Re: Brothers in Arms
Actually Brothers in Arms is the only world war 2 game ever that was officially endorsed by the veterans. The veterans actively supported the making of this game with eye witness accounts, too. Here's the press release from May 28: Ubisoft announced today that Gearbox Software's Brothers in Arms has received official… -
Re: Arizona's new immigration law
There will be elements of that I'm sure. It's virtually impossible to regulate every action a human can do so I just prefer ways of thinking that give the people more freedom and liberty to do what they want and opt for less market interference. With everything governments try to regulate an unintended consequence almost… -
Re: Art Institute grads/students
You know, threads like this are really helpful to people like me. 19 years old, been out of high school for a couple years now. As with most high school kids, growing up everyone in the world would shit on me and tell me to go to college - my parents specifically wanted something like AI. I was never against college, but I… -
Re: "The Secret"
I would say that quote from Bill Hicks is really more part of a rant, than a joke...its just a rant thats also funny, but it also makes a very good point. That the news shapes peoples perception of things, and that in particular people are fed alot of crap in support of the "war on drugs." If you do nothing but tell people… -
Re: Explosions in London !!!
Last night on the news they had someone who is a former terrorist who was caught and was in jail for a few years. He said that the biggest deterrent was "life as usual".

Re: [UDK] Modular Prince of Persia Palace
Hi guys. I had some things to do IRL and had to pause a bit this project. When I came back to it, I decided to start over after watching some tutorials on using a modular workflow. The blockout looked alright but it was not really well thought-of for each piece. So this time I worked first on the texture using a grid… -
Re: Comparing wireframe topology in Games compared to Films
the general modelling and topology process between game and film isn't radically different. One influences the asset is the pipeline and final output. Both will require clean geometry and good even topology, and both will also use things like LODs. Games however, even on high end engines, will require a tighter budget to… -
Re: thoughts on Linux?
I do use Linux everyday for 8 years now. OS wise, you'll have to learn how the system works and it's going to be a bit tough the first few weeks because it's quite different than mac OS and windows, mainly because it's not an all-in-one package. You have the freedom to choose between a _lot_ of path for your system, the… -
Re: Africa and South America are ignored...
Yeah, but it's not just that. In african history you can find some of the most extreme examples of ethnic hatred and xenophobia that aren't really a result of foreign influence. It also shows power and wealth can corrupt people who previously lived in poverty. I've recently read some books by Ryszard Kapuściński. I can't… -
Re: About Pixel Art
This sort of thing kinda goes into why people still really love how certain early 3D games look. Einhander, Megaman Legends 1 and 2, that one Wile E. Coyote game for the playstation. All these games use a lot of managed color tones, and in the case of the latter 2 examples, flat shading to achieve a style that goes beyond…
