I saw this video from Extra Credits last night (great series..watch it if you haven't heard of it) and they touched upon a genre long forgotten and a surprising realization of the debate of female characters in games. I feel like trying some of the games out for myself. What do you guys think about it? [ame="…
well first things first, what are you using for reference? because i get the feeling you might not be using good ones. If you don´t have nice refs already then grabbing images from a scan such as this one would be the first step https://www.3dscanstore.com/3d-head-models/male-head-3d-models/male-05-head-scan-cleaned .
@slipsius and @Steve Schulze, Is there more info on those? I have a feeling this might be something students would do. Would like to provide references to back my standing when I explain it to them. Found this : http://rasterweb.net/raster/2013/05/16/printing-violations-part-iii/ I'll need to start editing the first post…
I use my real name on Polycount. :) Just subdivide the hull of the smooth ship into planks, and separate them out. You don't actually have to piece it together from individual planks. http://gsenorway.files.wordpress.com/2010/05/wooden-boat.jpg For the wood splinters, just get good alphas. Snake hook with a dotted alpha…
WIP 05 @Tuscon: The Caravan actually does move across the screen in the game. I could move them somewhere else slightly to reduce the tangency, but if they do make a tangency, it is somewhat inevitable since in-game they do animate. Still need to figre out a better shape for the horse statues and trees. The trees need to…
I thought the artic HDR scene was awesome. I don't get why they had to rehash some of the old tests with new shaders but I suppose it does give a good comparison between 05 and 06. And yes! they fixed the airship pilots retarded face! The valley scene absolutely crawls and looks very boring. So yeah the main stand out to…
Well, heres one reason to use .mac http://www.macrumors.com/2008/05/09/back-to-my-mac-used-to-catch-laptop-thieves/ Another would be the bookmark / calender / mail / dock syncing But no it doesn't accommodate shared users on the same file repository or versioning of files. I don't know how long drop box can, as they are…
While not related to Racers, this does relate to the ridiculousness involved: http://toucharcade.com/2010/05/07/edge-back-on-the-app-store-again-and-on-sale/ 'Thanks to us the word "edge" is now free to exist on the App Store like on any other marketplace, and games like Mirror's Edge, Shadow Edge, Killer Edge Racing or…
Saw this the other day, thought it was pretty darn beautiful. And it's made in Malmo, Sweden, so it must be indie: (HD recommended!) [ame] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oKL6-0Jg3MI[/ame] Oh and yeah, seems like the Humble Indie Bundle made a cool $1M in about 7 days :P…
the gas lettering does not look like its conformed to an arc, loks like its just individual leters rotated and placed,, no real flow. the texture is really blury specialy for a 1024 the photosourced numbers http://www.swamppolitics.com/news/politics/blog/2008/05/16/P5170253.JPG dont seem to match the style and the rest of…
