Re: Wife wants to play a MMO again....

I want smooth combat (if I'm running around the animation of an ability shouldn't make be stop where I am, play the anmation and then let me continue to run. excepting abilities with cast times), open worlds with lots of stuff to… -
Re: Making games replacing playing games?
I find myself looking at objects a lot in games and getting inspiration for projects I'm working on. It's interesting to look at how other artists put things together in games and then thinking about how you would do it differently, etc. Currently, I'm google eyed in SWTOR looking at all the hard surface modeling that went… -
Re: Games Industry Mentor
Sorry guys. I put up the latest episode last night, then and had to run off for some SWTOR launch stuff! I was meaning to put a post up here letting people know. Thanks Ben!

Re: London Eurogamer Expo, 22nd-25th
Hmmm. Well that was cool. Gotta say I went away disappointed with SWTOR, Zelda a bit meh, 3DS stuff and Guild Wars 2 (whaaaaat!?) -- BUT -- thought Skyrim, Rage and ICO/SotC looked amazing. The indie section seemed constantly busy, interesting and sweaty (smelly) with Blocks That Matter standing out for me. Disappointed I… -
Re: LODs tips & tricks or pure drudgery?
We had a similar thread at tech-artists.org: http://tech-artists.org/forum/showthread.php?t=239 To my suprise, lots of studios are hand-making them still (or outsourcing it). We don't have a solution for SWTOR yet, but we're just starting research- we're going to find a pretty automated solution (some 'archetype' character… -

So while I sit in my half-cubicle, Ill be sketching all day and… -
Character Creation

Taking what I have learned from the Zbrush project we just finished I am going to be making a full character from scratch based around any concept I choose.
