Re: New programmer looking for help breaking in
It's not too different to getting a job as an artist. Make example games or tools. Show everyone the example games and tools. Post in the various unity or unreal forums and subreddits about these games or tools. Maintain a blog talking about programming you're working on or have done. Commit code to GIT hub.

Re: [Texture Atlas] ~ How can I UV a cylinder with a vertically tiled texture into an atlas?
Lightmapping. Multitexture. Etc. http://wiki.polycount.com/wiki/MultiTexture http://wiki.polycount.com/wiki/Light_map When you load a texture in a material, it can only be assigned to a single UV channel. But you could assign a different texture to another UV channel. For example. A bump texture could use UV 1 and be tiled… -
Re: Learning to bake HP to LP, use 3rd party software?

Re: Next gen car - questions

Reflections are what it's all about, hence Mlichy's example of the warthog ( reflections aren't very important for that one). It's just not viable to try and attain perfect reflections with normalmaps since you'd need something like… -

Re: Various UE4 related questions
1) Yes you can do cloth simulation in UE4, there's an example of it in the example content projects. https://docs.unrealengine.com/latest/INT/Resources/ContentExamples/Cloth/index.html 2) You can also use jiggle/spring bones instead of cloth simulation, it's more commonly used in games, at least in the last generation,… -
