Re: Seeking Advice on entering the Gaming world, post college.
You're doing it wrong. Stop looking for a job and start making a game. You have two general paths as a game designer - System design or Visual Design. System designers set the combat mechanics, the leveling pace, the crafting system, etc, and they should know at least the basics of programming/scripting. Visual Designers… -
Re: Spherical world - how?
A vertex shader can curve a flat surface, but you can't wrap around a whole sphere (think about a plane wrapping around a sphere, it is really messy). Either take a sphere as base and use a proper coordination system (i.e. polar coords) or an other representation (unit vectors, quaternions). Or take a cube as base (think… -
Re: HK 416 rifle with attachments
I have pretty extensive experience building M4 systems in both airsoft and "real steel", and can say that most middle to high end airsoft guns are a near 100% external replica of the real weapons I had worked on. That being said, yes you should take caution using airsoft as reference, but also just using any m4 style… -
Re: Modern colour theory
I would actually think that the saturation confusion must've come from feedback from artists when the HSV system was first introduced. Non grey things are saturated according to Ittens, after all. Therefore, those silly programmers, with their silly brightness and chroma. Ittens says it's Value and Saturation. Therefore,… -
Re: LA Noire
I'm maybe a third to half way through so far. I'm enjoying it a lot so far. Initially I found the interrogation system to be pretty hard to get to grips with but I'm finding more and more as I go on that I know which option to choose in each situation. I still feel like there was room for a lot more depth in this system… -
Re: London cable car station
The pulley mechanism in the middle of the arch makes no sense, the gondola supports that keep the car on the line would hit it, and stop the car completely. For that to work, the wire has to go over the top of the pulley, and the armature that holds the car has to curve to fit around the pulley as it passes over it. Note… -
Re: Dell buys Alienware?
Err, yes please inform me as well I own 3 Alienware systems - 2 PCs and a laptop. All three are damn good. My laptop m-7700 is amazing - plays any 3d game I throw at it. Also does extremely well with 3dMax and Photoshop. I've had more issues with Dell systems than Alienware, that's for damn sure. Alienware might cost more… -

video card question
So just recently i've gone through some hardware failures and i''ve had to replace my e-Geforce 8800 gtx 768mb with a gtx460 SE 1gb. I'm trying to figure out how this is possible, but the 8800 from 2006 had a bigger impact on performance than the new 460. My system is absolute crap, but somehow the 8800 managed to…
