Take it easy on the sharpen filter dux I'd also remove the highlights since they should be done via normal/specular maps. Nice progress anyways!

Nice characters kokos, I just think the guy's left arm looks very awkward.

Nice style, how did you manage to achieve that crayon look?

I never had any problems with baking AO maps in 3dsmax myself... just place an skylight, pick your object, go to render to texture dialog, set padding to 2 (so you don't get black lines on the output), choose "use existing channel" instead of "automatic mapping" and then render a "completemap". Also, make sure to apply a pure white material to your object before baking the texture, so you don't get a dark output.

Awesome, no crits here Would you mind posting the flats klein?

Looks very interesting to be honest.

Alright I've just played this for a good hour and I must say I absolutely love it! I loved the maps, they look great. Too bad I always get lost in pvk_fort, but that's a matter of time until I learn the layout I believe.

Congrats PVKII team, this mod is really polished

There's something very fishy going on here but I have no idea what's causing this... any thoughts? (and yeah I did build the cubemaps...)

I love the interior lighting, keep up the good work skdr

ahh nice stuff Skjalg, I'll make sure to download it this time

I was never really into the hitman series but I decided to give Blood Money a try and it's pretty cool

I'm also getting Gears of War very soon (I got a new pc yay).

Nice to see you finally finishing this little baby

Lighting could use some work in my opinion, as it looks very 2004'ish at the moment (no HDR, color correction etc). I also noticed there are no cubemaps at all which make some areas look weird Last but not least, this can't be a Mazy map without lots of pringles ;o How about some pringles crates? (just pick a stock model and modify the texture a bit )

Saw the trailer, looks interseting

Let me guess where you are getting inspiration from for this... ubisoft montreal?

Size doesn't really matter and in fact larger tablets will get you tired rather quickly, besides taking up too much desk space if that's a problem for you. I'd say go for the A5 one, I got a A6 graphire and I love it, although it's super tiny.

The voting was closed before zombie panic was released as far as I'm concerned.

Quote from Thrik

I personally see pirating as something reasonable when you're in school/college as games are relatively expensive, but once you're out of your teens and have a job it's time to grow up and start paying for your shit, regardless of whether or not it might be a bit crap. Almost all games have demos, including Crysis, so there's no excuse for not getting the demo and seeing how it runs/plays/etc.Anyone who's past their teens and still pirates games needs to grow the fuck up IMO. Try the demos and/or read reviews before buying -- it's not hard, and it's how consumers of most other industries buy stuff. For example if you're buying a kettle and want to know how fast it boils and such, just ask the shop for a demo and read some reviews (online, kitchen magazines, etc) about it.

I totally agree with Thrik. I don't buy games because I'm lazy or anything, it's just that I can't buy them. I have stressed it several times but games are rather expensive here... won't get into this shit again but I'll use an example instead:

Playstation 2 games used to cost from 200 to 300 bucks back in 2003. In 2006 they cost between 99 and 200. And now they cost around 49 bucks, which is definitely a good price. But now they are old games with old tech, not appealing at all. And then they wonder why people pirate games... (an xbox 360 game costs around 250 - 300 at the moment, while the console costs 2000). Of course that's brazilian currency, but it's a 2:1 ratio for USD.

I plan on buying my own games as soon as I get a decent job and if they have good prices.

That looks totally awesome
