Re: Help with worn metal texture
You should try to watch quickly some of the tutorial resources I provided to have an idea of how to bake common maps like normal or AO map at least. For your question about the shape of the texture parts, this is where a good UV unwrapping is important. When you unwrap manually your UVs, apply a checkboard on your… -
Re: Mari or BodyPaint?
Mari is indeed, an overkill, especially in the Game Industry (we still have to get to using 4K as standard maps) so ZBrush and/or Mudbox should work just fine in many cases. However, if you're really going for the high end stuff, then Bodypaint will serve just fine, and you're after the extreme movie look in minute pore… -
Re: Investigation: A Video Game Studio From Hell
No one is defending it (the issue at the company at hand, if it is as bad as the article claims, which many peeps here are backing it up, then yes, change needs to happen). However, Jason is known for rushing to write articles as soon as he can without any kind of updates on his articles or even source checking. He also… -
Re: All red meat is bad for you, new study says
one thing i thought was interesting on the animal cruelty/protesting side of things is that my girlfriends brother is a game keeper, mainly looking after pheasants. I've been to his work and seen the pheasants and decided they have it pretty good (in contrast i once worked in a battery farm which started me cutting down in… -
Re: Help me buy a new computer for rendering and gaming
Considering a lot of the cool new features packed into UDK require DX11, I think the tipping point where limping along on DX10 cards is quickly approaching. You don't want to wait until games start requiring DX11 since tools and tech lead games by years. EDIT: I agree with EQ, just like processors you end up paying through… -
Re: [UE4][WIP] Chinese Courtyard
Update after a long time! That little scene isn't dead, but things have changed a bit for me. I'll be moving to another studio very soon. Long story short, I'm planning to expand this scene a bit and add some kind of narrative, but it will be more of a long term project. I'm doing one hour everyday, so the progress is… -
Re: HOW TO stand out to potential employers
I don't think many will necessarly quote and agree with me to a T on this, but let's make something clear. If you SUCK as an artist and you know of someone that KNOWS you. You will NOT get hired. Let me break it down as simple as this...If you were employed as a senior character artist at your job for example, and your… -
Re: Cyberpunk 2077 CG Teaser is out
not at all what i am saying. if anything i would say that my passion went from making characters to making games. i like what i do and never said i did't, i just lost my ego when it comes to my certain job and put it in the context of the bigger more important picture. i love my job and have fun everyday working with some… -
Re: [UDK] Medieval Horror Environment
I'm really curious to see the scene with light reworked :) Also, do you already know which props you will be adding to the scene? I am doing some considerations to myself given what I see in the scene(please feel free to ignore this if that's not what you are aiming for). To me it looks like a recently plundered and razed… -
