Wow, Walterlow, that's incredibly appreciated! Unfortunately when I tried to run it, I get the following error: "Unknown property: "pos" in $selection" I copied your script and saved it as a .ms file then selected all of the biped bones and hit Run Script. Tried selecting the keyframes themselves and got the same error.…
Scanline is fine. Mental Ray in 2012 is fine. (but unfortunately, neither of these help with baking down PBR) Vray in 2012, 2014 has this issue. Mental Ray in 2017 has this issue. I can't quite believe that Normal Maps cannot work properly in a simple RTT setup. Has anyone had similar issues? Thanks for helping Eric!
Really nice ! but the chainmail needs work, check this out : http://www.polycount.com/forum/showpost.php?p=1115091&postcount=156 the download link to the requried plugin there doesn't work anymore though - but I found a site linking to that plugin :…
I had goofed around with this before. I don't recall if this is the site I used, but it's the same effect. You just paint or render a depth map and the tool does the rest. I found this while trying to remember the name, it covers some other techniques for doing it by hand.…
Thanks for the link Velvet! It was very interesting. I did a bit more hunting an actually found this article on how Ubisoft created Paris in Unity. https://www.theverge.com/2014/10/31/7132587/assassins-creed-unity-paris Seems a lot of it, as you said, is taken from experts in the field or old documents with a lot of…
Are you just comparing production budget to box office returns to get those numbers? Because studios don't get all the money from the box office, and marketing costs add a ton on to the budget. Dreamworks definitely lost money on Peabody:…
What the heck... Why was the final submission thread just closed? I just wanted to submit my stuff and given my calculation, it should be Monday, August 4th 2014, 21:27 - aka 9:27PM right now! The deadline is 23:59, why can't I participate anymore? I'm not exactly pleased... It even states it here. :(
I mean if it's an alien isolation inspired environment, why don't you look at concept art for alien isolation: http://www.avpgalaxy.net/2014/10/08/new-alien-isolation-concept-released/ https://www.pinterest.com/pin/392516923750610214/ (looks cool) Anyway if you're doing a full environment wouldn't you normally start with a…
I always liked max (I'm still on 2009) more but few days ago I downloaded maya 2014 trial and have to say it's growing on me pretty fast. With some customization and few small scripts workflow is really smooth. I might pull a trigger on it to be honest. Was going to upgrade max but I'm not so sure anymore.
No, I'm the cause of my own pain. In my defense though, I am doing 100+ models at once. (So many in part for low/high Normal map baking so no model cage overlaps). I'm on 2014 Max still so yea, maybe they have fixed things since then. But you use what you have.
