Re: Stability in the game industry worry
<-- I didn't want to move for jobs every couple years. I know too many people that have continously moved for the jobs in the industry. I want to set down roots, so I went back to IT. I now play games purely for my enjoyment and do art in my free time. I guess, you can say I was one of those that couldn't hack it.. I got… -
Re: Student Loan Forgiveness of 2012
Because the root of the issue is the universities having easy access to bottomless student loan funding, and growing their costs, tuitions and prices like a sponge to constantly absorb a little bit more. Bring the federal government into this with the endless supply of taxpayer's money (hey, we'll just print more if they… -
Re: (Finished) Abandoned Train Station (UE4)
Messed with the composition of the scene. I think this one reads much better. As for the story side: Idea 1: Just trying to show how beautiful nature can be, how fast it can reclaim what was once ours. Not saying that this is a zombie world but defiantly something has taken a toll on mankind. Thats why I put " I Am In… -
Re: 3D Characters
Is all of this sculpted? Because it looks very lumpy. Generally you're much better off doing hard surface detail in a root program like Maya or Max and then do nicks and scratches in a sculpting program. The cloth also needs some more study and reference. It looks decent at the bottom of the pants, but it really falls… -
Re: baking (fur) shells, turning a 3D volume into a series of stacked planes w/ alpha
the combed look of colossus' fur was achieved by offsetting the various fur layers gradually from root to tip. sounds like a ton of work back then but with the smooth silhouettes we expect today i assume you're also looking into some sort of styling tool. 6 or 8 layers won't cut it and with alpha diithering it will… -
Re: mall massacre
We're on the same page danr. I'm all for proper gun control laws, but lets also work on getting to the root of the issue. I don't buy into the idea that we should do nothing for the mentally ill because it is too big of a problem. Might as well stop fighting aids and why worry about that pesky cancer if its going to take… -
Re: Workstation vs. consumer hardware
stimpack ive just gone the otherway and found the same thing ;-) but must say its probably to do with the stability of extra tools and size of scene. and im not impressed with my quadro at work. im sure if you want to veiw big scenes in wireframe then it kicks ass but for shaders etc consumer cards seam much better and… -
Re: Computer Games Actually Good For Kids
Possibly... I mainly mention this because every single day, humans (consciously or not) evaluate risk, probability, tons of other things which are deeply rooted in mathematics, often without even thinking about it. One of the points the book makes is that while a lot of people think they understand probability, when they… -
Re: Airborn first Release!
sigh. Both steam and non steam don't work for me, and this is a separate pc than the one I was using before. I don't get what I'm doing wrong. I copied the Airborn folder and shortcut to my C:\Program Files (x86)\Unreal Tournament 3 root folder, then edited the shortcut to read: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Unreal Tournament… -
Re: first time 3ds max
thank you all for the tips. yes this is the first time I am trying on 3D. I have my roots in graphic 2D design but I made a deal with myself: every year I have to learn a new program. This year is 3ds max, last year was After Effects, 2 years back Flash/Action script. I first was planning on doing 3ds max first but the…
