Re: Why can't triangles be stretched over quads?
Again, for most games fill rate woes from transparency overdraw is a bigger problem than dropping your instanced bush prop from 500 tris to 300. This kind of stuff is just excessive optimization because of the things that Pior and Xoliul mentioned. Each additional vertex in a contiguous surface is cheaper to draw than the… -
Re: Jason Rubins DICE 2004 Speech
I think you're very wrong on this one. I think if publishers fail to see the change in the market happening right now, they'll dig their own graves, doesn't matter how big they are at the moment. Let's take Minecraft as an example. Great great game, it was done without any publisher help, Persson didn't take any money from… -
Re: Is there a Maya solution for baking alpha planes to texture
https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/maya/learn-explore/caas/CloudHelp/cloudhelp/2018/ENU/Maya-Modeling/files/GUID-5580B297-5045-4251-9596-0F468D73A12B-htm.html Something like making that; actual geometry out of your cutouts, or more like scattering your alphas on the texture like a stamp? Usually we'd use a scatter… -

Re: Computer Build Review for 3D rendering/animation
I was talking about using the GTX 780 or a sli of GTXs just for rendering. EVGA may have a nice warranty, like other builders, but you'll suffer the nuisance and dissapointment of having burned cards and all the whole replacement. We can use CUDA for some renderings, but just that. If you are going to use the gpu almost… -
Re: Low poly Max issues in Edit Poly
But why can it do it in edit mesh? Smooths fine. If your making 500 tri characters every vert counts, especially when it comes to animating those verts on an iPhone! -
Re: GI-ing with point lights
Doing this in a forward rendering based engine is very suboptimal. It is never going to work in anything but simple environments. I don't know how many lights you got in the above pic, but lets say you got 20 lights a wall x 3 walls = 60 lights and 6 meshes would come down to what, 400 to 500 drawcalls? And that is just… -
Re: Normal Map Issue with Cylindrical Objects?
https://polycount.com/discussion/81154/understanding-averaged-normals-and-ray-projection-who-put-waviness-in-my-normal-map#latest your lowpoly is just too different from your highpoly. right now you waste a ton of tris for no gain. https://us.v-cdn.net/5021068/uploads/editor/6z/phh78dit2jke.jpg like in this image, instead… -
Re: Seeking PixelArtist with Animation Skills
