Re: You're doing it wrong.
Alright, since vig went through the trouble of either finding or making this silly flow cart, i'm going to post a few of my thoughts on prop workflows. Now, first let me acknowledge that every project is different, and engine as well, so some principals may not always apply. But i would like to think so of these ideas are… -
Banksy opens bizarre 'pet shop'
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/7662627.stm British graffiti artist Banksy has opened his first official exhibition in New York. Set inside a fake pet store, works such as a robotic monkey and fish-fingers swimming in a goldfish bowl aim to question the relationship between human beings and animals. Heather… -
I built a tool I wished existed for batch rendering PBR materials
I used to waste hours doing the same repetitive setup every time I made a new texture- loading maps into Blender, Substance or Marmoset, rebuilding a material from scratch, tweaking nodes, lighting, and setting up a clean render just to see how the texture actually looked. If you’re a texture/technical artist, you know the… -
Re: Trying to fake DOF in scene, not game (help!)
If you downloaded my scene, then you saw that I already had a camera set up with the objects in much the same way that should have done something similar and they did NOT show DOF at ALL when the layers and settings said they should (both camera DOF and post process). I had screenshots included as well for what I was… -
Re: Expanding DBuffer Decals
Optimization There are 3 areas of optimization I want to talk about. 1. Material pins: There are now two pins that deal with decal opacity: Opacity & MultiOpacity. How do they interact with each other? I decided to make it like this: If MultiOpacity is connected, the opacity will be read from this attribute, otherwise the… -
Re: Need Maya 2008 workflow advice urgently
I created some user marking menus for some of the functions that I use on a regular basis (and also made some very simple scripts for things like mirroring and instancing etc) Just stick em in your 'My Documents\maya\x.x\prefs\markingMenus' then goto Window > Settings/Preferences > Marking Menu Editor. You should see… -
Re: Texturing feedback - AKM
That sort of research/thinking is key to getting a believable look. if this is an 'in service' weapon for an actual military I don't think it would be allowed to get into this state - you'd revarnish or replace parts before it happened and I'm positive you wouldn't let anything get rusty (rusty bits stop gun shooting). If… -

My Problem is that i dont get the nice Marmoset Toolbag 2 Look in Unreal Engine 4. I already tweaked the scene a bit, but i think there is a lot to tweak. I like the style in… -
Re: Can I get some 3ds max to Modo tips?
Re: tools most tools are by default click to activate. You can change tools to auto-activate though, so simply selecting the tool will make it active. This can be done from the tool pipeline, which by default layout is on the right hand side under the "lists" tab. That's also a good way to check what tools / constraints…
