[ QUOTE ] photoshop crashes on me sometimes when i erase stuff from a layer. 3dmax also crashes occasionally. saving is gooood =) [/ QUOTE ] The same bullshit happens to me and a few others here at work. Every once in a while Photoshop CS hates it if you erase or use the clone tool on a layer and restarting the program…
Same here, though I tend to skip it. I feel that its mostly paranoia when people assume HR going about an applicants background trying desperately to find ways to reject them on the basis of race and sex. Like they even have the time lol. Though I have seen several cases where the matter has influence (the absolute worst…
Nope Nope Nope. Don't drop money on a college that volunteering for a game development team on your freetime will provide you. If you want to make games, literally make a game. Quality will vary, but you will literally be making something that professionally you make anyways. $30k with a degree you've already earned? This…
C4D was my first package because it was so ridiculously easy to learn. In a studio environment with automation it will totally lose out against Maya, and likely Max too. But for single artists, such as freelancers or students, it is quite powerful. I like that it's quite logical in how it works and less intimidating than…
Well usually when looking through portfolios you might have to look at hundreds of them, and at least for me a demo reel is not something I want to see unless it's effect or animation work. As for the demo reel above, the first prop ran for 35 seconds, and I think most would want to see the next thing in maybe 4 seconds,…
Does anyone here have any experience/know anyone using Modo for Arch-Viz? I'm currently shopping for my first commercial license (been on student license for the past few years) and undecided on which package to go for. Modo comes in almost £1000 under the alternatives (Max/C4D) and if it fits the bill, it'll be tempting.…
But couldn't the same arguement be used? Just because its expensive doesnt give you the right to say "Hey, fuck it.. Its okay I pirate everyone elses hardwork because their software is expensive... But as soon as we talk about 60 dollar games, burn the witches!" There alternatives to 3Ds Max and Photoshop, even 'great'…
So, what you're saying is that Indie in 2.0 is the same Indie as now. And you've just lumped them together with Freelance/Modder/Hoobyist? So we are now getting Indie at a much more reduced price than now? I just want to have that clarified. Indie in 2.0 will have no revenue restrictions and can be used to make your Indie…
I've been learning 3dsMax, Zbrush and CAD, mainly focusing on Max. I've worked on: A Game-ready Character Design Project An Event Design Project (Designing an event booth for a convention in CAD and Max) I also worked on a team that produced two VR Historical recreation projects. I don't have any pictures readily available…
One of the things I usually advise my students is to avoid doing your own designs. You get judged on that as well as your ability to model. There is a problem with modelling something you designed, how do I know that you modeled it exactly like the design. Since you made up the design I have no idea if you are able to stay…
