hi there thanks for the input :) I get your point of the storage of floats. But the way you edit these vertex values are API related. For example I already need to 'normalize' those values in the VS because maya doesn't do it on its own (which is logic for colors). Even then, problem arise: Imagine grass is driven by red…
@Rima it has multi-res layer support now, and i have been sculpting on quad meshes so perhaps something there has changed. It seems like the intended workflow is that you use the voxel modeling as you would use sculptris pro in zbrush (or dynamesh) when you are figuring out forms. Then you can retopo (it has lots of…
Recall barrels being 'shot out' due to worn rifling then immediately switched with a replacement when in operation (bursts of fire) for an extended period but as long as the weapon was serviceable i.e. able to perform it's task for which it was designed and manufactured, then despite routine wear and tear - scratched…
Day 35 Not dead yet. Still working on this project from time to time (amount of days in the title is an amount of actual days when I worked on this project). What’s new: - Customization system is almost done (in-game materials and modules tweaking). This feature required to remake all internal architecture of the vehicle,…
Johnny Could you explain your workflow please mate. I'm trying to replicate and I'm still getting jaggy's. In dynamesh I'm: 1. Masking area. 2. Polygrouping masked area. 3. Group loops. 4. Having to Hide section to group together grouploops and other section, to give 2 parts. 5. Unhiding all. 5. Selecting Groups in…
Oh! YES! throttlekitty I understand. great thinking, I will try to replicate it in 3ds max. So I can brake it and then open the UVs. Thanks for your kind words musashidan. One more questions that I through out there, I have this question in the back of my head for really long and a few days ago I even tried to research…
EXCELLENT start with the texturing man... As stated, I hope the tri-count isn't too high...especially with the coil there. In order for it to be that smoothly rounded, it must be quite dense atm... I think that for now, the only other critique I have to offer, is for that piece of tape on the recoil handle (if that's even…
@victorhz: I did not have a specific femal person's face in mind for this to replicate. At best, it's been Paula Patton as reference, but mostly looking for general facial proportions before I went out of my way to make specific modifications. More studies will come, definitely. ==Retopologization Question== Do you guys…
I enjoy 3d films, it gives me reason to get up and go to the cinema again. I'm not really a fan of the whole cinema experience i.e. watching a film in a chair that I don't find too comfortable in a room full of other people who decide to make noises/get up/bring crying babies (not that I have anything against these…
Technically, no. Traditional sketching and digital sketching are fairly similar, the only different being getting value in a base sketch is a little more of a subtle art than it is for the digital arena. Digital and traditional painting are almost identical sans the use of filters/post effects, but otherwise nigh…
