Paintballing and got hit in the head!!

manilamerc · Jul 2013

I was paintballing and I got hit in the side of the head. It's been two weeks and the bumb is still on my head. Anyone know how to get rid of it?

Lance it....let the blood drain till you pass out..when you come to, you should be free of the black death.... Though you probably shouldn't follow medical advice on a game art forum. I got hit in the neck once..probably just a welt..or an egg sack or something

If you're using Zbrush, start by going to a lower subdivision of your head and simply hold down Shift while smoothing out your bump with a few careful strokes of the pen, provided you got a wacom tablet.

Be careful though, you dont want to make a dent in your head either.

Hope this helps.

My advanced medical knowledge tells me you have head cancer.

a lot of us study anatomy - we even have some skeletons here at work, it should be fine, we know what we're doing

Nah, just revert your head mesh file back to an earlier version. Make sure you don't revert any code files when you do or you'll forget what happened to you in the last few weeks.

I'm sorry. You have 6 months to live.

A cased sphere of vegetable oil hitting you at 150-200mph is going to leave more than two weeks worth of bruise.

Start worrying this time next year.

And to add to this, if your bump has an ngon pole on it, use zbrushes alternative smoothing algorithm designed for poles. To activiate it, hold shift and begin to smooth, then let go of shift while you are smoothing.

This makes the pole smooth. Good luck with your pole bump.

I think your best course of action is to draw a face on it and refer to it as Pustulio

I can't express in words how hard I laughed when I read this haha. Polycount never lets me down.

just rebake your head in xnormal, you can use a beach ball for the high poly.

Shoot the other side, you're all squared out buddy.

JohnnyRaptor · Jul 2013

or you could go creative...like this hardcore paintballer..

Envart · Jul 2013

I think you and Pustulio will be very happy together. The weather has been great lately, so you guys should just get out there and have some fun. (not paintball)
