Hello, I mostly do C++ coding for computer vision but lately, I've been playing with game making. I came across the problem of generating curvature maps, and I figure since I can work with images from my CV work and read normals off of 3D models and normal maps, I could probably make a little program to make curvature…
Hi, Runic Rampage is an old school Hack 'n' Slay in the style of the Gauntlet series and elements of Beat-Em-Ups like Golden-Axe. You can read more about the game on indiedb: http://www.indiedb.com/games/runic-rampage We are working on the game for about 1 year and the core gameplay is nearly finished. In figures:* coding:…
Hey guys, back again with more WIP's As some of you know, i just made all three Predator's from the AVP movie. Me and two of my friends are starting up a mod for Half-Life2 (cant say anything yet though) and i was trying to come up with an alien design. It used the base model of the Predator, and also similar features of…
We made an online editor to present and share 3D models, and I wanted to know what you think of it? https://govie-editor.de/en Create 3D interactions within seconds, as easy as using PowerPoint. Our online software is a tool for everyone and at the same time offers a wide range of functions to build complex web…
Lol polycount is still alive ! [even tho its shrinking exponentially] Its refreshing to see topic with more then 3 replies I guess I cant really provide with too much inside on the main question but here are plenty of tech artist that can give you that side of the problem also maybe someone could be able to suggest…
There is no best way. You are trying to find an easier way instead of manually cleaning up all that geometry and i hear you, nobody likes to do a lot of boring repetitive tasks. But there are a lot of options depending on your end goal. If you want to do a close up render you might want to go ahead and combine all that and…
I've also thought about doing this for a while for a "fall back" plan. My extended family are all farmers and I have sooOOome exposure to it, even though I've never done it on a daily basis. Actually, all I've ever done when visiting was get chased by chickens after feeding them...crazy bastards. But I actually enjoy…
Testing and statistics. You want to make sure that the stats that are to be balanced can be accessible externally via a script language such as LUA or XML. Don't ever hardcode stats: because you want to exclude the programmers from the balancing problem and have them work on more important parts of the project. It is then…
Is there any way to turn off autosaving? I can't find an option to do so in preferences, and I'm usually pretty good at saving regularly. It gets a little annoying when I'm flowing in my work and the autosave pops up preventing me from doing anything for a minute or two... EDIT: After spending more time with 4r5 I'm…
Yeah don't spend over $1500. Anything over that and the price curve is out of whack, you'll pay a disproportionate amount for a slight gain in performance for the high end CPU and GPU. If you have more money to burn, put it into a nice 24 or 27 inch IPS screen with good color accuracy. You do not need a professional GPU. A…
