Re: ANIMATION, GAMING studio artists WATCH OUT.-Stephen Silver
So I have to say excellent thread and solid discussion to be having. As someone who got into the industry with this overworking mindset I made every single one of the mistakes with the common work day. It was not at all unusual for me to go in at 8 in the morning and leave around midnight. I was fortunate enough to work at… -
Re: [UDK] Seaport, L4D Map Project
Not really sure what it looks like when in FPS style view, but I think you are relying too much on just the sunlight to light the level. I get that its near the ocean on a clear day when the sun makes a HUGE impact on the lighting of the day. I think it would almost be better moving the sun down over the horizon, that way… -
Re: Call of Duty: Ghosts
$60 is the standard price point for any game like it. Hell a lot of people pay 60 for a single player only experience. COD for what it is can provide 100s of hours of well polished fun game play for the same. Every game shares assets across titles. If they don't they are stupid. Why remake things that really are not super… -
Re: Strange blue occlusion after light bake
In my experience, having a perfect bake without any artifacting is very difficult to achieve. You can sometimes cover it up with a trim piece or intersecting geometry, but in your case, your assets are out in the open. A few things to do are to really try and maximize your second UV set to the best of your ability. The… -
Re: Tips for moving to california?
I made the move to Laguna Niguel in South Orange County in 2004 to work for an arch viz company. I stayed at the same apartment the whole time and the rent started at $1025 per month and by the time I left 5 years later the rent was $1375 per month. I wasn't ready for getting my rent steadily increased, I was used to… -

As for the anti-American bs, its either people wish they at least had the option to own a gun, or pussy American kids that don't respect their right to over throw the government when the time comes... heh.

Re: Anybody got a 3DS?
It depends on how you're using it. It's a little bit like getting a pair of glasses for the first time. You know how the first time you get them, it can give you headaches off and on because your eyes aren't used to adjusting to that focus? It's pretty much the same thing, your eyes aren't used to focusing in this sort of… -
Re: Snefer's random Sci-fi props
Theres some really great forms in these pieces and the modelling itself is really clean and sharp, in particular the floor works out well. The most recent wall seems a bit like you got lost in the forms compared to the control you showed with the floor. I think the problem is that you had 3 or 4 really strong forms in the… -
Re: What games influenced you the most when choosing a career in game development?
Doom, in high school about a year after it came out I learned you could change the game and make levels, which I did with a buddy of mine, we also did dial in multi-player. We had so much fun making custom maps and playing against each other. It was a pain in the ass there was no one around to ask we just had to figure it… -
Re: To use a traditional portfolio for interviews or not?
Take what you can't put online in with you in some way and always bring a few copies of your resume. It can help to put some things they haven't seen online, in your printed version. Alternate views are good just so its not an exact printscreen of your folio. I bring a printed version with me, and I've interviewed people…
