O rly? Would you consider the United States Department of Treasury and Census Bureau to both be part of the "scare media," as you put it? As far as foreign holdings of US Treasury securities, China and Japan are about dead even (when you include Hong Kong, which is listed separately). The thing is, Japan is a bit more…
Edited for change of concept Hi all. 1985 is an FPS VR Project worked on by myself. The gam eplay is post nuclear war and set in London. Key features will be the story line and the detail which I am hoping to inject to give the Tactical Area of Operations, and Forward operating base a lived in feel. The Game will feature…
You'll have to excuse my ignorance on the actual process and labor of making VFX (I'm actually kinda interested in learning myself), but I do have some thoughts based on my own observations with in-game VFX. I think generally speaking, I feel like your assets are burdened by a quality of being too 'automatic' or…
Hell yes would many games be better without violence. The default story for a game seems to be "man commits genocide". The moral of the story is that if you just kill enough people, you'll solve your problems. It's just a ridiculously shallow outlook on life. I'm having a hard time coming up with a lot of games that have…
Hey all, This is my first major post on Polycount so forgive me for being such a rookie! Anyways, its summer and theres lot of free time bouncing around before getting back to University. So I thought it would be a good idea to do some kind of project in the mean time. Earlier this year I visited San Francisco for a…
Some one call all the judges and tell them their fired, the rule of law no longer applies. Let out all the death row prisoners, everyone gets unlimited chances to fuck up their lives and no one will ever think bad of them. I'd be worried if society stopped passing judgement on chuckle heads. If he had survived and the…
I had assumed it was prototyping, but the way it works client side is that because of deadlines (I'm guessing) the artists that work in engine, never really get to see what things look like in game because that would delay a build since everyone is in such a mad rush. So this is a finished asset for the time being, not…
I'm very strongly in favour of Remain and will be voting to stay in the EU. I work for a French company (Ubisoft) and my wife is Portuguese. However, even if I didn't have such a strong connection to the EU i'd still be voting to remain. I've followed the debate very closely and in the beginning I wanted to find out if the…
You can call it a pseudo system or belief, yeah I guess you can't see the wind but you know it exists, I don't need to know everything about how a watch works to use one, it's very similar. I've seen too many things happen in my own personal life to not believe in Jesus Christ. My brother is a walking testimony of…
You might be able to lower the poly count by removing some edge loops that run along the curves of the locking bolts and handle. For something that probably wont be moving, and if they do move, the player won't be 2 inches from it, smoothing groups will help create the illusion it's more curved than it really is. If they…
