It doesn't look horrible, it looks like a stone wall. There is something a little off about it though. They all seem to have a uniform minimum distance between each stone, and some would sink into the mortar and probably come to rest directly on other stones? These look more like stones you would use on the ground not…
A little birdy told me where to find an express version of some good backup software that can automate a backup to another drive (like a USB or Firewire drive) so in case this happens you can at least take the drive somewhere else and quickly access your files. If you are reading this and you don't have a current backup of…
i used to work for a govt contractor, and grew up in a very gov't savy household... this statement has tons of truth; "The biggest thing I point out to people, is the overestimation of thier cunning." That was particularly true of the cold-war era...still is true now. Though there ARE a lot of little conspiracies going on…
Just to start off, here's couple of my wip projects: Here's the concept for the Dungeon Corridor: http://cloister.deviantart.com/art/Dungeon-level-2-level-concept-A-Main-Corridor-281266756?q=gallery%3Aconceptworld%2F25712843&qo=191
It might be, but if someone were to make a Grim Fandango-esque game in 2015 using 1998 texture limitations, I think asking them about that would be fairly legitimate. Think of it like this perhaps: if someone were to make a game looking like Doom or Quake, nobody would have a problem with the low amount of polygons; that's…
I realise your field of study isn't mine, but a topic as 'depiction of minorities in video games' would be of a completely unacceptable scale for a mere paper where I'm from; it requires a book, at least, and years of study. I don't mean to be dismissive of the area in general, but game designers underestimate the outputs…
hey i'm just callin it like i see it. if this was 1998 and we were weighing out the benefits of a PC vs a mac for price then perhaps i would side towards the mac, since the powerpc platform was legit fantastic, but macs these days are simply PC hardware with a fancy OS on it. the hardware is the same stuff that every other…
BTC has not been on an "incline" over two years, it was in an incline for 2 months in 2013 when it suddenly spiked in value as a result of widespread media coverage. It's been in a clear downward trend ever since. You can't base future value on a bubble that is long past... Just like you wouldn't buy a house in the US…
I thought the movie was shit. The beginning scene of the ape busting through the window during the meeting certainly set a tone for this film. Hollow, cookie cutter characters I cared nothing about(the only character that had any depth was John Lithgow's). Too much CGI drawing too much attention to itself pulled me out of…
