Re: Cinema 4d tips and tricks thread
As promised above, this post is my tips about Cinema 4D's "Normal Tag"... In Cinema 4D, Vertex Normals (and thus, the 'smooth-shading' aspect of mesh objects) are normally generated and maintained by the "Phong Tag". The Phong Tag has options for setting a "Phong Angle" (smoothing angle) as well as an option to honor phong… -
Re: So You Want to Work in the Video Game Industry
The part that rings the most true for me is the fact that we all come to this industry wide eyed and idealistic with ideas about how to make games. We quickly discover that its a very select few that genuinely get to decide and design the games and they are very protective of their turf and that realization can cause… -

Re: Supreme Court upholds Eminent Domain

Re: Project organization questions
I would strongly advise you against putting all of your eggs in one basket. Someone always trips and it's better if only a few eggs are broken instead of every egg. Plus it isn't hard to chug a scene file with just a handful of assets. It might be ok to batch a few together like a desk, chair and some desk accessories but… -

Re: New Game: The Legend Of Vraz
I understand the style you speak of, and this is not it. This game presents a LOT of different art style. In most cases the art itself is ok, but when clashed together all these different styles are a complete train wreck. (1) Things that may be hitting the "Indian Miniature Painting style" are most of the backgrounds,… -
Portfolio Addition: Game
Creating the environment for Outland 17 has been a fun experience. Though the production of the game has made life quite busy, I have enjoyed every second of it. Working into the wee hours and burning the midnight oil is what every environment artist anticipates. The hard work that everyone on Grenade Tree Games has put in… -
