I got done a great deal more than I meant to today - But I did run into another problem. The UVs! Long story short I'm glad I kept the array of polygons (aka the cubes with holes in them) in a separate item / container / object AND made a backup before deleting everything in order to export to .fbx ; Turns out there are…
My 2 cents in talk ) Could anyone imagine 10 years ago that the most powerful package of that time - XSI - will be discontinued for no specific reason? I'm sure, no. What happened to it? After buying it, at first, Autodesk got a competitor to Max and Maya. Second, they just couldn't spend enought money on supporting 3…
Here at Vigil we are Hybrid: Core Hours are 10 to 5 and you must put in 8 hours of actual work. You can choose to work earlier or later as long as your 8 hours contain the time between 10 and 5. We have one hour unpaid lunch and two fifteen minute paid breaks. We have a concept called Focus Time that we shift into from…
Props! ART JAM - FRIDAY 27December2013 - 09January2014 So this art jam we will be doing props. The jam is to be focused more on textures and lighting (presentation) and less on the model. So I have determined a soft cap of 500 tri's. If you need more, then use them, but try not to put 500 into something like a crowbar if…
@Barnstable Thanks dude. For the high heels I still make her wear them simply because of the sexy-creepy concept. True that she was experimented before, but it doesn't mean that everything should thorn apart. I'm a big fans of "stitches" effects on creature's skin since Nemesis from Resident Evil 3. I understand what…
I've tried every method I understand to try to get this -command flag to accept more than one line of code but I've never had to write a script this way, so I can't figure it out. In this case, if you could provide an example line of code it would help me immensely with how to write the rest of my scripts. Below is an…
Flaringo: "If you have a model in a game, without the proper scripts you would be able to walk right through it, is that right? So if you want collision on that model, how would that work? How does it work in modern games? How did it work before?" From a purely technical standpoint you're actually dealing with two issues…
Radar Blob monster part #2. Asides from the monster, also the environment had to transform from a boring concrete monster to something more... alive. The idea was to connect the monster with the environment somehow. Again, sorry for the programmer MS Paint drawings hehe. Anyway, since the surrounding area was covered…
The player and thier lack of self moderation. The game doesn't need to change, the people who have problems do. [ QUOTE ] Dr. Orzack: "Dr. Orzack: That's correct. Usually, some type of intervention is needed. Video games used to be contained in arcades, so there were certain limits imposed on the amount of time that you…
2000 is a somewhat modest number these days. From what I've been seeing from upcoming MMOs, I'd say a good number to shoot for would be between 4-6k triangles (even that might be on the lower end). I think that's enough to avoid distracting faceting from typical game camera distances, and allowing for bigger details to be…
