The materials/textureing looks really good though. The lighting is cool, kinda like a good rpg videogame, what sort of lighting are you aiming for? why…
If you look at Dominance War & Unearthly Challenge and compare them to the contests Polycount has held and how we've created & maintained them you'll see why it made sense for us to go off and do our own thing. Fred and the folks at GameArtisans are good people doing great things for this videogame community of ours. If…
sounds good! but I do think it's healthyer for kids to go play outside up to a certain age, or at least not play more than so and so many hours a day or something.

I can't tell you how everyone is fairing but I can say it's not bad all around at least.…
Always been a PC gamer at heart, but, man. The community is just starting to piss me off :P Everyone is a videogame expert. Sometimes I just want to play a game with someone who goes "hey that was an awesome thing happening in the game" instead of a jaded analysis of the same thing. I found the former more often when I…

Hello to everyone! Recently I have put online my portfolio website covin3d.com for the future sake of finding a job in the videogame industry. I tried to make the site more user-friendly as possible, easy to read and see, but hey!, before this I haven't created a website in my entire life and I want some crit / tips for…
http://uproar-interactive.com/tools.html Since the TGA Thumbplug reportedly doesn't work under Vista and I hadn't yet seen one for dds, this should prove to be great. I haven't tried it yet, but it supports: * Direct Draw Surfaces (DDS) * X PixMap (XPM) * Targa (TGA) * Photoshop (PSD) I haven't the faintest what XPM's are…
