Re: Is DaZ bitter?
Actually its more along the lines of - Irish - drunken tricksters (possibly ira) Welsh - incomprehensible sheep shaggers Scottish - quick tempered penny pinchers English - snobbish elitist backstabbers There's an explanation for the stereotypes in the history of each, but essentially its a load of rubbish in most cases.… -
Re: splitting off model bits without seams: maya 8.5
We did it on a bunch of bond games ( http://www.daz-art.com/games_8.htm ), but it's not ideal. As others have said, it isn't too much effort on the code side to just store the verts that transform. The 'faceplate' system worked OK for us, but its clearly much more of a headache than not. One thing that really irked me is… -
Re: somehting to pimp
Illusions - the black inc effect was 67 hand made frames. I started with just a black bar then used Liquify in photoshop and very slowly, with a large low opacity brush "molded" the flows of ink downward. The white dot was done the same way. Then using After Effects I brought it all togather. The menu will take you to… -
Re: How in the world do I camera match photos of cars? [Pic related]
There are ways to make the camera matching simple-ish actually. What is used in the image you show I think is the camera match feature in 3Ds max: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9cCVWcvgWno For it you need a base model that you did based on blueprints and measurements and then after matching it you adjust it to fit. What… -
Re: Best software for weight painting?
To be fair, 3ds Max hasn't entirely languished in weighting features. It now has a Geodesic Voxel Solver and a Heat Map Solver. http://help.autodesk.com/view/3DSMAX/2020/ENU/?guid=GUID-97016957-BCD6-469B-8AC6-776B2C1334B7 I haven't skinned in a while, so there's probably more including third party scripts/plugins...?… -
Re: Reallusion Character Design - Mythcons
Reply by Mythcons · · Home› Contests & Challenges Archives› Reallusion's 3D Character Design Contest 2016This is not the best example (unfinished!), but the hair is produced by replicating a strip of UV'd polygons and arranging them in the style of the hair I'm trying to achieve. The hair texture is one I found on Google Images and modified so that it's white. By loading an opacity make, you can fade out the edges so that it… -
Re: Monthly Community Noob Challenge October 2013 (12)
Hey guys, So this is my approach to getting the scale on things. I took the door, then went and measured one IRL, and rounded it up to 7ft by 3ft, then I grabbed a ruler and worked out how big things are based off that. Hurrah for maths. (why I worked them out in feet I don't know, I was taught metric.) Some things are a… -
Re: So, Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light eh...?
Mr Odium has a talent for immense hyperboly, but there is a reasonable point there somewhere. I certainly wouldn't call them the worst by any stretch, but I'm not a great fan of the character designs in Tomb Raider either. There's no question that that's a very well executed model but there are a quite a few things that… -
Re: First Z-Brush Sculpt
in reality eye whites are not very close to white, they tend to be on the pink side. In addition as people age the eye whites tend to get darker. Notice how dark and pink the eye whites are. I would also blur the iris detail, it will look much better. Seems to me that the ears in particular could use at least 10 more… -
Re: Is Modo really that amazing?
Last I tried them the spline tools in Modo seemed a bit primitive coming from Max, though I never delved too deep into them... iirc there's also no selection memory, so if you have nothing selected and rotate sometimes the camera will fly off into nowhere instead of going based on the last thing that was selected. Other…
