First time modelling a car
I pretty much modeled this pulling out edges for each section of the car. It's not even done yet but I'm starting to not know what else to work on for completing it, other than closingthe obvious gaps between sections and getting materials on it. My topology skills are probably pretty bad, but is something I've never come… -
Re: [Maya] GN Quad Fill Hole
Hi @devingeesr Can you open the Python file in a text editor and check the first couple of lines to make sure that you are indeed using version 4.07? If so, I would suggest to completely reset your Maya preferences and reinstall the script. You can reset the preferences by deleting the following folder:… -
Sentenza High Poly Bust
Hi everyone! I'm new to Polycount, and I joined so that I can find and learn from fellow 3D artists. I usually just lurk in different forums and communities but this new year I decided to actively seek feedback so I can improve my skills. A little background of me, I've been a generalist for years now, doing all sorts of… -
Re: Need help with a combining script.
No big deal, just nested one more loop and it gets the job done. I also added a check to prevent some errors and ensure things get renamed properly. Also it has the part from before where it converts instances. You might get some warnings/errors but neither should interfere with the operation. Try this one out for size… -
Re: Watch Dogs: Holy shit.
@ tupwick: Oh, I can totally see how there might be literally 100's of ways to do things but I feel this showcase has been tailored and maybe even scripted a little to show it off at its best. The cutscene at the end is something that could happen somewhere else. e.g. inside the club, but implementing that kind of variety… -
Re: Speeding up highpoly hard surface workflow
It's a mess if you or anyone else have to make major revisions to the model. For you, you have to go all the way back to moi and redo the zbrush process. For someone else its more complicated. What if they don't know how to use, or don't have a license for moi? You've got your own proprietary workflow that only you can use… -
Re: 3DS Max 2012 off-center gizmo on selection
Oh its more a process issue, I'm often aligning something to the center of something else, but its been a while since I had the program opened, and felt it was awkward, so maybe I had something else installed or its a memory from something from another program. I don't know, it just felt more natural that the gizmo would… -
Re: Sharing tips vs keeping tricks to yourself
One thing I haven't seen mentioned here is that if you want to understand something deeply, you should try to teach it to someone else. Put the idea together, break it down concisely into it's core points, and communicate it to someone else - It'll illuminate very quickly where your weakness in understanding something is,… -

Re: WIP - Cathedral Environment
Limewax: I agree, lighting and props will help greatly. It was suggested to me to block out the entire scene to work out any problems with modularity before I did anything else. It is killing me to not go in and make things look good, but I am forcing myself to finish the blockout before I do anything else. This is really…
