[ QUOTE ] Oblivion, full stop. From the skill system which encourages 'favoring' all the skills you'll never use, to extremely wasteful assets (go go three-thousand polygon rocks), there's just so much wrong with the game it hurts my brain. It's a pitty because what IS good is good-- especially the expansion. [/ QUOTE ]…
I read this. Then looked at the studios work. Kinda made me look at his article in a different light after that. Also the semi-attack on environment art and env artists hide because they can't do characters or however he worded it is a total douchebag thing to say. Perhaps a long time ago characters were the bread and…
This is standard stuff. It's known as camera tracking. Here is something in blender that can get you introduced to the subject. Almost every fx software/video editing software has this built in. Sometimes it is called Match Moving apparently from this wiki article but I've never heard it called that.…
Thanks guys. Yeah I am just kind of trying to convince myself to put some effort into this as I have a hunch it may be worth the effort. Cool to hear what kind of stuff is possible, even though programming is pretty daunting to me. What you mention @throttlekitty about making tweaks to many characters all at once is…
I Must have read about 20 - 25 books this year, mostly novels though. Prince of Thorns by Mark Lawrence was indeed a fun read. Finished Pierce Brown's "Red Rising Trilogy" - tip: read it before they turn it into a series or a movie. It's a real tour de force in writing. Probably some of the best sci-fi I've read in years.…
No, I forgot to change the brightness. I didn't even know you could do that in color.adobe.com, but it's possible. Changing brightness (so you have a cool dark end and a warm bright end), you can get this: But to get back on what you were talking about, when you ask "how to unify the temperature (or the physical location…
just look for maya tutorials, none of the modeling tools are different. they may be moved around a bit but they are named the same. ultimately the software you use should be what you are comfortable with using. I personally have never seen the appeal of blender other than the fact that is free. but I just typed "maya Lt…
when the shareholders and CEO's pilfer the majority of profits it's not "stretching themselves to thin" to have hired too many people. It's just greed. The game is to make as much money as possible for the people at top, and the artist and other employees are numbers which serve that game. It's not like profits are razor…
UVs are fine. Cutting off the cylinder ends so you can totally straight your trunks/branches might be a good idea but that's not contributing to the bigger problem. Check out this guys channel. He'll help familiarize you with some of these nodes so you can understand what is happening: World-Aligned Textures - UE4…
i'm not a fan of maher, but i am a fan of lewis black... he needs his own show.... just for pure entertainment purposes i was watching some news channel last night, i think it was nbc nightly maybe, i dunno, and they interviewed this one lady at the healthcare march... she was wearing a fluffy uncle sam hat and bitching…
