Hmm right now i think it's not fully optimized yet. But it's still alpha ofcourse. A complete new engine so it's normal that it still needs some optimization. (especially this early). I use a i5-3570K with an hd7870oc and had no problems running it on max settings though full windowed mode (dual screens). CPU load was a…
Well most of my freelancing gigs came from people I knew in the industry. Almost none came from "cold calling". I personally charge for rework that is because the client changes their mind, or wasn't clear to begin with. I use an hourly rate for the reworks. I didn't register as anything, in the US I just filed as an…
kinetichaze > gauss > vrav I assume it has a sort of low gait, being so topheavy... she's just standing it up to get a look around. [22:39] Vrv: Not really sure what's in the forearms, actually [22:39] Vrv: Was thinking maybe some sort of plasma... wave [22:40] Vrv: Like, the forearm/claw gets engulfed in a sort of blue…
[ QUOTE ] I don't think what PfhorRunner linked will work, as it just converts 44-pin to 40-pin IDE. What I think you need is a converter to go from ATA on your hard drive to plain ol' IDE inside your computer. Something like this is my guess: [/ QUOTE ] ATA and IDE are synonymous. I think what you meant was Serial ATA,…
This might sound daft but can someone please save me a zbrush project from 4r5 (can just have a sphere or something in) with radial symmetry turned on and set to 100. I just had a crash and it seems that whatever the radial count was set to (in this case 40) has somehow been stored and it won't allow a larger number to be…

The video link above shows my work so far. It ran at 30-40 fps on an iPhone device when the draw calls…

The studies showing the laws of diminishing returns with working hours are literally half a century old. The labor law of thermal dynamics can't be got around, no matter how hard shitty managers stamp their feet. Work a person for more than 60 hours a week for more then 2 weeks without going back to a normal 40 hour week,…
Mid-30's is usually when people make the decision to leave or stay in the games industry. That's the time when you have to start living a fully adult lifestyle. The 40+ people are the lifers who don't want to do anything else. I've only met two artists that were in their 40's and still grinding out models and textures.…
40-50 Hours closer to 40, my family is more important than my job. I try to make sure my time while working is hyper-focused and efficient and limit the chattiness, but in a team environment, proper amounts of downtime is good for morale. I will do personal crunch from time to time, mostly just when it is needed or I…
