Re: More goodies for subscription users!
I look forward to trying these out. Substance Procedural Textures: This looks to be the most promising of the featured updates. I already work this way with standard procedural materials and bake them out as a base to start painting on. Having a more fully featured material that focuses on the things I normally duct tape… -
Re: CrazyBump beta
Hey Ryan, Just wanted to thank you for Crazy Bump, all of Epic is slowly converting to it, and those that are slower have simply not been shown it yet. It really is a VAST improvement over the alternatives out there and can provide a huge speed boost to a process that is overly long and time consuming. If theres one… -
Re: kwshipman's environment thread
working on some of the high tech areas of the scene. I started to just model out some random shapes, but it was taking too long, and I kept redoing things. So instead, I made a base material that i'll model off of, later i'll make additional specific textures for screen/lights/misc stuff I didn't think of. This way, I have… -
Re: Animations (crits needed)
I made time tonight to have another pass at the jump anim. I tried to incorporate as many crits as i could (added more left/right sway, more secondary motion in the chest/head) but adding a longer anticipation before the actual jump was tricky. There's too many keys after that part to edit manually or else shit gets really… -
Re: LOW-POLY ART
Blender has... a brush tool and... a colour select tool i believe which work well, then a couple of dodgy tools which seem to give mixed results (smear and stamp), which is fine for painting in the lines of where things go at the start, but later on when im painting the skin colours etc i need to be able to keep track of… -
Re: Rich Diamant using Substance Designer
Oh yeah I did not mention yes Mari and Mudbox are still completely viable for very different reasons. I use Mudbox often enough when it comes to unique baked props. I tested out Mari and for game production it does not make sense atm at least for me maybe for characters it is different, I think ill test it out more later… -
Re: Early-Late 2000s CGI/Game textures
Zbrush appeared around 1999 maybe or early 2000 after some Siggraph presentation or something. First it was almost purely 2,5 painter with ability to drop small meshes on 2,5D canvas . I recall I instantly suggested to buy it for $900 but our management refused saying why would we need this weird soft doing weird stuff… -
Re: Building a GPU powered painting program.
Having this specific target (= a software that a splash art illustrator could use to fully replace Photoshop) is definitely interesting. You've obviously thought this through already but here are some thoughts : - First off I think the canvas control really would have to as close as possible to that of PS, or allowing… -
Re: Pizza Napoletana | Substance designer fully procedural material
Yes, variation came to my mind also (you got this far might as well go all the way with it). Can see the pattern on the green elements and it was a little meh to me, but otherwise i can understand how complicated these graphs can get. Makes me appreciate alternative sides of the production pipeline. Otherwise this is kind… -
Re: I got my dream computer. Here's how that went bad for me
UPDATE: I have an update! SUBHEAD: Unexpected Pitfalls So I got sick of microslop's shit for the very last time in November of last year. I didn't post on microslop's forums that I was switching to linux, and then keep using microslop's products. I just did a buncha research about which distro would be best for me and…
