Re: programmers...
The "If->Then" and the "I do" I hope I can show you a bit of understanding between the coders and the artists and the conflict which can appear between those caracters. I have something like a coder history, I got very deeply into that for some years, guess I can say that I lived it like a total freak in that time + I… -
Re: programmers...
It becaue on the whole artists are better looking and sexier, therefore the envy thing comes in to play. Suppose if you have a good technical artist as a buffer between the art team and the coding team, then things tend to run a bit more smoothly. Also some coders have an interest in graphics, whilst others could n't care… -
Re: programmers...
[ QUOTE ] That said, I think that was largely due to the sloppy codebase and the lack of time. The thing about engineering is, that they're often doing a lot of clean up work behind the scenes that isn't necessarily particularly obvious or visual. Sometimes entire chunks of code were rewritten with no obvious impact. After… -
Re: programmers...
well either side has their issues, my motivation for getting into coding more was als heavily fueled by some negative experiences. But knowing both sides, it's mostly the fact that programmers are extremely stressed by tons of different tasks, yeah it's their job, but still, unless you have an army of pipelined coders,… -
Re: programmers...
[ QUOTE ] Artists = seem to be interested in moving forward, making progress, adding better things and making the game look better, even if it means more work. Programmers = seem interested in doing as little new stuff as possible since they will have to bugfix it later, are completely resistive to adding anything new or… -
Re: programmers...
poop, our mindset is in the perpetual improvment of functions so we do tend to get burried in the little details. But personally, i'm always trying to impliment new features, time is the issue. A new function, if previous code was written poorly is very difficult to complete in a timely manner. I have teh benefit of being… -
Re: programmers...
maybe with better communication in which the "other side" gets to know about fundamental issues of either side's problems, would help to gain a bit respect. as stated by Daz before, a lot of coding won't have any visual effect on the total thing, at best that you have 1-2 fps more than before... Another thing that artists… -

Re: programmers...
Ben when this happens, I talk directly to that particular programmer about my concerns. If nothing improves, I move up the chain, talking with the next rung on the ladder. Eventually I get the issue to someone who sees the issue for what it is. As long as I keep it level-headed and positive, I find the squeaky wheel gets… -
