warning, massive post ;) (but plenty of nice pictures + 4 YouTube videos) Site: http://www.pingui-island.de/ What? Last big project I worked on in 2008 and 2009 before I moved to Australia. I was the man writing the tech for the Flash AS3 engines, asset pipeline (maxscript) and level editor (Flash AS3) and several of the…
hey guys, over the last few days i've been working on this: I'd love for people to play around with it and let me know what they think. http://crazyferretstudios.com/public/PhysicallyBasedLighting.upk The reason i made this was to get used to a newer way of working, with the industry moving toward a PBR setup, and very few…
Tits: No problem, it's actually pretty simple to make turntable gifs: Zbrush:* go to Movie->Modifiers * set your spinframes to something reasonable (probably 20-30 just to keep filesize down) * id set 'Recording FPS' and 'Playback FPS' to something like 5 (though you can change this in the gif) * then just hit turntable to…
Thanks man. And thanks to the above for the comments and feedback. Sure, below is a brief overview of the project. A lot of the process is probably common knowledge to most artists here, but guys new to environment art may find it helpful. I usually go about creating prerendered environments by breaking it down into…
welp, finished it! Won't spoil any ending, its not exactly amazing (FFX and X-2 ended WAY better, nothing compared to 9 though!)... but i guess it is a "conclusion." After i had finished it, i was still wanting about 4 or 5 more zones of combat and story development. It just ends... *shrug* :( I'm 87% complete with all the…
I'm just now getting back into the swing of things on forums, so forgive me if i'm bad at this whole posting thing. But... I like the feedback these guys are giving... it's good stuff for the most part. Someone may have touched on this... and a lot may not agree with me. But i noticed you're mapping everything to one…
Edit: Sorry for the huge-ass reply, but I feel the issues could be broken down further than just telling you what to cut. :poly122: +1 to Chillydog12345's post, though. First of all, congrats on getting to a point where you're applying! I think what you need to work on most is presentation, to be honest. Medium grey is the…
Hey, there. Nice project. I'm about wraping up my modest UT2004 peice, just need to work out all the bugs. I can probably help you with most of these questions in your post: QUOTE: 1.) Figuring out a Dynamics solution for the secondary animation on the loin cloth, so that there is some colision, but having to be bones…
Today I downloaded the Suite and unfortunately I came with an error that has the name of "Crash and date I try to open" it always comes with a different number of error, see the print I took the link below. http://prntscr.com/i3pv9r after I put in the "Yes" that translating to English is "Yes" (I am from Brazil then it…
Risking being too blunt here but... You spend most of your time fighting weird quirks, and your experiences are not universal. Have you considered this kind of thing might be either user error or a bug? Have you ever just... asked if something is intentional and filed a report? Plenty of people have no issue working with…
