Re: Positive Affirmations and Mental Maintenance
- Get an hobby, not art-related maybe, like growing some plants and doing some sports. - Be positive in every situation and state of mind, and phrases speeched to the others. That's what I try to apply in my daily routine / life seen as a poetic act *: "... Once a student ask his master to review his poem, that was… -
Re: finish what you start damnit
I think the cause of this is that your burned out/worn out of working. You've both obviously have spent too many hours working and have not taken many breaks from your hobbies. The only way I find to get around this is spend more time sleeping, then when you wake up and have time for some work in your day. Inspire yourself… -
Re: Colt's stuff
I'm doing this all just as a hobby, so I'm free to be a bit picky. You're right that it is a completely different thing when doing this as a profession. When your boss says you have to model some mushrooms, you even have to do that, no matter if you like it or not, lol. How difficult it is to model good creatures you can… -
Questions on Headus UVLayout
I’ve tried many different methods of generating UVs, but nothing I’ve used comes close to Headus. I’m going to purchase it, but I can’t decide between the Professional and Hobbyist editions.

What contributes to the "style" of games?
Hello, First I would like to say that I have no experience in basically anything Polycount community does, so that might be why I am asking this.

Re: Need suggestion for Artist to get into AAA game industry (I got 3 options in my head)
Tough decision but I think you need to decide if it's 2D or 3D. Which discipline do you want as a career and the other as a hobby? I've partially done option 3, but I knew I was ready for this. I would say if you're thinking of 3 then you need to know are you able to learn by yourself, or at least be capable of learning on… -
Re: Arrrr, the piracy poll!
Boom! They don't even check, as long as you don't make $$$ off it they aren't going to sue your ass for using a free version of a software they offer out to just anyone. tons of people do it to learn and for hobby reasons, with me its both. I also love the fact the fact Quixel put their beta as open, more companies would… -
Re: Indie Dev Question, (Soon to be Graduate)
Indie publishers, heh :P Anynway, best time is free time, that's where most people relax and do fun stuff outside of work, this is also a great time to make that nice sweet indie game while still paying for ones living. It can and will be exhausting but ensures that your economy doesn't go crashing. (Having a job is…
