Re: Gaming trends you want gone in 2014
Disgusting bandwagoning - creating games just like 'that one game' which made milions of dollars. If someone created game A, and it's good, people can make game B and C (let's say those are variations on the matter). Don't create D. E. F. G etc. (being exactly the same like A, B or C). That's what is happening to mobas.… -
Re: proskurin
The max viewport shots are nitrous in realistic mode with AO and shadows and skylight-as-ambient all enabled. That along with a 3-point light setup (plus a skylight) provides the right environment. For materials I use blend materials, where the A material visually matches the target, and the B material is a solid color for… -
Re: Predictions for future workflows and technologies
I'm with Pior. I want Zbrush straight to game engine. I'm so over modeling in program A, then retopo in program B, then UV mapping in program A or C, then baking in program A, B, or D, then import to engine X....ah fuuuuu my head hurts. That whole process is clunky and it's the Artists that have to jump through the hurdles… -

Re: DOTA2 Hero Shader - 3DS Shader Material - RELEASED!
You're right... It should be this!finalSpecular *= lerp(albedo, fSpecularColor, mask2.b); but instead I had this for some stupid reason. finalSpecular *= lerp(finalSpecular, albedo, mask2.b); Can't believe I missed that! xD Fixed it though! 3DS Max:… -
Re: Art Deco Streamliner Train
Any chance someone knows if new nodes can be created for UDK ? What UDK could do with is a LERP node that allows triple blends and instead of an ALPHA slot to blend between them an A,B,C slot would be great, one for each map. Could look like this: Base texture Texture 1 Texture 2 Texture 3 A = RED ( paints texture 1) B =… -
Re: Nintendo, PS3...Piracy Tactics
In relation to the dev saving money, hell yeah... If they dropped the development of crazy DRM and instead saved the cash to offer the buyers cheaper games, then that in itself would actually help they gain MORE money in the long run. A more attractive price point means more potential buyers. More people pirate because a)… -
Re: How the HECK do you create texture masks 1 & 2
RGB just shows the R G and B channels combined. You can also put each mask channel in a group, then limit that group to be R G or B. Create your groups, then right click and group properties, and untick the channels you don't want. Then you can show all of the groups at once and ctrl+a then ctrl+shift+c to copy everything… -
Re: Does Maya have an equivalent to Softimage Prop Model Tool?
I think P is looking for soft select? http://softimage.wiki.softimage.com/xsidocs/sculpting_UsingProportionalModeling.htm If you're running 2008 extended (I think it was rolled into 2009), you can toggle it on/off by pressing B. You can hold down B and drag left or right to increase or decrease the falloff. There might be… -
Re: [maya] Disable Component in object/component mode
I'm a little confused about what you're asking here, maybe it's a difference in how you and i work. Personally I only use F8 when I want to work on multiple objects in component mode. To move between modes, I use the standard right click marking menu in a quick snap motion. For example, I'm in vertex mode on object A, and…
