i'd calm those lens flares just a tiny bit and put a slight hint of blue in the lights - especially on the flares. I'd also make sure the flares are matching the shape of the lights properly, right now they aren't lining up all the way with the mesh (some positioning and widening the texture could help). lower the intensity of the white in your rain particles, its a bit too much and looks like brush strokes. Also, trims man. trims where the hull meets the ground. i see no gloss on your tank. Maybe it's not what you're going for, but that big puddle on the ground screams that the tank would have some gloss on it too, even if it's covered, it just doesn't go well together.your asphalt is also scaled quiet large, the texel density makes your vehicle look smaller than it should be. more props around and all those other tid bits i'm sure you're aware of

Environment probes are the tits. I did a lighting tutorial for nexuiz, but the engine has changed greatly. just be really careful with the lights. theyre way more optimized these days, but they can still quickly spin out of control. i touch a lot of features in this, some are obsolete:

Some of you know about this already: http://shogungamer.com/news/16107/revival We put out the first announcement of a Sandbox MMORPG we're working on called Revival - with my favorite gaming news site, Shogun Gamer. There's lots of stuff to be said about this game -> to put it blunt, its insanely ambitious. All's going pretty cool so far! Since this is mapcore, it makes sense to state a few things: These pictures are from a prototype that is still WIP - to help me get from A to B quickly, i used textures from GameTextures, definitely did use nDo2 and dDO in places. We used Speed Tree for temporary trees, I outsourced character models, and everything else was built by a skeleton crew internally to help me prototype this. Anyways, will post more information soon.

Jumpgate got foxed in the whole codemasters/netdevil/gazillion debacle. i was on it for a bit, but dont worry... it wasn't that great. star citizen looks suuuuper awesome.

cool stuff, too childish for me though

but i never did get into final fantasy 9 i tried starting it twice, but it i didn't click. i'll have to give it another shot soon.

i wont lie. i liked final fantasy 8 more than final fantasy 7. the story was better in 7, sure, but the gameplay/feel/and pacing in 8 was better.

I love FF8

7 is on steam http://store.steampowered.com/app/39140/ once 8 comes out, i'll replay through it. i played through 7 last year. i have the ff8 pc disks somewhere but its just not the same. Emulators have a rough time with the videos. also, anyone in the ff14 beta??? it's a lot better, even if they did bite a lot of WoW.

for a second i thought you turned into a robot

Super awesome track record you got there

Anyone know anything about this? http://store.steampowered.com/app/225360/

old photos but whatevs, i need a better picture of my living room setup its nice now but i need a good tv I do most of my gaming in bed though... got a nice 46" samsung at the base of my bed:

god damn thrik, baller!

I just 100% beat: I am now playing: About to beat on 3DS: on PC i am playing:

Sorry i didn't even try to meet up with anyone this time was crazy busy... most busiest and successful E3 for us yet. I did meet up with HP though, we made out for a few minutes.

I'm hiring soon in all areas, if you can pass my info along to those that may be interested in the states

we had 2 forms of data collecting in Nexuiz, one was a heatmap generator that wasn't a heatmap per say, but it actually put actors in the level on an invisible layer that showed where a person killed someone/someone died - as well as a line showing their line of sight (blue for attacker, red for dead guy with a blue line between). we also had the insane amount of stats pushed after every single match for nexuiz too (i think we push over 250 every match?). the problem we ran into (and won't be something that is fixable because it'd require an entire rewrite) is the server queries... it messed up our database load pretty damn bad. Another problem we had was, even though the data is super awesome to look at, we just didn't have the people to really process it and implement it - towards the end of Nexuiz i was the only designer on the project and just didn't have the time to focus on that information. Well polished tools like this are super awesome. I've been eyeballing RAD's telemetry collection tool as well - but heatmaps, to me, only go so far. You can't tell gameplay 100% from a top down view - especially in an FPS.

i was just referencing this as a quality bar yesterday. Good job

Isn't the only reason for the Sony headset being so much better that they used more expensive technology? Or are there any design decisions that makes the Sony headset inherently better? What I'm basically interpreting from your post is that someone other than Oculus will offer a similar priced product, but that is vastly superior for some reason. I haven't tried either yet and I'm not really familiar with VR or the difference between the headsets (other than resolution/performance etc.). I think its mostly a matter of supply+demand and analyzing the market. Sony probably marked theres up so high because of limited production and there isn't any footing in the market so they can really make whatever price they want. if they gauge major consumer interest at the price point oculus rift is trying to offer, i'm sure they could get something of done of better quality. i really cannot stand the fish eye lenses. They make me really sick. There needs to be actual peripheral monitors made within the headset, no faked through a shader....

yeah they nailed venice beach in this, they modeled those racket ball courts exactly how they are too haha

hate being the guy who always brings this up every time the oculus rift used, but to be honest i'm jaded. I have the rift sitting in my room collecting dust atm, because this thing just blows it out of the water. I tried it at GDC... sure its not as cheap and 'consumer grade' as the rift is, especially with the Sony headset, but it's just proof that someone's going to come around and probably bury oculus rift pretty hard. Sony's current headset, with a yei adapter (all together about $1,000), is sooooo much better than a oculus rift. None of this fiddling with distorted views, looks way better, feels way better, doesn't induce sickness after a few seconds and way more... I think the oculus rift is neat, but i've been following stereo 3d, VR, as well as doing some projects with extremely high profile clients regarding VR and... to be frank... all the oculus rift is doing is sparking public interest for a giant to come in and perfect it.... which isn't a bad thing at all.

i'd get rid of that long walkway on the outskirts of A, long stretches like that of "walk forever" aren't really that fun. You may want to just have a bit of one but then cut it into the area sooner.
