Hey friends, I'm in a tough spot - If you know of anyone needing a Technical Artist please hit me up. I've about a month to find an apartment and things are getting pretty real. Open to anything! 17 years experience in the industry, and know enough #UnrealEngine to be called "the Unreal Girl". <3

For what its worth, I've also spent 4 years in Architectural Rendering and worked at Quixel - realistic rendering is my jam.

Got a little annoyed at a tool again - a lot of blender addons trying to add WASD style movement were 1,500+ lines and getting it wrong. Unreal-like movement with panning, WASD nav and camera smoothing. controls configurable. GPL.💖 #blender #unrealengine #gamedev 🔗 codeberg.org/shaderwitch/...

Just because I know im gonna get people telling me about fly/walk mode - I'm aware! The point of this is to replicate how Unreal does it. I prefer not having to enter a mode, and instead just holding right click is much quicker to navigate - I also get smoothing controls. It also adds panning.

If you're wondering if your studio needs to implement a photo mode for your game. Please do, it allows those who worked on the game to still take portfolio screenshots. #gamedev

You know the only thing I don't like about Silent Hill 2:Remake is Magdalena. I love that song so much, and for the remake they made it resolve in the end. I feel that the original was way more haunting because the simple piece never returned "home", and said way more about unresolved grievances.

I do like that it's featured more in the center though, it becomes the central song and theme. Which is really cool to hear too. I love it.
