Re: L.A. Noire's 7 year dev cycle: Bad Management?
across the board could be taken a couple ways which I suppose I should explain. In one aspect I was reffering to the vancouver, toronto and san diego studios from which I have heard 1st hand accounts, not just isolated to the vancouver studio near me. It also was reffering to the generally horrible shit that goes on,… -
Re: art dump
thanks guys! Ferg - that mural you did was SWEET, I need to get me some more spraypaint. about shirts, my sis found a guy in town who does screenprinting, so i'm going to look into that, and finalize some designs, and start a facebook page for my "brand" I guess and start to promote myself. I'm JUST ABOUT done with these… -
Re: Normal map question
Normal maps have gradients to account for smoothing on the low poly's mesh normals yeah, maybe I should have said something more like "bit depth isn't the only advantage" as bit depth is an advantage with normals. Just that its not a straight up comparison of bit depth, if that makes any sense. Curved surfaces and… -
Re: Flakk Cannon - WIP
I'm pretty happy with this version. I did a major redo on the paint job which I think is looking a lot more realistic, and did some detail and color tweaks as well as a red basecoat under the yellow. There was some stuff I wanted to add like decals and a more orky color scheme to add a bit more of a warhammer feel, but… -
Re: T Pose
You also need to take into account bone LOD/culling (if your engine supports it). In bone culling you start losing the end of bone chains based on distance. If your model is in more of a relaxed starting pose you can actually start LOD'ing much sooner. This is particularly true with hands/fingers. It helps against the flat… -
Re: Invert Scale in Material World Position Offset?
i think you'd want to do this in the vertex shader really however... this "should" flip the point across the yz plane position - (2*position.x, 0, 0) Obviously you'd have to account for the object's position - which is fairly easy but then you'd have to account for orientation which is where things are going to get pretty… -

Re: Has anyone moved from a commercial modeling app to Blender?
Okay, but how do we know that when we try to communicate with you, you are indeed that e-mail address? Because the bugzilla account is literally only a password+e-mail address. More realistically, we just don't have the manpower to set that up, we can't even get a reliable system in place for making back-traces on windows.… -
Re: Terraria Online
I started playing after 1.1 came out. Put in about 65 hours into it so far. the most of any game on my steam account.... got my angel wings. downed the twins and destroyer the other day with a friend. Got my excaliber. Im a little disappointed in the items though. there are definitely some really cool ones. But there… -
Re: UDK - Material - Oren Nayar Help
When I referred to 'fresnel' I basically meant using the dot product of the normal and light vector and using a power term to fake a reflectance function. Oren-nayer assumes even reflectance and does not take into account variability in the 'micro facet' surface (unless I'm missing a large part of what oren-nayer is). What…
