Re: Ori and the blind Forest
Man, this game just HAS to get some kind of award for it's visuals, even if it's just start of 2015. Order and other games are nice and stuff, but artistic touch in this game is just mind blowing. Yes, i'm hyped about this game. :P -
Re: 7 years ago: what where you doing?
16, in high school. Benching 315 lbs, which is a good 90lbs more then I can do now. I got my first computer that year. Quake and Unreal had a big impact on me deciding to become a game developer. -
Re: What headphones do you use?
A set of Sennheiser HD 215s (these things). Pretty good for the price although definitely what'd be considered "entry level". The swivel earpiece bit is useful for the office, too. Can hear people try and talk to you and listen to music at the same time. -

Re: high frequency normal maps

Re: Vector Displacement Maps and Bit Depth
I'd do this in Nuke, ( or natron ) because as you say photoshop clamp the viewport value. ( at least for me ) You just want to move your blackpoint until your mid value is set to 0.5, then you'll be able to use it as a 8 or 16bit map -

Re: SD Negative displacement for ground tile grout is there a node for this?
you cant go below 0 in designer so there is no "downward" displacement as such, you have to shift everything up so that "0" is represented by 0.5 in this case you need to adjust the bricks so that the lowest value is greater than the highest value in the grout
