Gameking 0 Posted January 28, 2006 Report Share Posted January 28, 2006 Hey guys I have registered here and should have my website finished within 2 days. You can look at my demo reel from this link but please allow 10 to 15 min to DL as it is over 80 megs. You will need to un-zip it as well using WinRAR. In this reel you can see some of my animations as well as my modeling and texture work Demo Reel Thank you,Gameking Quote Link to post Share on other sites

oDDity 3 Posted January 28, 2006 Report Share Posted January 28, 2006 We could use an animator above anything else. There was only a few seconds of anmation in there, but it looked good.

New Horizon 534 Posted January 28, 2006 Report Share Posted January 28, 2006 Hello Gameking! Great to see you made it over to the forums. I'll set you up as an applicant and move this into our private forums. Edit: Topic has now been moved. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
New Horizon 534 Posted January 28, 2006 Report Share Posted January 28, 2006 Just watched your demo. Your work looks fantastic. Great presentation too. You have my vote. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sparhawk 17 Posted January 28, 2006 Report Share Posted January 28, 2006 I can't watch it. When I run it, the player freezes. Quote Gerhard Link to post Share on other sites
New Horizon 534 Posted January 28, 2006 Report Share Posted January 28, 2006 I can't watch it. When I run it, the player freezes. It's very good work. Great display of animation, texturing and modeling. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gameking 0 Posted January 29, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2006 I dont know why it would freeze up make sure you save the file to your desktop and unzip it. then play the .mov file form there. Thanks for the vote let me know when you reach your descision. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Subjective Effect 24 Posted January 29, 2006 Report Share Posted January 29, 2006 sparhawk is using linux though. A TDS-hating version of linux too! It doesn't like good graphics Quote I want your brain... to make his heart... beat faster. Link to post Share on other sites
Springheel 4670 Posted January 29, 2006 Report Share Posted January 29, 2006 Very interesting stuff. Are you familiar with Thief? Oddity's correct that animation tops our list of needs right now.

gleeful 0 Posted January 29, 2006 Report Share Posted January 29, 2006 very nice demo-reel, Gameking! looking forward to your contributions,gleeful Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gameking 0 Posted January 29, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2006 No I am not familiar with Thief. Is there someway I can get a demo or free copy of the game. Also I understand yall are using lightwave for the models. Please make sure you export the files as OBJ's so that I can use either Maya or Max which I feel would be best for animating as I dont have LW and haven't used it b4. But if I must use LW I would need to get hold of a copy of it. Anyone know how much it is? Also this is a Doom 3 mod? Or what engine are you using I know as a modeller this is really only important for exporting my assets and animations but I still need to know poly count restrictions, texture map and normal map size limits for the work. So let me know if I am onboard with you guys. If not I have other projects that people have asked me to work on as well as my own. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
oDDity 3 Posted January 29, 2006 Report Share Posted January 29, 2006 Maya is the correct app for animating doom models, so you're fine there. I'll give them to you in mb format. There is no exporter for maya 7 though, maya 6 is the last version you can export from. We really only need animations from you ATM, so no need to worry about anyting else.

Gameking 0 Posted January 29, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2006 ok NP I have Maya 6 and 7 so it will be NP to use either program. The animations I have on my demo reel were done in Maya 6. Also sorry for any confusion about my working with you guys I had no idea you actually had people in the gaming industry working with you. BTW I am seriously looking for a job Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Subjective Effect 24 Posted January 29, 2006 Report Share Posted January 29, 2006 Gameking, there are demos of Thief 1,2 and 3 about. Google them. Quote I want your brain... to make his heart... beat faster. Link to post Share on other sites
sparhawk 17 Posted January 29, 2006 Report Share Posted January 29, 2006 sparhawk is using linux though. A TDS-hating version of linux too! It doesn't like good graphics For TDM development I use Windows currently. It's not that I don't know how to run a movie, apparently it's the codec in use.

BTW I am seriously looking for a job Who would that be? Domarius? IMO he is only apprentice. Don't know about the others but AFAIK noone here is in actual gamebusiness.I applied for a job once here in Germany, on two different companies, but they prefer to hire students. They are much cheaper and even gratefull to work for the honor instead of money. Having 20 years experience of software development doesn't count much when you can get one working almost for free.

sparhawk 17 Posted January 29, 2006 Report Share Posted January 29, 2006 Actually I was using Linux as my primary system before I started to work on TDM. I still have to get my soundcard working under Linux. That's the annoying thing about it. Quote Gerhard Link to post Share on other sites

oDDity 3 Posted January 29, 2006 Report Share Posted January 29, 2006 I dn't think it's necessary to know the Thief games just to do animations.

god_is_my_goldfish 1 Posted January 29, 2006 Report Share Posted January 29, 2006 Well it'll help if he knows what kind of game were making here Here are some links to the demos for the various games in the series Gameking: Thief 1 and 2http://www.thief-thecircle.com/media/demos/ Thief 3http://www.thief-thecircle.com/media/t3demo/ Quote http://www.thirdfilms. comA Thief's Path trailer is now on Youtube!

Springheel 4670 Posted January 29, 2006 Report Share Posted January 29, 2006 It's not crucially important for animations, true, but it will probably help to have a basic familiarity with the different alertness states, etc. Quote TDM Missions: A Score to Settle * A Reputation to Uphold * A New Job * A Matter of Hours Video Series: Springheel's Modules * Speedbuild Challenge * New Mappers Workshop * Building Traps Link to post Share on other sites
