Re: 24 - Jack's Back
I didn't like it. Was expecting action, drama and was hoping for surprise but unfortunately this finale hardly invoked any emotion. I'm kind of glad its the last season though, was getting bored of 24 and its many illogical events. Also I used to like Mary Lynn Rajskub (Chloe), but I gradually hated her acting more and… -
Re: Help a newbie out with high poly assets?
For 2, there are some performance considerations depending on your target platform and renderer that change the types of polycount you can reasonably achieve. For desktop and console GPUs using deferred renderers the rasterizers drop off in efficiency when there's more than one triangle in a 4x4 block of pixels on the… -
Re: Best workflow for cleaning up a mesh that has been exported from Rhino into Zbrush
"The model is to represent sand dunes and will be cnc'd to a 1:25 scale" If you haven't done so already, the first step isn't to worry about how to convert things to OBJ, but rather to get in touch with the CNC operator who's going to take care of your job. The CAM (that is to say : the machining prep) could be done in… -
Can you make too many seams when UV mapping?
I've heard it said before that you don't want seams in certain places on a mesh, by that I mean the UVs are apart. But I'm not sure if this is old advice from past workflows or if it really is something to be avoided. When I bake out normal maps and so on, everything appears to look fine. Maybe the mipmaps are affected?… -
Re: Help me to become a better 3D artist! :)
Thanks for the feedback everyone BigJohn: Not too sure whether you're referring to the actual texture itself or the final render of it, I think maybe rendering it out again might help, it is very flat due to whatever setting I used at the time. Marine: I looked at a few spec maps done for characters and they all seemed to… -
New to LowPoly Objects... many questions
Hey everybody. I'm new to the whole lowpoly modeling thing. I'm looking for a general idea of what i need to be shooting for when modeling environments, characters, props, etc. If anyone has the time to reel off a list of what's appropriate regarding the objects above and what texture resolutions need to be at I'd be very… -
Re: State of the Industry: Why you should or should not give up.
That was great. Pretty much what I think, but unlike this guy I don't have the wisdom to go and make something out of it. That's gotta change. One thing that spoke to me is how you gotta do art for yourself, and ALWAYS for yourself. Sure, we want somebody to pay us to do that, and they usually they want you to do their… -
I am now ranked Triangle. How many more ranks until Admin?
I received a notification yesterday that said I was promoted to triangle rank. I don't want to the power to get to my head, but I feel like I'm now ready for another bump up to something like site admin. Please let me know if there is anything you guys need from me. I'm willing to work the first few transition days for… -
Re: The Chronicles of Narnia
I thought the child actors were utter pish and that spoiled a lot of it. I'm surprised people liked them let alone labelled them exceptional ( unless you were meaning exceptionally bad but hey its all opinion). I found myself feeling that it was a shame that so many powerhouses of the effects industry were thrown together… -
