I am a big fan of the horror, psychological thrillers, and in my opinion it all comes down to understanding. If you don't understand you fear it. A game that is unpredictable is scary, and it goes into life as well. Take for example Eternal Darkness. You go into that game and the unexpected happens.... your memory slot for…
Good catch on the hands/feet guys! Thanks so much. I like easy tweaks. Dude duncan seeing the way you push the proportions on Chole totally makes me want to do that to him. It looks so awesome. I am not sure yet tho. It's tempting. It took me a while to make decent low(er) poly clothes. I build almost all of my clothes by…
I can only imagine what your mix files must look like for the break dance, heh. You might find puppetShop limiting because it has 3 layers for its clips, the transition tool is really just a faked planted key and the clip management is a bit cumbersome. But you can't beat it for rig flexibility, need 50 arms, ok. Its also…
Bush:Took a zero deficit and showered the rich in tax breaks Created unfunded drug benefit programs Raided social security and medicare Purposed privatizing Social Security, let people gamble it in the stock market, yea because that wasn't about to melt down... Ignored critical intelligence about 9/11 Created secret…
I teach game design at an institution that has not yet been mentioned here. I fully agree with most of these posts - for $70K - $80K for a Bachelor's is outrageous - I got my Master's from a traditional university for less than $30K - less than a decade ago. However, my degree is not in "Game Design" but in "Technology,"…
Let me start of with a quote from Murdoc [ QUOTE ] This isn't a rant, Max is fine, but modeling is a pain in the ass, it takes 3-4 steps to do one thing when it only takes 1-2 steps in XSI/Maya. [/ QUOTE ] I am trying to go back to 3Ds max again after 4 years of using Maya. I started in Max in school and I do believe it…
So I have spent the last couple of days learning a bunch of new things and wrapping up the sculpts on this pillar. So first up will be the final High Poly sculpts from Mudbox. So again, I feel that I learn a lot of new techniques and these pieces reflect that from what I have previously done on this project. Next up, here…
This is entirely dependant on the individual. Just as there are those who have a natural talent for 2D work but can't hardly manage to wrap their heads around 3D, are there tons of 3D artists who find themselves eternally frustrated by an inability to work up so much as a passable scribble. It all depends on what level…
absolutely :) from my brief observation there seems to be several technical problems in that work that contribute to the lack of "beauty". the assets themselves do not look satisfactory and have some inconsistency issue. here are some areas that are noticeable right away: 1. models dont follow the aesthetic style of the…
How did you feel about the deadline? The deadline was alright for me, I ended up starting a new job tho so it made it tighter for me than it should, had it not been for the extension I would not have finished. How did you feel about the scope of the contest? I do feel the scope combined with the deadline may have scared…
