Re: Sketchbook: Dimat
This is a Wii Retail project that unfortunately was a cancelled. We were making a Nintendo Wii game for Real Arcade, and they shut down their entire games division between 2009 and 2010 so we had to cancel the development of this game after 10 months of work. It was a huge disappointment. It was starting to look and feel… -
Re: PIXEL ART
I created an attack and death sprite of a Scarab Beetle for some game that never got published. Pretty fun stuff. I never new there was a pixel art thread until recently. This makes me extremely happy. It feels good to take a step back from 3D Modeling and create some traditional pixel art. Pretty cool thread. Wish there… -
Re: 3D in games. Do you see faults when you play?
That latest diablo3 monk video also had a shitload of clipping errors... Im just glad even the 'big boys' make mistakes sometimes :) One thing I do often do is kind of the opposite from noticing errors: When I see something well done or a cool shader I try to figure out how they did it (water in bioshock, prince of persia… -
Re: E3 Sony press conference
Yeah, heard about all the shit talks Gabe had on the PS. I guess the fact that Gabe found his big ass standing on a Sony stage was a surprise all in itself. Well, 360 or PS3 or Nintendo 64, doesn't matter really. Portal 2 has been one of my most anticipated game since the moment I finished Portal 1. Might as well play 'em… -
Re: graphics card recommendations?
I kept hearing the date 2012 over and over again for the next generation of consoles, but who knows. The wii HD will probably come out in 2011. The Xbox 360 was officially announced the same year it came out, so its really hard to speculate. I'm sure the 5-6 years is more like 2-5. If you look at past consoles, there's… -
Re: Mac OS now running on P.C.'s
'The mouse didn't need a right-click button until Microsoft added one' The horse cart didn't need a motor before Ford added one. The videogame didn't need a control pad before Nintendo added one. The mouse didn't need a scrollwheel, either but it's much better if it has one. Hell, many 3d apps use three buttons, would you… -
Re: Wii? Looks too much like hard work to me ...
I can't believe you think it looks to much hard work to play though. Did you ever have the original Nintendo? Did running on the track and field mat tire you out too? Or how about duck hunt, that heavy plastic gun too much for you? I think the Wii will be great for some kids that spend too much time playing games to get… -
Re: Confusion with Normal baking issues around edges/borders
Heya, please avoid full quote-replies in order to keep the thread readable. [edit] Thanks. "Though I thought with things like that [...]" Well it's not so much about any hard technical imperative, and more about things being a pain to work with, like having to fuss with a cage in a way too tight space. And also the look… -
closed meshes necessary?
Hi, I need again the Help of our tech crew here on board :) How important is it to build closed meshes for performance? Like the question: "Delete never seen backfaces or keep the mesh (object) without holes" I've heard it's not that important anymore but let's face it for different systems iphone/ipodtouch/ipad nintendo… -
Are there indie studios with a goal of moving to AAA?
So the indie scene has been going on for a while now, especially with the explosion of smartphones and Sony/MS/Nintendo opening their platforms to them. This has me wondering, what is their end goal? I ask this because AAA development itself, has gotten smaller. And the only solution to this, is by growing new studios. The…
