Re: Warhammer Online Not Crediting All Developers
I'm with you guys, it's just a matter of professional courtesy. It costs the company nothing, so unless someone has been fired for something unforgivable like plagiarism, I don't see why they'd choose to have someone stricken from the credits. Sucks to hear that this practice is pretty much law at EA, Daz. IMO, when a… -
Re: U2-Pilot WIP (need advice on topology please)
I'm pretty sure that is a parachute harness. They also use the same pressure suits for the SR-71 blackbird (Habu) so you might be able to dig up some more ref. Here's all that I could find. http://www.vigville.com/forum_images/U2Pilot/ Like you said some ref has it without the straps and I think that just indicates they… -
Re: gauss' pompous best of 2006 movie list
Yeah I agree that the actual story of "Children of Men" was kinda weak, but it felt kind of like a great computer game; e.g. great background story and setting, while the actual "story" is to shoot things About the Departed beeing a remake: Well it isn't really recycling story elements but more or less a 1:1 copy just set… -
Re: Unpaid Art Tests - Why is this even a thing????
I did 2 day art test at Bitz games, whilst in their studio. Bit nerve racking , but it came out pretty ok and i got the job. did this around 2002- modleled textured and rigged in 7 hours + tidying up the next day I was pretty much inexperienced at the time. I suppose it proved that i could handle that particular situation… -
Re: [Code] Custom Cavity Pass
The reason ur getting those annoying black lines is because of the way the program inherently works. What it does is it compares each pixel to its 8 other neighboring pixels. So, when ur on the very edge of a surface (like a sphere), it stands to reason that there will be an equal or larger number of pixels outside of the… -
Re: Level editors
Even if it was just flat shaded, I'm amazed you got a framerate that high from (approx) 30000 polys being rendered, because literally, the demos on his site are like a slideshow on my computers. Did you test it textured, and see the speed? I make sure to cover enough ground with my engine, I only have a Core Duo and Core 2… -
Re: Monthly Art Challenge July 2016 (42)
@kadeschui Yes the concept is difficult to read, that's why I referenced images from the web. http://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0305/6537/files/CRYSTALMAGICGRAPHIC_grande.jpg?18329548710626158047… -
Re: 3D Studio Max - Have intersecting geometry push away from each other?
Did your try using Cloth or SimCloth3, maybe even MassFX modifers if you're in the newer versions of Max, to simulate the collision? It already looks like each of the strands are their own object, so selecting each one and applying one of the modifiers listed above will get you exactly what you need (you can merge them… -
Re: Characters - getting better
Thanks Turista. Some suits do have one button, but it's less common. I might add another anyway just for the added detail, but still have the jacket done up with one. I'm going for a 50s/40s suit look, a lot of the looks they had back then were very loose and baggy. I think that's why the jacket seems long and the crotch… -
Re: [Question] BIG monsters with BIG textures.
Just my 0.02$: 1) Use texture tiling ( aka texture wrapping UVs ) 2) Use procedural textures ( noise, wood, skin shaders ) and composited layers. 3) Use texture compression ( DXT1 for color maps + 3Dc/A8L8 for normalmaps ) 4) Detail mapping ( detail=signed grayscale texture tiled ) 5) Fur fins to hide the base texture 6)…
