Re: Am I doing something wrong? Others with little skill who have jobs in the industry
Sometime it's just your location, the timing, who you know. It can be a lot of factors. Some city have more opportunity for juniors, others don't. I'm gonna make an example from what I've seen personally. let's say a big game studio in montreal wants to hire 40 modeler. Of course they want 40 very good modeler. But you… -
Re: You know why Max is -fucking- awesome?
Whoa there killer. I think you miss the point entirely. This thread was originally about the pains people receive from using Max. From my experience, Max has many features that do not work as they're intended, or give erroneous results. You've made no mention of tools in XSI that do not work as intended, or give bad… -
Re: all a guy ever wanted, was a shot back in theBUIZZ
3 years or 3 titles actually is HR short hand for; "We don't want to train you, so on top of being a good artist, you'll need to know how to work under deadlines and with restrictions". I know it can seem like the man is trying to keep you down. But really it's your portfolio and what it contains that keeps you out, even… -

Re: Game industry - my goal

Re: Halo Reach
Not a fan so far so I'll get the bad points out of the way... 1) The motion blur, its TURRIBAL. In fact often the view weapon looks more like its being rendered at 5 frames a second than the smooth 30 they said it should. Most of the time I find it hard on my eyes, very over done. 2) The perks system. Maybe its just me,… -
Re: UTMC - MidTech - Drain / Vent
Time to update. As I ponder over the idea of filling the lower area with water I did a really quick and dirty attempt of exploring this idea. Are you ready for another huge fork in the road in terms of theme direction and design? After thinking about the drain I started messing around in Sketchup for a while and made a… -

Re: 4 weeks game project
Now, the amount of time we dedicated to these vehicles to be modeled and uved was one and a half weeks. We kinda managed in time more or less but because we had some problems after two weeks (which I will bring up later) we decided to cut two models from the final game. Therefor at this moment, the game is supposed to have… -
Re: The Influence of Art Direction
Hey guy, This was an interesting read. However I feel the content is missing clear examples of what you're trying to communicate to the reader. Simply stating that game design and art direction need to work together doesn't really provide a solid platform from which stimulating conversations can be launched. Reality is:…
