Re: Mudbox 2009
Per: Then mudbox is all you need. But just because you can't 'imagine' any other uses for what ZB offers doesn't mean others can't. I make use of all that other stuff almost on a daily basis. You can have the simplest most perfect base mesh in the world and it will never account for changes required from higher up long… -
Re: AMD Designing Next-Gen Playstation's GPU
Haha :P, both the 360 and wii utilized hardware from ATI, I think it's easier for them to avoid issues when they only have one spec to work with ;) More hardware means more freedom to implement new systems that previously weren't feasible, it's up to developers to actually make use of that though. Now this is a whole other… -
Re: Artist exercises. (Formerly: Upping the ante on our next challenge(s).)
I don't really like the idea if it was a hard rule, it feels too artificially constricted. IMO part of the allure of challenges is it lets you work on something that gives you more freedom than what you do all day at work. I'd much prefer working on a contest where the guidelines were more like "create a hallway, contest… -
Re: The Walking Dead
Remember, the next location, in the comics, takes up quite a few issues. As long as they don't skip over shit, like I felt they did with the Governor, it should take a while. Though, I do get the feeling that they want to catch up, to the comics, so they can stop hearing "that's not how it was in the comics". It will give… -
Re: [CE] moon surface
@S-ed: Thanks for your feedback :) I actually agree to most of your points. I usually try to make this virtual version of the moon as authentic as possible but sometimes I take the freedom to bend reality a little bit to get a more interesting picture :) You could argue, that the glow around the sun is caused by regolyth… -
Re: Gaming trends you want gone in 2014
I can get behind the hand holding going away, for sure. Sometimes the game is so concerned with getting you to follow the golden path you can't actually get on with PLAYING the damned thing. And then I started up a new session of Fallout:New Vegas over the break and it was awesome. Total freedom, do whatever you want ...… -
Re: Are YOU an artist?
I'm an artist, I build worlds. A lot of my motivation comes from my dislike of the rules others made and called reality, as a world builder I get to make alternative places for people to play and socialize in. I always feel good about giving back the freedom to escape reality that proved so benificial to me when I was… -
Re: New ZBrush @ZBrush Summit
I'd probably stick with this copy of zBrush if they got rid of the line-style transpose tools. If they had BOTH it would be great, but I like the amount of fluidity and freedom you get with the action-line transpose stuff. It's great for manipulation and quickly adjusting proportions, and it's too bad when it comes to… -
Re: Fez
voxel models converted into polygonal models then, I will assume that these tiles cannot deform or change its data in any way from what it originally is. I think it's more worrying that a highly regarded indie developer is platform-locked by a publishing deal by microsoft. Which is fine, except it goes against the whole… -
Re: Lessons From Doom

Obviously the picture i posted can't be taken too seriously, It's supposed to be a funny pic, but there is some truth to it. There are obviously exceptions, not all games are linear shooters like CoD. You mentioned some, NOLF 1 and 2, DeusEx(1), FEAR(1), Bioshock(1), Crysis, Fallout3, are a few that come to mind but as you…
