Re: Future of 3D modeling
The near future could be easily subdiv models + normal maps + displacements + GI real time renderers + realistic shaders, so with modelling, i imagine better tools to "draw" polygons to make subdiv models. The modelling tools are improving so fast, and a good example is now with modo 401. Tools can be better, but at the… -
Re: Cinematics Wanted
Try the cgnetwork articles. They seem to cover stories on all the best cinematics. Warhammer 40k intro for example http://www.cgnetworks.com/story_custom.php?story_id=2538&page= You could also try digging out the websites of the folks that are the best in the bizz when it comes to cinematics. Blizzard, Blur studios, Robot… -
Re: Smoothing group tutorial
I don't know Eric, I think mostly people are just lazy, and slow (in the head). Smoothing groups are very easy to understand, and they are in the frickin help file! I just made this cause I have seen way too many models in PnP that have 400 smoothing groups from the default creation, and haven't been touched by the artist.… -

minimal scene in max, very low FPS
Hey hey, I'm working on a scene @ work thats roughly 40k triangle in max. There's around 10 materials in the scene, one of which is a multi-sub with about 20 other materials in side of it. Some other materials on objects are attached, but not setup in the material editor. When viewing the scene, I am getting ~2 frames per… -
[wanted] texture artist
I am working on a couple of character models and I need a good texture artist to help me create some decent textures. The texture is a single 1024x1024 sheet but their are many individual objects. This is not a *well* paid position, but I can throw in an old SpacePilot 3d controller (retailed for $400 back in the day), or… -
Windows Zbrush 4r3 (and up) license for sale....
I hope this isn't against the rules or anything but I have a digital (legit) copy of Zbrush 4 for sale...the license info I have from Cleverbridge says 4R3 but from my understanding, this covers the newest version as well. Anyway, I'd like to get $400 for it, which makes this half price!! Provided that this isn't against… -
Re: [Finished] Sturmgewehr 44 / STG 44
Day 8 Hi! Done quick sculpt pass (very simple) and started to make Mid Poly. I think I'll do around 35-40k Triangles. Spent too much time to try to decimate one piece for test bake :( Boring screenshots are coming next few days before Texturing! 7800 Tris for this thing: MidPoly will be finished tomorrow I think as this is… -
Re: UDK asset polygon limit?
It depends on what you use the asset for. If its a big center piece object then you can easily get away with 20k-40k but generaly small stuff i'd stick with below 1k-2k. most important thing is the silouette. Look at what the minimum number of polygons are that are needed for your model to match the silouette and stick to… -
Re: scifi gun
Kinda going along with what everybody else said... 40k tris is a lot, but looking at your silhouette, I expected less than 15k. A large portion of your geometry is used in areas where no silhouette is needed, like many of the recesses and smaller details. I think the design is nice, and you have a shit ton of detail, which…
