Re: Autodesk increase Student Pricing Model for 2013 - by £4000
Hmm, that's interesting. I'd like to know how they're doing this. As far as I can tell, it's not so much that you can't upgrade Max or Maya for the old price, it's more that you just cannot purchase Maya or Max on their own as a student version, you have to buy the Suite. Once you have the Suite, you can then only upgrade… -
Re: Portfolio critic
Hey! Thought I'd point out some things out, even though I'm pretty beginner myself. - The layout is good, all the contact info right up top and nice and bold. - Perhaps get rid of the 'contacts' section (your info is up top!) and perhaps put the image on your resume page. - I'm not sure if having the links page is… -
Re: Made an iPhone Game - Marty Mongoose
Thanks a ton guys! @ Ben - Thanks for the kind words. I started on C# but I think it was a bit too heavy for me at the time. So I switched to Java Script. It is a very easy language to learn and there is a lot of support for it. I built most of the thing in Java using Unity as the Engine. There is a lot of pre-built things… -
Re: [GAME] We who are about to Die! (+ video inside)
We who are about to Die has officially gone out of alpha and into beta. (aka alpha 1.0 or beta 0.0) This makes the exhausted game-dev happy. I split development into 4 major cycles/updates, 2 for alpha. 2 for beta. Now 2 are totally done and already parts of update 3! I would say the game is about 65% done. Now comes a big… -
Re: E3-Nintendo
I hope the guy who leaked the info to the press will be quartered. He is single handily responsible for ruining Nintendo's plans. From what I understand, this console shouldn't even have seen the light of day until E3 2012. They where forced into a reveal (if they would have denied it and would have revealed it next year,… -
Re: UV sets between Maya and Max, helpppp :\
why on earth do you want to maintain 2 uv channels? why not use 1 layout for both models. converting maps from 1 to another is possible and it reduced the complexity of what you are trying to do. Anywho! You can Copy and Paste UV's in max just fine, providing you haven't changed your vertex indexes. Import the OBJ(as an… -
Re: Trouble learning
I was in your position a few years ago. I had gotten to grips with uvs and displacement mapping but game textures and the hi-lo poly thing was a mystery. Making good game textures is still quite a process, so I took an online workshop and that fixed me right up :) I have gotten all my 3d info from tutorials, and with all… -
Re: Substance - Bug Reports and Feature Requests
Painter Feature request - I'd love to be able to bake information from my mesh based on my layer stack. For example, let's say I have stamped out a bunch of normal map info from alphas. I'd like to take that and use that combined normal map to bake a different curvature/AO map that I can then feed into generators higher up… -
Re: Tips for video tutorials?
Do it in text. It's searchable so when people need to come back and dig up that one nugget or that setting their missing, they can do it easily. People can skim it faster without accidentally missing a nugget of info. If its written and formatted properly it can get the same info across quicker than a video can. You can… -
Re: Low Polygon Joints - What is the best way?
@ Someone -Not to be a jerk, but you should at very least give credit to the places you get tutorials from esp. when reposting. That first screen shot is from Jonathan Rush's (a.k.a. Pig Brain) basic deformation tutorial. The second is from one, animated gif, is from Ben Mathis's (a.k.a. poopinmymouth) Limb Deformation…
