Having a life. Spending time with friends. You list these things like they are a bad thing. Really? I hate to be the odd man out here since everyone is gushing and agreeing with Hazardous, but those are two of the most important things in life. When all is said and done, having a "life" is really all that matters and it's…
When we were doing final color grading at the video production company I worked at, we used a multi thousand dollar studio monitor....and a worthless 15 year old TV as well. Because most people don't watch TV on a 15 thousand dollar monitor. I'm sure a really good monitor would be useful in a AAA studio because you need to…
There's some cool stuff in this thread. Here are a couple of my recordings. The first video is improvised blues rock with some original riffs. [ame=" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5eTOLfP9mg8&feature=related"]Joel Tansley Blues Rock Jam - YouTube[/ame] It's weird how small the SG looks when I'm holding it. The second…
http://www.survivor-online.co.uk/celeb/iac3/johnny.php Oh my god! He's only 47 years old?! Damn, Punk Rock makes you age prematurely. My brother is 50 and is just as skinny with 80 percent less wrinkles. It's kinda odd how he dresses like he's still in the early 80's late 70's. It's kinda like when hippys still wear long…
i have a ton of the gnomon dvds thanks to good old AI - San Diego and I think they are great. While they may not be something that can teach you a complete way to do something (although I think some could) it is the little things you can pick up on and learn that are really helpful. I have a pretty cool set on how to cast…
You know, I don't actually mind the gameplay... Granted there are a few annoying things, plus they REALLY need to sort out the odd center crosshair... The only issue I have so far is the enviros looks dull as a dullard and, well, 3 years old. COMPARED to everything else in the game. Lets not forget guys this is MS's likely…
If you're really aiming for a more reasonable in-game polycount, you'd want to see about getting that sub 10k. Dug one of the old max files up for this and the near lod is just under 7,500 tris. Obviously a ton of the scrolly bits and sculptural elements were ground down and faked alot. Even then, most of the polys went…
After handling a dev station wii controller (nunchuck setup), I definitely don't see comfort being a top mark for the system. The two controllers are tiny as all hell, and completely different weights, which makes them exremely odd to hold. The electronics inside the nunchuck setup are pretty basic, as is the plastic molds…
Havent been modelling for quite some time, and the idear of starting a major project was daunting. So instead I launched a small one with an old enemy, the hand. Donno if its worth posting, or if it can hold any interrest at all. Non the less xD... I did. Wanted a tech'ish glove, used for combat (maby a sniper). "Low poly"…
@musashidan Thank you for that last tip about UE adding that 1px to lightmap that is the kind of info I'm searching for that isn't stated in docs. :-) (I will need to redo some unwraps now to take that into account), I finally found way to look at lightmaps for some visual insight what is going on. They can be accessed…
