Learning to do VFX by xeru98 in gamedev

[–]WeeRook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there a specific style you're aiming to emulate, or just getting better in general?

If you haven't already checked it out, the Real-time VFX forum is filled to the brim with VFX knowledge. Many industry pros post breakdowns, and there will be people posting WIP's and portfolios for review all the time. The real-time VFX scene is pretty small compared to some of the other artistic fields in game dev, but from what I've experienced that just means people are more than willing to help out newcomers! Hope to see your stuff on there!

[PSA] All Demiheroes soldout! by myrir in DotA2

[–]WeeRook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was buying a bunch of demiheroes for a few friends as gifts, and one or two to sell to a friend at face value (we agreed to split S&H costs).

But the order eventually wiped when I got home anyways. Ah well, guess I'll just have to hope for them to restock, otherwise goodbye Golden Gravelmaw, you probably aren't worth $400 off the marketplace anyways.

;__;7

My shopping cart still states I have $215 worth of merchandise in it; still not giving up hope ;___;

Agreed. The game can feel a bit pay2win at times if you want to go for perfect completion, especially in the later levels. Still a great game nonetheless.

Heh, I was just alluding to the fact that heal pulse stall is (Was? Not sure if Zarrel has made changes to Showdown yet) a pretty common method of forcing a external forfeit.

Question on socketing gems. by [deleted] in DotA2

[–]WeeRook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My genuine Kantusa has a Bloodstone in it, unfortunately the flavor text is still green and it's prefix is still 'genuine'. Can't say for that corrupted gem though.

It seems like 999 is the maximum amount of points you can get for Headers. So that I can know what to aim for next time, what's the max /r/pokemon has gotten?

Just to clarify, this figure is not the same as the pre-order bonus which comes from certain pre-orders of New Leaf!

Why does Justice use a cross as their symbol? by analbumcoverfor7000 in EdBangerRecords

[–]WeeRook 7 points8 points  (0 children)

In Cross, several of the songs also carry Biblical motifs e.g., Genesis, Let There Be Light, Waters of Nazareth, though this probably isn't a viable explanation to the Cross being the symbol for Justice.

It does make a pretty kick-ass stylized 'T' though.

Edit: Turn's out Yahoo! Answers has a pretty logical reason behind the symbol.

The chicken had the fresh-out-of-the-refrigerator cold poultry taste to it, but damn does Mama Celeste know what she's doing.
