Re: Dominance war discussion.
I really don't want to have to make my own concepts again... That's a silly restriction and it always makes my entry less awesome than it could have been. Other than that I'm psyched. This might be the first comp since TF2 that I really work hard to finish. No time to participate in minis, but I'll be clearing up my… -
Re: Skyrim - Curse Mod Contest - $15,000 Total Winnings
A polycount mod would be fun, ala TF2. Nothing big. But i know how we all talk a big game, but end up being too busy to do it. Sad panda. -
Re: How to create Point Light Maps?
I really don't know if there's any special trick to enhance it; they're most certainly also baking gradient maps and using them with the Point Light Maps to push the value gradation. Other than also manually painting lighting in the diffuse by using more saturated versions of the colors, there probably isn't much to it. I… -
Re: Modo 401 for game art
Valve used Modo for TF2 chars, I believe. -
Re: please no...

Re: Tutorial - Gradient Mapping & UDK
Makes more sense now. And Glynn, yes I got that part, I've seen that before with TF2's ramped shading, but this is being used for diffuse colors instead of shading colors. So rasmus, do you finish the greyscale "depthmap" completely before you start creating the gradient? Or do you go back and forth a bit? -
Re: points for McCain
Nah, I give him props for sure. Very good thing of him to say. I'm amazed at the ignorance and uneducated opinions of his followers supporters, sheesh. Obama's an Arab? tfw -
Re: Shit VFX Artists Say
I have been known to be called that lol. But yeah, its more relevant to us than complete strangers getting a job cause we can personally relate to it a lot :) (Not to mention the utterly pointless 2-3 subsequent pages of people bleeting 'Congrats!' in job threads. I'm here years longer than the TF2 Polypack comp. There's… -
Re: [New Challenge] Character Intro Shot
I pull a lot of stuff from here: http://tf3dm.com/ and when push comes to shove, some bare bones proxy modeling (lego style) helps get the point across. -
Re: Scale person in maya?
ZBrush ships with a bunch of human models that should be fine for what you're doing. You can get to them in the Tool section of Spotlight. EDIT: Swear I read ZBrush and not Maya. If you do have ZBrush you could pull in one of those models. Otherwise, it should be fairly trivial to hunt down a free model on somewhere like…
