Re: Ddo or Substance designer
To be fair, Allegorithmic has dropped the price on the steam version off and on as of late, with the non commercial going on sale as low as $50 and the commercial as low as $250-299 if I remember correctly. The downside to quixel's current line up (which I do think is good) is that it requires a copy of photoshop for it to… -
Re: tablet for browsing, portfolio, pdf
iPad Mini first gen is now $299 for the base model. Xoliul, I use dropbox to browse and sync files on my iPad. I used it at a couple of interviews successfully. (On an iPad 3) Just in general, I've interviewed quite a few people recently, and it was much nicer with those that brought a tablet. They were able to show extra… -
Re: International Correspondence Studies ?
It's not a direct answer to your question, but in this industry your portfolio is your credentials. Gnomon has a lot of great stuff on it (only seems to be two small online courses though), but you can get a year subscription for $499 which gives you looooaaaaaads of stuff to go through. Between that,polycount (as Donavon… -
Re: detail shmetail
I just don't understand why I am sitting here in 2008, and Crisis Zone still has the best shooting of any game I have played. It came out in 1999! [ame] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6_dqW40OXWU[/ame] When is enough enough? I don't want to sit around and watch games get worse for the next 10 years too. -

Re: Omfg, Obama is President
Not all of Clinton's military strikes were NATO sanctioned, Rob. Read up on it more. My comment about the world hating the pres and I not caring was taken seriously and it was meant as a smart ass joke... Ease up a bit! :) My cousin lost her husband in non-sanctioned Delta ops in Afghanistan in 1999. I guess you're only… -

Re: I want a general portfolio crit
A lot of cool models tbh, it's just the presentation feels closer to 1999. Even with the use of an offline render, your scenes carry a lot of flatness. Direct lighting + AO just can't pass for realism in 2018. You need to try looking into path tracing which nearly every major movie uses now or work on your PBR materials… -
Re: UV...W?
Hmmmm, the more you know. Thanks a lot guys! Still wondering if it could be used for something good in game art. Technically it's still an unused channel one could potentially store information in for free (considering the mesh has UVW coordinates, which is 99.9% of cases), isn't it? Can't think of anything I'd like stored… -
Re: AO: Unreal Engine 4?
Good place to start here: http://filmicgames.com/archives/299 This covers mostly linear space in lighting, which isn't really what we're talking about here. UE4 and most modern engines do all the shader calculations in linear space. But that is a separate issue than loading in gamma or linear space textures. Though the…
