Character roadmap?
Hey Polycount users, I've been using 3DS Max for about 1.5 - 2 years now. The people who taught me the program never set higher level challenges sadly to us. It was always stuff like boxes, trees and cans. Since every touching the software I always wanted to design characters, and this year I made a resolution to myself… -

Hey guys, I had the pleasure to do some research or mainly testing on that subject, (applications which convert bitmaps to normals) and I decided to put my conclusions on a place for my team and everyone.

Tokyo Metro 2033 WIP
I recently got back from a holiday in Japan. Having to catch the train everywhere I quickly realised how awesome a lot of the stations looked especially when compared to Australia.

Re: Shadow distortion

I saved it on my desktop, it was 105 Mb, then converted it to a jpg of 9 Mb in Photoshop, but it still looked fine. Then just dragged it into Dropbox. And then opened the dropbox folder on my phone, and that's when it looks bad. So, i'd… -
