Great feed back all, i am ready to start this today, 12 central time ("lunch"). so i will post a summary in an edit here soon if you caught it great if not i suppose the thread area is launched and i do not have to. Reason for today is to allow conceptual artists of all walks to get in on this also, so a "week" early seems…
I've been bouncing back and fourth on this and might be pulling the trigger soon (jobless bum atm). Here is the list I compiled last December based on what I use daily: Media Encoder - https://www.shutterencoder.com/ Acrobat Pro - https://www.pdfgear.com/pdfgear-for-windows/ Premire -…

Thanks for the feedback Mark. I plan on adding more ageing to the entire scene as soon as I'm happy with the layout of the alleyway and buildings. I'll be using vertex painting and decals to break up my tiling textures soon. Most of my materials in the scene don't have any reflective properties at the moment, but I'll be…
That's not what I mean. What I was trying to explain is that the tools to create source assets the in way you describe (as painted sculpts) have existed for 15 years. Computers have been plenty powerful enough for it for a long, long while. Your computer can handle it already. (I am not talking about the game version here,…
I decided to use the opportunity to use a full skin scan for the first time. I'm used to rely on just a mix of procedural and sculpted details added to hand painted colors. I tried out Wrap for projecting and it's nice, works on Wine with nearly no hiccups, and I think I even got Marmoset working on Wine too, which I might…
I was thinking the same thing (edit: this). They can only have one black guy in the main group (core heros, not tag alongs like the preacher). T-Dog was gone as soon as they had Oscar, Oscar was gone as soon as they had Tyreese, Tyreese was gone as soon as they had Noah. Noah was probably taken out to clear the path for…
Looking down the list of games soon to be coming out on PS2, Xbox, and GC, it looks as if the good ole sidescroller genre is dead. Unless I missed one? The only sidescrolling type of game on the horizon is Alien Hominid (www.newgrounds.com), which looks awesome, but why is it that game companies think automatically if a…
While a bit fatalistic, the article sure sums up a lot of not so distant problems we are going to face. The only solution is (in my opinion) nuclear power (for energy) and biotech (for carbonhydroxy based chemestry). "Renewable" energy sources (like wind power and solar energy) are are actually a completely wrong concept…
Oh right @Neox, I just had a look at the now released trailer and indeed this looks a lot like an intentionally simple "no bake" artstyle. I personally think it looks excellent but of course this alone doesn't guarantee success. It definitely cuts costs down though. Gameplay doesn't seem anything out of the ordinary though…
