Other options beside MAX for indie/marketplace dev.
I'm slowly translating into the indie market in the following months. I've been working in the industry as a 3D Artist the past few years, but for a bunch of reasons I realized it was not for me. Instead, I'm going back to school to learn programming and start my own independent studio. In the meantime, and while I'll be… -
[Maya] Issue with references sharing shading networks
I have an issue where if I create references to scenes with shared shading networks, it works only as long as I only reference one file. Ex: I reference in scene A with a cube that has shader shdrA into a new scene (shared shading networks enabled in reference options). I can now duplicate that reference as much as I like… -
THRONE ROOM Abandoned Green Steel Tower Justo
On strange lands, a tower is found, consumed by trees. Its top floor holds a throne room, a grand but perhaps menacing place in other times. Was it abandoned? The colossal roots piercing metal walls, the vines consuming and claiming spots suggest otherwise. Whether this empire or kingdom moved on or was taken out by force,… -

Also im mostly self taught, dropped out of the art courses that i signed up for many moons ago and didnt learn that much… -
Re: [Blender 2.8] Bevel shader normal map baking artifacts on flat surfaces
Well, I'd say that it is completely opposite here. This is a test, so of course I want to "bruteforce" it to see what this technique is capable of rather that relying on some simplified specific case that works fine. I would argue that this is very far from worst case (High-poly geo wise). To make myself a bit more clear,… -

Re: Software Investment?
Would it be possible to open Maya 2016 files in Maya LT and vise versa? No. I personally don't believe in the whole subscription thing at all, especially for programs that are gimped with arbitrary limitations like the polygon limit that you mention. My advice would be for you to get one-time licenses for programs that are… -
Re: Online Applications & Connections
Yup! I've got a daily schedule. I keep a written record of who I apply to every day and what I like about their company. After 5-7 days, depending on whether I sent it on a weekend, I'll follow-up to a company in addition to applying to a new one. I've gotten a response around 1 for every 10 that I send out! Though it's… -
Re: Teach me 2 art?
thank you, Avanthera. Thanks for the feedback! To sum up, are you saying that I need to keep the lights out of the darks and leave details to the lights or darks, but not both? I'm having a hard time getting my head around all of this. I bought Scott Robertson's new book,…
