PBR: The Problem with Greyscale Metalness
So I've seen a lot of posts regarding physically based rendering around lately, and one of the things I commonly see discussed is "metalness" and how to use it appropriately. Firstly I'd like to preface this post with my own personal opinion. I do not like the metallic workflow, I believe that there are too many semantics… -
Re: exporting photoshop folders out as files
That's the 'code' to export a dds uncompressed with the last plugin ( not sure it works with older ones but it should ). You just need to replace the TGA part with that and change the "filename.dds" part with the corresponding variable. ( something like [ docRef.path + "/" + tempDoc.name + ".dds" ] ) var idsave =… -
Re: Bill Maher: Stand up for the 70% of Americans who aren't crazy
Forgot about this thread. That was a cute post but it was loaded with emotion instead of logic. Let me pre-face by saying I respect you and your work John. My intent isn't to make enemies around here. (I can't really afford to...lol) A lot of you guys rock with your craft. I just have serious reservations with the loving… -
Re: MaxScriptin'
It's coming along nicely thanks to CB. I've created a very simple rollout UI, and it sets the active time segment to the track you click on, this will be very handy when it comes time to use it. But I hit a snag, I'm trying to sequence the sound files but I can't figure out how to get a loop going that will find the end… -
Re: Tweak the Weight Tool?
I managed to make all the changes I wanted but I still have a piece of code to correct. Currently if you select a bone in the viewport, the popup Skintools don't follow. You have to select the bone in Skintool's list to change the weight of a vertex. I'm looking since yesterday, but I feel that it's beyond my capacity with… -
Re: 101 Photoshop tips in 5 minutes
transcript : Time: 00:00.00 #1: Wanna copy a layer? I say jump it: Ctrl+J. You a Mac user? Awesome. #2: When I say Ctrl, press Cmd, the one with an apple on it. #3: For a new layer, press Ctrl+Shift+N (Cmd-Shift-N on the Mac). #4: To delete a layer, get the move tool and press Delete (or Control-Delete). #5: Every letter… -

My project has been featured by IGN : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bI0j5SdhY6A The team i directed and… -
Re: Photographing skies for sky domes
The Photomerge tool in Photoshop is great for normal panoramas, but it cannot stitch fully spherical panoramas. (This will be added in CS4). Don't even spend time on the mirror ball technique, it's a lot of work and the results are not very good. You are very limited by the resolution of your camera, so at best you'll get… -
Spectral color and perception
Feel free to add to this. I'd like to spread some awareness of the spectral properties of light because I think it'd help artists (and anyone who deals with lighting and materials really) to be aware of. I'm not an expert so please correct me if there's anything wrong or unclear, but hopefully you'll find this crashcourse… -
Re: dave school...
There seems to be a bit of misinformation here and perhaps a little bias as well. Just so you know where I'm coming from, I'm a professional artist, having spent 8 years working at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base. I was the Art Director and lead 3D artist for CAE, creating both low and high poly models for the A-10 and EC-130…
