Re: Environment: Street Fighter Stage
in this case it's the amount of overdraw due to the amount of unlit translucency type effects, I think. Anything soft transparent (ie anything that's see through, and NOT opacity-masked) will cause overdraw and the more layers of it, the more complex it gets. To see this in action, place a row of those light beams, one in… -
Re: Guildhall at SMU offers Masters Degree now

I am glad to hear you guys have set the bar higher again in game developemnt education. Like Ror said I hope those going in know its not a grantee of skill, spend X amount of money get Y job because X was… -
Re: Geo-loop
It works if you cap it first. Edit: So what i thought was actually true. Once you collapse vertices the original center of the circle is lost. The center calculated from all vertices at least. How do you construct a cicle without knowing the correct centerpoint? Some testing code: ( --If there is anything selected? local… -
Re: Super Mario Bros. Wii...?
See for me this is one of the reasons I love the games! The amount of times I play a game and get to the last few levels, keep getting killed by the same enemy/ stuck in the same place and just give up, never to go back is really infuriating. I don't get anywhere near the amount of time to play games as I used to so small… -
Re: [UE4] Sci-fi Religious 3D Environment.(Need feedback)
It's very interesting so far. I think the main thing that you may want to look at is reducing the amount of visual noise. Right now, in the ground shots, you have so many lights and panel cuts that my eye doesn't have anywhere to rest. Either keep the ground more simple and neat materials or keep somethign else simple and… -
Re: Zbrush4 feature hotness
What if you could have instant access to billions of images? It really depends on where those images are coming from. If they have strings attached and the amount of monkey work I have do to get my photos into Zbrush. If it connects to some kind of pay as you go, i-tunes style library, I'll pass. Even if the master library… -
Re: Doubt: New to Game Art Polys/Triangles.... Help Me
[ QUOTE ] If say I want to do a character with 1000 triangles or 1000 polys what is the difference and how could I know that [/ QUOTE ] Since the examples above are all polygons but contain different amounts of triangles you can have a model that is 1000 polys but easily much more if you count the triangles. 1000 triangles… -
Re: Do you play the Lottery?
I'll play is the lottery if it's at some ridiculous amount. Once, my buddy and I went "halfsies" on a powerball ticket, and won $100 from it. We split the cash, and spent half of our cut on more tickets. Didn't win anything after that. Another time, I picked up a $1 scratch off, and won $5, went back in and got two more, I… -
Re: Assualt rifle
Hey NoChance, thanks for the detailed crit! I will definitely keep your advice in mind when I revisit this model. I agree about the texture resolution, I will probably end up with a 1024. As for the ridiculous amount of scratches, haha, I did get carried away, but in the end I plan on leaving a good amount in there. Making… -
Re: The Fall of the Republic: The Presidency of Barrack Obama
There is a surprising amount of evidence to support anything. Since we're all spouting insane anti government bullshit in here let me bring up some Discordianism to support my point; it's a made up religion from the 50s. The interesting, relevant part is a fundamental tenet of their beliefs, the law of fives: now, it was…
