Re: Enviro Art question: Does level size affect employment??
Logic break down of big level in my eyes: A big level = more content. More content = more work. More work = need for motivation/dedication/planning/etc. All of that = pretty daunting. Daunting 'usually' = a lot of really mediocre pieces to fill out the env. That = a meh portfolio piece. Meh portfolio piece = probably no… -
Re: The Departed - Film of the year?
[ QUOTE ] Hmm, I just got back from it. I enjoyed it a lot - great acting in general (Jack Nicholson was superb), and I liked the plot. START SPOILERS! I have to agree with Jam though, I didn't know what happened to that yellow envelope the woman ended up with, or what it was even for. It just seemed like a random thing… -
Re: Warzone Environment
Yeah, Shep speaks the truth. Make the room look nice when it's fairly empty, and it'll look even better with props. That way you establish what's most important to the environment first, and you can spend the rest of your time until whatever deadline you have on unnecessary but nifty decorations. If you do props first you… -

Re: Priss (BGC 2040)
Looks good from what little I know about the series. I think the texture could benefit from being more than just solid colors and linework. I realize you said you were using a cel shader, but as it stands it's very bland and visually boring. I'd try to get some kind of metal texture going on to vary up material types, some… -
Re: Week in hell!
wow I'm glad you're doing better, hopefully that won't happen again! It's kind of ironic that it happened at PF Changs. I have a mild allergy to wheat and glutton and its one of the places I can get an allergy free meal. Changs Chicken FTW. It took me 5 years of being sick to my stomach after almost every meal before we… -
[TF2] How to create weapon skins from scratch?
Ok here's the dilemma I'm in. I want to create a skin for the scrapped Nail Grenade in TF2, as it didn't come with a skin. However, I want to give it lots of detail and make it look very TF2-like. The only problem is, I don't know how to create a skin from scratch or generate a <whatever>Map for a TF2 .MDL file. By… -
Re: Creating a Modular Weapon Pipeline
Everything these guys said pretty much covers it. I'll try to add/illustrate some points as well. What i didn't hear anyone say, Is it's probably a good idea to have a fixed number of components, Because it looks very strange when one is missing. Gearbox did this occasionally with BL1 with the SMG's and them being stock… -
Re: racist or funny?
WOW how humor has changed. I remember the days (not that long ago) when this would have gotten a chuckle and not sparked such a "hot debate". I remeber movies making fun of "terrorists" and "funny generalizations" and no one thought twice about it. Movies like Airplane, even Back to the Future used terrorists in a…
