I think this is looking really cool, but the one thing I wonder about, and this is sort of just a general observation about hand painted projects I typically see on Polycount. Often, it seems that a hand painted project goes hand in hand with a low poly asset. And I get that because in the past most games that did the hand…
Thanks guys, really glad you like it! This is actually a really good question. As stromberg mentions toolbag 1.09 offers a lot more than the quick previewer you get with dDo. dDo's previewer is great if you need to load a mesh and preview one texture set, however Marmoset Toolbag offers a lot more in terms of setting up…
The Blender foundation is founded by the Europen Community + the donation system that involve Valve and Epic Games (just to say a couple) it has at the moment 5 full-time developers. Even with this small team Blender is the faster growing software in the industry. Open-source is not a problem, mozilla is open-source, linux…
Ok so first off, I think its important to understand the basic fundamental point of PBR, that is that all lights and materials behave in a logical and consistant manner, which means no matter how you set up your lighting, the asset will be lit as correctly as possible. Its really a two part system, part 1 is the shaders…
No I use straight zbrush fibermesh. In the past I have used zbrush, then exported the fibermesh as curves. Then I would import the curves into Maya, and assign them Maya native HairSystem (nHair). I would use those controls to control the hair. For this project I wanted a larger volume of hair but more control, so I needed…
My sister and I both met our spouses via dating sites. She met her husband on Eharmony, which has a system I didn't care for. In theory, it does all the work of figuring out who you're compatible with and sending you the most likely matches - I didn't want that, but she's incredibly happy with her guy. I met my wife via…

Ok, how about I agree it's capable, but also agree that sony wont impliment this stuff right away. My points are that with a little creativity it could be used as an alternative to a purchace of a new PC and still have most of the functionality. My comments on the speed issue were based off the claim that using a single…
Majority of people doing game dev will have some sort of intel/nvidia setup. I'm on a intel q6600 quad core machine, which is a few years old now but very capable. At the end of the day, Intel/nVidia combo seems to be the most stable, sure you can probably save a little and go the AMD/ATI route, but I wouldn't bother with…
