hey As I said last month I think limiting the heroes will make the competition less diverse and less fun :D I think either selecting a theme for items (not for heroes) or choosing a slot (weapon, shield, etc) will make it more fun :) just my opinion and if you guys think it's fine to just go on with heroes theme I suggest…
Thanks guys. :) Here are two more shots of the garage: Right now it's clean, new, like how the rest of the place is going to look like. There is a narrative reason for that: The building is new and partially furnished, no one has moved in yet. The player drone is there to keep things in order as more and more stuff gets…
Consistent ≠ perfect. And it doesn't need to look perfect, on the contrary - the hard rectangles for the colours currently make the banner look fake. If it's woven in or sowed on, it'll not be 100% straight. But all the stuff will have roughly the same thickness and amount of 'wobble'. In the wolf banner, some stuff…
People need to stop using "laissez faire" as a catch all excuse. I'm also tired of every arrest being made out to being the world turning into 1984. There used to be a guy who would come around here and take photographs when people had their garages open, then break into cars, steal the openers, and loot them. He would…
Eric asked me to load some images for Normal Tools. Here are some of the graphics that explain some of the tools. Clicking the image should load a larger version. Selection Functions: you can select all Border Normals. You can also force a sub-selection of currently selected normals to filter out non-border normals. There…
My experience is that most of the things you can do with custom brushes can also usually be done with any of the basic brushes, even sometimes more quickly. I've actually spent a fair bit of time experimenting with making/using custom brushes, but I find myself discovering with increased frequency that I only use two or…
Nice dumpster, only crit I can think to give is that I would imagine spray paint and the paint on the bin would be on or off, I'm not sure if its just me but I always felt that whenever people gradient the transparency of paint it seems to begin to not feel like... paint. Don't get me wrong, paint will fade in a gradient…
Thank you! I had about 4 or 5 attempts at this material before I got the rock generation looking decent. The distance node was my instinct at first, but I realized that I couldn't control the form of my rocks at all. Eventually I moved to an approach making bubbly forms that have some definition to them with the Tile…
Even tho I see the point about folks 'dancing in their heads', and the idea of having the TF2 characters dance like regular people, I dont see why you woulndt want to try to make one of them really dance to the music properly - just for the sake of seeing how its done even. At the moment, I really like the quality of the…
on that note, I recently changed the way I build faces just to see what would happen. Instead of starting from the base cranium, I started from basic skull structure of the mouth, and found that my heads were much more dynamic. I've also tried blocking out completely random silhouettes and filling them in later. You'll get…
