But back on topic, love the direction you’re heading in. I agree you tend to want more moody lighting for a horror game. I would suggest revisiting the night lighting, but taking care to add more fill lights. The purple is too monochromatic, which tends to induce visual boredom very quickly. You could try adding moonlight,…
Hey all, made a fictional golf course environment to test new features of Unity HDRP terrain and lighting. Whole environment from blockout to final is done in 18 hours, used Unity Essentials and free assets. Most time spent on Unity forums figuring out warnings and errors related to terrain, hdrp shaders and art directing…
People and attitudes like this are why I feel I sometimes don't mesh with certain types of game artist. People who have a problem with symbolism are the kind i would except to bring a dragon to an art show. Granted I don't have the resume to crit anyone for trying to make "cool stuff", but if you're gonna dismiss symbolism…
Oh man. We've all been here... The game industry is a unique place to be in. It's all about having passion and doing it because you love it. We all want to get paid to do what we love, but it takes a lot of hard work and dedication. You could argue that it may not be work if you love it, but that's up to you. Eat, sleep…
Yeah.. when I read this thread I saw it more as general advice to the community inspired by a reaction to a certain user, not so much a big personal attack against that user. I think you guys are misinterpreting Adam's intentions. I agree with the OP for sure. It's easy to get worked up when someone lays a harsh critique…
as far as I know there's very very very few scholarships for non US students - actually there may be none. You can apply but if you don't cut it you will have to take some sort of test (GRE) which has nothing to do with your subject of study but seems to be required to determine if you're ready to do a graduate study e.g.…
Looks good from here. Bit too dark in some renders. You should work on emphasizing the focal points of your characters like the face and create some contrast between the metal/fleshy bits ( on the predator in particular) using value/hue/tonal shifts... I know this is very general, and I'm sure someone else will be able to…
Looks awesome, but after a test trial it seems that, perhaps it's just me, wonky. It's offset and splat features don't really work with anything but stoneface. The specular maps don't really come out the way you want it to and the substance editor just has a 0-1 scale like you're manually editing levels in photoshop, but…
Well my plan to keep this updated as a way to motivate myself didn't work did it :( The Ludus has been abandoned because I just can't get the terrain right, I've tried using CryEngine terrain, terrain with geometry parts and now purely geometry and I'm still not happy with it. If anyone has any suggestions on that it would…
okay here is the latest update and tbh im so ticked off. really not liking environments, and really wanting this to be over so i can do character stuff. Wrong attitude i know but after the crash my drive has just disapeared. Looking bare i know, after following some advice i have decided to complete all my assets and then…
