Re: Do any of you professionals rate Paul Steed?
You have to understand that the first book itself is archaic. I don't know about the lot of you, but I for one remember when we didn't all model in quads or have these nifty ring/loop tools Yes, the book has been in dire need of review for a damn long time, but cut it the same slack you would "Inside 3d Studio Max 2.5".… -
Re: Dad needs help with Christmas
If you cannot afford Photoshop, Jasc's Paint Shop Pro is a decent clone, and is just under $100 as I recall. As many others have stated, a Wacom Tablet is really a fantastic item. I don't know what I'd do without mine. Those are considerably more expensive however ( I got mine factory refurbished for around $230 from… -
Re: GTA San Andreas is being investigated in the US
[ QUOTE ] Nah, I'm sure R* is stoked. You can't BUY this kind of publicity. [/ QUOTE ] They're not too stoked... from Gamasutra's front page Take-Two's own response to the ratings increase has been to lower its third-quarter and fiscal year outlook; the quarterly projection has been lowered from around $205 million to… -
Re: Lictor
Overlay is right, but you should run Levels on your bump layer, select the Blue channel only, and drop the maximum level from 255 to 128. Renormalisation makes sure all the vectors add up to 1 (like they should but don't once you blend more than one map) - it's a setting in the nVidia photoshop filter, just select… -
Re: Next gen art tests....80 hours of work?
I think an alleyway is more than acceptable for an art test. I think it takes more effort to craft a believable next gen character than it does an alleyway. I did an alleyway for my portfolio. 2.5 days of work, more than 8 hrs a day. *Edit* They get about 100 requests a week for these damn tests and spam them to tons of… -
Re: If you know me or Tins, Read This! (Part 2)
Ah, I went back to work and got time sucked away again. Where does it go? I looked down the back of the sofa, but no time to be found there. Thanks again to you all. Sam's doing fine, doing the usual baby things - sleeping eating and soiling himself with a vengance. Chunk, I don't know when we'll be in the UK next - we're… -

Re: Is it possible to get an Archviz critique here?
Wow! What a fantastic critique! Thank you so much for your time! Really, so much useful info! I aim to become a visualizer, focusing on pure archviz or product visualization, probably interior. I worked with technical drawings in a furniture firm and fell in love with the aesthetics of furniture visualizations. I really… -
Re: Approach for PBR correctness of coated or treated metal surfaces (Metal/Rough & Spec/Gloss)
Anyone being dogmatic about surfaces that cannot be represented by the shader you're using is very silly and doesn't know what they're talking about. However, there are some hard(ish) rules metallic specular/basecolor values should never be fully saturated (eg. 255,0,0) minimum valid value for metallic specular/basecolor… -
Re: WIP UDK - lair of a criminal
Looks really good! although it looks more like a private investigators office more so than some deranged serial killer. I`m not saying you need to blood it up or anything. It just needs something unsettling. I`m not sure if you`ve played it, but you should check out the Fairfax residence in Swat 4. Its a really old game.…
