Re: LF Adults to help me frame what's going on in my career at the moment
Hmmm, I disagree, speaking from my experience in the MMO field. It's all about the art, it's also an art style that will get you hired at mobile studios, don't discount them. Mobile is the NES of the current generation of kids. Jacque: your survey asks for AAA devs yet lists Kingsisle, we made diffuse only characters… -
Re: Questions: 3D Character Art
Thanks, PattyWhacker. I feel that I need more education in art fundamentals in order to truly reach AAA quality. Not only do I want and need some more solid 2D skills, but I also want to learn the character art pipeline as well as the pipelines of other artists in order to make their jobs easier. I want to learn more… -
Re: Query for one to one mentorship courses for 3D Environment
It's also worth asking, how long have you been working at it? Becoming an amazing artist isn't something that is going to happen overnight. The games that you are talking about trying to match in terms of artistic quality are made by teams of experienced artists. You can't expect to follow a few paid tutorials and start… -
Re: Ths sculpted-cloth killer app?
Man... someday someone will make a plugin that procedurally generates an entire AAA game. 1. Have a few sliders choosing which genre you want (Sci-fi, Fantasy, Post-Apocalyptic, etc). 2. Press Generate button. 3. Profit. I just feel like there are more and more things these days, that make things that used to seen as… -
Re: Xnormal how to increase small detail?
You should have use layers to your advantage, but you didn't so now you suffer the fallout, muahah. Seriously dude, just lasso around the area of the hilt in PS or GIMP or whatever 2D editing program you have and play around with the RG channels. I don't know if Skyrim has Normal strength modifiers, but if it does, you… -
Re: Autodesk to go subscription-based only
Meanwhile I'm seeing more and more artist using Blender in actual professional studios. Even some friends of mine have witnessed the open-source software being used for some of it's tools in AAA studios (especially in the modeling department). :) Honestly, I don't really care. I never had the intention of ever buying Maya… -
Re: Portfolio feedback
Right now you have rather low-res cars with advanced shaders slapped on them and then rendered in a path-tracer. That's not applicable anywhere in games or vfx. I would choose a role and a few companies and target my portfolio to the specific art style and technology that they use. Maybe learn a game engine as environment… -
Re: 3 Valve Announcements coming!
I have been doing a bit of research into doing a nice living room entertainment PC and this sounds perfect. Cant wait to see what the next reveal has in store. My guess its the Hardware Step 1, Provide the Platform Steam OS Step 2, Provide the Hardware Steam Certified Hardware (different tiers and price rangers, something… -
Re: 70's - Future Gentlemen's Club {WIP}
The design suffers too much from game proportions. By this, I mean early on in game development, the geometry engines and movement code wasn't that sophisticated, so all the environments had these areas that were bigger and more open than reality. It also worked because game models tended by be big and chunky. The same… -
Re: I am the only one who notice the stagnation in 3d software development!
You've got to prioritize. Why make some huge thing that will push performance capabilities you don't have? You don't need to do that to get into the business. Look at the "recently hired in AAA, show us your work" thread. I'm sure you could do as well as some of those people. Just make what you can handle with the hardware…
