That’s a little horrifying.

The Starfox explosions lack a realistic brightness level. They don’t appear to be emitting light the way the Playstation’s explosions do. Even the afterburner effect on Starfox’s ship looks muted.

Hell, I’d go straight for Beyond Dark Castle… it really took the series to a whole different level.

Is anyone out there using Unreal for in-camera character/creature animation? My production experience with Unreal has been solely limited to background and lighting support, for which it is excellent.

This would have set off the spidey sensors with me.

Pink News is often not a reliable source; they’re prone to hyperbole.

I worked on the VFX of a movie in 2012 where we actually used a Kinect as a cheap Lidar replacement for mapping set geometry. Such a useful little device.

I don’t understand why the terms of “purchasing” digital content can’t specify a way to access content in the event that a vendor has to stop offering it.

Surely if the content creator is offering it for sale, it should be illegal to disallow use of it after being purchased.

I don’t see how even Facebook could have an issue with “telegram” being used commercially, but I wouldn’t be totally surprised if they did.
