Re: Solutions for sculpting tileable textures (other than bricks) in zbrush 4.
Your UVs shouldn't actually matter for this (they should actually be the size of the patch near 0-1 space, all welded together though). Did you append the plane to anything, use GOZ, deform it...? Zbrush's weird coordinate space annoys me and can screw up things like this. I replicated your issue of the seams not lining up… -
Re: A Square Concrete Block Thingy
1) Rebar has ribs, right now it looks like copper tubing. The ribs are there to help the concrete grab onto the bar. 2) It would have helped to have the rebar in there when you did the sculpting, that way you could have built up/down around the base of the bars which would help the bar look less "placed and floaty". 3) The… -
Re: Lil' Ghost Rider - CC2010 Entry
Thanks Disanski. Yep the jacket is supposed to be leather. I'm still working out the spec trying to get it to replicate leather well. Motorcycle jackets are typically not quite as shiny as a traditional 'wet-look' leather jacket, and have a much softer specular. Pedals can be resized without problem so I'll look into that.… -
Re: Resident Evil 5 360 demo - Anybody playing?
Just finished playing through, seemed pretty cool. the environments look fantastic, nice to see some quality linear style environs rather than the mass replicate/quality over quantity of the recent rash of open world games. the texture work is really good, normals dont show up that well though it seems, but the overall… -
Re: How to achieve a limited color palette art style?
a post process material would be the simplest way to do it. you can quantize the screen coords to give yourself "lower resolution" fairly easily palletising scenecolor shouldn't be a wildly different process to toon shading in principle (i.e use LUTs) - my best guess is that you'd want to work in HSV space, quantise and… -
Re: Sculpts heads, newbie
I would suggest using eyes with an iris texture to help get a feel for the size of the eye, because right now they are really big. Books are cool, but too me the best references are in 3d, I would recommend grabbing some 3d scans and try to replicate them and try to understand what all the volumes are while doing so. The… -
Re: AKS - FPS Prop
I dont think many 3d artists are also firearms experts or experts in the field of the thing that they are trying to replicate. They just do a lot of research beforehand. Having said that, i've seen a lot of games that dont put focus on accuracy, even those that are simulators or pretend to be one. But they still try to… -
Re: Walther p22 Based Pistol-Game Model *Need Advice*
Being as your title says "Walther p22 Based Pistol-Game Model" then I may be wrong, and just ignore this, but if your aiming to replicate a p22, the magazine and bullets aren't accurate. They both look much more like a 9mm. 22lr rounds are rim fire, so they don't have a visible blasting cap, and are much skinnier... also… -
Re: Ferrari LaFerrari
You don't have to worry about any modeling techniques needed for baking if you're not going to bake anything. Concentrate on replicating the same exact look as in your references and use whatever topology you need to get the correct look. The bumpiness is because your mesh isn't uniform and the surfaces aren't smooth in… -
Re: [UDK] Small Modular Chapel
Since you're on a tight deadline Here are some quick fixes I would recommend: 1. Lighting: - Get a fill light in there. There should be no full black in a scene with such strong lighting from the windows. - Speaking of -- make the lighting come exclusively from the windows. Gothic churches were designed with this in mind…
