Re: Applied for a job - usual wait times?
Keep in mind, it's around this time (April/May) students are now graduating from colleges/universities so I wont be surprised if studios right now are being flooded with thousands of applicants. I would strongly advise looking around your area/state and see if there are any job fairs being held at schools, especially… -
Re: Possible job offer in LA. Need help with salary requirements.
My first job was 36K a year, I lived in the San Diego area and split a 3 bedroom condo with two other guys at the studio, $1800/m or $600 per. Pay was enough to live on plus a little extra, but I would probably look in the 40-45K range or at least 50K if you're going to rent a place of your own in the 1000-1500 a month… -
Re: RTS units
Thanks for pointing out the corners of the factory- they definitely need to be looked at. As far as tri-counts go, I was told to budget 1000-1500 tris for small units, and no more than 2000 tris for large units. The turret weighs in at 1296. The other buildings are usually under budget- the importer is around 840, the… -
Re: To any Aussies who got jobs in the US games industry, can you tell me how you did it?
Hey thanks for the reply! A friend recently got back from Canada, where he was staying for 6 months on a holiday working visa. He found it impossible to get work there as an animator, even though he has lots of experience and a great portfolio. He was saying there's a tax break for studios for hiring local talent, so no… -
Re: [Portfolio] - Evan Burrill
megalmn2000: - I put the links under each page so users wouldn't have to scroll all the way to the top of the page to go back to the images link. -Yes, the reel isn't useful at all. That's only there because it was required for me to graduate. Our class actually found out there's a lot of companies don't enjoy watching… -
Re: JonJone's Info Dump on Portfolios & Resumes!
Actually that page plus all of the thumbnails is less than 5 MB. That's about as much as one or two streamed MP3s. It's not a super heavy page. Mind you, it could still be a lot smaller if the images used more compression since it is all greyscale: And you could use online compression tools like… -
Re: misc. maxscript UV scripts/tools
hmm might be difficult to fetch the mouse position and then even fetch the mouse buttons states. I think those are the major problems if that were possible I might see a change for something like that. As for implementing lscm or other complicated stuff : thats nothing for me - I might appear as a coder here in this thread… -
Re: proof America is a f*cked up place
I'm going to have to ask some of you to read the article before replying. He's not going to jail for raping the 17 year old girl. This guy had sex with a drunk 17 year old, who did not ask him to stop. Then the 17 year old went to the police, and said she was raped. Due to the video, he was cleared of the rape charge. But… -
Re: Same procedure as last round Miss Sophy? [rant]
hm. only tried AHL back in the day and that was just plain deathmatch with some random strangers on all the servers? still i owe something to AHL thanks to a certain modelling contest. cs on the other hand requires teamwork and thus a group of people who play together well. and with such a group it's totally not the same… -
Re: CG_Society_Merc (WIP)
Is it just me or do people think these new ZB3 materials are responsible for making work look better than it actually is? I tell the same thing to new students when they render with Mental Ray, or meshsmooth a model. If it looks good it looks good under any condition and if it doesn't look good under basic conditions it…
