Re: Modelling for CG Films?
![[SF]Three9](https://polycount.com/themes/polycount/design/default-avatar.gif)
yea Benji I hear you :( the two different smoothing types that Maya has gets different results, one always better than the other, but both usually end up with some stretching around the seams. I didn't really notice this on the characters for the film, probably because they were stylized, but on the tree house i made for… -
Re: [Riot Art Contest] - Soraka
Reply by refraction · · Home› Contests & Challenges Archives› Riot Art Contest› Riot Art Contest - IllustrationHaha idk what you mean by bananas, hope you feel better! K trying to figure out some colours, shes cool blue/purple colour so I figure she should be against a warm background. All the current splash screens for her have pretty simplified backgrounds so I'm going to simplify too. One of the legit splash screens also has her… -

SCORCHER AND MERCENARY UPDATE: I'm thinking that the scorcher is pretty much where I plan on keeping it. I have an emissive map for some hot embers on the end of the branches, but I'm still getting those to work in Unreal. Matinee is a huge pain, but I plan on getting a recording of the animation out of the UE4 engine at… -

Re: Does music hinder you or help you focus while working?
Depends. Instrumental or foreign music works sometimes because my mind then doesn't end up focusing on the lyrics. Mostly helps with boring tasks where my I need something to soak up idle brain capacity - however I notice I'm more tired when I listen to music all day long, so unconscious parts of the brain still react to… -
Re: How Can I Take this Further?
Ok I've just spent time in the polycount texturing wiki, and I've developed a war plan. - Pick a logical color scheme (as outlined in the DOTA art bible pdf) - Bake a AO pass with my high poly, decimated .objs - Bake a Point Light pass on the high poly .objs - Hue Shift the Shadows and Highlights on these bakes away from… -
Re: [Dillema] CrazyBump epic win, max, xnormal fail??
I think Spleen is trying to say that it is perhaps good that somone can make use of other software to make the same sort of thing and EQ (Who has a very valid point that I'm sticking with) says that optimization is better. Studios work on deadlines, uh hu, and they need to get stuff done quick so they want people who can… -
Re: IK, FK, or blend for 1st person animation?
I'm digging up this thread because I would like to make the best choice. I see what you guys are saying about the parenting unparenting for reloading, but you only need to parent the weapon to one hand for FK right? So the unparented hand could be the reloading hand. Can FK be jittery with proper animation? Or are they… -
Re: Cartoon Rig squash/stretch
Yeah, if you have any patterns it's going to be noticeable when it stretches. I'm sure there's a way around this...I wonder if you can do some kind of squash/stretch on the UVs...anyway, if the part doesn't move too much it'll be okay, but if it does it might look stretched. One way to fix this would be to have loops close… -

There is an image of a face with colour coded/numbered regions. on the right is a graph showing the range of gloss and reflectance values measured for those regions. where "m" = glossiness (linear). the value of 0.028 is…
