Re: help with low poly mechanical modeling & texturing
I recently tried kitbashing my high poly mesh by using beveled primitives. The downside is that the high poly mesh will have terrible topo. A different way would be to properly make the high using sub-Ds, and the just remove most hard edge loops to drastically reduce tri count. As far as time saving goes, it depends on the… -
Re: rip nintendo?
The plus side of the new Nintendo mandate is they will be opening up development for just about anyone with this generation. Is that gathered from online rumours (and that one vague statement by Kaplan or Iwata, I forgot which) or do you have reliable sources for that? Because so far that seems to be mere speculation.… -
Re: Apple isn't playing nice
Glynn, porting a game isn't that simple. There's a way to get anything into any other language, but it would mean essentially reprogramming it from scratch, which takes time and effort. So no, there isn't a way to get Flash to run on the iPhone, you would have to reprogram your game/app into Objective C. Which would be the… -
Re: Sony: Market Share Is "Not That Important"
[ QUOTE ] To compare? My first GBA had 5 dead pixels. My first DS had 3, and the sylus screen didn't work. [/ QUOTE ] I think this is really just luck of the draw. Dead/stuck pixels (there is a difference) are part and parcel of LCD screens. The PSP has just as much chance of having these as any other device. I've heard of… -
Re: Dead Space
I finished it yesterday what a great game, better than Bioshock in my book at least (which wasnt scary at all unlike DS)! Nice cinematic style, fantastic visuals+sound, story is a bit predictable but still good, and many cool ideas that make it so much fun. Btw, whoever says this game isn`t scary should play it on hard lol… -
Re: "Avatars" are Microsoft's take on Mii's?
I love how carelessly people in a game community repeatedly throw around the word "gimmick" in reference to the Wii controls when it has outsold, and continuous to outsell others. The same term was used before the DS was released. And the WiiFit. All of which have become appealing and useful to those who were not… -
Re: Who's pumped for SSF4?
Lee, though a novel idea, I have to admit the idea of SF4 on the iPhone is insane :D SF4 has such strict timing for inputs and combos, getting consistent execution on a pad or stick isn't easy, let alone a touch screen, hahaha. In all honesty, I would have preferred a DS version, with really stripped down graphics as long… -
Re: Occupy Wall St
This is completely incorrect. SS is solvent til 2040, and would be solvent indefinitely with the payroll cap removed so that people making over 110k a year were paying more. If you want to argue that it won't be around by the time you're retirement age, I won't argue with that cause I see it being attacked by Ds and Rs,… -
Re: (WIP) Medieval-esque Knight
Personally I think the concept can be tweaked a bit more. If you look at the silhouette of your concept and model, it's very blocky with no real defining features. I'm playing Zelda on the DS at the moment and I know I could tell just about every character from their silhouette, because they are stylised, individual and… -
Re: First online portfolio
I don't mind seeing a model of Sonic or Sora as long as YOU put your own creative spin on it. Nitzmoff is right in that seeing a clone of these models just doesn't make much sense. Don't get me wrong...your modeling and texturing is great! You definitely have skills to be an artist for DS/PSP titles. Adding in a few…
