Hey guys, how ya doin’? It’s been more than a week that I haven't posted here. But the progress on the environment has been good since my last post and I think it is time to say what I’m doing. This past week I focused more on texturing and creating a “texture palette”, so when modeling everything it would be easier to fit…
@iam717 I appreciate the insights. The glitchy side to side movement is a bug, or rather a fault of the the AI code that I'll clean up a bit later. Basically they are deciding where to go every 1/4 second and if they are already locked to a decision they will then override this - it's order of operations needs tuned but…

also remember that the distance between your support edge loops and the actual edge of your model will have an impact on the bake and the smoothness of the corners, so it could be worth playing with that. if you want to play around with normals in maya, just select your object in object mode, hold shift and press and hold…
Well its not so much that one passage in particular got me confused... I dont think its written very well for NEWBS, but ... its a complicated prog.. I expect some learning curve. My problem lies in the fact that Im not getting the results I expect when I try things. So thats why my rather general "Help with UVs" thread…
Yeah so there are basically a few different methods right: 1. Use averaged normals on your entire mesh, no hard edges or custom edited normals. Using a cage or not has no bearing on your baked result(unless you manually edit your cage, which works differently per app, hand editing the cage/envelope in Maya for instance…
Saidin: Fyi the vanishing points of objects aren't always the exact same unless you are doing an orthographic projection, or they are all in the same plane and at the same orientation. So the vanishing points of the road and the chair should generally line up, but everything else is pretty well on its own. Indian Boy:…
First of all allow to extend a big thank you to everyone who had anything to do with the contest. It was a perfect excuse to get together and do some art. Yes the loose rules and big time frame were awesome. Tbh I hardly imagine myself taking part in a purely environment contest from now on :) Although having the time…
What an odd coincidence. I just moved to Seattle and live with two gay guys too! Unfortunately they don't have a lot of female friends though... so that's quite unnerving. But hey, less distractions while I'm getting on my feet right now - and from my progress so far, I am not complaining (much). I actually work from home…
Hi Cyrael, I am an animator :) I have several suggestions and tips, some of which have probably already been mentioned. But let me start by saying that I think this is a pretty good animation and with some small changes and polish could be a strong piece for you. Always use reference! It makes your life easier, and gives…
