But still twice the battery time of the PSP probably :D I thought you said Nintendo would never upgrade the processor. Now you're telling me they did it in the last two years? :poly142: The DSi was released very late in the products life-time... that's probably why the updates were unused. Games studios already had an…
The field-of-view is very different between the two pictures. UDK defaults to 90 degrees, which is roughly equivalent to a very wide angle 10mm lens. More typical values would be between 48 degrees for a 28mm lens and 28 degrees for a 50mm lens. This site, http://www.abelcine.com/fov/, lets you see the different camera…
Been doing some zbrushery lately, since I finally pulled enough money out of my ass to afford the student license as a gift to myself. Anywho, to start, here's some random alien body I was working on, just built it out of zspheres/sketching to get used to that. I'm sure you'll agree the feet are retarded as hell. And…
Yeah - it does seem kinda expensive, but think about it this way: Right now, if you want to create real-time shaders in Max, you need to learn to program in HLSL. How long would that take? 6 months? A year? Let's say you were really dedicated and you had 8 hours per day and it only took you two months to learn HLSL. If you…
Hey guys, Well, I decided to participate in this year's global game jam, an activity to make a game in 48 hours. First night was game design night in which i didnt create any assets. THe next morning everything begun. I started out with some concept art, and then moved on to making these in 3D. Ingame look and feel concept…
Rich "Rooster" Edwards has been busy putting the finishing touches on his latest game, PINEAPPLE SMASH CREW! Take your crew of grenade wielding fighters through randomly generated ships levels where you'll fight off a variety of enemies. You'll need to use all of the weapons in your arsenal to figure out how best to take…
I'd offer the counter-advice (but assuming you don't have loans to pay or mouths to feed :poly136: ) Call this game studio back asap, explain you have an offer (don't say where) but still would like to work as QA. And ask if they can let you know in 48 hours if they still want you. I mean, you got nothing to lose in…
If your budgets this tight, I'd recommend deleting the sides of your wheels and replacing them with a single quad each with an alpha channel. You might need to make the wheel texture a little larger on your UV, but you'll be saving yourself 48 tris. You could make those UV islands much larger. You're wasting a lot of…
Wow! Thanks for the nice comments :) I have to admit it isn't my first attempt on handpainting something. But I do think it is my best result so far. However when looking at it myself, I think it lacks some bigger forms and is a bit too noisy here and there. I read the handpainted texture tutorial in 'Vertex', found on…
[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] yeah the whole of england buddy... there's a insane network of CCTV cameras everywhere, from the largest city to the smallest town, no where is unrecorded. And I'm not joking (as other UKers can attest) [/ QUOTE ] On my recent honeymoon trip to London, the tour guide on a bus tour we took talked about…
