Re: Indie Dev Question, (Soon to be Graduate)
There are many threads about how people started out as game developers. Including how they transitioned into self-employment (freelance/indie). http://wiki.polycount.com/wiki/Game_Industry#How_to_Get_In tl/dr; Get a studio job first (for money, experience). Do personal work on evenings/weekends. After a year or two… -
Re: Advice Request - animator --> QA - 1 Step back for 2 steps forward?
Wouldn't recommend going back to QA if you're already working a design type job, since it would be a monumental setback. I think QA is the way forward if you want to get a foot in the door, but for someone who's already working in the industry it will get old quickly and I think you would likely regret it. I would continue… -
Re: WIP Jasmine Heerasingh - Character
I know it has been a while since I have last posted on here. I'm sorry to say that I will have to pull out of this contest due to time and personal reasons. I also gotten my first freelance client and so all my time is devoted to that at the moment. I would have like to try to continue with this contest but can't. Maybe… -
Re: Mario Manzanares' art & stuff
Muzz: Thanks man! Awesome feedback, nice reference and I'll study those folds for sure! Indeed, I never realize my folds could be so bad... until you said it, haha. Thanks! On another note... I completely updated my portfolio!! I'm thinking about getting an in-house work instead of the freelancing, since I feel it fits… -
Re: A place to sell models?
No can do, I keep my work profiles and my 'Frell' profiles separate since I don't have the patience to control my own PR, and I'm not very well liked around here because I'm an ass online But generally what I do is look for holes in the store where things are lacking and make them, I don't specialize in anything. But I've… -
Re: UE4 goes free
I work in a games hub where there are lots of Indies and freelance developers. The news of Unreal going free has really perked a lot of their interests (of course I was already aware of how awesome the engine is). Not only is this extremely generous of epic to the industry as a whole, it's also a fantastic marketing move.… -
Re: CAT bones having weird issues being weighted, mesh deforms only after adding keyframe
Hi all, bumping this up since I need an answer as this is a freelance commission project I'm working on and I have no idea how to fix it. To reiterate: I have a CAT skeleton, bones are correctly skinned. When I move a bone, the mesh does not move in real time with the bone. The bones animate as though they aren't skinned… -
Re: Game remakes you'd love to see
also loved crusader:no remorse and syndicate... never heard of bionic commando but looks cool. Other remakes would be "Cannon Fodder" something like that with co-op would rock. We just started on a project like solar-winds/freelancer in 2D with our engine, will see how far that goes. It is meant for LAN play mostly (not… -
Re: Hello. Which is preferred? A Specialist or a Generalist?
From personal experience I disagree with this. Especially when the economy is in a recession like...now. One can market themselves as specialist but that doesn't mean it's evil to have generalist skills. Generalist doesn't even mean you must know everything 3d. Think of it more as a secondary/ complementary skill that you… -
