I found the answer to number 2 which was the one that was annoying me the most. Check it out I find this tool to be a huge time saver open 3d files or textures since I can just go open in photoshop and jump right down to our nested texture directory root.…
Thanks for all the great comments! @yakonusuke. I'll be doing a quick polishing pass on everything tomorrow, so I'll take a look at the curves also. @Vovosunt. OMG SPARKLY JAKE!! OMG OMG Finally ingame. Mask's to go! Skinning was a bit tricky and there are still a few minor issues to sort out. Boy Valve really make things…
Might help other people to say how you fixed it. Off the top of my head I think you have to run the game once for the gameinfo.txt to show up in the root TF2 folder. You also have to set the path to the gameinfo.txt in guistudio. Since it handles both Orange box and HL2 if you haven't installed or launched HL2 it will…
Certainly not my intention. I don't view you as a jerk, and I understand your logic. One Example: RIP Iron Lore: http://www.quartertothree.com/game-talk/showthread.php?t=42663 I agree that there are other, some more important, issues at the root of our problems in this industry.

It would have to be an…
Oh yes Dukie, I recall those segments too. I still recall with vivad horror when a crooked real estate broker cut off this 66 yr old ladies hand in hopes she'd bleed to death and he could buy up her estate, prob was she did die, but not before she buried her hand and grew herself back with roots and dirt on her. Wow!
You can't really get that effect - which is anisotropic specular highlights - without doing anisotropic specular highlights. They're not hard to implement and a quick Google will find you the adjustments you need to make to the specular model and as far as I'm aware it's totally possible under webgl. Assuming you can do…
This week I have been doing more gesture drawing and practicing the robo-bean from the Proko course. Still finding this pretty difficult, especially for poses that have a twist so need to practice more. The house I drew whilst following along with one of Trent Kaniuga's drawing tutorials, but I've started workinng on one…
@Dragonar Hey thanks a lot! i really like the idea about tree and root, i will definitely do that :) it does look a bit plain right now. I m going to look for some pictures and make moodboard, that should help. I would love to make it more stylized and cartoony, but I also dont know how to achieve that. once I will have…
