Re: Transitioning from VFX
I started out in feature film/television work and was able to make the transition. Much of the skill set transfers over, but you'll definitely have to pick up some new skills. I'd definitely show your best pre-rendered stuff on your portfolio, but you definitely have to have very solid real-time game work as well. If you… -
Re: Boom! Hard drives!
For the record burning to discs isn't a permanent solution as pretty much all discs suffer degredation over time and eventually your data becomes corrupt. I learned this the hard way when I lost work from about a few years ago because the disc is packed with CRC errors now. Unfortunately it's even worse now because the… -

Re: Adobe acquires Allegorithmic makers of Substance Painter & Designer
In 25 years Adobe have killed off countless innovative programs. They are the Adesk of the 2D graphic world. It may not be for a few years, but Substance tools, as we know them, will suffer greatly.

Re: Game Development adopting Hollywood Culture
I am perhaps making too many assumptions with the phrase, Matt. I guess as examples of Hollywood Culture: 1) Showrunners having always final say. Like always. 2) Actors being incredibly flaky and tempermental(not just the good ones, all of them collectively) 3) The "do anything for fame/a chance." Could be sexual favors,… -

Re: PC dies thread :(
It's extremely odd that your old PC should exhibit the same (or similar) symptoms with the new peripherals. They draw what little power they need from the PC, so I can't see them being the problem. Did your old PC get past the 'Power On Self Test' stage, eg did you see anything on the monitor? You're not running the…
