Re: Render farms - how do they work?
With backburner: Manager receives copy of scene you want to render, sends it out to the servers, and assigns each server a frame to render. When server completes the frame, it saves the frame to some network location and requests next unrendered frame from the Manager. Rinse/Repeat until the whole sequence is done. Slower… -
Re: Medieval/Fantasy Game Level
Currently waiting for my team to wake up before we start re-blocking out the entire scene in UDK. What you see above is a rough idea of what you might find in the level. It took a while to figure out what we wanted the overall level to look like in terms of scale so that it seemed fun and interesting to play in. Nobody… -
Re: John Carmack making VR headsets!
First of all HE IS NOT MAKING IT! HE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH CONSTRUCTING THAT HMD. He is merely testing a prototype for another person. This guy is the real genius behind the whole thing. http://www.mtbs3d.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?f=120&t=14777 There's also a website that launched on the 1st. oculusvr.com Its down of… -
Re: Scale problem with Juggernaut set
After a little work I got things up and running. Turns out Juggernaut has been scaled up 15%. I extracted the files from dota with GCFScape, decompiled them with Cannonfodder's StudioCompiler and then I used an old maya script for .SMD import. The SMD importer was outdated though (using maya 2015) so I had to remove a few… -
Re: gaming habits
It's not gaming, it's lack of self-discipline. Basically, I think, if you became this addicted to gaming, it means your brain uses it as a way to escape from reality and hard work. And what is 3d art? Bingo! It is hard work. And afaik brain uses enormous amount of energy in order to do intellectual work. For your own good… -
Re: Who is excited about Mafia 2 ?
I've played it like 4 times or so now. I have to say I really like it overall. The amount of detail, lighting/shadow quality is very impressive. I have a decent machine, nothing too crazy, but it runs fine for me, no issues at all. The only things that I would like to see fixed/changed if possible is crouching whenever u… -
Re: Kharon's Summer Project - 2014
Another day, fairly fresh out of bed. Yesterday's work incoming. Hopefully this google drive website thing works so I can actually embed my images instead of attaching all of them? If so, I'll make sure my previous images are available there and update the earlier posts to embed them. Warmup: Sky Rose: The warmup was a… -
Re: New Game Artist but with $0 in the bank?
Pro-tip (I'm pro...because I've worked at Burger-king, Taco Bell, and a long list of other jobs before I started doing this for a living) Don't hand in a resume for dishwasher/fastfood positions...just the application Skip the job fairs. The guy at the job fair is probably a regional manager who doesn't give a shit..he's… -
Re: Star Wars Ion Grenade
Hey man! You're off to a good start, here's me chiming in with some feedback. 1. Tint of red is off to the reference, also feels like a hard plastic instead of a scratched up deep red metal. 2. Looking at this bump and the reference, it looks like you need to make this about 40% bigger, it'll probably help out with it… -
Re: [WIP] Japanese Level
Finally managed to get some time this past week to work on the level, about 40 hours over 4 days. The major progress is the framing and support structure of the buildings (Where it's visible under the roof from outside, and for the 2 rooms you can visit in as well). I also added some decorative pieces to the tops of the…
