Here's a quick video to hopefully highlight the problem a bit more. https://files.facepunch.com/mattisaac/1b3111b1/2018-01-31_21-29-49.mp4 I've managed to get it baking with Xnormal now too but I think when it uses the normals as a base to bake on to a different set of UV's it uses the new mesh/low poly's tangents - where…
Wow, that's a damn upgrade for sure :) Agree with Florence, the head shape is a bit whacky! For the butt I think a bit of smoothing might really make it look more natural. There is a small dent in it on yours, just above the cheeks. That shouldn't be quite there. For Ref I suggest Hazardous stuff:…
[ QUOTE ] Oddly, Graves, although your paintover makes the hair look way better and more accurate, while the face is more believable in terms of shading (around the eyes especially), I think it loses something in terms of recognisability - the original seems to bear more likeness to Gillian Anderson.

@Deadly Nightshade I don't want to beat a dead horse, but I figured I would add some of my own speed comparisons... for science. I'm using Maya 2018 btw, maybe Pymel is way faster in newer versions. Pymel import time: 1.0759999752 seconds Cmds import time: 0.00200009346008 seconds Importing Cmds is 537.974848015x faster…
Hi, I hope it would be helpful for new artists. I figured it out and it's working with Maya 2017 also. ConvertSelectionToEdges; You can use this command or here is the new link for Maya 2018 and 2019. https://lesterbanks.com/2019/05/free-script-automatically-finds-hard-edges-in-maya/
Hello everyone, I'm not entirely sure if this is the right place to post this but, if you are a Unity developer and you just so happen to use our shader editor, you'll be happy to know that we now support the new Unity 2018 Substance Plugin. It allows for some pretty interesting effects, manipulating Substances via shader…
Ghosts n Goblins for the NES. If you didn't rage at that game then you're made out of pure cold steel. I remember finally beating the final boss after 2 years of constantly trying, only to not get a real ending. That was the day the wall next to my little gaming station got a hole through it. In recent times it's Modern…
No need for the douchey reply. AFAIK Pixologic hasn't announced anything more than they did at the summit. 4r8 was billed as adding cool features meant for zbrush 5 but sooner since it wouldn't be out for awhile. One might have expected a release at the beginning of the year but since we are far removed from that a…
I just wrote a 3k word article on this, i will post up soon, but basically, use artstation. Its where the most relevant attention is. when you update a personal website or blog noone is notified and its just like a fart in the wind. when you focus on building an artstation following, every one of your followers gets a…
Who are these "people"? http://www.forbes.com/sites/johngaudiosi/2012/07/18/new-reports-forecasts-global-video-game-industry-will-reach-82-billion-by-2017/ Edit: Bleh other article was from a pay site Cliffsnotes: The game industry is worth less today than the film industry was worth 6 years ago. Can't find a good estimate…
