Never use normal map for grass or spec map for that matter. Unless of course grass is 1.5m tall and and have more varied vegetation in. And even then I suggest not. Simply because grass is sually heavy repeated object over map and each texture can reduce perfomance. Not to mention that noone will notice lack of any maps…
Alright! So this is a screenshot from the 10th and final sport of Super Sportmatchen! Wall-climb! Be the first to reach the top by pressing and holding the corresponding button/s of every grip! But beware of treacherous gusts and falling vegetables! =D Now I can focus on getting the last two character in and then some menu…
Thanks guys! Yeah I'll probably continue with some props on this, and modify whatever I can if I don't have to completely redo it. I think I'll start with a new fence texture based on the advice he gave, probably could get away with painting one more pumpkin texture and pasting the prop around in variations, more leafy…
[ QUOTE ] Damn does that country have every type of terrain!? [/ QUOTE ] Yeah, pretty much Aside from lacking a true desert, it's like the Disney World of terrain. You drive 25k in any direction and you're likely to come across some very different looking vegetation... highly recommended if you ever have chance to see…
Looks like your missing some small/medium dense vegetation that would help bed things in better. Also you need to make sure your translucency maps have data in them for the stalks etc so that the lighting between foliage and trunk is less extreme (bush on top of rock left hand side of last image for example the…
Add a a good Graphics Programmer to the mix. This is definitely one of the best realtime demos so far, but I hate how much custom stuff they use in their demos, I'm sure this one isn't an exception. I mean, I don't have a problem that they use a third-party physics engine, but for example the Blacksmith demo uses a custom…
Alright, been working on it off and on for a few weeks now. Still tweaking the textures. And the lighting is temp, just a directional and 2 spotlights. I won't buckle down on a light set up till I have the scene all fleshed out. Now for the static objects and vegetation so here she is- Keeping my fingers crossed that in…
Talking about how much americans get screwed over by their own system, i remember Ronald Reagan when i was a kid giving a small blurb about ketchup being a vegetable. And if your like me living in the great north and taking for granted that the system works here better than elsewhere and other countries should do this or…
Love Serenity :D Just bought Firefly on bluray too. I love The Thing and Alien, I still watch them far too much. Was not hugely impressed by Avatar really... I hate 3d films, I think they are a complete pile of rubbish, story line was laughable... I liked the big bomber thing and the APU type things, but really... meh.…
Seriously guys, this movie is gonna be like nothing else we've seen... http://fr.tinypic.com/player.php?v=2d9u1f&s=4 This entire sequence is 100% CG (spoilers of course) and I can't even begin to imagine how to do anything like this. The water interaction at the end is especially mind boggling, but all the cloth and…
