I agree with the practice of reporting instances where kids play M-rated games to the social services. Hopefully the social services will handle these cases fairly and only intervene if there is a general neglect of the kids in that household. A teacher is actually doing his job right if he does more than just teach school…
I'd been doing dead end jobs like carving salmon in a fishfarm, sewing machinist on a factory line or glorified dishwasher in a restaurant and was sick of it. I read about Qtest1 coming to the PC, bought a PC and intended learning how to make games with Quake, because it was supposed to let know nothing amateurs like…
Blog Entry #2 - Grass Terrain Texture So having got some nice highpoly grass blades, the next step was to make a custom terrain texture which the grass objects would blend nicely on, so here's the steps I took to create the grass from 3ds to the sandbox. Step1: Having spent the time to make the highpoly grass for my…
[edit] Oh snap, there's an image cap of 16... I'm going to have to split up this next post. Time for a great big art dump. Most of the time I'm super picky about what gets posted on polycount, so I need to just post the good, bad and the ugly here to help me keep everything in proper perspective. (I'm not going to post the…

Those are some excellent points, CrazyButcher. It is especially true that Sauerbraten is limited in the scope of game that can be currently made for it. Sauerbraten is very much targeted at the development of simple, Quake-style FPS games. If you want more from it, or to create a different style of game, you're going to…
I post a reply here, but right after I edited to change an image and when I clicked "save" my post was gone, I'm not sure what happened but I'm writing it again. I've finally finished! It was really hard for me and I learned a lot. I would like to thank everyone here, specially @Pinkfox for all the tips and study material…
@Nosslak : I can't speak for Machin3, but ... I can confirm that one can definitely do that with the current version - and it doesn't even require adding these extra custom decals to the library, they can just live in your scene as a regular object (atlased plane) or as little precut labels. Merging any piece of flat…
You've got some pretty nice stuff on there, but the biggest hurdle I can see right now is that I have no idea of what you actually want to do from just looking at the portfolio pages. From the bio page I can see that you want to make handpainted textures and design characters, but I think you need to show that more clearly…
If I were a recruiter and saw your site I'd assume that your old models represented the quality you would output today in a project. I can see the dates but if you're not happy with the models and they could be better I think you should either remove or revisit them. In that case I think you should write that. Also,…
