Re: are there any websites/phone apps that i can practice with nodes?
You could look for web based node editors. Like this one for WebGL shaders https://nme.babylonjs.com/#UPFJUT#2 It's a bit difficult to use on a small device though, so you should try forcing your browser into desktop mode, to override mobile layout limits. -
Re: What modern texture software can paint/project across multiple materials ( not UDIMs) ?
Not adding much to the thread sry, though wanted to mention this, in-case someone behind the scene actually did or does this. (pst, pm me. ;) ) Wouldn't that be the thing, in my naivety (or just not being very informed) i thought a coder C++ (+) person could "reverse engineer things (being illegal sure but for production… -
Re: How long to learn Houdini?
that's not far from the truth. I often wonder if its harder coming into Houdini with a technical background than it is without - personally I find it quite restrictive and weird as hell but that's probably because I could write the code(poorly) to do the thing myself and I don't like having to bend my design to the… -
Re: UDK - Material - Oren Nayar Help
Nice that there are DVD's now. :) Less slogging through Nvidia tech docs and MSDN and taking apart other peoples code to find what actually works. Also the packages here don't seem to show anything in my version of UDK, what release are you gents up to? Further: I built up a functional oren-nayar model. And I learned to be… -
Re: UDK - Material - Custom Tangent to World function without Node?
So now I am a bit confused...What custom Per-Pixel Reflection map node are you reffing too? Is this something that you wrote in HLSL? Can you try and explain what your end result is and maybe we can come up with a solution / work around. -
Re: What should I do in future? Can I get work VISA without degree?
Hi kunalht, I can give you my personal series of study references. Keep in mind it is my own study path, not what every TA should know. As a matter of fact "technical artist" is quite a blurry definition, they can be more art oriented: artists who can script a bit, or more code oriented: coders who write tools for the 3D… -
Affordable 3D render farm (maya/vray) for other 3D Artists, from a 3D artist.
I know the grind of wanting epic renders without a studio-sized wallet. That’s why I built my own render farm, piecing together custom nodes to crank out serious power without insane prices. Pick a tier that fits your deadline and budget, from a handful of nodes for small gigs to dozens for blazing-fast turnarounds. Thanks… -
Re: Which 5 software tools would you have installed on your computer in the event of a worldwide interne
1. ZBrush (PC or iPad) 2. Blender (can also be used as a note taking software, to write code and to watch videos) 3. Clip Studio Paint (or Procreate on iPad) 3. Unreal Engine (would also come with coding tools that would be useful) 5. Marmoset Toolbag Not Substance Painter as I personally think having a proper baker like… -
Re: AI Usage in Indie Games
I'd say it's not worth it to use LLM's for the vast majority of current use cases across *all* of the possible uses of AI. The main reason boils down to it being a short term "gain" for long term loss. When you use gen ai you are outsourcing thinking to it (for example you use it to generate concept art, the questions of…
