then a final regular turbosmooth, since I"m going for photo realism. Is the reason for easing up…
i find it laughable hating a video game company. totaly pointless. i'm a gamer. but man if i'm going to waste my time hating something. i'd want it something that actualy has an impact (and i'm speaking as someoen who was sacked without notice from ea in a pretty shady manner") and untill the details come to light, which…
Hey guys, it's been some time since the last update. I've been in a journey! :) So, this is what I was ranting about in my last post: I've been working on a Maya plugin that takes a MD mesh as an input and spits out a full-quad version of it. Many of you may be familiar with the ZRemesher+TransferAttributes workflow.…
I really like it! The fact that you can quickly view all your stuff like that and then opt. to see break downs if you want is really nice. But a major downside to it is there is hardly any content, and that becomes very clear when you just go thru 3 images and your done (at the home section). Personally, I like to see…
I couldn't narrow it down to 1. It's like picking 1 film; I couldnt congratulate the 1 without feeling the weight of insulting the many that I respect. In all seriousness, there were so many great games of yesteryear that I loved intently and that sculpted my preferences subconsciously for the last 26 years that to pick 1…
Really a letdown on Nintendo's part this year, but that might be because they showed just about every game they're going to release the coming three years on last year's E3. And now they're not hyping them anymore, but new, yet less 'veteran' games instead. I'd imagine that with Metroid's new ability to aim at any time, it…
Any job that was just lost to out sourcing probably wasn't a stable job in the first place. The chances of the last guy in the door being the first out as soon as things slow down, are probably pretty high. Most places only outsource when their pinched and the pinch only lasts a short time. Places normally hire when…
You're mistaken because you're using the term "financial interest" incorrectly, AND associating him directly with the oil aspect of the company and it's motives. Some would rather evaluate all the facts. You're speaking more flame than fact, and it's misguiding. This film will be seen by many. To insult his message by…
