  • PONE makes textures because of Jesus

    Yeah to make textures tile I use the same method as Blackdog mentioned above. Offset the image so you can see the seam then remove the seam using clone stamp and such. I also found the result to be blurry sometimes.


    I suck at texturing though. Hopefully someone comes in and drops their awesome knowledge on the best way to make things tile nicely for you!

    Xbox One self-publishing plans revealed

    Full access to Xbox One services; no fees for game updates; MS will set price for titles


    All developers accepted for the scheme will receive two Xbox One development kits free of charge, as well as access to the full range of services on offer to games development teams - cloud services, Kinect and the Xbox One toolset, which includes Smartglass, multiplayer, Achievements and Gamerscores.

    In order to help with the discoverability issues that trouble all self-publishing stores, Microsoft is promising that all games will feature in the regular Xbox One store and be supported by voice search.

    On top of that the store will also feature trending games reflecting what the community and friends are playing, recommendations based on a consumer's playing habits, spotlighted games and the ability for developers to set community challenges, as well as support the Xbox One's Game DVR and Upload services.

  • Origin return policy...wait, what?

    Definitely open to exploitation. Also do you get a full refund to your card or store credit?


    What if I buy a boxed product, activate it on Origin then claim a refund? I'm guessing that wouldn't work.


    I'd never buy anything on Origin anyway, prices are way too inflated. Though, a lot of PC games are reaching the console level of pricing these days. Even on Steam. (X: Rebirth, Europa; Universals IV, Saints Row IV to name a few.)

    RIPIP GFWL

    Rest In Peace... In Piss? xD


    But yeah, a legitimate concern is how will those games that use it work? I still play GTA IV online with friends every so often!


    Still, never liked the service, it's always caused more problems than not!

    That's actually what working with him is like. Add to that spinning on his head whilst simultaneous solving usability issues and you've got Robb.

    Heard about this this morning from a work colleague. Very bad move if true, Sony.

  • What have you watched recently?

    I caught up on the last few episodes of Under The Dome the past few days. Shit is getting weird. So much dumb stuff happens which doesn't need to though.

    Like the big truck destroying the water tower. Why the fuck was someone driving a big truck round in the first place. What does he need to transport when trapped inside a huge bloody dome?

    UPDATE: Nvidia's European PR manager Ben Berraondo has issued Eurogamer with the following statement - it appears mentioning GTA5 was an error.

    • "Please note, during our Thursday's earnings call, our investor relations team provided a list of important games that gamers are looking forward to on PC this fall, and included Grand Theft Auto 5 on that list.
    • "This statement was made with the intent of expressing enthusiasm for the games industry in general, and was not intended to represent specific knowledge possessed by Nvidia. Nvidia does not have information on any possible PC version release of Grand Theft Auto or its availability. We deeply regret the error."


    Knew it was too good to be true, just marketing/PR making a mistake. Still hoping for a PC version though!

    Another U-turn

    http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2013-…nect-plugged-in


    Quote

    For a long time Microsoft insisted that its creepy HAL-like motion sensing camera Kinectwould have to be on for the Xbox One to function, but in Microsoft's rapid plea to make players happy it's now announced that you'll be able to play Xbox One not only with the sensor off, but not even plugged in.

    Xbox One chief product officer Marc Whitten revealed this new option in an interview withIGN. "Like online, the console will still function if Kinect isn't plugged in, although you won't be able to use any feature or experience that explicitly uses the sensor," he said.

    Yeah, I didn't expect Walt and Hank to be sizing each other up so soon! It seems they've got everything set up well for the rest of the season.


    God damn why do I have to wait another week for each episodes.

    • August 9, 2013 at 2:08 PM

    Yeah less (or at least a customisable UI) is always preferred by myself. I love Dead Space's because the health and power levels are integrated into the suit. Whilst any menu's and oxygen levels pop out on a holographic screen so I only see them when I need/want to see them.


    I'd love to do a bit of UI design if I was better at 2D stuff. Sadly I suck at it xD

    Just had this link sent around work which is basically the imdb of UI's.


    http://www.noteloop.com/kit/fui/


    You can search by films, tv, designer and companies etc.


    Anyway, what are some of your favourite UI's?


    I loved me some Dead Space:

    Isn't that special power button the same as the original Playstation 3 power button but with a light behind it?
