I had my computer go down for maintenance nearly every other month last year. Turns out a RAM stick was bad. And the GPU VRAM was also glitching. And a HD started to fail while another imploded. The mobo is also suspicious. Wonderful times. After RMAs and tweaking to stabilize it so it could limp ahead for a little longer…
After some exchange with Autodesk team (with helps from Paul Kind) I can confirm Maya 2017 doesn't support grayscale roughness map, it needs a RGB map. Kinda weird as it works fine with a grayscale metallic map. Anyway, it's actually a bit easier to work in the RMA workflow (where you bake Roughness, Metallic and AO into…
@GarfSnacks, Height map is 4033x4033. No macro normal for blendings. Thanks. :) @narticus, A tutorial is planned for future but I'm busy with works and packs atm. @Gazu, Good normal maps play a big role in keeping the details coming. Yep, WM2 but not using WM2's splat map creator. I generate several masks from the height…
The box guy reminds me of Faust from GGXX, but damn that idle anim is on par with SF3:3S quality wise. Are you coding the engine yourself or using Mugen? I'd LOVE to playtest for you as fighting games are my fave genre. Anyway, I know you want to do a sprite based game, but have you seen Chaos Breakers by Taito? It's using…
I'll try to summarize what I think about 9/11, and why I don't put so much time into the trivial details of the conspiracy theories. A lot of facts don't line up. While one side believes Al-qaeda and BinLaden (remember them?) caused the attacks, the other believes the government possibly played a role. It's a black and…
Wha wha what?! Milius pissed from a great height upon Conan at every chance he got, didnt read the sources, years later still expressed complete disinterest. He wanted to make Conan about himself, took all the dark fantasy out of the thing and turned him into a cheerful pyschotic moron. What makes Conan cool, for me, is…
Your post here is why I generally don't go in for a conspiracy theory. You're crediting them both with the incredible competence to pull off some globe-spanning crime, but also saying their failure at the very easiest part gives them away. Has the story changed? Yeah, sure. I say that's a product of the information age and…
Here's a sample of DV-recorded-then-compressed video. Works otay. http://www.whatif-productions.com/video.htm (not the Gobbler one tho, that's pre-rendered) One of the Discreet demo guys told me how they compress their 3ds Max vids, which look pretty good. Might be worth a re-examination of the TechSmith route, at least…
Hello Polycount! The team here at Black River Studios is proud to present their work on our latest game, Finding Monsters Adventure! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SojFOYlXX0I http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3nW9cQ6zs2s The game is totally free and available on many devices on Google Play. It's super cute and fun for all…
An image of the model itself would also be helpful. :smile: However, I can see some of the issue already. It looks like you used a workflow preset in dDo for another engine. The Unreal 4 specs (RMA-packed and standard) don't export specular maps by default, and roughness maps are inverted compared to what you've got as…
