Low Poly Head
Hello Polycounters, I'm still a beginning modeler and doing it as a hobby but aspiring to release a game for Android. I'm hoping to get a bit of critique on the head portion of a model, generally on it's shape and flow. It's a male and has a mask over the lower portion (the mask needs work... I'm still deciding how it… -
Grooming, methods for real time realistic or stylized hair and fur
Hi Have you got any methods for real time realistic or stylized hair and fur that you can share or have knowledge about. Also any techniques for physics influenced hair in Unity, UE4, Lumberyard and so on. Here are some examples… -
Unity 5 & Marmoset
Hi everyone, Got Unity 5, have updated a project from 4.6 which was using skyshop. It seems that Unity 5 does what I need it to do out the bag but just in case as I've not read it anywhere else, is there now no need for skyshop in terms of IBL and the corresponding shaders? On a side note, please view this previous thread… -
Re: Tutorial (request) for anatomically minded shoulder topology?
How are you going about it? If you're box modelling (and it sounds like you are, as it lends itself to the bendy straw shoulder), try strip modelling. Build the major loops from polystrips first, then fill in the gaps adjusting the number and position of edges in your main loops as you go. You'll pick up a few tricks for… -
Re: from the man himself (lol don't take it to heart
[ QUOTE ] About half of that is funny. Someone is rather ill-informed about baseball and french fries, but I guess American's don't have the market cornered on generalizations just yet [/ QUOTE ] Not to mention football. I guess Clese never heard of NFL Europe, LOL. I get a little amused when people start saying Rugby is… -
Re: Trying to fake DOF in scene, not game (help!)
I'm certain you've already done your own searching (as you've said as much and I think I caught you in the comments of a forum post on this subject), but just to confirm that you've tried these things specifically and they have no effect/relation to what you're doing:… -
Re: FBX + Mel Script issue
Not to raise a thread from the depths but I think is too useful to miss out on! For ages ive been trying to get deeper into the use of FBX in the pipeline im creating here, but ive always found some options tucked away just out of reach.. Use this to set previously unavailable commands on an fbx export via command line!… -
Re: PSP Art specification
The PSP runs at 480*272, so 256^2 textures is excessive for a racing game, unless you're going to play it from the driver's perspective, MAYBE. You only have 2MB available for textures, so either downsize them or start cutting. For the PSP you'll pretty much be using diffuse only. If you have a good, optimized engine them… -
Re: Balmora Reborn(Environment)
Those chains could be done with planes and an alpha for the lowest LOD. From 416 triangles to ~8, I think it might be worth it. You seem to have the right ideas, just little understanding of the execution. I think it would help you immensely to look at existing props from games you own and observer their changes in LOD, as… -
Re: Any tips for normal mapping curved surface?
I see your point, I think my problem is that I'm trying to use the normal map to compensate for low poly geometry, which is why it is struggling so much at certain angles. For instance, here is the low poly with a bit more detail (456 tris, vs 240 for the original), and it looks a lot better. I'm guessing that with smaller…
