Re: Using maya as a game editor for environment art
A useful analogy might be found in animation, they build all the sets in maya as low poly proxies they call them, they're a reference file for a high poly mesh + textures stored elsewhere. They build out everything like this, set, props and characters. Then, someone assembles them all into a single scene file, which the… -
Re: [Blender Add-on] Smart UV Tool – Fast, Clean UVs for Dense Meshes
This is the move some p.o.s. are doing over at blender, think of it as, you(anyone) get no money cause somehow everyone in the world seems to be siding with being or becoming broke as sites everywhere are allowing "these people" to flourish without repercussions, strange. The topic that points it out that the entire… -
Re: Learning Blender and Texturing
Hello ! My setup is highly customized, in part inspired by habits from both Max and Maya while also keeping it compatible with Blender unique systems (like the off-hand manipulation discussed above). I started by first using the default keys and navigation for a while, then modified them manually to have Maya-style… -
Re: The Bi-Monthly Environment Art Challenge | May - June (102)
Hi! Nice updates! Thanks for reminding me of the challenge :sweat_smile: @BillyJackman I like personality it got, with the frame looks like it has a grin. If you intended to work on this some more, I think some dynamism/ folds in the hanging scroll would enhance it more. And perhaps some more material definition, so it… -
Re: artifacts appearing on overlapping parts during baking
Hi! What does the mesh shading of the lowpoly look like? Is it the same on all parts using the same texture? Are the stacked shells oriented in the same direction? I would expect the final shading (normal map applied) to look off for each part that's reusing texture but that has mesh shading that's different than the part… -

Time for some PC upgrades, need some recommendations.
I've been using the same PC for nearly 3 years now, it was built as a budget PC for my game art studies at university and it holds its own fairly well. It is now, however, showing its age and limitations a little with some of the freelance work I've been getting and I want to start upgrading it piece by piece. My current… -
Re: How are you actually handling AI-generated mesh cleanup before engine handoff?
The almost funny things is (also in general): When using some "result" from some AI, which in fact is some masterpiece of software developement but that's another story .. then why does one think that "some artists" are able to fix the garbage by "some script" or do have to do some manual repairs. Isn't the problem that… -
[WIP] - stylized character, could use some help to understand what to improve for future sculpts
I've been playing around with blender for about 2 years now but never realy did anything seriously, just trying out tools and playing around with it. Over the past few weeks ive become more and more intrested to create solid character sculpts. Ive done a few before but never finished one since ive alway run into techincal… -
Re: really need some feedback on final demo...
part of the reel reminded me of the intro from dungeon keeper or the intro to baldur's gate (but not in a good way). the best way to evaluate your own work is by comparing it to the current standard and currently yours isn't up to the same standard, the second best thing to do is come on here and ask because 99% of these…
