SIGGRAPH 2001

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the stuff-to-read dept.

Morgan McGuire writes "SIGGRAPH 2001, the graphics industry's main scientific conference and gathering for artists, film producers, researchers, and game developers, just ended. I wrote up my experiences as a game developer/researcher at the conference for flipcode." Lots of stuff for those of us who wish we could go every year and see the pretty pictures. Hits on Shrek, Monsters, Inc. and a variety of new techniques floating around.

  1. OT: slashcode by Gregoyle · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Is it just me, or is the new slashcode buggy as a MoFo? I'm getting missing titles on stories, internal server errors, and all sorts of silly things. Something tells me the newest slashcode was not ready for prime time yet.

    I'm finding it similarly bad. Be patient, though. They're fixing it as fast as they can. We're testing it in ways that they never anticipated, and at a faster rate.
