Re: Early testers wanted (platform for indie & solo game devs)
Sure. But you’re just starting out, with zero experience. It may seem like an indirect course, but at this point you don’t know what you don’t know. Trying to create a game on your own, from scratch, is bound to be a frustrating experience. Using an already-functional game will allow you to learn via situational progress. -
RGCA - Assassin's Creed Fan Fiction Game Trailer
Topic by Wolfzone Digital · · Home› Contests & Challenges Archives› Reallusion Game Character Animation ContestEver since the first Assassin's Creed was launched in 2007, I've been a fan of the series. I've always thought about making a fan fiction cinematic trailer of my own for it just for fun. This contest gives me the perfect opportunity to finally take a shot. I'll be producing the animation action shots and scenes in iclone.… -
Re: What small tablet ( without screen) is ok currently?
ive not tried any of the tablets but in terms of actual pen displays - I've got a 24" huion thats better in basically every way than the 22" cintiq i was using 6-7 years ago at work (it functions correctly on linux as well) the drivers/software are pretty decent and certainly less intrusive than the older wacom ones -
Re: Alien Cave Creature - (normal mapping practice)WIP *DELETED*
Seeing as noone else has posted here I'll jump in. Normal mapping is pretty streight forward these days, the toughest bit being getting your cage set up nicely. What I would sugest you do is work on your sculpting skills before tinkering with normal maps. Download Arsh's base meshs and any other good SDK/free material you… -
Re: Model viewer for skinning
Poop, thanks for that suggestion, all of the other programs that do this are way too bloated with other crap fuctions i don't want, and this one's pretty good! So, for me it's Deepexploration (3dexploration doesn't work properly with my videocard or drivers or something.. so i just use the trial version of deepexp, it's… -
Re: Nightshade UV Editor (Maya)
Hello guys, First of all, I would like to thank Martin (DEADLY NIGHTSHADE) for his incredible work on Nightshade UV Editor. It really makes UV Mapping in Maya a lot more convenient. In past month I was lurking around and had a thought: the only thing I really miss in regard to NSUV is the ability to set up some hotkeys for… -
Adding the mouse cursor to HUD?
Hello, I'm new to UScript and a friend of mine pointed me to a tutorial on the UDN that shows how to get the mouse cursor to show up and interact with a level in UDK. I'm slowly going through this tutorial, but I seem to be having a couple of issues. I'm getting 3 errors that I'm not sure how to fix. I don't want to open… -
Re: Practicality vs Aesthetics
Great points Snader. I agree with everything you say. I'm a firm believer of finding that balance to make a memorable character. For instance, 'commander vanderhuge'. His outfit is very functional and aesthetically pleasing. My main issue with him is that if you put him into a group with his men, you will lose him in the… -
Re: How to design 3d hard surface spaceships?
Greebles for the sake of greebles, nowhere for the eye to rest. No functionality for that giant glass chest. Those would be my thoughts. Fictional spaceship design is about three things: 1) Silhouette. Your ship should have an angle(s) that it's immediately readable from. Eric's pieces start with the silhouette and go in… -
Re: "Thumbnailing"
Ninjas, could you elaborate on how you feel thumbnailing is counterproductive to functional design? I don't thumbnail much either, ESPECIALLY on the mechanical designs I've done, but I don't see it as being mutually exclusive to function whatsoever. The knowledge it takes to draw functional thumbnails (restricting yourself…
