OK so backstory, because I know the number 1 and 2 responses will be "just take them!" and "It shouldn't matter!" I work as a contractor in office for a small VFX team in a larger company. I come in whenever they need me, and recently I've been working more or less full time. It's been hinted that I would be able to apply…
i think a punishment like suspension would be fine. but really, lots of times everything that kids do these days are being taken wayy to serious. Its one thing to harass a girl and touch her, but a simple pat on the butt can do no harm. If a girl is in emotional distress over something like that, then she has other…
Hey everyone! I just tried to understood whole workflow for creating assets using by tilable textures and materials. But at this point i couldn't understood one small detail. For instance I want to create some old door asset. It will contain tileable wood material and any tileable dust material. My question is how to get…
Hi. I am really curious about how much time you are given on assets you create in a studio. I feel like i'm rushing things a bit too often which degrades the quality. Say, creating a tileable texture from high-poly? Sculpting and texturing rock assets? Obviously depends a bit on the complexity, i get that. Your experience…
My payday is June 1st. As soon as the money is in my account I will get 6-month subscriptions for Modo&Mari Indie combo from Steam. And during the upcoming Steam sale around the end of June I plan to buy 3D Coat Educational. To me, using scripts is a bit unnecessary since I hardly touched it when I installed recommended…
Hello! Some friends and I are working on a small game and we've run into an issue with KActors and a barrel. The geist of it is: Player walks up to trigger. Trigger spawns KActor Barrel. If player walks back to trigger, another barrel spawns. Basically we can't get a KActor to spawn from the Actor Factory and don't know…
iirc you wouldn't be able to do that from maxscript - you don't have many options when it comes to the uv editor. there is a probably a way to reduce the number of times you need to do this by changing the order you do things - I don't remember getting particularly annoyed by this problem when I was doing a lot of work in…
As for tutorials on handpainted stuff... The first thing that comes to mind is Ben Mathis' older character creation tutorials. http://www.poopinmymouth.com/tutorials/ His second character tutorial uses an app called Bodypaint3d, to paint textures in 3d basically. If you do not have access to this tool, you can replace it…
I started getting RSI pains/tingling in my fingers and wrists at the end of last year. I'd been doing a lot of artwork at home on top of my time in the office and was also playing videogames more than I normally do these days (curse you Assassin's Creed III/Hotline Miami!). It was getting pretty bad, but I took some time…
