Re: Game Art Educational Program -- Advice needed
My high school had a "3d program" the teacher was really only trained in photoshop, and it seemed more like a hobby for than, than a trained, professional level, skill. Most students will not get anything from the class if this sample scene is a an example of the teachers skills. They may learn how to model a simple subdiv… -
Re: Do you really want to work in 3D indutry
Nope, I really don't (want to work in the 3D industry). I'm actively looking for a way to get out because it's exploitative, ruined my interest in working on games, and I'm tired of working for incompetent management. I'll still do 3d as a hobby, and I'm making small games with my husband (he's a programmer) but at this… -
Re: Which modeling program is to be recommended
Quake II Modeller is still around somewhere. If you are a student - grab Max or Maya - I personally found Maya to be much easier to use at first glance than Max. If you are not a student and you don't have $7,000 to drop on your hobby, then get Blender. There are exporters for all the major file formats available. Blender… -

Re: Racing Game PC-Suggestions?
I miss racing RC cars. I used to be really into it in the early 90's. It was the only fun times I ever had with my dad. Then the local track closed down and I just lost interest in it. If there was a track nearby I'd definitely pick up the hobby again. I think I loved tinkering with my car more than racing it. As for PC… -
Re: When did you decide that you wanted to make games?
I've wanted to make games since I was 5, pretty much ever since I knew they existed. I didn't realize it would be possible for me to seriously pursue this hobby until my freshman year of college, when I was 19. A large part of what encouraged me to start trying to make games was following the scene here on polycount, and… -
Re: New Painting Tool. Colour Constructor!
Creative, the guy made a product and is selling it at a very affordable price for the majority of artists, hobby or professional. Drop it. Muzz, looks really useful and I'll probably pick it up in the near future. One thing that would be cool is to have a sampling option, ie: you take a photo ref, eyedropper the parts you… -
Re: Best Dating sites
True, opposites attract as they say, but if there isn't much (or any) common ground in terms of hobbies or mutual interests, it can be a problem. I married a woman who had absolutely no interest in gaming and rolled her eyes at the suggestion of a Romero movie marathon and it was problematic. Sure, we had somewhat similar… -
