I'll gladly take the tomatoes that'll be tossed at me for saying this, but 25 people out of around 400 people isn't much of a layoff to get worked up over. And, it sounds more like yearly cleansing of low performing staff members then budget cuts. It's good for every studio to let the weaker staff members go ever 12-18…
well I intend to be still working games for a few years to come.I am working on my 6th game and still have the desire to do more. I know there is a texture artist in his early fifties and has been doing it around 18 years. I think you have to pace yourself though and not get burn't out. Long term I would like to get in to…
(About new update of today 18/06/2013) Before restarting this project there a few days ago, I didn't know if I was going to keep the actual texturing or restart from the 3dsmax high definition mesh. I think it is a better idea to restart with new bases. It's not good to do things too fast. So, this is the hp mesh from…
So what about the indie developer who has his game bought online by a kid pretending to be 18? I guess it is okay to have obscene violence and porn in your game as long as you give it to kids for free. This law is retarded. Anyone who supports this law either hasn't thought through the consequences (ie, grouping games in…

The wear and tear looks good for me, but I´m not shure if the reflectance values and colors of your metals are correct. You should try Substance Painter if your going for PBR. Here are some helpful links that u may or may not yet have seen: http://www.marmoset.co/toolbag/learn/pbr-practice…

Are you using PBR? If not I would suggest nailing one prop with PBR rather than DNS. Let us know if you have questions. Some great reference for PBR: http://www.marmoset.co/toolbag/learn/pbr-practice https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Fb9_KgCo0noxROKN4iT8ntTbx913e-t4Wc2nMRWPzNk/edit…
FOUND IT FINALLY Just finished watching it Im kinda following in Adam's steps! Except i joined a team to make a mmo/mod when I was 15 now Im 18 slowly improving. The Nwn2 Engine was the worst piece of shit I ever used in my life and Im glad i used it too, it was a massive learning experience and got me into how normal maps…
You can get a canon t2i with 18-55 kit lens for about £200 used, maybe less if you can find a good deal. The t2i (550d) still holds up to the newer rebel models. And it's plenty for semi-pro textures. I've used it for several years for textures and HDRis with some great results. I don't think phone cameras can produce…
