Re: Bungie leaves Microsoft????????????
Maybe they had some sort of contract deal. Coincidence that this news come out days after their 3rd game published by MS? I know studios do contract deals saying that you must do x amount of games for us in y amount of years mumbo-jumbo, but 3 is usually the magic number. Just look at any big franchise movies - they sign… -
Re: Tech issue: Can't find ethernet port?
This just occurred to me: Since it's an Ethernet connection to my router (which has been proven to work on the laptop), I shouldn't need drivers or anything, right? Unfortunately, the installer-process is quite painful, and since the router's been set up on another computer: also quite useless. How would I go about setting… -
Re: Hipoly Male Head Texturing
the issue with the eyes is very simple, and i said this in my earlier post: the shadow that people think is missing is not natural darkness of the material (which actually needs to be more bloody, more skintone, like lonewolf said). theres a drop shadow from the eye lids which makes top area of the eye darker, just like in… -
Re: Displacement Maps 3ds Max
You cant create a usable height-map by converting it from some other map. Instead, you must pick up detail from a highpoly model and put it into the texture of a low-poly model (the lowpoly model can just be a single polygon square plane too). To get a heightmap, you must pick it up from a highpoly. The fact that there is… -
Re: DESTROY ME CRITIC LOL
Your scene is very noisy and not pleasant to look at. Too much stuff is happening. Its confusing to determine what is the main focus. My eyes are drawn to the "mobile garden" first because its in the center of the screen and the white material in light is very distracting. Being that its a custom made object - that people… -
Re: Concept Sculpting VS 2D concepting
Valandar, that "Excellent" of yours would be something very subjetive. I don't know traditional or 3d sculptors without pencil skills. The guys without tradional skills always do poor sculpts, and they have more difficulties in the procress of learning, and that's why they end learning some basics. We have different points… -
Re: Development Machines
I think the best and most cost effective thing would be for one of your team members to be a hardware expert. I myself don't know much about hardware, but my brother knows the stuff inside and out and I have him for advice. I thought I had a fast PC, and then he built another one for me for about $1000 bucks and it is… -
Re: open world game map
This is a large task indeed but I can give you some tips. You have the overall design of the map, that's good. Also the way you designed it (island) will make your work much easier. I recommend you starting with the World Machine to get the nice height map. The free version allows you to export max. 513x513px maps but you… -

Re: What are the drawbacks of grouped draw calls?
Some bad parts of combining assets: * Less freedom of reuse. It makes the asset more specific and less re-usable. * Usually takes more time to make, requires rebaking from source assets each time it needs to change. Imagine you baked an entire house into a single giant draw call and saw a problem with a trash can. You make…
