I had the same feeling while playing gow, the whole world seemed to be made of stone and metal. There aren't too many things that indicate that people have been living there, prop wise.

Hourences:

I've been reading your making of krodan article and came across this text passage:

Quote

The rocks were unwrapped in such way that most of their UV seams are in the vertex painted areas. A planar UV map on Z was then added using UV channel 2 to cover up the seams. The idea was to use channel 1 for the rock texture, and channel 2 for the sand texture. Because the sand texture is on top of the rock texture, and because it uses a different UV lay out, it would be hiding the seams of channel 1 below.

I don't quite get this, are the seams to be placed in the same position you would have to, when blending 3 textures by mat id's? It would be nice if you could post a picture, explaining the situation.

Good job!

That little making of was an intresting insight.

Can you show us more of your QW stuff?

Clever techniques there, Peris and Whoot. Will come in handy sooner or later.

Hahahahaha that made my day.

Been waiting to be able to order your book, I'm sure it will be helpful to me.

Nice tutorials aswel, coming from another engine they help to adapt the different workflow.

I hope you keep going with your engagement to the community.

Eeek another Dio fan here, didn't expect that. \m/

Quote from Sentura

Fun coincidence here, Rainbow ( one of my fav bands) has been founded by Ritchie Blackmore, who now runs "blackmore's night".

Been listening to those for most of my time.

And quite a bit of Indie recently.

You really nailed that feeling of a big mansion with very wealthy occupants. Escpecially the entrance hall reflects that well, since you don't expect such a big hall as a player, seeing the house from the outside.

A friend send me that link today: (german)

It's not a review but I was quite suprised about the positive things they say about Crysis and the "killer games debate". Usually ZDF are the first to say games are bad.

It's good to know that some of the news are getting more objective slowly.

What's your problem with distance? Are you having problems, getting a sketch from paper to 3d?

Maybe you should take a look at hourence's book. Topics like that are covered in it multiple times.

That looked quite impressive and hillarious:D

Looking at the windows again made me notice that they are not centered between the columns. Could be intendet though.

Just finished it in approx. 7 hours. I really have to say that this was by far one of the best singleplayer experiences I had. There's always something going on, loads of variation, lots of immerson and really outstanding animation.

Played on hardened and it was quite challenging, I never died that often in a singleplayer game.

So yeah, where's the editor?!
