Re: Paint vertex normals in 3dsmax
I write tools for a living and I have an opinion on non-programmers using robots to make tools. - just use the robot to build the thing. The result will be 100% ass from an engineering perspective but that's not the point - Robots are excellent at prototypes / proof of concepts. The ethical concerns around robots writing… -
Re: The most astounding fact [MISLEADING TITLE -mods]
Eh i think that's not where the problem is, in fact, i think space exploration actually does a lot of good things, it's just that people have no idea just how many things that they use every day, was maybe direct result of space eploration. Space exploration is a good thing, it's never bad thing to seek out and explore new… -
fast way to bake AO maps in maya
hi, for some time now I have been looking for a fast and convienent way of baking ambient occlusion maps in maya, because I want to use them as base for my textures. however apparently I have to set up the AO shader, which is not that much work ok, but still annoying if you have various objects and since a friend of mine… -
Re: This is the last straw with Maya.
Sometimes I miss Nendo for fast poly modeling :( Wish it had been developed further for sub-divs.. Was lightning fast as a box modeler back in the day. So damn intuitive and accessible. I tested Modo back in 301, and while I know its a powerful package, I hated the workflow and UI during the trial. Just felt like it was… -
Re: [WIP] Vampire Librarian Character Bust
since i decided to do a full body anyway, i did some work on the shoes today. i looked up some victorian era shoes and pasted them in my reference board. i don't want to overcomplicate the design so i'm pretty happy with the result! last things to sculpt for the lady is her hair strands and some final refinements. then… -
Zbrush Fast Sculpting Brushes
I made my own custom brushes that I'm using for some time now to quickly sculpt in Zbrush. Mainly for using the Sculptris Pro feature but also for the default sculpting. I made them now available for free here: https://gumroad.com/l/NTPi Or Artstation (1 dollar):… -
Re: How fast should I be at generating assets?
I could probably model and texture that in about seven hours, possibly less, depending on motivation and stress, etc. Two days isn't bad at all! It's worth keeping in mind that creating quality art is, of course, our top priority. As artists, however, we're also exposed to the other aspect of the business: profit margins.… -
Re: My sculpting diary
What's your goal right now with these? Like the anatomy topic has been repeated quite a few times and you acknowledged that in your previous post so I was wondering what your objective is with these speedsculpts? As far as I can see, you hit a wall really fast. If you compare the first post with the last one they are quite… -
Re: SDF. what do you think of it?
Thanks guys for interesting comments . it's of topic but last fall after years of polishing Designer fx maps and creating procedural approaches I suddenly found how actually better my work had been when it all was just manual, taste and intuition driven. Zbrush sculpts and coloring , hand painted textures I did in some… -
What do I need for a fast Game Dev workflow
I have been reading some forums here on polycount on what to get. I use the Xoliul Shader for my character modeling. So far I bought 8 Gigs of Ram now having a total of 14 Gigs of ram. However that did not solve my issue for fast workflow. I have read that I need good GPU more than anything since I'm using the Xoliul…
