Hi, So I am making a management/builder sim that involves interior design, eg. many unique props, like The Sims series. One thing I am still not quite sure is how many polygon to spend on my unique props. I want to share my current line of thoughts: please let me know whether they make sense and whether I made any obvious…
I'm trying to capture this look, in particular the windows; So I built a little text asset with a glass box on top. Added vertex colours in 3DSmax and have brought it into Unreal4. Made a 'master' material (pink) and then a instance (blue). Main questions, 1) Shouldn't I be making the master material grey? Then only bring…

Hey everyone. So, I just got a Macbook Retina 15" (The one with the 750m in it) and tried out Zbrush. Doing anything at all maxes out the CPU and the fans scream like a jet engine... I read that a few people having this problem, but the solution is to turn the max CPU cores available down to 1 or 2. Whilst this helps, it…

Hey guys, I recently finished a fairly complex scene inside of Marmoset Toolbag 3 (the project post is here) and thought I would give a post-mortem of issues I had and mention features that would have been helpful to have. As I was working I took notes of problems or workflow issues that kept recurring. I spent so much…
I've been looking at getting a new GPU; My Radeon 4770 is getting really long in the teeth. The GTX 750 caught my eye because it can trade blows with the R7 260x despite having a TDP of just 60 watts. I want to re-use this PC in the future as an HTPC so low power draw is definitely a big draw for me. But. But. I found out…
Hello, I'll explain what's my goal in another paragraph but I'll start by getting to the point. I want to see an overview of my world quickly. I was going to use a 2D vectorial software (Inkscape) to make a bird's-eye view of the world but then I thought there might be a--very--simple software, basically a 2D vectorial…
