Neelam
Here is the face I did recently to try my hands on Unreal engine. The goal was to get a good looking skin, even after super closeup. Something that Lukas Hajka's project inspired me to do. It's still way off from his level of quality, but is a start. Will be updating my skin knowledge more and more. For the detailing… -
Odd UDK biped problem
Hi. I'm encountering a strange problem with my rigging. I've modeled a basic female meh and I've posed UDK's Female Biped to fit my mesh, I've only manipulated the bip_xxx objects to get the biped to fit my mesh. The basic pose is upright with arms out at shoulder height. The problem comes in when I exit Pose Mode to begin… -
Maya batch render & transparency
I'm using maya 8.5 rendering in mentalray draft mode. I have objects with alpha maps that also fade to being completely transparent. I did this by having the shader's transparency controlled by the maya blend utility. color one is the alpha map, and color two is completely black (for completely transparent). When i render… -
New Metroid 3 shots. :(
Man, I've been looking forward to this game for ages... But holy hell... These shots are awful: http://www.joystiq.com/2007/05/22/new-metroid-prime-3-screenshots/ Its really starting to look like "why bother?" now for some of these Wii games. I know the point in the hardware being so low was because it was to keep the… -
Re: [3DS Max] Save Poses
We're dealing with some major weather issues down in Texas! But I managed to whip up this example with some pseudo code in the rollout section. Things to note: * In General, as poopipe mentioned, you operate with the poses stored in the rollout. You only access a custom attribute when opening and closing (loading and… -
Re: advice for Unity bullet trajectory method. How should I do it?
poopipe left out one major factor though. I don't recall the technical term but every bullet has certain flight characteristics that will not only effect when and and at what rate it will drop, but also how much it may rise. So if you buy a box of rifle rounds, oftentimes there will be a chart on the back or the side that… -
Re: Maya UV Tools?
Hey Brian, sorry for that comment. Its obvious there's a lot of work in there, 10k lines of code is no joke. It was worth it for me. I'd say the reason for that comment is a lot UVNinja is accessing Maya commands through MEL. My issue with that is a lot of maya's UV commands are a bit unreliable. smoothUV sometimes explode… -
Re: Game Specific Animation Techniques
I would like to see less game animators using the standard boring Maya character rigs and at least put some effort into modeling their own stuff, or at least get some SDK characters (like the awesome SDK meshes here on pc) and rig them up for some animation. It just feels way off to me, seeing… -
Super Adventure Box tribute - Unity/Substance
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nev5ip6-Dx0 Last weekend I took some time out to practise some asset production. I often find myself creating or learning something useful along the way when I do. What started out as a curiosity about using Substance Designer to create pixel art, ended up as a homage to Guild Wars 2's April… -
Re: DFAO Specular Occlusion - Alireza's Art Blog
Tip 02 - PBR materials needs baked shadows and specular maps and here's why. It doesn’t matter if it’s Megascans or what, once imported in game engine you get average looking materials. In Megascans library you’re looking at renders on surfaces with tons of triangles. Every tiny detail is in 3D and it receives shadows plus…
