Re: Problem with specular in Unreal Engine 4
Sorry it's confusing. PBR is not so simple when it comes down to the nuance and there's a lot of bad practice. I checked before replying and knew it was Radiance. Specular doesn't affect AO so yes, it's contradicting him on that bit specifically. My post is based off the UE4 source code. TLDR; The Specular input handles… -
Re: DS 3dviewer
Aww, I would love to see some updates to this viewer. I'm currently testing some scenes that use large amounts of separate objects and textures but it sometimes hangs upon loading. I get some error with texture paths showing two or more slashes '/' Also, there seems to be a problem with unloading objects as sometimes the… -
Re: New post - the noob kind
C#!! Have you done any game coding in XNA? Like have you tried to create a basic level in it? If so, that would be a hard core. (Even in c++.) From your post count I assume that you never posted any of your work here so, do that here in pimp and preview section and have it judged. the critics on your work will help you… -
Re: Environment Concepts: morgues, and medical wings!!
The first one reminds me of the medical scanner room from the Firefly episode 'Ariel'. If it's supposed to be a morgue, I'd suggest adding some harsh fluorescent lighting, lots of stainless steel and maybe some drainage tubes coming from the autopsy table. It also seems kind of impractical to have a depression in the… -
Re: Max equivalent of modo's Geometry To Brush?
one could write a script that stores the depth Buffer as greyscale images to either* the FrameBuffer (like in the screen of Modo) * clipboard using DotNet * to a specified or asked location on the disc of course one can catch the bounding box size of the Geometry and place an orthographic camera in front of it (centering… -
Re: Halloween Co-Op Idea
Actually it's just pretty straight forward, if you don't want to play with flashy addons or mods. Addons can be installed in the id1 folder, for example the retexture project goes in the id1/textures/ folder extracted. The most basic steps: 1. install quake 2. unzip <engine> in quake folder 3. run <engine> Controls and… -
Re: Portfolio critique time
Cheers all. Nice to know it looks like it is mainly on track. CV link and info should be coming on the front page, and I'll probably add email to the top menu. Easy enough to provide a texture flats button. Thank god for pre-planning the code. Bronco. This is going to sound bad, but I don't actually have much in the way of… -

Re: Laptop-o-rama
Depends what you want/need. I just got my wife a Gateway for $600. Dual core Intel, and an ultra-brite screen. It works great for her and looks great. The battery life is also supposed to be really good on it. She hasn't ran it dead yet, so I don't know how long it will actually last. According to CNet, it will go 4 hours.… -
Re: Lets talk middle generation console upgrades
Couple points. 1. PC's are better than consoles. 2. The difference between the two is more than the actual hardware, its the mentality. 3. Getting rid of a segment of the market is not as ideal as helping it evolve. One of the reasons for mobile success is what? A shared operating system/platform. You can have a hundred…
