Re: Sketchbook: Zetheros
Was hoping I'd be 100% complete with the retopo, but there's still a few small bits to complete. Bake coming next week. I haven't made lowpolys of the swamp abyssals yet, so that might come after, or I'll start work on the arboreal vampires. Total tris coming in at 83,353. Have a great week! -
Re: TexTools for Blender
Thanks MACHIN3 The wrapping tools got some major improvements in the last few weeks. Development source code is available via GIT release likely out next week. Creating icons and UI is just as important as the code, I sometimes get bored with just the coding and need some creative distraction on the project in order to… -
Re: Reflections on The Game Industry as a 3D Artist
Continuing from my previous post ... GenAI has also resulted in a lot of layoffs, for 2 reasons. One is companies got rid of employees in favor of using AI because they thought it would be cheaper. The other is AI ended up being more expensive than companies expected (I am not surprised) so then they got rid of more… -

Beginner Unreal Engine C++ Programmer Looking for a Project to Hone Their Skills
Hello everyone, I’m a beginner C++ programmer and Unreal Engine user looking for a project I could believe in and in which to hone our skills together.

Re: The wonders of technical art (Unreal Engine)
I would like to share something with you guys, that I discovered some time ago, but I didn't have nice use cases to show it off. Now in the ray marcher, it saves me a lot of time, and simplifies and shortens the hlsl code that I actually need to write. Hopefully it will be useful for someone else too. It is about adding… -
Re: Programmning vs Artist in the Game Industry
I've spent 5 years as a low level graphics engine programmer for a UK based studio, now spent 5 years doing game design & art, I have concluded...

Re: recommended, intuitive compositing app?

The rendering performance of AE is bad as well, it freezes almost to death with compressed footage other…
