Re: Making sense of hard edges, uvs, normal maps and vertex counts
Guys, I have a question for Blender users - or anyone else who can explain me what I'm doing wrong. When I try to make a tangent normal bake, I'm always getting an error message that says "feedback loop detected". It means that there is something wrong with either the highpoly or the lowpoly mesh right? The strange thing… -
Re: Cutting the Cable Cord?
This will probably be a little unhelpful, but for the sake of answering the question: No. Yes. Neither - catch up TV is free in this country for a few channels (BBC, Channel 4, as examples). When all else fails, I'll watch stuff at someone else's place and make a social thing out of certain shows :) Cable is just too… -
Re: Half-Life 2 Model Pack
Yeah as everyone else have said, great work bro! It looks really sweet. I just have one question. Shouldn't the crystals of the gravity-gun have a little more like hot metal texture? Maybe a rock overlay or something? Everything else looks top-notch. I really like the HK-USP, the speculars looks fantastic. The ar also… -
Re: your cocept vs their concept.
For maximum awesomepoint: show that you can build things from someone elses concept, cause that is very important. Most of the time, professional artists are working on things based on someone elses concept. Having the artistic ability to design great-looking things on your own, is also very important, cause that shows… -
Re: Stuck on what to do next: Mesh Optimization
It has been quite a long time since I last posted an updated on this project. I called it quits after creating the low poly version. At the time I did not have the technical know-how to take the piece much further and I was so frustrated and irritated that I decided to move on to something else. I have learned a lot since… -
Re: titan
Yeah, I haven't really been paying attention to recent hires. It's good to hear that Blizzard has been poaching polycounters for this new game already. If we are to consider this realistically, Blizzard can't create WoW 2.0. They already have WoW, and it isn't going away. They can update and iterate WoW indefinitely,… -
Re: Should artists looking for a first job be using Marmoset?
![[HP]](https://us.v-cdn.net/5021068/uploads/userpics/PW2278Q17H7M/nK9DV1HH4CBZK.jpg)
What do you mean it requires no technical ability? It requires as much technical ability as UDK, CE3, Unity or anything else does to import a model. You still need to work with your lighting and materials, just as with anything else. But I think I see what you mean, since marmo specializes in in good sharp presentation… -
Re: Playstation 4 Thread
I've always struggled with the argument against used game sales. If you sell something you effectively lose ownership of it, and thus there's no logical reason why you'd deserve any compensation in case the new owner decides to transfer ownership to someone else. Is there any other type of business where the original… -
Re: The Best Approach to Character Art?
yeah definitely agree with Jacque. and you say you hate drawing/sucking at drawing. but everyone wants to be better at drawing, the only way you could possibly have a hope of putting in the amount of work required to master drawing, is if you actually enjoy doing it. as though drawing is this last resort way of passing the… -
Re: The Valve Handbook!
They wouldn't take one person's word, nor would any other studio. If you're in a studio like that you need to GTFO. Peer reviews are most likely done by about 5-10 people and they see what everyone says. If one person says some totally crazy shit that no one else did, then the real issue would by why did that one person…
