This is a weird poll... I only say that because this has been covered alot in PnP and Gen Discussion on polycount. Here's an example of what I mean. Lots of the questions I see can be answered using the other boards/polycount wiki as a reference point :D 9/10 I find you will get a better baking method using a couple…
Not to beat a dead horse, but I'm in the same boat as you. Modeling and bakes always turn out great. Texturing is the "needs to improve" aspect. Advice I've received as of late is to first figure out the history of the model. For weapons, think about how long they've been in action. That will get you on the fast track.…

Now this is starting to look sexy! The fog turned out looking sweet, fits perfectly with the rain actually. Been thinking about what else you can add, except for assets lying around. Maybe you can add some kind of halo particle effect to your spotlights. I did this really fast to showcase what I mean (in CE2 though).…
Thanks for the comment Chris! - I made a quick try at the floorboards and I think you're right! It helped making the scene feel bigger, which was much needed.

I do know what you mean, I've had it on 2 work trips recently. We also get mistaken for people in a band. It's probably that 6 of us we go to a nice swanky restaurant where everyone…
oxy: Ive been meaning to read the Darwin stuff. One of the things that hooked me intially with Bear was his description of thought processes from an AI point of view in queen of angels. verm: Main characters always get the interesting missions .. look at how much Jack Bauer can do by himself. heh ror: cheers. agreed on…
I was just about to post to this forum with the exact same question! I'm making the jump to 64-bit and the only question has been Vista or XP... I'm leaning toward XP 64-bit. The biggest issue right now is I'm having a hard time finding it for sale online. I found this...…
This is exactly how scared you should be of North Korea: That's the Korean peninsula at night. See the yellow dots all along the top? Those are lights from town and cities in China. Now see even more yellow dots down at the bottom? Those are the cities and towns of South Korea. And that nearly unlit band running through…
Are you saying that you are not a "smart and capable adult professional"? I am a game developer. I develope games for a living. I have completed projects with major publishers. I don't want to work fulltime on-site right now, but that doesn't mean my job is any less. The flaw in the article, and I will spell it out for you…
