Re: Left 4 Dead
I agree with Ninjas, I was actually quite surprised to see that no one commented on the visuals in L4D. Now, part of the problem is the Source engine in that every game that I have ever seen on it feels exactly like half-life 2, which in turn looks and feels like half-life 1 x2. So as a result I saw this game and… -
Re: How you decide how much you will chamfer an edge? Is there a rule or just random?
Have a look at reference pictures to see what your edge should look like. Even so if someone comments on the edge sharpness you should take notice. Edges support a highlight and without any tech knowledge the edges on the main body and particularly the holes really does look too tight. It depends on what the model is for.… -
Re: Camera for textures?
For compacts with a nice zoom range the Panasonic Lumix's are nice cameras. The have quality Leica lenses, and sharpness is very consistent corner to corner. There's nothing worse than trying to make a seamless texture when the center of the image is sharp, while the corners are soft. For a smaller zoom range, but much… -
Re: Zoids: Geno Saurer WIP
ok guys little update, reinforcing lines SUCK took me a while to move them all around so ide get a halfway decent result. outside of the tooth is still messed up, so many lines going through that one place its making it a sharp edge rather than flowing from the top of the head down to the tip of the tooth. Might have to… -
Re: WIP Mauser C96
Accuracy wise, almost there. Quite good, but has some rough areas. Edges are too sharp in a lot of places. Zoom out, edges that start to alias badly will not transfer well on a bake. Rear sight is missing an aperture notch to actually aim through. Also the hinge hole on the frame looks like a deformed circle. Grip and the… -
Re: My art thread - AFsoft
You've got a lot of good stuff in here, I've enjoyed looking through it. One thing I have noticed though is that you do tend to have consistently sharp-edges in a lot your lowpoly models. I don't know if your bake quality just wasn't quite there or if you forgot to bake entirely, but I think that working to create smooth… -
Re: [WIP] SHIFT - Game Cinematic Trailer Project - Environment Artist Dev Log - Third-Year Uni Project
I would like to share our animatic done by our amazing concept artists Valen Kua and Nanxi Ong: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8JXgxgZlwa0 Here are some shots that I assembled the character rigs and animation done by my teammates and I have also added in some basic lighting in Unreal Engine just for the feel and vibe.… -
Re: IN PROGRESS: DDO Cavity Generation
Thanks! Unfortunately I can confirm that the [sharp] layer does NOT match DDO's own result when reloaded as an input map. Nor with quality curvature enabled or disabled. I noticed that the [sharp] layer from DDO however closely matches the curvature result from NDO. Which leads me to think that DDO uses the same method to… -
Re: Swizzle's thread of stuff and things
Eraserhead: I wasn't sure when I started if the welds would read as well as I was hoping, so I'm glad they work. rasmus: That's partly my fault and partly Modo's. Modo doesn't do smoothing groups, so the only ways to get sharp edges are to use a material that affects every edge on the model depending on how sharp it is or… -
Re: Seeking critique on an Overwatch style weapon I am modeling
you've got too many straight 90° angles and too sharp edges overall. on Overwatchj everything is nicely angled, or beveled to chunky 45° with soft edges to catch highlights nicely. Check out the overwatch high poly renders on artstation.
