Re: Giving talks and providing good feedback (face to face).
Yeah their ego's are pretty fragile as students, it's also best to assume they know nothing, ignore they may have just graduated etc. As I've found alot simply don't know what are good resources to learn from. So just pointing them in the right direction can be a big help even without going into an indepth critique; All… -
Re: What is (or was) your biggest problem or obstacle in becoming CG artist?
Early on, it was about the limited choice of free software (being cool in the industry owning/ or napstering 3dsmax/maya weren't viable options on just ambitions for hobbyist game addons). I was bashing cylinders in Milkshape/Breeze together until something of substance arrived for free in which I started doing things by… -
Re: RenderMan - Batch render finishes at 50%
I haven't used Renderman, so I can't answer any specifics here, and I assume you're using Batch Render from the Maya interface. First, do you get any feedback or error in the script editor after the render fails? It may be helpful to locate the renderman log to see what you can learn there. Are you able to solo or disable… -
Re: 3D Modeler for 1Person Survival RPG
bump with new content looking for level designer too! One of the barricade models, a normal part (on the right) and a corner part (left) One of the Spear models, one of the Wolf models, and some nice rocky stones + the Journal (There is also another wolf in the works right now, and another spear!) Some Stones and some… -
Re: zbrush 5 ? when and what
The UI is what business types refer to as a "bar to entry." This is a good business model if you're trying to limit the number of users but not if you're trying to build your user base. If the UI were better (and I don't think there is any custom configuration that can cure all its woes) and you didn't have to trick the… -

Re: Maya 2013 has been Announced! ( as well )
I do not see any other Autodesk Docs advertised in advance of the 2013 release schedule beside Maya... However, Hacking the existing addresses ( substituting the last 2 with a 3 in 2012 ) worked fine. presto chango: http://download.autodesk.com/global/docs/mudbox2013/en_us/index.html Beside the new interface there are some… -
Re: Freedom Locomotion VR Demo
its a nice collection..but not game changing...he's pretty much collected a bunch of locomotion methods that are freely available in Suites like VRTK and all over the VR Dev community.. The main reason most VR app default to teleportation for locomotion is because it is the only sure fire way not to make someone sick..You… -
Re: Maya or Max for Environmental Modeling
I did technically learn Blender first. With Bmesh now there is essentially no qualitative difference between it and the basic the Maya modeling tools. If anything a lot of the Blender interface makes more intuitive sense if you don't know anything else. I think "extrude" and it's E, or S for scale, if you're an English… -
Re: XoliulShader 2 and 3DS MAX 2013
Thanks for your reply, but I disagree. 1. Have you even tried windows 8? Its basically windows 7 with an extra interface. This has nothing to do with the compatibility between max and windows 8. I've read on the shader thread and people are experiencing my problems in windows 7 as well. But as always, once the issue is…
