Re: Term 1 - Development Projects Progress
Thanks a lot for the detailed feedback, really appreciate you taking the time. @fredriklars That’s fair criticism on the blockout.

Re: recently submitted art tests
On your alley scene: I think higher contrast lighting would help it out a lot. I actually just did an alley scene a while back and got some excellent crits on lighting. In cities, there are a lot of orange hued lights and fluorescent lights that give off a white-green hue. You could use some orange lights off camera, and… -

Re: Terminology, Polygon/Face
This is a tricky matter. I can bring the 3ds Max experience. In Max you got two geometry types for polygonal modeling: Editable Mesh and Editable Poly Editable Mesh is the simplest and fastest type as it has a simpler database to keep connections between elements. They are: * Vertexes are uniquely defined by a position in… -

Re: Specular map master thread - The hidden art behind the awesomesauce.
Personally I create my Spec/Gloss from my diffuse. That is not to say that i use the values from my diffuse. just desaturating the diffuse is usually totally the wrong way to go, and gets really crappy results. just because paint is white doesn't mean it reflects 100% of the light that hits it or that dark dirt has no…
