Sorry for the lateness in getting this up, but I just returned from my vacation in Vermont ;). Anyhow, on Saturday, ATI sat down with the folks from Irrational Games to get the low-down on the graphics side of Tribes:Vengeance (go figure). Anyhow, the interview goes pretty indepth with technical specifications but later on also talks briefly about about the company and the game itself.


Q: What graphic tools were used during development of Tribes: Vengeance?

A: All our art is done using 3ds MAX 5, character studio, and Photoshop. We produce normal maps for our characters using ATI's NormalMapper tool. Additionally we have our own in-house tool for producing the detailed cutscenes needed by the T:V storyline.
Definitely not your run of the mill interview and if you get off by hardware TnL and the like, check it out.

Kudos to Donna for the heads up.
