Just reading the feed, it looks to me like an avid woodworker (been making his own furniture) who made it for himself, then lent it to CIG to display in return for being named an "MVP" (whatever that is), and probably expects to get it back.

Fatkraken posted:so it's a cupboard? $500 to $1,000 in materials and 60 to 100 hours of work. The guy has to have 20 hours just in the VCarve layout. Giving credit where it is due--the design work is well thought out and the build looks impeccable. Something like that could go for $3,000 which would be literally robbing the dude. Depending on the market and the guys reputation he should get three to five times the $3K price. Sarsapariller posted:To be fair, the exterior is pretty good work. If I wanted a thousand pound wooden cabinet made up to look like a random art asset from a failed kickstarter project that nobody was ever, ever going to recognize, he'd be the guy to call.

It looks good. He wanted to dedicate a lot of his time and effort to build something truly iconic and unique about the Star Citizen universe. He was forced to build the wardrobe changer.

That seems like a lot of time and effort just for crobberts to have a new toupee display case At this point nothing surprises me with this whole fiasco , like Milton the super nerd being 45k deep .... And now the pro wood worker knocking out a display piece for no financial gain

A brief interludequote:McFarland kicked off the meeting by cutting to the chase: nobody would be getting paid, but they were free to keep working regardless. “After conferring with our counsel and all financial people, unfortunately we are not able to proceed with payroll,” McFarland said. “We’re not firing anyone, we’re just letting you know that there will be no payroll in the short term.” https://news.vice.com/story/audio-fyre-festival-founders-reveal-to-employees-nobodys-getting-paid - they have the conference call. The best bit is where they ask everyone to stay on for the chance to be paid in the future.

The entrepreneur does not ignore anything. (Yep, procedural birds.) 3. The company grows fast. (300 within the first year?) 4. The team knows how to recover. (Team no longer exists, most left) Well, I think, based on facts presented in the article, CIG will fail.

"According to Eedar, a video game market research company owned by the NPD Group, about 30,000 successfully funded video game projects were on Kickstarter as of February, and more than $593 million had been pledged to them." This part actually made me lol. If these numbers are correct, nearly 25% of the entire amount of cash pledged on Kickstarting 30,000 different games has been spent on one single game. Sorry, I mean "game". e: Oh, and "spent". HairyManling fucked around with this message at 04:30 on May 12, 2017 |

Prey is a game where you can pick up any object in the world and throw or drop those items WITHOUT needing to ghost the item ala a game from 2003 Nit to mention locking the player into an animation while placing the object and its very clear the object just spawns at the ghosted location This is how games handled this kind if thing 15 years ago

Also the real Prey game from way back was loving awesome. New prey looks like garbage. Pretty sure Derek Smart could make a better game by himself.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ADB-wpvTD0k&t=263s It's strange that F42-UK is working on an implementation of volumetric fog from Lumberyard, since I thought they already merged the codebases! Improved volumetric fog was a feature added to Lumberyard 1.3 last June (Amazon just released version 1.9). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ADB-wpvTD0k&t=1215s  Obligatory cafeteria WIP... fidelitous

All of the amazing, and incredibly expensive mocap bullshit is wasted once people start to realize keyframe animations are still the majority here. Everything teleports to its place, does the thing, and teleports to new place if necessary.
