Re: Looking for info on tri counts for modern environments (yes, I know it depends) :)
How many polys in a piece of string... 1 a plane with a texture and an alpha map. :) Alright alright, you want more info, I'm ok with that. I would say I am shooting for something more along the lines of a FPS look. I plan on rendering this scene out once its done with a camera fly through so I'm not concerned with… -
Re: Polycount Study Group D
Boo Yaa! OK...so I guess we just post our chosen project for the group. I started one the other day knowing that this study group thing might kick off. So here we go. I spose I should post a mission statement with this as well, so you guys know what I want to achieve with this. Mission Statement: Even though I've been in… -
Re: Help me convince my brother
What's the point of buying a DX11 card when you can't run DX11 anything? That's a smart move, drop a few hundred on ram and a video card he'll never use... that totally makes sense. Even if there is one DX11 game that he wants to play but can't is enough to justify having the hardware and SOFTWARE to support the game. I've… -
Re: high res sculpting - why bother?
I think they have a standard head mesh they project onto the cleaned up scan, and then project textures from camera positions in maya or nuke or something else. Ok I think I'm starting to see your point and maybe agree with you - under certain circumstances. Under 360/PS3 gen art budgets, it would be really easy to take a… -
Re: [WIP] Environment Portfolio in Progress
I dunno. I see that approach. Like here's a bunker that has a gun in it. Scott Homer http://scotthomer.co.uk did that with his first portfolio (which was amazing btw). So I think there's merit in that. More so instead of spreading yourself thin trying this or that. Just focus on what you want to do. If it's current/next… -

Re: How long to hear back from job apps?
Indeed, I applied to about 75 places overall, only heard anything (even automated repsonses) from maybe 20ish. Some might email and ask something(so you think "Oh, they're showing some interest!") you reply and may well never hear from them again. Some might email you saying your portfolio has been forwarded to a team to… -
Re: Game Engine Opinions
When you're licensing an engine you don't have to care about whether they have games already. UE3.0 is available for license NOW. On the other hand I expect Doom 3 to make quite a few steps forward as well. iD doesn't use all the features available to them because no PC could handle that so their engines remain relevant… -
Re: Irons portfolio
Cholden Resume link is there but since you missed it I am going to bold it and up the font size a notch. Moving forward I like the suggestion to do a scene in engine. I have a few UT levels and a small continent built up in NWN. Nothing next gen so Ill go that direction next. MikeF I agree about the resin look. Ill… -
Re: Blizzard induces pants sexytime explosion
[ QUOTE ] Edit again: just saw an interesting quote from another forum "Well the theory behind being NOT nex-gen at all is so it can be available for South Korea users, who control the Starcraft market, and GeForce4 is an average graphic card in there." [/ QUOTE ] That's how the company has always looked at it. From a…
