Re: RIP Backup Partition
Just remember the cardinal rule of RAID: RAID 1 is not a backup! RAID 1 protects against hardware (the physical drive) failure only. If you accidentally delete a file, it's gone on both of the drives. If a file becomes corrupted, it's gone on both drives - etc. I use a 500GB RAID 1 to protect my work, but I make regular… -
Re: SOLVED: Megascans Open Beta?

The new 3D asset section will also be part of megascans and we hope that you will really like it. Regarding to pricing Im sorry I can not say, Im… -
Re: WIP - Cat + Bike = No.
The tail will come later, being that its going to be a scout / race type of bike, its either going to be used as a sensor array / indicator device. Im just trying to get the basic shape down, I think I'm happy with it so far. I've been using pictures of concept bikes / big cats to try and combine the 2 for body shape. If… -
Re: Bionic Character Bust
Jackablade: Yeah I thought the same thing, but I kinda like it. Mossbros: Thanks. For the cleaner topology: I exported a decimated version of the rough concept sculpt and did the retopo in Maya with creased edges. Sorry I didnt record that part Texelion: no worries Pisciel: Thanks, no probs Makkon:haha thanks man and no… -
Re: Props Thread for "The Travel"
I think one the different things you can do would be making like a variation with the drawers pulled out and just array it in a way that even with similar textures...the models help make the scene pop because of the variation. As for the texturing, I think though you added more details to them, try starting a little… -
Re: Batch Exporter Problem
use Try() and catch() to skip over crashing sequences. Using try and catch can slow down processor intensive loops, but for a batch exporter it should be fine. Ffor example say MyMaxFiles is an Array of max file names. The following code will try to export all files. If there is an exception, the loop will skip the error… -
Re: Orphan Works AKA death for artists
That Sebastian Kruger caricature of Stallone is actually an awesome example, because in the middle of big cities (London, Paris, Rome - I've seen them at all of these places) you will find at least 10 caricaturists offering to draw your picture, and in front of them are arrayed "their" past drawings ... and they nearly… -
Re: Rendering normal map information to lightmaps
To reduce drawcalls, you can select groups of objects that are nearby and bake them to specific lightmap by hand using BakeSelected. In previous versions it would require you to first create large enough lightmap array, lock it and then selectively bake.. I think in latest versions this was addressed. This way you can save… -
Re: new guy
one more update before i go to sleep. here's an early normal map application. mental ray is acting childish when i try to render out a proper ao so im using an old school omni array for the same gi effect. thats a 512 on there btw. ThatDon: thanks for the arousing words about my low poly, im sure it'll appreciate the… -
Re: Medieval cellar - UDK
Cheers Lamont. It looks pretty cool, this kind of torches would fit the scene pretty well. I was planning to add some before (in fact, those orange lights are where the torches were supposed to be) but my laziness took over. The lighting should change significantly once I add those. I want to use a flame texture as…
