Hey everyone, Some guys that I help with their game every now and then asked me for an inventory screen, and I've decided to make a Starter Kit off it instead, as I know this kind of Inventory feature is a recurrent question and would be a nice addition for the community. And it's now finished and ready for download!…
Hey guys! Time to try something new! We're rolling out the new build in about a week, but since you are so active in the forums I wanted to give you some early access. A few surprise features are still to come -- this preview will however introduce a number of significant improvements: * MASSIVE speed improvements * Much…
I'd first go and check if the Ryzen platform is now mature or if it's still misbehaving and crashing and doing weird stuff in idle like a few weeks ago when it was released? From what I've read there's a risk you might be in for a PC modder experience at this point: trying a new firmware, Bios setting or driver version…
Layered materials are actually just material functions, which are blended with other material functions, and by doing that (combining them) you create a new material. Actually, you don't need to set up different materials ids (you can, but its not necessary for the material layers to work). I usually do this when working…
1. Formulate a high level concept of the game, this is essentially a presentation that defines the game to anyone who is interested, its essentially a pitch. But its also used to keep everyone focused on the same game. 2. Begin to get all your development pipeline in order, what engine? what source control? build process?…
I use 2008, so i hope this is still relevant... or actually not, hopefully this stuff is already fixed ;) . -Overall the program is just bloated by functionality that isn't really necessary, or doesn't feel relevent to what you're doing at the time. There are plenty of buttons that if i think hard i could kinda see how it…
If you're writing a paper, some original research rather than opinions would be a good idea. These are the kinds of things I'd look for: * Who was/were the lead(s)? What gender and race did they have? * Who are the support cast? What genders and races do they have? Of the characters of non-normative gender: (i.e. women in…
I'm not a 3D artist and would say I have little experience with the technical side of a 3D character workflow, but I have a few questions/critiques related to this. Hopefully I've been hanging around here long enough to make sense. I feel like his overall body shape/design turned out feeling quite a bit different from your…
Cole hit the nail on the head, but I think its important to give a practical example as well. Go into your kitchen, and look under your fridge. Its dark under there, right? This is because the light source is occluded. Now, go grab a flash light and shine it under the fridge. The previously occluded area is now illuminated…
For the most part I think Stefan is right, the numbers really do speak the loudest to the people at the top. I think the majority do care about what kind of product they produce, its just as much a reputation issue as it is a financial incentive but that doesn't mean that all ideas get in or are compatible with mitigating…
