For those interested, the Xbox 360 does sport some early DX10 functionality including gpu tessellation that was used in Halo Wars with their vector field terrain. Here's a link to Colt McAnlis's GDC session (one of the my favs of that year) you can skip to "LOD Round3 - Hardware" section of the talk to get to it:…
I like your portfolio and your highpoly work. But why are you showing the texture of the airconditioning in your reel when you don't show the model? I must admit I've skipped a little through the video (but did this two times to make sure I'm not missing something) so there is a chance I just missed the airconditioning…
I am planning to update the Ram mem to about 16-24gb, update the gpu and buy another storage possibly SSD to speed up the system. Hopefully it isnt vender locked in. (That was my main concern.) This is the motherboard As for the VMs; VBox is good because you can run different VMs but the disadvantage of it is you cant run…
Nah just plug in a 360 controller, works for me. If anybody is looking for a cheap USB gamepad, Gamestop sells their own brand of 360 controllers that are like under $20. I've used it for a ton of steam games so far, and most of the time they recognize that I'm using a 360 controller and all the UI changes. Any game on…

Man, AMT Mesh Blend 1.1 plugin has issues with saving meshes in the Floating Assets Library. For some unknown reason it keeps randomly deleting some of my meshes i saved. It's super frustrating! Please double check it before releasing v 1.2. It might as well have problems with saving and memorizing high poly meshes…
I would recommend posting the lava flow question on the UDK site, they have a huge community and you can get your answer there, I am sure http://forums.epicgames.com/forumdisplay.php?f=366 'level design and creation' forum is your best bet for this query. I am not sure if this would work, but here goes: you want to go to…
What do you guys do about music? Does it distract you? Do you listen to a variety of songs/genres, or only one genre while working? I listen to Spotify and have about 3600 songs, but I’ll find myself often going back and forth between working and skipping songs that I don’t want to listen to until I find a song that I…
