Dragon Age Lead Writer Patrick Weekes "origin story" podcast interview
http://www.nerdappropriate.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/Rated-NA-75.mp3 Interview portion begins 6:58 mark. Inspiring to hear especially (for me) the part where he's about to be a parent, he was hesitant to start a different career in gamedev (from copywriting and high school tutoring) in a different country, but his… -
CAT Rig: Crashing while Skinning
Ello ello, Has anyone ever used CAT and just as you're editing the vertices while skinning, the program crashes every time? I know CAT has a reputation for being... special... but, previous to this, I've never had an issue and I've spent considerable time sizing it to my character.

[HELP!] Normal Map showing hairline cracks
Hi all, I've trawled the internets and the "how to normal map" in this forum and outside, and I still can't figure out why my normal map is baking with hairline cracks in it.

[Unity] - Apartment Environment
By rrxiii at 2012-07-27 This is going to be the main hub for an educational game that a friend and I are working on. But it's basically my first finished environment, and I know it could be better, but lack the experience to identify areas that can be improved. It's supposed to be clean, but I can't help feeling that some… -

Beginner's Portfolio
I've been around 3D for a while now and decided to make a work-in-progress portfolio to showcase how my learning has been going. They're all highpoly models, since I haven't properly gotten into lowpoly and texturing simply because there wasn't enough time over the last few years to really dedicate myself to learning 3ds… -
