Re: Hardware problem - BSOD BBCode 116 - HALP O_O
I am also going to +1 the notion of it possibly being the board. Does this only happen when the computer is under load (examples: running games for a while, or rendering in Max/Modo/Maya?). My guess is the northbridge could have overheated at some point or is faulty? Black screens are tough, as it is due to the CPU or… -
Re: Importance of monitor calibration in a video-game production.
I'm of the opinion it's near pointless to be calibrating because consumer screens are so poor today. Most TVs/720p panels crop 16 levels off either end of all three channels "NTSC safe" crushing the darks and lights beyond all recognition, have a ridiculous blue tint to try and look futuristic, a glossy panel over the top… -
Re: [Finished Works] + [ Work In Progress ] Weapons
Thanks guys! Hey everyone, here's another batch of work I did since my last work posted here. Got the chance to do a spaceship for the Marmoset team. Did a Tec-9 and an ssg + a p99 which are 2 full complete tutorials. 4k screens on my artstation. Hope you like them! https://youtu.be/XoM8nn_W4G0… -
Re: Are more 4K textures being used in games now?
Heya, Just because "4K" (meaning 4096*4096 really) is a thing doesn't mean that using "4K textures" is necessarily enough to carry something like a full character on screen. If anything, conservative/old school techniques consisting of splitting sheets logically and tightly is very much current and will not become… -
Re: Video Arcade- W.I.P. Environment Art
Honestly if you plan to use in a game there are several issues to consider that don't really get brought up around here much. drawcalls, overdraw, batchcount... they vary between engines. usually using 1 material per object is better than several.But on an object like this I can see reasons where one map ISN'T better. 1-… -
Re: Pineapple Smash Crew
Yo Rich. Looks great. Loving the little dude, nice a chunky, although I cant really tell what he is at this distance. Looks like Homer in a bright green space suit. Not sure I like the way the levels switch when being generated. Just walking into a void that suddenly snaps the screen to a new position, hmmm?.... Is there a… -
Re: ALL Game Engines Render WRONG
you are right. distortion is a natural behavior of any lens. but most games are played on a, in comparison to the entire human field of view, small area. for this reason we wouldn't want to use a huge field of view to begin with, and in many cases the distortion here would be negligible. there's also the fact that this… -
Re: Astroneer . . . And, blast off!
Ended up buying it after all, have some fun with it, though I did have an annoying issue that I had before with some other games, and thought I'll share the temporary solution for it. The issue is when you have dual monitors, the mouse keeps going outside your game and when you click, it leaves the game. I found a program… -
Re: New iPod
[ QUOTE ] to add a rant to the fun, kdr-wise, why is it that i can't download quicktime without downloading itunes? and to add insult to injury, you can't just choose to install quicktime seperately, you need to uninstall itunes afterwards. That ipod nano looks cool, though. i really wonder how clear the screen is, as the… -
postprocess material help
so, i've been cursing at this all evening, and googling and asking around has got me well on my way to the result I want but i'm still bugged by a giant problem. the result i'm trying to get here, is a fisheye effect, but only on the edges. sort of a vignette-masked distortion, if you will a short explanation of how this…
