I was playing New 'n' Tasty when..
 
Hey guys, it's been a good few years since I came on here but I thought this would be the best place to bring this oddness. A good while ago I made a few pieces of vector fan art, the whole thread is here and also contains some of my rendering of set art assets, but the posts I'm referring to are here and here. Now having recently gotten my grubby mits on New 'n' Tasty I can't express the level of tummy butterflies I had when I saw these exact vectors in the opening cutscene, now I know what you are going to say, how do you know they are the the versions you made, the answer is in the mistakes, because I can't not see them.

Of course if you need some convincing here is a link to all the vectors I made, now here is a youtube link to the intro of New 'n' Tasty containing the vectors. Just in case you cant get them side by side here is the Paramite,Scrab and Mudokon meat diagrams.

I have got to say I was beyond taken by surprise at this, how do you guys think this has happened, I'm made up beyond belief they are in the game but it isn't half a bit random.

I was sceptical, but youve convinced me.

This should be in the Spoiler Forum.

I'm glad I got it across :)

Exactly my thoughts, although I would be lying if I said I wasn't baffled by it all.

Fair enough, I've never considered an opening cutscene as a spoiler also the thread wasn't about the story, tis no worry though :)

That's interesting (and cool) - Did they credit you?

Shade667 03-04-2015 11:02 PM

Could check the credits.

That's weird, they usually do. Maybe they just forgot, but still...

Wow. Speaking of crediting you. I actually made my new YouTube logo using your vectors just yesterday...

They are very high quality and very close to the originals. So it's not surprising they might of been used in New 'N' Tasty. Try and get in contact with JAW to see if they can put you in the credits. First obviously confirm that they're actually the same vectors though.

Havoc 03-05-2015 04:41 AM

They do look very similar.

Wouldn't be very nice of JAW to just use someone's art like that without any credit or compensation what so ever. Bad JAW. Bad!

Hey Comrade Max. I'm sorry your vector art ended up in the game without any credit to you. That was an oversight on our part.

The reason we never got in touch with you to ask or even let you know was that we didn't intend for them to make it to the released product. We used your vectors internally to put together the boardroom projections with the intention that our artists would redraw the originals themselves. But we ran out of time and didn't have the chance, leaving your vectors in but without any check to contact you. It was an honest oversight.

If you want, PM me your name and I'll make sure it gets included in the credits.

Wil saves the fucking day.

Havoc 03-05-2015 08:33 AM

That's how you solve that shit. Also give the man a 0.000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001% of the game profit.

That's amazing and would make my day :)

Working in entertainment, I've seen similar situations get incredibly ugly - I'm impressed with how well both JAW and Morade Max handled that, and how smoothly that ran.
