Re: games you would like to see
I would love to see a game based entirley around a nali cow protaginist...that would be so freaking great. It'd be like...your just grazing in a pasture...and BOOM! VORTEX RIKERS! So, after the ship crash you have to fight all sorts of stuff like prisoners, and the original unreal enemies. Oh, yeah... -
Re: UE3 asset workflow...
Kevin's post pretty much sums it up but I'll share anyway. I have to say though, I wish I had the kind of time he does to spend on assets at work. No doubt they crank out an amazing amount of content at such a high quality bar, but the LD's there are masters of reuse and repurposing assets! The workflow and process of… -

Re: EMD GP20 Train Locomotive
when there isn't a deadline, i love these types of assets, they have a sort of vortex about them, where you'll be noodling away at details here, a detail there, and eventually you pull back and take it all in and decide what to add next. as all the minutes add up, there's these thresholds where you excite yourself about… -
Re: The Tao of Maya - How You Work Dem Nodes?
Maya is not without its heaping helping of bugs. Your experience will also depend largely on which version of Maya you are using. I find 2013 to be the most stable, least buggy version so far, although I haven't really given the newer versions much of a chance since the service packs have been added (though I am growing… -
Re: Hobbyist Game Maker
Lighting: Depends on how you're handling your shape rendering. Most often I've found that freestanding, non-bsp structures have lighting information baked into either the model, as vertex colors, or into a set of lightmap textures which are blended with the diffuse at render time. Also, If this is going to be something the… -
Re: Intersecting Meshes
My answer is, it depends on so much its hard to give a "you must always do it this way" answer. The best way is to answer it yourself and do both when you have the time. That way you learn both ways, and can easily contrast them in the future when you need to make a similar object. Just blindly following rules because some… -
Re: Nobility Ship (image heavy)
Here's the big ass post: From the beginning: When you make a model for a game, it's necessarily lower in detail than the actual object in real life, due to limitations in real-time render speeds. For example, a barrel might have 24 sides in a game. If the game model were lit in a completely accurate manner (flat shading),… -
Quicksilver Ind. "Aardwolf" - Weapon Concepts
Futuristic looking bullpup weapons. Still uploading my older works, which do have some minor parts made by other people. My new things are 100% made by me. So if you see work of mine with credits; you know it's old. Credit to Yeehaw for the flashlight. Credit to Benjoo for the Vortex bubble level and Magpul PMAG20.… -
A collection of useful Source Film Maker resources.
Hey guys, I was talking on the IRC with a few other polycounters about my recent dive into SFM. The conversation eventually led to me sharing tons of links to resources I've found, and Boltz made the recommendation to gather it so it's on in one place on polycount. Wky's guide to setting up Dota 2 with Filmmaker This guide…
