Image embedding troubles?
Some people are reporting difficulties with adding images to their posts. https://polycount.com/discussion/comment/2649251/#Comment_2649251 We're working with the Vanilla Forums developers to find a fix. Sorry for the trouble with this! But how wide-spread is this problem? How many people has it hit? If you're having… -
Re: Sketchbook: Eric Chadwick
Got a rudimentary engine in there, animated doors+, AO bake, leather interior, etc. Still fixing bits n bobs. -
Re: Feedback on Darius model
Thank you I will have a look at that and those channels. It is indeed quite overwhelming but is also the lack of skill in like seeing what is wrong with head etc. Like I find it difficult why my proportions doesnt make the character that I want to make. -
Re: Sketchbook: Add3r
Sat down and I thought I would experiment with normal, AO, and displacement baking within Maya through Transfer Mapping. Was interesting to say the least. Here is a quick writeup for future reference for myself and to explain my process to see if I could get some feedback if I did something askew! Thanks for checking it… -
Re: Indie Game Pre-Production Help
A few things you should check off: A Designer; you'll need one. I don't mean to offend, but generally artists are good at making something pretty stuff, but not good for 10 minutes of good play time.

Re: 3DSMAX - Cat Rig - Where is the heel peel/lift, toe tap/twist/lift, knee and elbow swivel dials?

Re: Crysis 2 Hallway - UE4 (PBR)

Re: "AAA" launches
keep in mind that modern games are so much more complex than games before. There are dozens of layers upon layers upon layers of 3rd party code. From the OS, the video drivers (nVidia, ATI), the 3D API (DX11, OpenGL, etc.), the engine (Unreal, Frostbite, etc), the middle-ware(s) (e.g. Scaleform, FaceFX, etc.) and the… -
Re: How many textures per model is too many?
In all honesty, there are so many factors that can affect how many textures are applied to one model. For large scale things I would use multi-sub and probably a single texture or two for an asset. You have to ask yourself where the model will be placed in game.. like will it be in a high traffic area? How many of the same…
