Re: game art college graduate success rate....
In addition to what has already been said, it's simply supply and demand. There are only so many jobs and they go to the higher skilled people. Students are getting churned out faster than jobs are getting produced. A friend sent me this and even tho it's VFX related it's still applicable to games. It's a kinda depressing… -
Re: What's up at Infinity Ward...?
This article explains the deal with the no royalties payed. http://www.joystiq.com/2010/03/02/infinity-ward-modern-warfare-2-royalties-analysis/#continued Hope the best for ousted dudes. Sounds like a bummer to lose control of the ship you helped sail after 9 years. You know...unless he was using Activision's money to run… -

Re: The Bachelor and the Artist
Or... You can sign up to fight for America and get your citizenship in as little as 6 months. And presuming you survive by dodging mortar rounds for a couple of years in Afghanistan, applying at Blizzard/id/valve should be a piece of cake when you get back "home". :thumbup:… -
Re: Modo 201 is OUT

Re: Sand crap over my 3dsmax AO bake
I've seen this issue before on my own stuff. Trying to remember what I did to fix it. mental ray seems to have problems when your low poly and high poly are perfectly coplanar and overlapping, regardless of cage, so maybe try dropping something like a Push modifier, slide it underneath your Projection modifier, and set it… -

Re: Persona 5
So apparently there is a big livestream happening this week. http://www.playstationlifestyle.net/2015/02/01/atlus-persona-stream-schedule/ There are 3 "mystery" positions on the schedule, so I expect them to be new announcements. One of them will most likely be P5 related and I really hope that we finally get to see some… -
Re: The surprising truth about what motivates us
