Re: dDo2 gloss map import fail into UDK
I don't know if I'm understanding the above correctly, but I found that sometimes when I rendered to texture from 3ds Max some of the maps wouldn't import into UDK. In the end (eventually) I found in photoshop that converting it from a 16 bit image to an 8 bit image made it work again? -
Re: DDO Seam Issues!!!!
You can set your edge padding when you pack your unwrap. It's the amount of pixels between each UV shell. This is to prevent edge bleed between UV islands for both baking and mip-mapping.(1 pixel=1 mip level up to 16 pixels=5 mip levels) -
Portrait Art Crit
Hello ~ I've been working on a series of portraits for a group project in school. These are two I've recently finished.

Fan art. Okay or not?
I'm looking for inspiration for making 3d models. I'm looking for concepts already drawn out so I can focus on texturing and modeling.

Re: THRONE ROOM - The Zeppelin Throne - limeforce
I was thinking of posting some images tonight, but what I have so far is still so lacking that it'll have to wait until tomorrow. I'll get some sleep, try out a few more things and post something more fun in 16 hours from now. -
Re: Working towards that perfect job
i can confirm that i am modeling car parts 8-10 hour a day at work, after that my motivation to start modelling something at home is near zero even if you manage to somehow motivate yourself, its not very healthy to sit 16+ hours in front of a screen -
Re: Have you ever fully raged at a game? If so, what game?
im surprised at the sheer number of people raging about newer games (3D days on) and not so much people raging at older games of the 8-16 bit time frame? Seems alot of people rage at new games because there more popular and people ruin the experience for them? (TF2?) -
Re: Cerberus(FFVII Gun) : Next gen asset giveaway
On a minor note, the rifling curves along the barrel; this twist is what causes the bullet to spin. For pistols, you'll typically see one complete revolution every 16-32 inches. You'll note that the view down the barrel is what you see at the beginning of almost every James Bond movie:
