Hey man, welcome! You've got some cool and original designs for your first post. Vivid colours and plenty of ideas contained within. However, to me they are very hard to read and understand. You've taken these into maximum overdrive which in turn makes it harder to make out their design. The colour and amount of details…
Hi @zuka_banana, not sure if this is too late a reply but the simple answer is that all of your joints contained by the IK (start, middle joints and end effector) all need to be on a single plane, and the pole vector control needs to be on that plane as well for it to not move. This is always the case for three joints…
With 3-6 people you don't need anything complicated, so here's a list of strategies/thinking points I've picked up over the years Rigidly enforce naming conventions, scene structure standards and correct use of source control. If you document nothing else, document this. Set things up so you can guess at the location of…
This is a dream collection. It physically hurts how awesome it is. It has 7 titles that I'm aware of, but that photo below only shows 6. Haikei Gashuu Kusanagi Literally, "the Kusanagi books of background art." It's a book series. The name in kanji is 背景画集 草薙. Amazon.jp Search (entire collection) Contains environment…
Thank you for the info teddybergsman, keep up the good work! Anyway I'm not sure we have understood everything :) Will the 1.4 release be available before beta closes? I think it won't... This workflow is really important for us, it would be nice if we can see it working before Beta ends. I can't understand this point:…
Here's another: Do you like dogs AND hellboy? Here's a bunch of dogs (and a cat) solving supernatural mysteries in their neighborhood. [ame=http://www.amazon.com/Beasts-Burden-Volume-Animal-Rites/dp/1595825134]Beasts of Burden: Animal Rites[/ame] As a nice bonus, Dark Horse has a few issues up for free on their site: LINK…
It's supposed to be a question, because their stance is considerably more defensive than anyone else in this thread. Knowing what direction someone is coming from makes a significant difference to how you recieve their argument, does it not? In a debate over which car to buy, you might weight someone's argument differently…
Thanks wes. From what I've read, that makes sense. 2 channels at better compression. One thing I haven't concluded is whether the Uasset file size is representative of performance gain, as far as changing the compression is concerned. The asset has a source path to the original texture, but it is only there as a way to…
Sprunghunt: Just to clarify, I wasnt saying that I want more duplicates of brink, or duplicates of TF2 or mirrors edge - in fact i hope that there isnt any. I do consider the art directions of those games unique, and innovative- Why ? Because they simply stand out from the throng of whats out there now. And by that you…
@DanglinBob Ahh yeah the names, well 'lazy' because sometimes artists procrastinate doing anything art related or put things off to help themselves improve. 'Vex' was the best word that was small enough to explain an artists distress/trouble/worry/anger. The containment is almost like the inside of our brain, having our…
