Hey Guys, My first gaming project was released on XboxLive:Indie Games yesterday. minus points for originality as its based on the good old 'tower defence' concept, but it started out as a learning experience which evolved into a game and obviously my mate and I are feeling quite pleased with ourselves at the moment. . The…
i more or less just started off looking at epics material to see how certain material expressions work, than went off trying to think my way through ideas and how i could accomplish them with the material expressions i know about. i find once you know a certain amount about it all once you see something you can think if…
[ QUOTE ] AZ: a two way trip from NY to Dallas and back was like $97 at the time (2 years ago), i guess it also depends on time of the year, i just looked it up now its like $150-200 could still do it with those prices [/ QUOTE ] I guess that sounds about right, actually. I just expected a flight going that distance to be…
I learned qwerty for maya at school. I learned I prefer maya over max at school. The 18 hours a day I spent at school experimenting ahead of the course material I did on my own accord. 5 years later I re-learned maya and a new way of navigation, controls, normal mapping, texturing, and virtually everything that wasn't…
I import the obj file into Headus and make my cuts and then let the program pack it the best that it can. If I try to keep peices together using a box, the progrmna never fully uses the texture sheet as much as it should, total failure. So I let the prog pack everything best it can and then I seperate them by polygon…

We have so that you can fall down into hollows but when you do you get into a stuck state. When you climb up this is the kind of animation you do. This is another character, Kate…
There are such huge numbers of different styles of explainer videos that you can use, and that is essential because some videos can be very useful and superior to others for certain reasons or item or administrations or for certain sorts of audience. Nevertheless, in general, while clarifying complex administrations…
Thank you. I know from before when you bake with average normals you can get skewing but when I did a sample bake where I have all my hard edges cut on the uvs I didn't see a difference between averaged and non averaged when baking with the setting in painter... so I thought maybe it treats it all as non averaged. When…
also, you might check how long your animation is, where it starts and which part of the timeline you are looking at. if you are using a 2 second animated texture and look at it from second 3 to 5 it wont animate unless you put it on loop. check the material editor, you can set the starting point of your ifl there.
Hi PolyCounters, Not sure whether this is the right place to post this or not (sorry if it isn't the right one). As a "soon to be graduate" young person , I will be leaving the comfort of my student life and entering the big and scary place known as the real world! As well as that(!), I'll also have to look for a real job…
