You're still looking at this from old perspectives. I'm not talking about selling copies. I'm talking about selling work, throw that other concept out. A contractor doesn't primarily sell the houses he builds, he sells his labor. It's not an issue of "he'd paid $5 bucks for a copy and this guy paid $50". It's more "this…
The industry has never been better for self-employed creative artists. We are spoiled rotten with amazing low-price tools that allow us to make a living or decent side income. Maya Lt for $20 a month. Blender for free. Unity is free. Unreal is $20 a month. Quixel suite I paid some super low price for. Playmaker for Unity…
the good thing is, everyone in this industry gets older every day ;) The reason you see many people age 20 - 30 in games companies isn't necessary age discrimination. It could also be the fact that the industry is very young and just started growing like mad in the last 15 - 20 years, when teens and young people made their…
Hello everyone. I've been looking at 2 games recently. Final Fantasy X and the latest Monster Hunter. I remember really being in love with the FFX colors in both the world and the characters. I never really discovered why. So how do people come up with color schemes? The DOTA workshop document said all of their characters…
Before anything i was very warry bout them at 1st & still might be since i never used the tablet while on the net. Yea Celosia, i tried to do the same thing though too many drops of the pen terminated my old one. :( Yes to XP pen, i managed to jump on XPpen early only because my wacom was no longer supported or a product…
Ok, I am almost done! This thread has taught me so much. So here is what I got and the two things I have yet to figure out. I am doing a FK/Ik mix on the arm per [ame=" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j8UVIsjskE0"]Rigging the Character - Part 12 - Arms Blending IK/FK - YouTube[/ame] The issue is, and maybe its unsolvable…
Just a quick question. Doesn't ZBrush make use of fall offs for the brushes? Why are the "falloffs" essentially being painted into the alpha's directly? Anyway an alternative way to make an alpha would be to sculpt a piece and bake a heightmap from it. Since you are not entirely sure what an alpha is I suggest doing it…
You know, this summer I unironically considered signing a contract with russian military. What? 50/50 chance I can zero my comrades and cross the front to join the proper side in a paid living I might actually enjoy. Odds much less with LinkedIn. This is your brain on CG. This is how psychotic you get when your craft of…
using keyboard entry (a rollout in the creation panel) and the click on 'create' or with maxscript e.g:Box lengthsegs:1 widthsegs:1 heightsegs:1 length:50 width:50 height:50 mapcoords:on pos:[0,0,0] isSelected:on
This a thousand times. Since that's your only layer, as far as the exporters are concerned the transparent areas have nothing, so how would it know what color to fill the rbg portion with? White just happens to be what Photoshop does, maybe some programs fill with black, etc. But the way to fix this is hilariously easy.…
