Re: F.E.A.R. 2 Project Origin
I'm wondering if the person at Kotaku, or the mindless peons who comment on Kotaku, realize that this is part of Fear2's viral marketing site. http://kotaku.com/5138592/fear-2-trailer-employs-beaten+to+death-joke-bewbs The infomercial is really really lame.

Help! I need realistic lights, IN SPACE, from far away! [UE4]
Alrighty, so I'm working on a hard science space sim in UE4 and we're trying to figure out how to create super realistic, small and tight lights that can be seen from up close AND far away.

Re: Garden Bench

If you want an absolutely accurate and unique AO bake for each of the mesh elements in your low poly, you're going to have to provide a unique UV space for even the items that COULD be clones since each low poly… -
Re: Death of THQ?
What the hell? We've taken the time to articulate our points of view in such a way as to show how we feel as CONSUMERS, as GAMERS, and as DEVELOPERS without letting it spiral into the very debate about piracy that polycount wish to avoid and unfortunately must censor so this doesn't become a flame war and you bring it… -
