Re: Working with tilable with limited textures
1 4k texture is more than enough to create a level for a mobile game. I would stick with tiling the ground texture. I am not sure what engine you are working with but if your engine supports blending you can get enough variation with 3 channels of blends. for the props you might want to make a texure atlas.. less texture… -
Re: Metal Specular Maps - Your Methods
tinman: i'm not using fx files here, these are renders using a 'blend' material. it's an extremely simple setup, using two different standard materials in each of the two slots, blending at 50%. i created the images just as prototype stuff to show to programmers. looks AWESOME eric. i want to play with that! i wonder, with… -
Re: there's a new pope!
Ah, I see our next religion-hating thread is already in full force. Some guy is elected to some job that will have as little impact on most of this forum's readers as what they're serving for breakfast on the International Space Station, but we just can't let a chance to spew venom at organized religion slip by. Why, I… -
Re: Free Maya/max cgfx/fx Shader
- the darker blacks, maybe d3d viewport in general has different gamma or so? - the tangent differences, maybe maya just computes them better, nevertheless I can experiment with that (send me a testmodel) - cubeambi, so you want hemispheric lighting based on two colors (sky, ground) next to cubemap ambi - blending, I'd… -
Re: beach details and details
Ahh, if you are going to use a texture like that, you could just fix it to be seamless and have the lighting you want &c, get some normals out of CrazyBump or any of its alternatives, and just blend in that shell-strewn texture as is often done on terrain... you could create a blend mask so it doesn't fade out in the… -
Re: Sculpey
And if you want some thing a little more rigid, there's extra firm super sculpey. It holds details much better. Also I would invest in some sculpey softener. Just put a dab of it on the end of a synthetic brush, and you can clean off any fingerprints. It also works great with blending things together. Like if you want to… -
Re: Skin and Weights
What package? Max? Weight the major joints first, use a large brush on a high strength setting. Be rough. Paint out any weights the shouldn't be there, like right thigh weights on the the characters left thigh. Remove calf weighting from the thigh, thigh from the claf etc. You goal in the first 5 minutes is to get all the… -
Re: Feedback on Darius model
Great links! Just a heads up that the main pose is drawn in perspective (we look at the head from below and on top of the feet) so you can't simply measure down to the toes. Then again, you normally wouldn't measure hair that's sticking up like that to have a better base of comparison to usual proportions, but I guess any… -
[Riot Art Contest] Lucian and Thresh
Topic by TO23 · · Home› Contests & Challenges Archives› Riot Art Contest› Riot Art Contest - IllustrationFinal Result Some thoughts: I'm really really happy that I participated in this contest. I chose to do something that was way out of my skill level due to the complexity. For me as a student, the point of this contest was never the prize, I saw it more like a challenge and an opportunity to push my limits. I'm glad I chose… -
Acey's Dump, V2 - The Dumpening
Heya peeps, Decided to start a new thread where I can dump my stuff in, hit and quit it as they say for my old one.
