I like the idea of using a static camera, so you kinda get a time-lapse WIP video for free! I definitely think that renderhj's suggestion of just grabbing the viewport is a good one, personally I don't want to wait for a render every time (especially if I have settings set up for high-quality light tracing etc.), usually a…
Finally got around updateing my portfolio. So here is some more Inscryption art. The game released in october and the response is very good, here you go if you want to check it out: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1092790/Inscryption/ The Judge, Jury and Executioner or Scale, Candles and Bell. You will find them all on…
Maybe there is a way to do it but the video above looks like the method I am using. You can also use spotlight in ZB to paint the picture you posted onto the model's head/face. Just load the image into spotlight and go for it. I dont use the uv plugin in ZB for anything else than fine detail on models because 3D apps have…
Try unbiased renders like Octane and Arion or Maxwell, too. GPU renders have a lot of advantages over old renders like Vray and Mental Ray. Maya is great software, but a lot of artists prefer Modo for its interface and abilites. I prefer Maya, even though it is nice to support an underdog! Toolbag is kinda the solution for…
Get on it ASAP! It could be tempting to wait and see what the teachers will tell you but if you're planning to get into animal logic you need to be on top of your game. I'm currently still a student and I held learning zbrush for awhile, only to realize I should've started earlier. It took me about 2-3 months of making…
still would be nice for it to know via the UI of the uv tools. but the maya interface does notify you of the active tool, and if no tool is active gives you qucik access to the last used tool. @nightshade, your app should be able to check what the current active context is with the checkCtx command which is available in…
I think the problem with the Android is putting the OS on all these different phones, thereby creating a huge variation in hardware, OS versions, custom firmwares and with different button interfaces. It creates a huge headache for app developers, especially games.. you set yourself up for buggy apps. I think thats why the…
That's because those are other mesh groups and are being treated as different objects for texturing purposes. You won't be able to select them from the group you're currently working in. Click on the group you'd like to work with in 3DO, or use the dropdown selection from the DDO interface to switch between groups and…
I like where you guys are getting at! first i thougt of the same things... plus a few extras but that would be silly: - a special item in shop for one person (the miner) - point capture time..... - random drop time... BUT THIS: the courier crystal carrier. this is the real thing i had in mind. A quick addition to the…
remakes are definately quite not legal :) , spicing up the old game with new graphics cannot be stopped though, and there's quite some room to do so: a character in the original was mostly optimized down heavily to one single 128x256 texture, the artificial limitation is at 256x256 textures, but you can use as many…
