well c'mon man, you spent about 4-5 hours coming up with tag, I don't consider myself a designer and I usually spend weeks writing/iterating/perfecting game design ideas. r_fletch_r: I think you're falling for the misconception that if an MMO isn't a massive blockbuster it's a failure. WOW is like Avatar, if your movie is…
Both ebay and gamestop give store credit for trade-ins. On a regular day they give store credit worth $50. A special deal a few weeks back was trading in your xbox got you $80 off the purchase of xbox 360. Like I recommended you, half.com is a great place to sell, it took me 5 minutes to set up a seller profile and post up…
with moving ur unwrap around and scaling down less detailed parts, you can easily use half the space with your current islands However, i suggest tweaking the shapes of these to fit the UV space better (squarer) For the kind of detail your using i'd say you could get almost the same results from a 256x256, 1024 is…

Unfortunately not. You can, however, use velocity over time or force over time, and while it's possible to use either of those (you can get displacement from both velocity and acceleration), it's not ideal. Hopefully they'll add in a method of doing displacement over time in a future update. If you're trying to get things…
There were older games with 3D menu backgrounds :) for example imperium galactica 2 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gcrDJTEl2xU. I guess it was 4 years before hl2. In this game nearly all menus are based in 3d space. Another game (I like space games) was X-Beyond The Frontier. All ingame menus were displayed on ship…
@b_beauchamp Thanks for the tips. You're right about the light. I will try to improve it. Thanks also for the compliments. As for cloth overhangs I created a small video of about 5 minutes (I think a video is better than creating a wall of text and maybe not explaining it well) in which I show you the two methods I used (I…
