Sorry for the stupid question. I'm a total noob. What is this animation that is usually used in browser games? I mean the slight movements of the knight and the highlights on the icons in the attachment. Is it a gif? Or maybe a video? Why can't I view these media files in the browser console? How does it work? How is it…
Ah, thank you! I tried the fast shader material, having always used the red or sculpey and it's so much easier to see it properly. I also had another pass on the nose and a few bits here and there. I've still got the neck to do properly though. The eyes have more around them and i'm just about to start the hair. I may well…
All the things you're listing are either heuristics which take lots of experience to internalize or else small tricks that aren't a significant part of the job. Someone can tell you polygon distribution matters but you still have to make a lot of models to figure out the when, where, how, and why in such a way that you can…
@BadgerBaiter - Jesus H. those prices would cripple the US economy, I can't even fathom that...shipping and trucking must be insanely expensive. I can only assume that social programs are expensive and the government found a cash cow to help pay for them. I have no doubt we will be in the same boat soon enough, its…
Sorry for typos, i am on my phone 3do is most probably unity4 unless they updated. What stops you from using it directly in the engine, i mean it has th mode (which i forgot the name of) to work qith ddo as an on screen overlay, basically putting Photoshop in the background and you canvtweak your teytures in engine. In…
i was working in a pub once, and after the shift was over the silly cow landlady pulled all the staff in, and started screaming at us that we were so useless we couldn't tell a counterfeit 50p apart from the real ones - "look at them!" she was shouting, "they're not even the same size and weight! You're lucky i don't sack…
Work a better transition into the shoulder, maybe some more edges, same with the knees. You want more polys where things are intended to bend. Try putting in a test skeleton and you'll see what I mean. Count the edges on each individual face- you have many there that are more than 4 or 3 sides which can cause all manner of…
Yeah I know, I'm not a good tread starter. For the thread title, I just changed the title to something better I hope and embedded the picture. The pyro already have an propeller hat. It is listed in the all items lit here. The hat I made here is part of the pyro tank on he's back. If you look closely you may see it ;) I've…
Demon Princess did make a female model she called "Yoshida Yuka", which was based on a pic by Masamune Shirow (the January pic from the Rebirth calender). She never made any Appleseed models though. David Coen also known as Frag Cow made those (Deunan Knute, Briareos and Fuchikoma). I made the skins for his Deunan Knute…
Wondering if anyone else is going? http://austingamecon.com/ I bought my early bird ticket awhile ago. I'll be driving from Dallas (riding a bus) and It'd be cool to hangout with some poly counters around that weekend.
