I've also heard good things about 3D Coat though I've never tried it. I have used Mudbox 2009 but I hate the way it handles UVs. UVs outside of 0-1 space are treated as new textures rather than tiling. Bodypaint is kind of cool but very expensive, IIRC I didn't like the camera navigation. I think newer versions of Max have…
Not really into the I.P., but I found this video, pretty cool. http://kotaku.com/5838828/resistance-3-really-captures-the-details-of-geek-beards-beautifully
So I brought this up in the Steam SD4 community thread on Jerc's DOTA2 Character Creation Template guide, but I thought I'd field the question here where more experienced artists might catch it: It appears the Dota2_hero shader isn't working on my home computer. The substance and graph and example FBX all load fine, but…
OK. My Bad. Wes hasn't replied but I should of looked further .. that atlassing tool for Substance Designer has already been released. https://forum.allegorithmic.com/index.php?topic=5840.0 Edit: He did reply shortly after with all the details.
So Epic just announced that UDK is coming to web browsers and flash everywhere! This announcement is huge if you didn't already know that. The possibilities that this will open up is amazing. http://kotaku.com/5846513/unreal-engine-3-now-works-in-flash-yes-the-same-flash-thats-in-your-browser-facebook/gallery/1…
Will jailbreaking make it an iphone 5? I am unsure what your post is about... http://gizmodo.com/5846548/whats-so-great-about-the-iphones-new-camera And adam has produced some sexy stuff with his older model iphone, so this can only be a good thing!
I'm pretty sure xNormal's (from 3.17.5 and up) bakes are now synched with Blender 2.58(or was it 2.59) or higher. see this: http://www.polycount.com/forum/showpost.php?p=1355044&postcount=2161 and this: http://www.polycount.com/forum/showpost.php?p=1375390&postcount=583 No baker that I know of is synched with UDK :(
On the one hand the whole thing is blown out of proportion and taken to a needlessly petty level. But on the other hand this is exactly the kind of behavior which you should be put into a pillory for and have garbage thrown at you. It's disrespectful, stupid, childish, and wholly undermines the concept of customer care;…
Not sure if it's been linked yet, but here is a sneak peek for the Collector's edition art book. Preordered the collectors edition today. Cannot. Wait. http://kotaku.com/5845363/some-concept-art-from-the-elder-scrolls-v-skyrim/gallery
$300 for a 6-core i7 is a great deal, http://www.microcenter.com/product/437203/core_i7-5820k_33_ghz_lga_2011_v3_tray_processor I'm expecting to spend about $900 on everything but the GPU and SSD I'm reusing. Also CPUs aren't much of a bottleneck for games, if you are waiting for the next hardware release, you'll…
