Not bad stuff if these are free / cheap tutorials, I'm sure they're great for beginners. Personally I'd recommend you hone your own art before releasing tutorials such as these unless they're just meant as an exercise in showing students where various tools and buttons are. Polycount is famed for it's harsh critting, so…
I wish I was Gir. This is the point however where I ask you to adopt a friendlier tone please. You are entitled to your opinion as much as I am but pontificating without bringing forth evidence does nothing but paint an unpleasant picture of you, which, in this industry, is a luxury no one can afford. Hematite: Galena:…
I'm actually going to suggest that this may be your drugs. New side effects can happen, especially if you're taking any generic drugs and are getting one (or both) from a new manufacturer. I've taken Effexor and Ritalin together before -- every single day, at about 2-3 PM, my energy completely crashed and I would go almost…
I currently work at SCAD's e-Learning department doing development on the online course materials, so i think i might be in a position to throw in on this. Just to clarify, I'm not here to pitch anything. I do media design here and selling people on SCAD is not my buissiness or my interest. I did my undergrad here and most…
Rock on dude! I'm in a very similar position, been smashing my head against the wall trying to make this sort of dream happen myself over the past couple years with nothing really tangible to show for it, just learned hard lessons and developed actual practices for indie development. Haven't shown my face in places like…
I would find a real picture (not a render) of the knife you are working on, or as close to it as possible, and try to replicate it. That is the best way to start tuning materials and mesh details. You have too many factors right now working against you to get an accurate shading model. I say temporarily ditch any sort of…
Hello everyone, we are working on a large scale game called House of Demons. In the game you have to survive in a massive mansion filled with demons. The game is open world sandbox and you can craft different gadgets to use against the demons and to survive. I must stress that this is an ambitious project, however it is…
What do we need? We are looking to have the initial proof of concept demo of Epoch out by October 31st. The project has been in production since early April with a team of 25. As we want this demo to be of a quality to gain funding and continued production, we are looking to bring in more team members in every aspect of…
Always wished you could work on an indie sci-fi coop game for PC? Have lots of great ideas on how to make games fun? Lonely in the evenings with more spare time than you know what to do with? Then have I got a deal for you! I'm a programmer looking for an artist that is passionate about game dev, who can commit 3-4 months…
Hi 3dLee, I'm always happy to see more Cryengine projects. I really like your goals - I've been thinking about doing something similar, as my current project won't be released for a while and having something to put into a portfolio would be nice. I don't have many crits at the moment since you have obviously just started…
