Whatchu Workin' On? Tell us!

Wings 3D, and then uvmapping in that as well. There is probably a much easier way of doing the latter than in wings but for the moment i'm trying to stick to one program as much as possible! If you've done this stuff before have you any tips? (i hunger for tips and tricks. give me all cheat code)

I still haven't gotten the hang of UV mapping.

yeah same here! the only things i've realised that help with it are (a) automatic uv maps are generally awful and incomprehensible so its always better to take the time to CUTR SEAM or whatever the fuck manually and (b) if you set smaller sizes for the mapping then its much easier to mess around with, although i think thats what makes the one there look so blurry. give and take, you get what you deserve ~ big star..

first ever crude textured lowpoly 3d model whoo. needs a lot of work but i feel like i know enough now to actually have fun experimenting with this stuff! the myspace angle is because an unexpected mapping error meant he had a duplicate set of eyes on his neck (which in retrospect is pretty neat too)

What are you thinking about right now?

Why are a lot of us dicks?

whoa im not reading 11 pages of this stuff but yes a lot of people here are dicks. I've been a dick a lot of the time and i pretty much regret it. It's easy to pass it off as being The Harsh Truth or gruff-yet-honest but I've only ever known like two people on the internet that held themselves to high enough standards and self-scrutiny that this could honestly be said to apply to them and the rest of the time it is a kind of ridiculous ego trip posturing. heh sorry if ive hurt your precious feelings kiddies, guass im just too real for this sandpit *sticks around for next four years, is basically that 15-year-old who still hangs around middleschool kids impressing them with his razor wit and metallica albums*. Also on a slightly more dickish note (he who fights monsters etc) I'd say that I don't think this community is actually smart or funny or honest enough to justify the level of boring internet snarkiness that goes on. Probably none of them are! Probably worthwhile communities are those that dispense with dumb backsniping shit entirely... or maybe theyre worthwhile because they dispense with dumb backsniping shit entirely?? hrm hrm scientists are investigating this mysterious idea.

I suspect I would disagree with Kentona on every possible issue on game design but I still would actually listen to his opinions more than those of boring generic internet douche local #4850 because he seems like an actual human being rather than a streamlined internet persona engaging in POWER STRUGGLEZ. I like the Salt World forums a lot because people actually talk about things that interest them rather than trying to score an "epic pwn" as the kids say with a carefully deployed "cool story bro" or image macro.

i nthink there was some plotline about an alien in the general hospital too at aboiut the same time. i havent watched anything from that but i think it would look like this



this isnt from general hospital but it should be! i think its the "ridiculous sublime" ~ dead guy of 80s VHS stuff. enter the "mystery zone" of VHS. art garfunkel suddenly turns to the camera while a mysterious song plays. this song seems familiar. you step into the frame. art garfunkels smile seems oddly cold and distant yet you are at peace. synthesizer lullabies play as you enter a zone of flashing coloues a.k.a. "zorg zone", "omega zone". there is something at the other end. you arrive and are suddenly in te photoshoot for the cover to 'purple rain'. you are afraid but, prince smiles and his mysterious eldritch eyes assure you that everything is fine. you enter the zone. you are at piece. prince gives a beautific glance. with hungered flesh obscuring you mutely crave to adore.

welcome... to the true mans world

did you guys know that general hospital had a long-running plotline about an evil billionaire who tried to control the *whatever place general hospital was set in* with a gigantic weather machine. it was powered by a mysterious diamond called the "ice princess". inscribed on this gem were the formulas for a weather machine. in the middle of ordinary soapopera plotlines characters would suddenly look up and remark on how strange it was that it would be snowing in july while ominous music played (to denote presence of nefarious weather machine)



i cant find the video i wanted but i think this is like the perfect cultural subconscious of the reagan era. white people in formal dinnerwear (the males both look like art garfunkel) casually handling assault rifles in a cheesy VHS-era military base and swilling champagne while swarthy latinesque geurillas run around in the background and sometimes shots can be heard.

i had a wrestling watch (Wrestlin' Watch sounds like an excellent diddy kong racing character) when i was about 13. also a Hulk Hogan bootlegesque toy as a little kid. I remember cutting myself accidentally on the jagged fingers. this is the entirety of my involvement with professional wrestling.

i kind of wish i'd watched more wrestling stuff as a kid for p[retty much the same reasons i wish i could sit down and watch the entirety of General Hospital or something in terms of ridiculous soapopera plottwists.

Soundtrack: A Make-or-Gamebreaker?

also on subject of creative commons stuff http://freemusicarchive.org/ has a ridiculous amount of good stuff and i'd definitely recommend having a poke around. jesus christ theres even a page full of old Joe Meek demos and basically everything in the Excavated Shellac collection is worth hearing. archive.org also has a really good selection of old blues, jazz and country stuff from the twenties and thirties. I'd especially recommend some stuff there by the Carter Family and Frank Hutchinson even if youre not trying to find soundtracks.
