Re: 3DS Max Un wrapping - unmarking seams after peeling?
Whoever advised that doesn't know wtf they're doing. #misinfo -
Re: WIP Shiva FinalFantasy XIV
Why are you so salty Leinadien? For one thing the attitude you have got on display is very off-putting but your latest "comparison" is also a fallacy since the arms are not even positioned in the same way (which is why you had to flip the body to make the arm align). Just take a step back and recognize when to stop being… -
Re: [UE4] Physically Based 3D Art: 2016
Yeah, you're the one arguing and making claims about game engines not being powerful enough to look as good as your art requires. We're saying you've misled yourself, and that for your needs, a game engine is the more efficient choice, and will look just as good, if done right. We're just trying to correct the misinfo.… -
Re: Painter - process question about baking multiple materials to a single texture set
Assigning different materials to a game ready asset is generally only done in specific instances like setting up multiple tileables / material layering or if you need a part to have a certain shader applied (glass for example). For a standard prop though, you'd export out your game ready mesh with one material only. You… -
Re: Can't land a job after graduating from college. Advice appreciated.
You'll get there. Once the bitterness over your education wears off a bit, you'll be in a better spot to be creative. I've found that working out of money anxiety / desperation for the job will burn you out in the long term. Perhaps scale down a bit back to the diorama work but focus on making it a game ready (optimized… -
Re: How is this kind of cloudy edge noise generated? (texture generated by ChatGPT)
... and of course no link to the actual source of these regurgitated tutorial instructions is provided, as if this came out of thin air :/ I believe this has been mentionned before : if I am not mistaken (mods would have to confirm this), posting output from LLMs as a reply to someone asking for help is not welcome here… -
Re: Normal Map Problem
the robot is only going to recycle the misinformation this is a subject that cannot be googled because at least half the people who write with 'authority' on the subject are wrong. The one good source of information I've found - and the only one I hand over to artists who encounter this - is the sticky thread about wavy… -
Re: PBR safe base color node in Designer?
Iirc the node supplied with designer lets you switch between the two - if you're on the 70 version it's probably clamping your values to what it sees as full black Don't ask the AI stuff like this - it can't do sums and it recycles all the misinformation on the internet when you ask it questions . The vast majority of… -
Re: [WIP] Ghibli Kiki's delivery service, inspired enviroment UH Main project
Oh, just saw this. @MBauer17 - that is an exceptionally serious accusation to make. Not only is it factually incorrect, but it’s also entirely unearned on a personal level. The answer I shared in your thread provides all the context you need. But more importantly — we don’t do this here. We’re artists. We’re here to… -
Re: Internet Rot and brain drain: The loss of technical knowledge as sites and forums decay
Another thing that bothers me immensely is the way search engines have deteriorated over the years. I have a harder time finding what I am looking for than when I started out with 3D almost a decade ago. Not only because content is disappearing, but because the algorithms can't seem to find it anymore. I search for things…
