Re: Motivation to work when you get home
I dunno, I don't really have a problem with it. I guess I'm just really driven. I never have problems starting something new or following through with it eventually. I enjoy it just as much as playing games or doing other things, so it's easy for me. I suppose part of it is because I am not working as an artist right now.… -
Delay Delivery
Let me tell you how much I want to hug the man who created “delay delivery” in outlook. At my job, I am very responsive in email – too responsive. If I see a quick question I like to answer it right away as I’m designing something. The problem is that people often take this to mean I’m sitting at my desk twiddling… -

Most of the time you don't even need to mess with the FBX settings, but click the gear if you do. - Use the models tab to… -
Re: Shadow Popping?
For what it's worth, this has been annoying me for the last few months so I did some digging and debugging and found out that the culprit was indeed the virtual shadow maps and that I could see the clipmap/mip level issues in the debug view. Directional light popping: Debug view: For the directional light, I edited the… -
Re: UDK Deep Sea Shrine
Looks cool. Just doesn't seem like its under the sea to me. The earthy colors make it feel like its under ground, not so much under the sea. Maybe its just me, but I think some blue/green lighting might sell that a little more. Of course I'm not really familiar with your inspiration for this, so if I'm off then ignore me.…
