![]() Everyone needs to collaborate on the same project and be allowed to change it and receive updates as fast as possible. Game development is at its core a centralized effort. Perforce is packed full of features and I’m still discovering some of them. ![]() Some are migrating away after massive engineering efforts, others like the game industry are sticking with it. Perforce has a history of being successfully used on large projects and by reputable companies. This shows how much effort was necessary to adapt Git to handle as much as Perforce could. This was used notably for the Windows repository, which has now been migrated to Git, but they could only achieve this incredible feat after creating VFS for Git (previously called GVFS). Microsoft famously maintains (or maintained?) a fork of Perforce called Source Depot. EA, Ubisoft, Epic, Capcom, Crytek, CD Projekt Red just to name a few. On their officially disclosed list of customers, you can find Perforce is used by major game studios. In fact, I do not know of any sizeable studio not using Perforce. While this claim is hard to verify, in my experience this is true when it comes to medium to large teams. They also claim that 19 out of 20 game development studios are using Perforce. These days the official branding for the source control product is “Helix Core”, but in my heart and for this article, we will still refer to it as Perforce.Īs stated on the official website, Perforce focuses on security, managing binary artifacts, performance at scale and teams distributed globally. Later, the company was bought and more products were added over the years to compliment the source control. I still remember its slogan being “the fast source control”. Perforce went through a few branding (mis)adventures as the years went by. The goal was to provide a system allowing companies to keep track of changes in large projects containing both source code and binary files. This time, let’s examine why is Perforce so popular.Īccording to wikipedia, Perforce (the company) was started in 1995 with its first product being the eponymous Perforce (the source control solution). In the previous article, I explained why Git is not the most optimal source control solution for game development. ![]() I have worked primarily with workflow issues and source control, so this is a product I know very well and I might be slightly biased towards it. I have personally used Perforce in every single one of my professional projects. Pretty much all major AAA studios, and medium to large teams are using Perforce as their main source control, so there must be some valid reasons behind this choice. Perforce is the most widely used source control solution for game development studios.Īt Darewise, we evaluated many options and finally opted for Perforce, much like the rest of the game industry, or at least those who can afford it. This is part of a series of posts on source control for game development.

![]() ![]() The performance scales linearly with the number of cores and threads in your system. As your computer gets more powerful KeyShot becomes faster. KeyShot does not require any special hardware or graphics card and it takes full advantage of all cores and threads inside a computer. High core-count Xeon CPUs are highly recommended. You also want very good cooling solutions to get as much turbo clock headroom as possible.Ī mid-range or even onboard GPU will be fine for Keyshot and the money you save on GPU costs should go into increasing RAM (to feed all cores) and getting a CPU with more cores. Las marcas de todo el mundo confían en KeyShot por su velocidad, facilidad de uso, materiales científicamente precisos y capacidades avanzadas de edición de materiales. Core speed is of course important, but because Keyshot scales linearly with every core you make available, it is almost always better to trade more cores for a slight loss in clock speed. KeyShot le ofrece una representación 3D en tiempo real que muestra los resultados al instante y reduce el tiempo para crear imágenes de productos realistas. GPU power is used to generate effects and other optimized functions, but what Keyshot wants is CPU cores, and lots of them. Unlike many of the rendering leaders on the market, Keyshot is very heavily focused on CPU rendering. More often than not, you do not require specialist 3D modelling knowledge to rapidly create the visuals you require. Keyshot is also praised for the simplicity of both its workflow and interface. Keyshot also allows for global lighting and photon mapping. For example, it can do real time bloom and subsurface scattering. ![]() It provides for keyframe-less animation and can do things in real time that other more traditional renderers balk at.

However, you can still encounter low rendering speeds when working with large video files.ĭaVinci Resolve can occasionally lag too, but because it relies more on the GPU (the graphics card) for processing, the CPU doesn't have to deal with as much strain. Premiere Elements is less prone to these issues, mainly because its basic nature means that projects are typically not that complex. Unless you have a high-end CPU, which can cost up to $2,000, you may struggle to get smooth playback of 4K footage, especially when you’re adding complicated effects. For DaVinci Resolve to run smoothly, you’ll need at least 16GB of RAM and 4GB of VRAM.īut even if your computer satisfies these requirements, Premiere Pro can often run sluggishly and even crash. While performance depends on your computer hardware, you also need to be confident that your editing software can handle large files.īoth Premiere Pro and Premiere Elements require at least 8GB of RAM (16GB is recommended for HD video and 32GB for 4K) and an external graphics card with a minimum of 2GB VRAM. Video editing is computer-intensive, especially since many cameras now record in 4K. Replacing your clips with proxies can speed up performance (Image credit: Future) It’s a useful way to learn and makes Elements much more suitable to beginner editors than Pro or Resolve, which have steep learning curves. Guided Edits take the user through various tasks step by step. Where Premiere Elements does win out is in features for new learners. In this and other features, such as audio editing and motion animation, Premiere Elements is barebones but accessible, whereas Premiere Pro gives you much more precise control and DaVinci Resolve even more so. For novices, it’s sufficient to apply interesting looks to home videos, but more technically minded filmmakers will find it lacking. Its three main tabs are Quick, which allows basic dragging and dropping of clips into a sequence, Guided, and Expert, which has a simpler version of Pro’s timeline and effects controls.įor example, when working with colour, you can apply preset Instagram-style filters and modify these with a few sliders, such as brightness and contrast. Premiere Elements, meanwhile, has an interface structurally similar to Pro’s but significantly stripped down. A whole team – editor, colour grader, sound editor, VFX artist, etc – can work on their elements of the project simultaneously, with a powerful database making sure they don’t overwrite each other’s work. The colour options are particularly advanced Resolve started as a colour grading program, and it shows in the unmatched depth of the controls available.Ī feature unique to Resolve is its full multi-user collaboration. Its in-depth audio, colour, and effects workspaces are to a standard used for major Hollywood productions and all within one programme. However, for the best possible audio, effects, and colour work, you have to send the project to other programs within Adobe’s Creative Suite, such as Audition or After Effects.ĭaVinci Resolve’s big selling point is that there’s no need for this complex process. For example, there are numerous colour effects, including the powerful Lumetri Color, which has RGB curves and shadow/midtone/highlights wheels. If you buy Resolve 12.5 Studio, you will receive a free upgrade to the official Resolve 14 release (and the current 14 Studio beta works with the 12.5 dongle).Premiere Pro has many options to fine-tune the various aspects of your project. When Resolve 14 Studio officially comes out, Blackmagic has said that they will drop the dongle requirement and switch to (I'm assuming) a serial number based authorization which previous Studio users can obtain from Blackmagic.Ĥ. ![]() At some point Resolve 14 will be officially released, have no idea when but a good guess IMHO would be around late August (just pulling this out of you know where, but also based on previous release cycles).ģ.

You buy the Dongle from the online store, then download the software from the BMD website? For example, there's a lesson that requires you to "draw Nemo's eyes" - the entire body is already drawn for you. The lessons have been made even simpler, and the lesson format is different - you don't need to follow the lessons linearly, but I've heard a lot of complaining about how simple the lessons are. The undo button is still present, and now so are layers. It's also meant for kids and also focuses more on digital drawing, but they seem to have fine tuned a lot of stuff: for example, the zoom function is now a lot more powerful and the upper screen example zooms in with you, there's more variation in the thickness and shape of your lines, and so on. Every time you finish a lesson you unlock not only the next lesson but also three minilessons and a few free painting templates, so you can practice your lessons a lot without getting bored of drawing the same thing over and over again.ĭisney Art Academy is the one I know the least about for now. In fact, during the first few lessons you'll just be tracing the full outlines - that gets you used to handling the stylus and firms your lines, so it's not a bad thing at all, but if you're familiar with drawing and want more of a challenge you can change that option. The program offers more help, too, with a slower step-by-step for you to follow and the option of using the drawing grid, construction shapes, or outright full outlines. It still teaches you drawing techniques, but there's now stuff like more zooming capacity and the ever important undo button! The mediums are more along the lines of pencil, pens, markers and brushes. Pokemon Art Academy is more meant for kids and is much more directed at digital art. On the other hand, I've heard this game translates nearly seamlessly to physical mediums and you can use its lessons in real life. The most help you get is a drawing grid on the screen and the program showing you the steps you should take to complete your work. More importantly, you can only zoom once and there's no undo button, so if you mess up you have to manually fix your mistakes. ![]() It tries to teach you a little about every nondigital medium (graphite, charcoal, pastels, paint and so on) and does its best to mimic traditional art as much as possible, so you have to, for example, reload your paintbrush by lifting the stylus off the screen. Regular Art Academy (Lessons for Everyone in NA) focuses a lot more on traditional art. ![]() Hey!

The multi-step sequence of “pick a duration, then a pitch” is gone, thanks to a stylus and innovative software. NotateMe allows a composer to write the note directly with a stylus, in much the same way that Mozart might have written with a pen on paper. Until recently, a composer had to first choose a note’s duration (e.g., quarter note), then place the note on a music staff. Both apps work best with a stylus, not a fingertip.Ī stylus eliminates laborious workflows for music composers, too. Illustrators might use Autodesk’s Sketchbook Pro, while animators might try FlipaClip. Ask an illustrator to choose to use a pen or a finger to draw, and most will choose the pen. People who draw may quite naturally prefer Galaxy Note devices to fingertip-first systems. That’s possible, thanks to the architecture and licensing Google allows with Android. With the Note, a stylus is a first-class input method, along with touch, voice, and a virtual keyboard. The “Note” in the name means exactly that: you can create a digital note with a pen. Samsung embraces writing instruments with their Galaxy Note line. Pablo Picasso sketched portraits with a pencil in the early 20th century. Leonardo DaVinci made notes with pen and ink in the late 15th century. Gu Kaizhi painted scrolls with a reed in the late 4th century (C.E.). Yet people have made marks to convey meaning with tools for thousands of years. Maybe Apple and Google are right: digital notetaking with a stylus seems rare. You’ll likely notice that people write (on paper) or type (on a physical or virtual keyboard). Observe how people take notes in your next meeting. The company’s Material Design document states that “ touch, voice, mouse, and keyboard are all first-class input methods.” By omission, Google relegates the stylus’ status to that of a second-class device. Apple leaves stylus-making to third-party vendors. Microsoft promotes the pen with Surface systems. Support for a stylus varies among major vendors. Andy Wolber explains why he thinks stylii aren't second-class input methods. With a stylus, you write words and draw pictures without switching apps.
