Hi all, Digital Drifters is an independent team working on a UE4 title. We're currently building into a vertical slice of our game - the game demo. We are looking for people with demonstrable skill in creating quality 3D art using "next-gen" techniques. Those techniques have been slightly altered in UE4. Not only can we…
Hi everyone, I am primarily a 3D artist and texturer with a big interest in technical stuff that relates to art. some of you may know my dissertation on batching - I found this highly interesting and found out more stuff that was unrelated and thus not needed. this included the transform bottleneck of transform bound or…
My tutorial writing skills are no where near where they should be. Re-reading it I think I can make it much clearer. I'll take another stab at it. 1) Plot your hair guides using splines. Align your splines so they will form poly strips. For the purpose of this example it will look as simple as 3. 2) Select the first spline…
My name is Joseph Taskis and I am studying BA honours: Games Art at the University of Hertfordshire. I have been tasked with finding a team and make a games trailer. The important parts of the brief are below: [FONT="]Brief:[/FONT][FONT="] Production of a 1.10-3min Short Real Time Game Trailer, Cinematic or Fly…
Dang, forgot WIP in the title... oh well. Working on a new interior environment (UDK). Primary goal (besides the usual "good portfolio piece") is lighting practice and zbrush fine-detailing practice, since I want to zbrush fine carving and engraving onto just about everything. Viking / Norse art was very notable in not…
As Trackmania Sunrise will hit the stores soon (April 6th 2005 in Europe), you'll be able to make you own custom cars (within the limitations). I consider that the same as a "PPM" , but with a car mesh. Trackmania has a strong multiplayer component (and a great community), custom skins are already heavily used (especially…
I have been using Maya 2015 for some time and the rate at which it crashes is astronomically high compared to the previous versions I have used (2012). I'm no stranger to going into the temp folder and resurrecting my file but 99% of the time the temp file itself crashes when opening. I can however open the file with Maya…

Hello, Being curious and inspired by the work of the Quixel team, I decided to see if I can mimic some of their results and try my hand at constructing my own prototype "megascanner." It's a 1 square meter wooden box with an open bottom and a hinged top. Each interior side has a set of white LEDs each wired to a dimmer…
Thank you for your thoughts! I'm encouraged and it's got me thinking. 1: That's super interesting because the answer is absolutely not. I'm probably adding a lot of skew now that you mention it. I have been led to believe I will never have a situation where the edges align. I'm hoping you can understand why when I say that…
