New Book/Job site/Tutorials

[JamesL]

Great stuff mate. I don't know where you find the time to do this and hold down a job!

[Hourences]

Actually, I don't have a fulltime job atm actually, I'm preparing for a new job in February.

Occasional Huxley tasks aside, I have all the time of the world:)

So, step 2:

-New tutorials.

http://www.hourences.com/book/tutorialsue3modeling1.htm

http://www.hourences.com/book/tutorialsue3modeling2.htm

http://www.hourences.com/book/tutorialsue3sound.htm

One tutorial on how to set up environment sounds, and two tutorials on modeling for UE3. How to set up a model, how to import it, how to add collision, how to batch export it, common problems, common questions, and advanced tips on how to optimize your models. The advanced tips are prolly also useful for other engines.

-Released example extracts of my new book.

some very interesting stuff there H.

is your book available as a PDF btw? I didn't think it'd interest me but that little segment had me enthralled!

[Hourences]

Yeah, there will be a PDF for around 10 pound or so. Glad you like the extract.

[Erratic]

Cool stuff, no doubt some useful resources.

[Rick_D]

ordered ;D

[Hourences]

Which one?

As the industry book is not out yet.

[Rick_D]

Yeah I noticed, I was like 'where the hell is the d/l link?!' then I actually read it and I was like damn, I'll have to wait.

ordered the industry one on PDF, btw

[Hourences]

If Rick_U etc is your email, you ordered the level design one actually, which is already available for download. I dont support preordering...

If you really intended to buy the industry one instead of the level design one, Im sure I can get you that instead of the level design one.

[Rick_D]

ahhh shit, this is confusing:

It'd be nice if there was an order button for each book instead of one for both (confuses people who click too quickly like me :x).

I'll probably end up buying your level design book anyway so don't worry abotu changing it; I'll just buy the PDF when the 2nd book comes out. My mistakes = more money for you

[-HP-]

Great tuts Hourences, you are saving me alot of time with this.

Looking forward to you'r next book!
