Re: Early-Late 2000s CGI/Game textures
Yeah there was a lot of dirty tricks, sometimes baked lighting was added to textures, sometimes it roughly matched the ambient lighting of the games. Often times photo textures had no strong directional lighting, but they did align the lighting that did exist to the scene so it looked more natural. -
microsoft flight sim in VR
so yeah, being playing this in VR, really awesome. You have no controls really, but if you just program in your flight then let the AI fly its just so much fun. really hope they put some controls in soon ie flying with your virtual hand, pressing buttons etc -
Re: My First 3D project. Your Thoughts? thanks in advance
Kudos on the work, and welcome to Polycount! I worked 6 years at Wayfair, helping lead the 3D team to make environments and renders like this. We developed a bunch of guidelines for how to make and light and shoot scenes. First thing, the lighting is very warm, not matching the reference. I’d suggest adjusting it brighter,… -

Re: Paint my wood!

First I'd marquee select each boards worth of wood and flip it so that the paint pattern doesn't continue from one board to the next. Then… -
Pilot WIP - Slight nudity
Hey, I'm working on a vintage pilot who flies a WW1 Fokker DR1 tri-plane and I'm just at a loss on what I could do with her outfit that would be cool. I'm trying for a vintage, yet unique type of feel. I know you guys have some awesome concept artists on here and thought I'd ask for advice! -
Re: Verasia - The Seven Sorcerer Town
Well done! The lighting could be a bit more interesting, but in the video, it seems like you'd probably run into problems fairly quickly since the surrounding mountains cast shadows across the whole valley with a lower sun. Since your main viewing angles might been pretty fixed as well, maybe rotating the sky would have… -
