Again, for most games fill rate woes from transparency overdraw is a bigger problem than dropping your instanced bush prop from 500 tris to 300. This kind of stuff is just excessive optimization because of the things that Pior and Xoliul mentioned. Each additional vertex in a contiguous surface is cheaper to draw than the…
>3> Thanks! Ill be hunting for kits when i get my uni grant in October. ( Realised i have £300 for the next 6 weeks xD ) Completely true about the hands. Though right now i'm leaving them rigid for rigging. As they sit even with Hp they'll be easy to rig up. Plus there a pain in the arse to move joint by joint. Well first…
@PlateCaptain: are you using the same HDRI IBL setup in both programs? If not it will always look different in some way I think. Also did you set the image node of the normal map in blender to noncolor-data? Also that looks like an awefull lot of fireflies. Try clamp direct and clamp indirect at 3.0 (sampling section,…

The weight savings for an aluminum frame when compared to a frame with this type of tubing is minimal, if there is any difference at all. Yet the steel tubing tends to be much more durable and far less prone…

With many times the inability to play games from older systems. Are PCs more expensive? Yes. Is there more of a learning curve? Yes. On…
Our game is more or less an example of what happens if you're not decisive enough with your design, try to do too much and your team doesn't have the skills and or experience to pull it off. Still, a valuable learning experience if nothing else. http://globalgamejam.org/2012/j%C3%B6rmungandr Our entire jam (120+ people) is…
thanks for the feedback man, tinkered with the lighting and stuff, and got a massive performance boost with ue4.14, also decreased the file size down to about 300-ish megabytes. it's nice to be able to play it on epic settings and have everything running lag free. did a few bug fixes too. added more stuff to the level and…
