I hope this doesn't come across as paternalism/being a smartass (not sure if this is the right word/how to express what I want - I'm not a native speaker), but I don't want you to later think "damn, why haven't I bought xxx back then instead of xxx". :O PSU: The Seasonic 750 is only $40 more and would be enough for 2 760s…
Hello. I've been transitioning to Marmoset for baking and have built up a very large scene. Currently it has around 80 bakers and a similar amount of materials with normal maps and I plan to have more.

Taking forever to make an indie game isn't an option. So far, I haven't been able to quit my day job, but if I keep to a solid 2~3 months turn around, then I can build up a decent catalog. Not saying make throw-away games. You can if you hone your time and energy into what is needed to run. My current project is taking a…
My crits would be (i make lists and i can be quite blunt so please don't take offense) * the materials, it is currently one big lump of metal shaped into a capsule. which is making the entire scene one big grey mass. It is a space capsule right? so people floating around would be bashing into stuff all the time, your…
