Re: A batch of questions involving rigging, meshes, and Unity.
Have you looked at the animation help files in Unity yet? They cover the basics pretty well, it kind of sounds like maybe you haven't read any of these yet. That's the first place I'd recommend checking out. If they deform, it helps to bind them to the same skeleton as the skin, so you can fix/avoid interpenetrations. But… -
Re: Questions about xnormal cages, exploded bakes, and Maya
My general workflow with Maya is this: - Use Transfer Maps tool with good envelopes for my normal map bake. I just always seem to get better results with Maya, and I always try to eliminate as many import-export processes with baked normals as possible. Less chance of tangent basis issues, even if the apps are supposed to… -
Re: portfolio v2.0 crits please
I'd get rid of the pop-up script when the viewer clicks an image and instead just go to a page with a larger version of the image. This will enable you to use much larger images; you've worked hard, so why not show off? I'd streamline the main page to 4 images, each the size of your current banner - one for personal… -
Re: My web site is finally live *DELETED*
If I had to guess, he's not reading this anymore :-P or at least not gonna post. However, in the case you are still reading James, I gotta say a couple things. A) If you plan to eventually work in the games industry, you are going to need to have the ability to take feedback, and critiques. Honestly, Chris' post was not… -
Re: Are games worth $60?
No more than a major motion picture. And a lot of people in that industry say that it's impossible not to make your money back over time with DVD and tv rights. Games have decided to price themselves way above what they should cost, and that excludes a lot of people who would have bought them at a lower price point. I… -
Re: Akira Bike for UT3 - WiP
Major Update: I think I've nearly finished with this, my final presentation on this is in the morning. Overall I've managed to fix most of the problems I encountered such as the material problems. The fix was achieved by both condensing all of my materials and mat ids into 2. In the code I then setup an array in the same… -
Re: Angry Nintendo Nerd
sorry, gonna have to thumbs down on the angry nerd. he's a nerd alright, but he's not particularly angry, mostly just annoyed; he has a horribly slow and uninflected speaking voice, and he's also what Freud would consider anally fixated. i like how he had to save it all up for the painfully rehearsed "rant" at the end.… -
Re: Directory Structure for game project?
we had this discussion recently at work because we had for years a bloated system in place for everyone to work with. The bad thing we had were to many pre defined folders that were not really used, so the new one had the following unique details:* short folder names, more close to back end dev conventions (3-4 chars if… -
Re: FX Networks presents: OILSTORM
It isn't that easy. Not everyone can afford to live near work. Northern California is a good example. The Bay Area is where all the work is. And because of this cost of living has gone up considerable throughout the years. Half the people who live in the bay area are only there because they've lived there before the huge… -
