Re: Zeitgeist (the movie)
[ QUOTE ] Bankers try to get the most money out of their customers and make the most money off the money their customers have given them to hold for safe keeping.

Re: Sketchbook: Curry
It's hard to say because I think that everyone has different skills and opinions. As far as I go, I have loved my stay here for the past 2 years, and have seen my skills grow tremendously thanks to my classes. And recently the school has aquired some amazing teachers. However, I think that it is safe to say that all… -
Re: Bad Neighbourhood
Did your teacher say you had to build a low-spec scene? To be honest, your teacher doesn't seem very good. Has your teacher ever worked in the industry in the last 8 years? Even PSP games and DS games support 100,000 tris in a scene; I just don't understand how building such a simple scene can build any skills for… -
Re: Dumbest mistakes you've made in 3d?
- Working on some bullshit assignment for university where we had to model an entire castle and hillside in 100,000 tris in one seamless, watertight mesh. About half-way through, I mistakenly converted the entire model to tris and saved it. Took me a long time to get it back to nice neat quads. - Destructive editing. - Oh,… -
Re: Photogrammetry for large scale environments
I honestly think photoscanning might be the way to go but that's just me. You could scan multiple buildings with one camera it would just take sometime. I don't know much about Reality Scan, however for Photoscan the alignment could be fixed if you edit the original images to the extent where they're properly exposed and… -

Re: Change rig after animation has already started?
In a game studio (or any CG production really) something as drastic as a skeleton refactor is not supposed to happen, because it would break a huge amount of things. The preproduction period is precisely here to avoid that. And then these things get locked in for the duration of the project. If such a change is really… -
Re: High Poly Models and Normal Mapping
Here's an example of a "high poly" model. Basically, for normal-mapping, you use subdivided (Meshsmoothed) polygon geometry, and use a plugin or application to render the meshsmoothed version of the model down onto an "in-game" resolution mesh. Between 3000-7500 polys sounds about right for the in-game model, but there's… -
Re: Thanks Quixel
I think the polycount is about 100.000 for the whole thing so kind of a medium poly count. But all the details is from DDO generated normal map except for some of the deep scratches on the wood gun carrige. I wish i had left that to DDO thouggh as i think i over did some of it in Zbrush. Waiting for DDO 1,9 wich should… -
Re: Steampunk Sub...Portfolio Review project WIP
@Aim- I totally hear you on the hull shape still. I am using the thrusters for propulsion just because I had envisioned a water intake on the sides- which will go inside to a coal fed boiler, and then out as forced hot water maybe? Since it's Steampunk, I thought go imagination rather then totally logical. I will work on…
