Re: Mobile Asset and Optimization. Tips Please
@mikhga I read through the forum several times. The technical details are hard to grasp. What I did take was obvisouly match your low with your high as much as possible in terms of shape. Ive been transferring normals from a super high to an almost too low poly low version and causes that extreme waviness. Some of the… -
Re: Any way to "bake" 3dsmax´s CAT Animation Layers?
@mark lol yea definitely has more control but sometimes you don't need all that @specter oo no, i'll use your example, say you have animation 1 that you want from frame 0-29 and animation 2 on frame 30-59 your layers look like this: 100% animation 1 100% animation 2 animation 2 is overriding animation 1 at 100% you need to… -
Re: (WIP) Super-quick Environment - Hyrdoponics Lab (CRITS WANTED!)
...so I kind of forgot to post progress shots. I plead sleep deprivation - I wanted to get this out in a job application this week, so I've been working on it basically nonstop since I posted it Thursday. Haven't slept since I woke up Sunday morning... It's Tuesday evening now. :poly142: Yeah, I'm a bright one. (art leads… -
Re: GoZ
Okay I've been watching the vid some more times and I noticed a few things ... - Like it's been mentionned before I feel like one cannot make 'real' mesh changes back in the 3D app. It seems to be limited to : inserting loops, splitting polygons (cut tool), maybe inset. Or extrude, if kept at distance zero. Basically stuff… -
Re: maya realtime lighting problem
In my experience you are somewhat out of luck with what you want from maya, at least with default materials and the basic renderer. High quality usually just fails like that on consumer ATI cards, and only sorta works on Nvidia consumer cards. Realtime shadowing... I don't think I've ever gotten that working in maya. And… -
Re: Enough. Shooting.
I think you missunderstood what JohnW wanted to say. It is not about the violence of the shooters, but the gameplay principle itself, which applys to Lego Star Wars too I guess. And I am pretty bored by that as well. To sum it up, right now there are more or less 4 and a half gameplay types available: 1. Shooting games,… -
Re: Help me sort out the mistakes
In addition to real world references for the gun you want to make, it might also be helpful to gather some reference of other people's work on the same subject. That would help give you a target for quality and detail. https://www.artstation.com/artwork/0B40y https://www.artstation.com/artwork/8LmER… -
Re: Going from 3D Env. artist to 2D
A couple ideas I've heard echoed a lot amongst 2D guys (Noah Bradley, Feng Zhu) to avoid common pitfalls are: 1. Use more reference 2. Do more thumbnails 3. Spend more time on the piece 4. Drawing is very important, and a solid drawing is a very good foundation for a painting 5. Fundamentals (Anatomy, perspective, values,… -
Re: Portfolio Work
Not to shabby for early work. I'm not sure of your situation or freedom to pick and choose what you do for your education work. But I personally think its very easy to get lost in more complex work and ambitions when starting out. If you think about it you had to design, model, texture, rig and render this project. You are… -
Re: Does age matter working at game company?
As long as you have the skills and drive then age shouldn't matter. Although saying that 4/5 years ago I was at the opposite end of the spectrum to you and even though I already had 2+ years of experience working at a AAA company, I found that potential employers focused on my being young as a negative (to the extent that…
