Re: Baking Floating Geometry with Maya's Turtle Renderer
Development on both Beast and Turtle continue, as they're basically sister products and share a lot of underlying code (liquidlight, it used to be called). What you want to do OP is make sure all the input meshes are selected (all the hp bits, including floaters), and select the LP as the output. The important part is the… -
Re: HELP! Need to make a 3d Model for my Grandfather
Yeah, you're not going to get very far trying to make 3D models with 2D applications. You could try this http://www.123dapp.com/catch but you'd need way more than 3 pictures. Or you could learn a 3D program like Blender. I'd recommend Blender since it's free and there's no need to pay thousands of dollars to model 1 chair. -
Re: How is 3D-scanning useful for 3D-artists?
To me the most important feature would definitely be ease of acquisition and automation. That is to say, not having to stitch different views together as a post process, and not having to manually calibrate anything.

Re: Watch Dogs: Holy shit.
I remember watching a series of 5-6 videos on the old Autodesk AREA site, can't seem to find them anymore. But in the video one of the developers showed how they did the faces for the crowds in one of the Assassin's Creed games (can't remember which one, but probably Brotherhood or the second one) but they basically had 1… -
