Re: City Environment
Kitteh - Thanks for the critique on the car and do understand that there are some edge loops that can be remove and I left it like that is because of a habit I have when modeling cars. I try and keep things in quad and only use tris in certain area. The model is a 1990 honda crx but decided to make a few changes as I was… -
Re: UDK or Unity, manga-esque shader
vector compose and decompose (making float3 to 3 floats and vice versa) you also got to know the values of the muls and additions/substractions the minuses from top to bottom = 4 3 2 1, the mul on the right of the minuses is 5 the muls on the bottom are 16 and 9 (screen aspect ratio) and the laswt mul is a multiplier for… -
Re: Tablets: lots of questions
In that price range a Motion LE 1600 (or lower model) on ebay might be a good fit. Don't expect to do much if any 3d work on it though. Also IIRC the screen res is 1024 x 768 so Photoshop will probably feel really cramped. I've got a Toshiba m200 which runs at a 1400 x 1050 resolution so it's not too bad although it's a… -
Re: Hand painted swamp environment
Another update finally! I have been working on a truck for a while now (my first vehicle!) and am ready to show the progress on it. The model is completed and I am currently working on the texture for it. Here is my stylized take on a 1980 Ford Bronco: Will have the texture done today or tomorrow! And as I have yet to find… -
Re: Not Your Average Software Debate
what really helped me get into modelling way back in the day were small, focused tools. definitely not the massive all-in-one programs you tend to use in a studio setting. i started with softimage 3D and later 3ds max at university but modelling i only started to enjoy when using a software called nendo, a little… -
Re: Why realistic graphics matters to games
It's a bit hard to pinpoint when do graphics play a role in emotion. On one hand, there was the case during the 1990s when games like Mortal Kombat and Doom were almost deemed a public scare because of how detailed the violence had gotten. But you also had another game, Night Trap, which was even more real but also… -
Re: PC-CSGO| AWP Keyboard Warrior [Done]
Thanks for the advise! I went back to the drawing board and decided that a black AWP is quite unoriginal and decided to scrap the previous idea. Although i'm still drawing some inspiration from Tron, i've decided to also draw some inspiration for the old 1980's grid patterns i found while looking for references. Decided to… -
Re: Californininia Moving questions
That's a crazy idea, what if you move to cali and then you get a job offer in Texas? Mythic covered my moving expense to VA, I think the moving truck cost maybe 2-3 grand then after that I had to pay first month of rent on an apartment, security deposits etc... my first apartment here was $1350 a month for a 1 bedroom...… -
Re: Oldness!!!
Thanks for the complements! I think your right about the bumpmap on the banister, i was going for flaking lead paint but took it a bit to far. As for the repeating patterns, i will admit that they are all tiled at least 10x10 throughout the scene and that takes away from the believable variations. I do feel, despite the… -
Re: How many times have you relocated for a game job?
Three times. Michigan to Connecticut in 1980. Michigan to Wisconsin in 1993. Wisconsin to Texas in 1997. I didn't move when I changed jobs here in Dallas four years ago and am very near my "commute tolerance" limit. Roughly 30 years since I started working on games. 27.5 if you count when I took my first full time…
