Re: How do you deal with a client that doesn't pay?
Please do this. If there is no other way you might have to sue the client, in this case getting legal advice might be necessary and it comes with financial risks. Just a crash course for legal actions - keep in mind it varys from country to country (maybe even from state to state in places like the US). Basically there… -
Re: What Are You Working On? (3D) 2026
The crowd judjed my vehicle set and found it out-of setting. I acknowdleged mixing a bit of my Spellbound aesthetic into the world of TC, before getting baked again and starting a more WW1-driven set. As reality provides us with ample reference, in IRL conflicts tech from different periods often gets mixed together,… -
Re: How has your Life Changed in the Past Decade?

XBox HD-DVD Deal
Hey guys, I don't know if you saw this deal at Best Buy for this week, but they have a deal where you get the Heroes Season 1 on HD-DVD for free when you buy the HD-DVD player for the 360. That's $100 free. Then you qualify to get 5 free HD-DVDs through that other rebate deal. I just picked this up today and thought I'd… -
Re: Unreal vs Octane as path tracing renderer , AOV baker ?
Heavy instancing of static meshes should be pretty trivial with nanite, not sure how unreal 5 deals with big crowds =X About more realism I think the demos unreal put speaks for themselves ; I think about the matrix "realtime immersive short film" or even the very first tech demo showcasing lumen & nanite running dosens of… -
Re: Jeep CJ66 - Unreal Engine 4 - Custom Normals - Substance Designer [WIP]
At Cold Iron we had our technical artist add in a mask that gives us more options for mesh decals. We can now dictate what is metal and what isn't, so we can have a divot on a surface with a metal screw in it. This is possible with the stock limitations of the UE4 mesh decal implementation, you would just have to float a… -
Re: Sketchbook: Tits
More updates, Currently taking some online drawing class from Watts atelier of the arts, I've never actually properly learned drawing so figured it was the right time to try. I'm working on drawing fundementals II right now. I've also went a couple time to do live drawing/painting in montreal, I went to the 3h long pose so… -
Re: RadCity: UE5 mid-poly assets
@fredriklars thank you! I have a set of decals (with POM) planned for the terrain, I'll try to add them after painting the landscape or in next stages and see how it looks @aumramaram well it takes me a few hours up to a day tops for most complex stuff until I go to texturing since I skip high/low/baking and just model the… -
Re: Learning Blender and Texturing
Today I'm hitting a serious roadblock with Blender, that could be a deal-breaker. As you can see in the video below, I'm just trying to sculpt a stroke and it's freezing the software for over 10 seconds. The Alpha used is 300x300 pixels, and as you can see in the panel on the right it isn't even fully utilizing my machine,… -
Re: Help with textuing basics
I think it depends on the engine you are using, but for UDK I'd make the broken parts and oil/blood spills into decals. So you have a clean base material and can decide where to put the decals. Sometimes they are a nice option to cover seams between tiled surfaces and further break up the monotony. Decals should be handled…
