Thanks ysalex. The open day is not until March, but Blitz needed a work sample sent to judge my worthiness :) I'll find out if I got a place on the 23rd. Snader, I did some further optimisation on the wheel hubs and got them each down to 266 tris from 571 originally. Still too high, and I could probably halve that again by…
So do standard quad cores. I'm running a LGA775 based mobo, so for me to upgrade its got to be a major improvement in performance as I'd need to not only get a new cpu, but a new mobo and ram as well. upgrading all that for another quad core when their are 6 core processors on the market (even if they're overly spendy atm)…
Thinking about the advice i got from the last model i uploaded i coudnt wait to get to practice it, so i set out to find another little robot i found interesting, something from another great artist, i found Alberto Boscolo with this little guy https://www.instagram.com/p/BGkeLs6LgC0/ already spent a coupple of days in…
So I've been working heavily on 3D and with unreal engine 3 programming this academic year, hasn't left much time for posting up on forum threads or blogs. I'm maintaining 3 threads just for university modules already. Here's a few examples of some of the 3D I've produced over the last couple months :) 360 turn arounds of…

Thank to Pleasure and Eric Ramberg for the chance to be a part of this great contest- here's my entry. For a better understanding why I'm using these materials Product informations - this a portable tea can for grenade design fans - you can wear it with the ring or bar on your belt - be always informed how much is inside…
I don't think that sounds right either. 15.3M polygons a second sounds like far too much, I mean even the original PSP can't do anything like that, sounds more like the Vita specs honestly, and even then I'd say its probably pushing it. That'd make the 3DS on par with the 360 and the ps3 practically. From what I understand…
Everyone should get dibs on that AI brain system from Lord of the Rings and Narnia . I'd love to see better AI, as well as better lighting systems like realtime GI and Sub Surface Scattering. I've seen these in demos, but not in any production games. Malcolm - CoD2 certainly has lightmapping in it. Not sure if you're…
[ QUOTE ] Although the 360 and PS3 are pricey, they are not out of line price-wise with older consoles, if you take inflation into account. [/ QUOTE ] But not if you take commodization into account. The VCS costs more than a PS3, sure, but compare PC prices from 1985 to today's prices. Back then an office PC cost well into…
[ QUOTE ] So, -$100 is "signifigantly cheaper"? That's 2 games, or 1 hard drive. That's nothing. Or, -$200 from the deluxe PS3. That's 4 games. So you save an extra 2 weeks, and only buy 1 game at launch. Still not that bad. [/ QUOTE ]Don't forget the new TV with the updated version of HDMI which you'll need to get the…
