Re: Early-Late 2000s CGI/Game textures
It is indeed restricted and can't be borrowed with a regular account, probably as a consequence of a seemingly recent action by some publishers. https://www.reddit.com/r/ArchiveDotOrg/comments/16tincu/this_book_is_available_to_patrons_with_print/ There are copies available for as low as 10USD though.… -
Re: LandscapeLayerBlend
The component mask is just to cull out just one channel of the texture or color, essentially taking out a scalar component from a vector3, so for normal maps you don't want to do that because you need all 3 channels to make a normal vector. With just a small view of the material network, I'm not sure what else you're… -
Re: Zbrush - hard edge seams on soft edged low poly mesh ?
@mcgreed no smooth groups in maya, just hard and soft edges. @Battery what he said still stands you should have uvspilts and hard edges at 90deg angles, here is a little script i use that marks all the uv island boundaries as hard edges. string $objList[] = `ls -sl -o`;string $uvBorder[];string $edgeUVs[];string… -
Re: You have 15 seconds to comply
I was thinking about this the other day. My 3 year old is starting to get into movies now. Mostly stuff like Brave and other cartoons. But he really wants to go see spider-man. Going to wait a bit on that one. But when I was a little bit older than my own son my parents let me watch pretty much anything. I was big into… -
Re: Trying Blender
that does not work except for a subset of the tool functions. for instance if you want to have a hotkey for each T/R/S manipulator from the ctrl+spacebar manip mode you can not use rightclick to make keys. its really nasty once you have to dig into the hotkey interface system to figure out how to make the hotkeys. the… -

Hip Hop is Dead [UE5 Remaster] [WIP]
This is a dust off / remaster of an old piece that's about ten years old by now (barf, time, why?). It was originally done in UE4 with Quixel Suite for the texturing. This project is special to me for a variety of reasons, but it definitely needs a facelift to stay in the portfolio. I'm mainly looking to improve the… -
Ditching Geometry Caches for Maya-to-Unreal Lattice Rigs
Wanted to drop a quick pipeline piece we did solving a data-bloat problem. We needed a reusable, highly deformed eye rig setup for a stylized project, but relying on geometry caching to bake out the lattice deformations was killing our data foot print. We’ve shared a quick, high-level teaser of the rig over on LinkedIn if…
