Adding to already made model, share some knowledge please
Hi guys! Here is concrete example of the topic, i made this model so uvw's are done and textures are done, and suddenly i need to add a wing to it. I have some options, but i don't want to add a wing as another object in engine, since we are very tight on performance, and the only reasonable way is to use 2 shaders on same… -
Re: First semi-successful NM bake with some questions
Some feedback - I'll try not to sound like a perfectionistic, nagging old hag: The UV layout could've been optimised by quite a lot actually. Check the picture here: http://img801.imageshack.us/img801/6889/e00c.jpg The yellow, orange, magenta and rose shells are identical pairs, and thus should be flipped/mirrored and… -
Corporal Hart, Timesplitters fan art redesign
This is a thing I started sketching a while ago, it's been a sort of go to project to open up and push some polygons around when I don't want to deal with my "main" projects. It's a redesign of Corporal Hart from timesplitters 2 in a more modern / realistic style. I don't really do a lot of sci fi so this is a fun change… -

Re: I'm new around here but I'd love to get some feedback on my work.
Hey, Jimi! Welcome. Ok, couple of things that i can say you can improve: You can significantly optimize your low poly models. Some things, like the bullets: you can eliminate some loops at the round part of them, while still mantaining a good silhouette. They are small, and you can get away with less "roundness". You can… -
(Some of) the Weapons of Bioshock 2
Vincent Joyau - along time member of Polycount - recently shared with me some of his creations for Bioshock 2. Primarily he was tasked with creating the weapons you as the player would use in Bioshock 2. Additionally, he was responsible for some attachments and a few modular environment bits. What a perfect combination to… -

Re: Need some advice regarding laptops for 3d work
I've seen laptops for ~1200 euros (and that's including 16% VAT) that come with a better CPU, more RAM (compared to the cheaper Sager model), more HD, etc. Only the graphics card isn't top of the line but rather average (X700s and 6600GT/6800s these days, always a generation behind the current stuff) and the screen is… -
Need some help properly setting up UV's in 3dsMax
Hi there, I got a question on how to go about getting the UV's for a "complex" object to resemble the 3d model as close as possible. As you can see in the picture below the "railing" consists out of 3 parts: 1. The pillars (red lines) 2. Squares to support the pillars (blue lines) 3. Main support ledges (black lines) I… -
