Re: Peter Molyneux RPS Interview
Ugh ... so much bias I can't even read all of it. If the majority of the so called game 'journalist' don't remember something then its that a journalist is supposed to stay neutral. Instead we get bias and cilckbait from the first line on. I get that they are angry, the backers didn't want a mobile click/idle game, they… -
Re: Why you need an education
Well that was my general point, but I wouldn't say N.A. art schools are all bad at all... just those for-profit scams. Plenty of decent schools in N.A. I'm sure. :) I have no bias. I am just averse to the idea of people making life decisions based on someones massive generalizations. If anything the OP shows extreme bias… -

Hi guys! I was wondering about the Scale & Bias checkbox that is in the normal maps in Marmoset default shader All i know about it is that when using 8 bit normal maps it should be enabled but if you are using 16 bit normals it should be disabled. But i don´t get what this Scale and Bias really does in the image. Could… -
Re: Max Normal Map Baking Color-Set
Max/NX generate normals with a slightly different tangent bias, which means the end result texture will look a little different, this may be slightly more saturated or something, its not particularly important, certainly not a case of 128/256 bit depth or anything. They are just different, one isn't "better" than the… -
Re: CryEngine Lighting Help
The issue itself (even though you got your interior setup wrong) is caused by shadow inaccuracy. If your dealing with an exterior scene that is setup correctly you can increase the accuracy by changing the shadow bias settings at the bottom of your time of day controls. Be warned, the settings can be extremely sensitivity… -
Re: Texture/Shadow Distance Error
It's called shadow map acne. It's not a flaw in the GPU drivers or anything, it's just something you have to deal with in all shadow mapping tech. The implementation in UDK is quite bad. You can tweak this by changing the shadow map bias in some of the config files, but too large bias results in peter panning shadows (ie… -
Re: [MAYA] My ShaderFx Uber Shader
Thanks a lot! No problems! I think I got it, just need some adjustments. You can check the nodes if you want, inside the shadowmap group of the traditional game shader in the version of this post. ALPHA 006 RELEASE Changelog: -Added PCF shadow method (selectable in the new dropdown menu in the settings): This is a… -
Re: [CE3] Bioshock Environment Homage
@D-boy - No worries dude! I'm not the most knowledgeable on the subject, but Cryengine has some great solutions to indoor light. Bare in mind that I only have a working knowledge of this stuff, so I may be VERY wrong.. :P TECHNICAL STUFF THAT MAY BE WRONG - Firstly alot of the ambient lighting is done using "vis areas" a… -
Re: Autodesk re-structuring and slashing 1,200 jobs
Some software is expensive and probably always will be, but it's not entirely fair to single out Autodesk here. They share a market place with the likes of Dassault, Siemens, Bentley Systems and they all charge what some might consider to be high prices, but It costs alot of money to write, build and maintain software.… -
Re: Watch Dogs: Holy shit.
That's not entirely the case though, I think. I've been playing games for many years (like many others) so I know the type of things that interest me and the type of things that don't. I always see people talking bad about pre-orders but I've never understood it. If I see content of a game and I enjoy it, what's wrong with…
