Ah, took a look at the movies on a friend's PC. Looks to me like dynamic lightmaps... every triangle of every mesh has it's own unique UV space, and the scene is rendered every frame into a set of lightmaps. This is cool because you can also do bounce lighting and soft shadowing... but it can be uncool if you're lighting a…
gun porn was just called 'Black' and the style is so different between this and HL2 I wouldn't even come close to calling those comparable. Gears, yeah, and they did a great job I wonder what Bethesda plans to do with this.. the other 2 were over 3/4ths view right? I'd really like to see this first person like oblivion,…
NoSeRider: Was that a sentence? Uh... people attend the workshop to learn? And to do more art... and to meet like-minded people... does that answer your question? bearkub: Yeah, I'll be in SF from the 6th to the 12th ... whereabouts are you? I woulda probably met up with Daz over there, but ironically he'll be in Scotland…
Multiple space groups for the spine torso/head. So I don't have to counter animate anything. Ik stretchy legs or some form of knee correction control so I'm not fighting Ithe IK. Bend bow controls for arms legs, you can get so much more appeal with a simple curves out of a pose with a simple bend bow. If the rig comes with…
you can just look at it in a different way ie , if you no longer think it's awesome , then you must have improved in that yuor technique is better and you have improved your critical eye by a certain degree. I am at a reasanable standard, but still hate my wpork on the whole. I just accept that and keep on working I have…
Cheers for the feedback Mike, here's a update on my sculpting. Need to add some gnarled-ness to the roots at the moment and break up the lines on them. The third image shows off the sculpt the best (BRP + AO) and the 1st is what my low poly is looking like, much better form I think due to the sculpting but it may need a…
Simplyfi the presentation, get rid of all the stuff that is cluttering the images, both thumbnails then the weird frame in every pic with the logo. Just have your name and your email subtle in one corner, thats it. When it comes to the artwork your best work is the gothic window, that purple rock pile and the weird feather…
Wow. I always imagined you guys playing Dota 2 together at lunch or something. I never thought you guys wouldnt know each other. lol Any hoo I bought the beta key and have access to all three beta weekends (according to the ad.) I missed one weekend so I am waiting for one that they are going to have on: March 8th - March…
Have you ever wondered how much a game generate in revenue on launch day? We sure have and with launch day coming closer we got a (hopefully) great idea. Why not put up a site where people can see much a indie developer really earn on launch day? So we did... And on the 6th of September you can follow the launch of Linkies…
Morning sketch: 2D9 Not feeling so well this morning, but hey nothing like a little art to lift the spirits. I have been seeing quite a few badass mechs around lately and wanted to try my hand at it. This isn't my first but it has to be like my 3rd or 4th attempt at it. When I completed it I named it 2D9 because it felt to…
