Re: Compensation for crunch in the games industry?
Wow thanks for the help guys, i really appreciate it! To sum it up: Ambershee, I see your point: while cruching is a standard, compensation is not. It depends on the management of the company. Paying overtime and/or giving days off is also national law in Austria. Rhinokey, thanks for your advice man, it helped a lot. You… -
Re: New post - the noob kind
This is definately a good place to become a better artist. From experience and summed down for you: 1: Work on your art skills, post stuff here if you need crit and help, people on polycount are very good at giving constructive critisism that will help you understand your stengths and weaknesses. Your most important asset… -
Re: UI discussion: Windows 8 starting to look like the new 3dsMax direction
Oh! I see what you mean, I should have phrased it more clearly. I dislike it because it seems to follow the trend of multiplying ways to access a given function, instead of committing to only one or two efficient ways. I generally disagree with the idea that a UI design has to "appeal to everyone". The picked design should… -
Re: [UDK] Sci Fi Tram Station
Hey everyone, i've been preparing for my final academic year of game design / development, and over the years have become more and more interested in next generation mobile content, specifically, 3D content. Games such as ShadowGun, and Infinity Blade are exactly what interests me the most. Obviously with this level of… -
Re: Denmark refuses to apologize over Prophet cartoons
I think the entire thing sums up the fundamental problem amongst radical Muslims and why they are at odds with the west. Offensive political cartoon gets written. Lets burn down the embassy. Westerners view that as an extreme overreaction. Apparently Muslims do not. I'm fairly certain that the US would not have a presence… -

Re: (Solved) [Blender 2.8] Shader Editor: Is there a light direction input node?
What you're trying to do is called "NPR" (Non-Photorealistic Rendering), there's a dedicated website with some info on the subject: https://blendernpr.org/category/tutorial/ The method @Jekyll told you is a cool way to get information that's not usually available in nodes, into nodes. You bind a Converter->Combine XYZ or… -
Re: Switching 3d Software a bad idea?
Nope, Max has better ones. Anyone giving you the fanboy talk is bound to be ... just a single-minded fanboy (sorry to offend your friend, but so far I've met many of this kind and they all fit into the same archetype). You won't get any speed increase by switching over ; at best you might become as fast, but not faster.… -
Re: How do you balance work vs personal art vs family vs friends?
I just go with the flow and do what I want to do, I sometimes do overtime because I'm really enjoying what I'm doing. Other times I'm passionate about personal work. But I personally take a fairly laid back approach, I do what I want when I want. I can sometimes go weeks without doing any personal work, other times it can… -
Re: Looking for help
@Biomag, man thanks so much for the info, that pretty much sums up a lot of things for me. In regards to what I am trying to accomplish. I am making a game and the environment theme is a catacombs (not a dungeon, think Paris Catacombs). I want it to be highly modular so all the parts snap together like lego in the game…
