I remember watching something...On TV, and can not remember the name. It talked about arcades using carts inside of them so you only changed that, instead of moving the box. Well Nintendo took this idea, and put it in the home... Another topic was the creation of Mario, and how Zelda was a game about the fantasies…
Someones been drinking ...anyways You know there are games that have environments that stick out, but mostly they are older games . My prime example is Myst and it's siblings . Although games like Mario world had environments which stood out in memory as did a lot of other old school games . It does seem now that…
I will try Jacque advice for three months to see if I make any progress. Been looking at Super Mario Odyssey character and if I start with the simple ones for example bullet bills, then maybe I could do that in a week. Then, could move gradually on to more challenging characters. Character art is a abyss to be honest. You…
damn, I want this title. I still need a Wii though. Stores here are still sold out :/ I did get to finally play Sin and Punishment on a console though. My previous attempts at it on emulators did not go so well. If you missed out on this game on the N64 and love Treasure games you need to download it. It's so damn fun.…
Hey, I'm trying to tweak a style study I'm doing on Super Mario Galaxy As you can see my Rim lighting shader is just tending to white and I have no idea what nodes to use to make it apply to the saturation as well. In the image I'm using a SamplerInfo.facingRatio > Ramp.VCoord and the ramp into the lambert's incandencanse.…
I'm wondering the same thing. I'm trying to see if I can fit MightyBake into a Maya/Modo/Mari/Nuke/Redshift/RenderMan pipeline and workflow. I heard about it from some folks over in the Foundry Mari forums so wanted to give it a look. I want to avoid using Modo's bake system or Mari's conversion nodes to generate normals…
In terms of it being a platformer, how is the camera set up? Is it a 3rd person camera ala Mario Galaxies, or is it locked to a plane / view ala Sonic the Hedgehog IV: Episode 1 ? If its a locked 2.5d camera set up, you could really push the details of the walls and play to the camera a whole lot. Making environments for…
Thought it might just be in our heads. I can understand why people wont like this map it is very bright tbh. Almost Mario 64 bright! Its a fun map though, but I think it'll be a vote banned for competitive play by at least one of the sides. The addition of spectator mode is going to be awesome! Can we now expect match…
I don't mind when they add content (as long as it wasnt planned initially for the game and intentionally held back...) but I fucking hate logging into NEW games and being asked for a patch day 1 or even just a week in. Make sure your shit is bug free jerks! yeah I know. whatever.. I know games are more complicated today,…
Daz took the words right out of my mouth, I kind of lost a group of my friends to WOW. We're all nerds so we didn't really have active lives but we'd all hang out and play Mario Party, Soul Calibur, maybe some Risk or D&D... but now when I usually come over, I just sit on the couch and try to talk to them while they sit…
