Uhm, I make environment maps as cube maps, they works for every game that supports that. However, you need to make shaders yourself, copy/change someone elses, pretty simple.

I just re-released those older on the Unreal Scene, you can see them in this thread.

If you've made past the first stage, it means they like you and think you have potential and the talent.

Hrm, in London, Ontario. Not too far from Toronto. I'll keep that in mind. Do you know what kinds of games the London offices generally produce? FPS or racing games, etc.

I GOT IT ;d;d

This is the whole story.
I got this mail

If I translate that it would be something like: We want you, we want you bad.

I thought it was a stupid joke or something, so I returned, this (translated): Is this a stupid spam or something? (no sign or anything, just that).

After a 30 min or so, after the hypen when I relised that it wasen't any joke, I sent another mail explaining that I usualy gets alot of spam and that it was a mistake etc. Well, wheels in motion, went for a interview, they didn't even wanna know about my previous workexperience (I told something about it back in the thread). He called me this tuesday I think, really early like 1030 (I was in deep sleep), and I answerd, I must have sounded dizzy or something because he asked me if I were sleeping, and I of course didn't say that I were doing that, because its kinda, lazy sleeping at that time ;D, well he said, and nothing more: "Ok, well, you need to get up earlier, because we wants to hire you, can you be here on friday?" "Yes I can" "Ok, bye then".

And that's it, ;D I got a great sallery, espec compared to all my previous jobs, there's a bonus plan, a great place with alot of people from different countries ;D

Thanks for the lucks I got from here, really helped ;D

I'm gonna stick around, I still have a Q3 map to fin, and I probably will move to Q4 or QW later, when GTK 1.5 has a ful support. Nobody leaves this place! ;D
