Re: the UK is a shit hole
Possibly. Some thoughts: 1) The UK media has a distinct tendency to fixate on and exaggerate this stuff. The British pubic are definitely prone to doing the same self loathing 'oh woe is us' shit too. They're not happy unless they're unhappy. People have been saying stuff like 'the country is going to the dogs' since WW2.… -
Re: Woodworking and other real world projects
Any hatchet that's less than 3 lbs will work well for splitting small branches and roughing out shapes. Japan has a pretty good selection of suitable hatchets; then for a knife, the common one to use is the Morakniv 106, which you can get on amazon. For hollowing spoon bowls, there are many spoon knives to choose from,… -
Re: Rage tech/workflow?
We make kinect games at our studio with a very small art team so the logistics of the rage engine would destroy our productivity. I'm trying to steer our lighting tech to fully real time for our next project. Baked lighting was the single biggest bottleneck in our art production last year. Our designers use the agile… -
Re: War Torn Town
Are you thinking WW2 war torn? Because typically before any street fighting started, the area was bombed and shelled to death. Then tanks typically went through buildings instead of down the street where traps where set. Then as whoever was driven out of the city they shelled and bombed it trying to slow down or retake the… -
Re: Sci-Fi Assault Rifle - Constructive Crits [Year 2 University]
you should create a fully subdivided model to bake onto your low poly so that your model doesn't have these unnaturally sharp edges. Without a proper bake, the model is going to look very primitive like a ps1 game. You should always keep up reference for the material you're texturing. Just open up google images and type… -

Re: [UE4] Learning Lighting Art
Was looking for something to do last night, so here's a RL of the Root Cellar enviro on the Marketplace - ArtStation Before: After: Other than lighting, I adjusted some roughness values, and moved the position of that bare bulb. This was the only room in the scene I re-lit. Tried to get the most out of the basement windows… -
Re: Career Advancement tips
I guess "socially awkward" does look a bit negative, please don't mistake it for incompetence. What I should of said is I'm introverted. http://giftedkids.about.com/b/2006/07/13/shy-or-introverted.htm I don't get nervous in social situations, I just don't have any interest in small talk. I do like to discuss topics that… -
Re: THQ shut down Kaos Studios
Cheeseplus: I'm not posing my question as if I am directing all the blame on the evil corporation. I just see this happening a lot and it is showing a pattern that is has me concerned. Publisher buys a rising star studio, they make them run their best work into the ground, then they finally dump the studio once they've… -
