Re: approach to techy stuff
I keep meaning to write a script to do this, for both Max and Maya. As EQ says it's only really useful if you're unwrapping lots of things at once. These days I find that most of the "big name" apps all have fairly comparable UV tools. Max is lagging behind in some areas (namely failing to incorporate UV editing as a true… -
Re: Char: James Anderson
Thanks guys! @CheapAlert: Yeah, Outlaws was the coolness. i might try *actually installing* the game. That might help, at least I could look at the movies of their 3d models I guess. I'm not necessarilly trying to duplicate him exactly though. @hawken: Thanks! That's encouraging to hear. I agree with you on the optimizing.… -
Re: XCOM
A spiritual successor to a survival horror rpg fps that was up there with deus ex in terms of gameplay, and then have the successor stripped from all kinds of survival horror, rpg and replability. Ken himself even intended for bioshock to be deeper, with a monster ecology(which sister/daddy is the remains of), weapon… -
Re: Logo Pimp
Wow. Thank you guys! Such a lot of feedback. I don't usually get this much feedback on my 3D models, I never expected so much on one simple logo. Okay, for comments on the logo itself, I like being pretentiously clever. I'm actually quite pleased that several of you realized what it was I was going for with it. I… -
Re: Pierce Brosnan - "Goodbye 007"
[ QUOTE ] I am making the point that Scots is a slur that is so commonplace that noone thinks of it as a slur. [/ QUOTE ] Ror: Hmm, I don't know about that. I wonder if I took an opinion poll of all of Scotland, and asked if they were offended by being called a "Scot", what results I'd find. I know for a fact that none of… -
Re: [FINISHED] Medieval Monastery - Environment diorama
Hi again! I've had some time to produce some props over the past two weeks. As stated in my first post, next I wanted to finish off some of the smaller silhouette exterior assets. I took this a few steps further and worked on developing the interior walls and materials for that (which are, at the moment, kinda temporary).… -
Re: Creating low poly and high poly for props workflow
Yeah the workflow is a little different for everybody but the basic principle stays the same. Personally I wouldn't ever detail a posed character because it makes modeling the attributes fiddley. I model in an A pose, whack a rig in then result and then pose it in the game engine. One way to way to get what you want: 1/… -
Re: Sketchbook: Cristian Villalobos
Hi Cristian, Looks interesting. What are your goals with this? Its quite a large piece. When we start work on projects we will first do a visual target. This is normally a small, isolated scene where we can develop the style without taking on too much and costing a load of time. Something of this scale with all of these… -
Re: Astartes Bolter WIP
You need to set up your normal smooth angles on your low-poly model, that's a major part of why you're getting errors in your bake. EarthQuake's article goes into a lot of good depth about it, but I'll summarize real fast based on my experience with Hard-Surface game models. 1) You need to set up your face/edge normals in… -
Re: Startup Game Studio suggestions/intel
Before figuring out location, cost, software, skillset, you need to figure out what products you're going to work on. First of all, collaborations aren't generally part of the business plan. They're happy accidents. The only cooperative strategies (worth putting in a business plan) I can think of are: -Working as a…
