So the learning styles thing is interesting, but I don't think it's really an either or thing. For instance, let's take a hypothetical tutorial on how to make 3 point lighting. I could write the condensed version: * Add a key light to the upper left of the character * Add a rim light behind, and to the right of the…
First shot: Lacking a good focal point, got some moonlight on the left and a light on the groundfloor but without lighting anything interesting. You could try removing the rails closer to the camera and focusing on the ground floor, or moving the lamp up to the second floor and focus attention there. Also make sure the…
I'm highly skeptical of his claims. If he provides false numbers that make him look like the victim and people believe him, he stands to gain from that. I don't trust anybody that claims a loss on something they never had and could never actually measure. You can't know what people would choose to do in the absence of used…
Bloom in games isn't really based on any sort of physical or optical camera effect. It's a simple post process that works by creating a copy of the rendered frame, blurring it, and then adding it back on top (usually resulting in bright areas becoming brighter). Pior's example image is using a diffraction filter which…
Oh man this sounds so cool, if there is no time limit I am totally getting in on this. I am no where near to the level of the animators from LoL but I bet it will be an awesome learning experience. Going to be lazy and copy/paste your post layout. Will update if and when I can get around to doing these in my evenings!…

Well I added in some basic state AI, so AI can be assigned multiple teams and will attack opposing teams from an array. Currently has three states of AI, Safe -> Caution -> Engaged. Implemented personal "sound system" so if a gunshot is fired nearby, AI will move towards the shot location if not currently already engaging…
[ QUOTE ] ive heard things like that jgarland. I've also heard the opposite--that working out(lifting) with no food in you can cause your body to harvest its own muscle for energy. From what I can tell, the best time to work out is about an hour after you've eaten, and then to eat protein immediately after lifting. Ive…
Looking good, huge improvements. Crits: - The level of dirt at the bottom of the white area, is about right for the level of dirt next to the ground. The bottom piece needs that treatment also, and maybe a bit more. - It looks like you dropped in onto a grass plane. Blending props into the environment is also something to…
