Re: Blizzard North is shut down.
Wierd news didn't see that coming... about relocation. I had a chance to move from Seattle to Dallas. When the company I was at started to close down the hub in Seattle. I even flew down to set things up at the new hub and train the new hires but wasn't going to move. Mostly for the same reasons Verm mentioned. Also I… -
Re: Baking Cylinder black Artifacts - Help
Hi! This thread might be of interest: https://polycount.com/discussion/81154/understanding-averaged-normals-and-ray-projection-who-put-waviness-in-my-normal-map/p1 (match the shape of the highpoly more closely). Also make sure you split UVs at hard edges (A) and leave enough space between UV shells (B). Both the outer and… -
Re: What is important?
Yeah I couldn't disagree more. I dont think there is any correlation that can be made between quality and financial/critical success. I am sure artistic integrity won't harm a games ability to sell but it will certainly explode the production cost, while there is absolutely no indication it has more of an impact than any… -
Re: Nvidia 1080 GTX or Radeon Vega 64 for 3D Work
1080 over Vega all day. The 1070 Ti is a good choice too, about as powerful as the 1080 but can sometimes be found for $100-150 or so less. I just did a 8700k/32GB/1070 Ti build here and it's awesome. New Nvidia 1180/2080 or whatever it is called should be announced this summer but unlikely to be available until fall, so… -
Re: has anyone done some realtime visualization project before?
Here's the thing about doing real time viz work. Can you complete the task in 2 days and have the ability to make changes at the 11th hour? If you can't then avoid even trying to pitch this idea to architects. Most of the time, work for architects means your are in bid, SD or DD phases which during that time the project… -

Re: Need Advice
hmm I turned down a couple of interviews recently and I didn't even think about if we were still "cool". My parents aren't fit for working full time, they can't speak or understand English fluently and someone has to stay around to pay the rest of the mortgage until we sell this house :/ And I also have to be here to sell… -
Re: What do you do when people you know pirate games?
It's a damn shame that piracy had such a negative impact on Iron Lore. There are probably many other developers hurt by piracy as well. Lamont I really hope you can get Titan Quest working it's a fun game. I've got it working on XP32bit/Steam no problems, haven't tried Vista yet though... I really love Steam and wish more… -
Dynamic Character Project: Male Human
Greetings all: time for the dreaded first post. ;P Just a quick background: I hail primarily from the GameDev.net forums, after having recently taken interest in solidifying my rather sketchy modeling, rigging, and animation skills. I consider myself well rounded in many game-dev-related talents (including various aspects… -
