Re: Thoughts on the Stop Killing Games movement?
zetheros said: I was expecting to be enraged by that video (default state of being tbh) but I wasn't entirely. This isn't even all that unrealistic for new projects/engines - It is extremely unrealistic though, if you're someone who works on a legacy codebase containing thousands of instances where some code doesn't appear… -
[3ds Max 2017] Noob Python/PySide Doubts
Hi polycounters, More or less my setup for 3ds max 2017 with python is: Visual studio Code (with python, MaxScript plugins and MXSPyCOM connects to 3ds Max) Pyside 1.2.2 Qt 4.8.5 (With QtDesigner) Actually create a python script ( based on Drew Avis in Max Docs) with simple things, yesterday works more or less by now when… -
iCores
Only now that I have been in the market for a new machine have I realised what a confusing mess this Intel iSeries of cores is. Can't get a single straight answer on the net! You would think that i3 is the worst, i5 is the middle ground and i7 is the best. But apparently that all depends, and an i5 can be better in one… -

Re: Finished -- Attempt to get Cougar fur similar to theHunter-Call of the Wild fur
Thanks @WadeWT , that gives me a lot to go off of. I don't know nothing about writing shaders beyond basic work with the UE4 material node editing (which I guess is just visual shader scripting), but maybe with a few weeks of research and experimentation I can come up with something decent. Maybe that is totally… -
Re: MoP's Height Map / Vertex Blending Shader...Who has it?
Sorry about that btw. It was my fault for assuming you (or anyone else for that matter) would know what to do with the code. The deeper I get into coding myself I forget what's "common knowledge" and what's not. I guess it goes without saying even though it's probably obvious at this point, but I'll mention it anyway just… -
Re: UDK LitSpheres, world space and camera space
One of the coders back at 38 helped us come up with this exact same series of nodes. He called it 'sphere mapping' though. Dunno if that's some official technie-graphics-programmer term or not. Pretty cool stuff though! -
Re: What software is needed for a complete 3D modelling work-flow?
Just getting into 3d isbe quite challenging. And getting the prop modelling gig aint the easiest. Since most like it so much so they tend stick to that once they get it. To myself, its a dream gig. Just make models and get payd for it. Nowadays thats something i do for fun, then sell the modells on turbosquid for… -
Re: Material - Dynamic Shield anyone (Turtles Included)?
This isn't going to be just a material solution. Its a combination of material and the hit detection portion of the game. Using UDK as a base look in the "takeDamage" function of the actor class. Included in that is a vector for hit location. So for your player class using this material you're creating you can have a hook…
