Re: Are 3D character artists less in demand than environment artists?
A junior is always an investment, the market is full of ok-good juniors, so of course people go by the best portfolios first. But don't underestimate the influence of interviews. They are important to the junior as much as to the senior. At one point tho it is very likely more word of mouth and portfolio followed by that.… -
Re: Dough Boy - Cute Diesel Punk Infantry Robot
This is looking sweet, looking forward to seeing this one finished! Regarding some technical stuff though, unless you plan on including those cooling holes on the SMG in the Low-Poly, you'd be better off just modeling them as intrusions, and not making them actual holes. Also, you don't really need them to be perfect… -
Re: Maya wrap deformer, ugly results?
What you can do is set the Envelope to .5 (and adjust as needed later), Weight Threshold to 0, and turn off Auto Threshold. It's better but not great and is situational. I also just noticed that two attributes get added into the transform section of the cage object, dropoff and smoothness. I use wrap fairly often for… -
Re: Unreal Engine 4
Pretty much. Note that while you shouldn't export tangents you should export normals in some form, whether that's smoothing groups, Maya hard edges, or custom normals. Also make sure you've taken care of all the usual suspects--for instance put a triangulation modifier at the end of your Blender modifier stack because… -
Re: Vray for Maya Normal Map Problem
Normal maps and colour spaces is usually what messes up my normal maps in Maya. I dont mess around with offline rendering too much nowadays, but have you tried looking into the colour space for your normal maps? The standard file2d node in maya usually has it set to sRGB, you want to set this to RAW for your normal maps. I… -
Re: Arch Vis Kitchen Design
To really critique it we need to know what the goal of the design is. Is the space really shaped like that with windows like that, or were they just made up? I'm guessing it's made up? Can you make it up differently? Also with all design the end product is usually something intended to sell the design. So even if this… -
Re: Reset X-Form & move Pivot after Skinning (3DS Max/Dota2)
i got the same problem with my stuff when i`m trying to import from 3ds-ingame. usually i have to scale my items Upwards, because mine are too tiny if i leave them original sized. The axis sistem is also distorted from time to time. usually, multiple imports with small axis modifications/rotations/scalling fix the problem… -
Re: Abandoned Kitchen [UE4] -- [COMPLETED]
@Vincent3d Thanks man. You said it, it is a really simple setup: * One point light for the ceiling lamp (a warm yellowish color) * One point light in the basement (also a warm color but almost red) * Global illumination turned on (If it's not on as default, [I usually turn it off at start]) * Post-process volumes to get my… -
Re: Capturing flash video from screen?
Realplayer is like Quicktime or Acrobat Reader, you don't want to install that bloat-, toolbar- or adware if there is already something better and opensource/ free out there. People having those installed are usually less informed about tools out there and usually the ones that don't notice the added toolbars in their… -
Re: Stuff to do in Seoul (ot)
There are a lot of beautiful places to visit in South Korea (I didn't find the DMZ beautiful, but I was there for "business" and not pleasure). If you visit traditional shops--always negotiate the price (tourists usually just pay the asking price and you can get a lot better deals if you play the game). Too bad that you…
