Re: Need Cry Vertex Paint Workflow/Shader!
Took me a while to figure out how to use the shader. It's awesome though! Now the question is - how do I export the shader settings? I got a mesh with multiple materials and it seems to export fine (no errors + materials compile into one multi-material). However, in Cryengine/Sandbox, I can only assign one material at a… -
Re: Sculpt first or last?
Depends but 99% of the time I will make a low poly model in max/maya/Blender even if it is an organic sculpt as a base mesh, I can get the head and shoulders and other pre sculpting forms out quicker than using dynamesh or Zspheres. but rarely is this my low poly model ever returned to its just a base to work off, then I… -
Re: Workflow for MMORPG characters?
What Rick said. Keep all of the variations/customizations in mind while building the first model. There are a lot of things that you have to plan ahead otherwise you'll be losing a lot of work later. If I remember correctly in WAR, we have the Head and base Body together as one mesh, with different mat id's for different… -
Re: Some advice!
What you're after won't be found by chasing a specific rendering engine or specific rendering features. The reasons those games look good are: 1. Art direction 2. Lighting, and the skilled people who create it 3. Art content, and the skilled people who create it ... ... 99. Engine specific features Instead of lusting after… -
Re: Can i be modeler really?
Do you like doing it? If yes, then you'll find the motivation to keep practicing. Very talented people are just people who have a lot of enthusiasm to pursue what they love.

Re: Major PC issues, possibly XNormal related?
Right, I've just had to reformat/reinstall again and I'm 99% sure this is XNormal related, however odd that seems. I went through the laborious process of restarting my PC after every driver/software installation and it was all fine until I installed XNormal. After rebooting after the XNormal installation I got the BSOD… -
Re: Basic help for a n00b?
3dsmax has some great tutorials included in the help files (Main Menu > Help). Also The Area has some good content but you have to register and log in. Outside of that I would ignore 99% of whats on youtube, stick to sites like http://www.3dtotal.com/ Good luck on the simple passage way, even the visually simple ones can… -
Re: M4A1 Carbine W.I.P
Yes it wont be noticed by 99% of consumers, but we're not consumers, we're artists, and if you dont expect to be held to a higher standard then you may be pursuing the wrong hobby. It applies to every area of every art. If you were an environment artist who made ceilings too low or doors too thin, or door handles too high,… -
Re: Game Developer Asks To Hear From Pirates
amiga titles I bought: deluxe paint 3, shadow of the beast, leander pc titles I bought: quake 3, halflife 2 piracy on the pc has always been rife, but in no way compares to the amiga in its hay day, and we didn't even have the internet! I only ever shelled out for PC games I respected. 99% of other games I've played have… -
Re: translated manga about the dangers of human rights
I don't know what they are droning on about anyway, Tokyo is like 99% Japanese 1% foreigner. Japan as a whole is 99.9% Japanese. We get it rough here, a little human rights would go a long way. But so does not; taking the piss, acting like you're in a theme park or screaming at the top of your voice in english, drunk…
