    Been slowly working on my map, not had much time with moving and looking for a job, hoping to have it completely finished and baked before the Unearthly Challenge

    nice, my only off the cuff complaint is the texture transistion on the floor in the second shot makes it look like there's some kind of lighting anomaly, I guess one texture is significantly brighter than the other.

    vivi how expensive/easy was it to replace the gate with an octo one?

    It arrived today

    Man I'm actually better with the controller than I am with the stick right now. I have to get used to being able to use all 6 buttons easily. It's much easier to change styles on a dime where as before with the console controller i'd kind of have to position my hands and pick my play style before the battle.

    The worst thing about this contorller is that now I dont have anything to blame when I mess up

    This is becoming an expensive habit.

    Who are your guys mains?

    I use chun significantly more than any other character but am try to get better with Akuma, Sakura, C.Viper (she's pretty much impossible to use without a stick with all her focus reliance), & Rufus.

    Congrats on the fight stick! I got the collectors edition awhile back but hated the 4 gate. I ordered a 8 gate and had it replaced ^^ now i feel much better lolI play on Xbox Live

    XBL : General Vivi

    Challenge meh!

    I'm on PSN

    I guess there's about no chance the fightstick is compatible on both eh?

    Just bought the 50$ fightstick last week, for the money it's well worth it. Also since it's USB I can use it on my PC which really makes it worth it.

    That said, it still wasnt exactly what I wanted, my biggest issue was it was a little small when I'm trying to pull QCF and jab, my hands tend to get in the way of each other. Anyways I ordered the madcatz champion edition with the sanwa parts. Every day I check the mail like a kid waiting for Christmas

    My regards on round 1 of the balrog fight Vivi Do you play on PSN or XBL?

    Yeah, this thread is definitely more geared towards "Games YOU think are underrated", but I guess that easily becomes "Your favorite game that no one likes quite as much as you"

    Just for the record, words such as discorce, thesis should be well and truly banned from game development, unless you're at school trying to impress somebody. Formal design documents have there place, but often most people don't read or understand them, a good lead designer communicates through many other means not just paper

    oh thank god

    Justin got a little too cocky there, he kept getting up for the applause while Daigo just kind of sat there quietly waiting for the next match.

    That SF3 finish is still the most epic win I've seen in SF to date.

    well I had to update a lot of props on my other FAS map. A week or so ago I posted an update of the new area here :

    viewtopic.php?f=57&t=1552&st=0&sk=t&sd=a&start=7170#p240420

    Anyways here is the same shot from before with all the CSS assets removed and replaced by custom stuff I did. As you can see I mostly added detail in the higher areas and the street is still pretty barren, I guess the next step is to make some trash and debris composites. Also need to fix the shadows on those balconies, I'm surprised they actually turned out that well tbh.
