"Best render settings" change immensely between different scenes. I think what your after is a clay type render. Just turn on Final Gather with mental ray in the mental ray tab. Then in the Render Settings, first tab turn off the default lighting. Or use IBL which is a tab on the very bottom of the mental ray tab. It's…
Hi all. I need a little help here. Been a while since I am looking for an effective workflow for making a larger scene. I am already gathering all the references but I couldn't start, I am stuck on which way should i go. . I found a course but...there was a comment on this post.…
yeah, i looked at that already and it doesnt answer my quesiton, im not really trying to make a portfolio to get jobs, I just want to know the best way of showing my work. when people show their work on here, do they just hit "prtScn" then save that in paint after cropping?
I'm currently looking for 3D character artist jobs and I'm not getting much reception from anywhere at the moment, which I'm aware is to do with a range of things I need to improve on. However, my question is how to best present a game ready model? Mainly which software to use? I've learnt from university to use unreal…
I assume what he meant was that big studios would clone their workstations from a master HDD, not through VM, so software management wouldnt be setup such that all workstations are just slaves to a master system. With that kind of setup you'd just re-clone the workstation if necessary. Correct me if I'm wrong here! Some…
Daz I just had the same thing happen 1 week ago! My 6800 up and went poof on me. I was playing WoW and my monitors went really dark and then started prompting signals back and forth saying Analog/Digital, as if no video signal was being received. I couldn't make any sense of it and so rebooted. It wouldn't come back up,…
I generally stick to high fantasy with all the cliched trappings, but one of the better books I read recently was Assassin's Apprentice by Robin Hobb: [ame]http://www.amazon.com/Assassins-Apprentice-Farseer-Trilogy-Book/dp/055357339X[/ame] I thought the first book was the best of the trilogy, but they're all great reads…

When I first heard Orcs must die didn't have CO OP I figured you guys were brain dead. But I'm glad to see that there's still a game company's out there that actually improves on their sequels. 2 thumbs up to you Robot Entertainment. I just love this game so far, it's more of what you loved from Orcs must die and better.…
I think you'll get less of "critique" and more personal opinion, which is fine. so personally I say get rid of the blue AO squares on the back, it's not helping me read your render and it's not showing anything interesting. for the front, get rid of the weird font and go with something clean, roboto is a decent choice, but…
