Re: Nick Dariano Portfolio Update
On your resume (grr... pdf... grumble, grumble) you should remove the amounts from the scholarships; the award is the important thing, and the actual amount is immaterial and may seem a bit like bragging. I find the years - especially highlighted in gray as they are - a bit distracting. Try it without dates, with the dates… -
Re: Lord Of The Rings - Assets [WIP]
Hey guys, thanks for guiding me! To begin with I went ahead and retopologized? the sword into more uniform quads as you 2 suggest :) . After that I went ahead and started focusing on MichaelElphick's technique towards leather straps around the handle by masking and extracting each one then adding some small amounts of… -
Re: Uncharted 4 Art Dump
The pillar is pretty high poly but it is also a really well baked normal map on low. The chandelier on the right is polys with alpha. So when we think about draw computation even something as dense like that is not so bad considering behind that is a relatively simple mesh roof arches shape. so since it is on that spot it… -
Re: Do you salvage your projects?
Depends on to what degree its better and the amount of time spent vs the amount of time you could put towards learning something else. When you are starting out each task you do will help you get better and better. Thats a given, but if you remake the same barrel or grass over and over again the skill gains you will make… -
Re: Maya destroys character-rig (including erlier saves)
Hej Ludde. This is just a general theory of mine, and I've had similar thoughts myself before. When people say that Maya "destroys" their saves and that none of them work I feel that from experience when looking at these saves they tend to have a crazy stack of history on their objects. So my theory is that while working… -
Re: Am i too old?
Well, I'm 28 and have only been seriously learning the craft for about a year and a half. Before that, I dabbled in 3D for a couple of years while working in advertising sales and tech support. I'm entirely self-taught, as I can't afford formal schooling either, and probably wouldn't bother with it even if I could. I don't… -
Re: Points For Toothbrushing: The Gaming Speech Everyone Is Talking About
I stopped lurking on these forums just to reply to this lol. The point biggest point I caught onto from Jesse's presentation, was the untapped potential of these unexpected games he mentions. I believe most of the gaming community's voice to this day isn't heard. Sure we hear about the main platform games, Assassin's Creed… -
Re: [UDK] The Riddler's Den
Hey everyone, I feel I owe you all an explanation about why it's been so long since I updated this. Basically, I lost focus, I'm on my summer holidays and there are games I wanted to play and people I wanted to see. I was coming in and fiddling with small assets but not really achieving anything. Not to mention, I still… -
Re: Jelmer Boskma - Demo Reel '06
Hey guys, Thanks for all the replies. I realise my reel is more catered towards vfx houses then game studios. But since I've been here for a while, I didn't want to not post it here. The sketches might not be as well done as the 3D models, but I do want to show that I'm not just all digital but that I enjoy drawing as… -
Re: somebody want my job?
maybe it's just me... but i just don't understand the american business place. (i realise vancouver is in canada...) but over here we have employment contracts, signed by employer and employee, stating that your required hours each month must be hit to be paid your salery. this is usually around the 39-42 hours a week…
