Re: Mesh export settings
Hi! I would look for more detailed explanations in the documentation, for example Autodesk 3ds Max FBX Plug-in Guide\Split Per-Vertex Normals -
Re: [Feedback needed] Sci-fi Environment Art - Games Art Student
Hi, welcome to polycount! Right off the bat id say your composition is interesting, id be interested to see some concept art of any references you're using! Your lighting is looking a bit intense as far as brightness which is leaving everything feeling flat I think, and your textures look very low res. Some of your rocks… -
Re: Junior Character Artist
I can share mine though it was a while ago. I'd say it really depends on the studio and how well they have organised their onboarding process and what a junior is expected to take on as responsibilities. Usually there is the studio wide onboarding where they will cover everything from studio overview, projects, codes of… -
Re: Hard surface workflow for games?
So guys, its ok - there are many ways, but what is the fastest, IMO: the fastest way to work with hard surface is dynamesh/clip brushes/zmodeler -> combined fashion, but there is always a huge slowdown when retopo this mess of polys; 2) subd in zbrush using zmodeler - u could model everything using separate pieces (eq… -
Re: "The heavy toll of making games in the San Francisco Bay Area"
One thing I keep seeing in GDC talks and similar things is these CEO's wrapped up in controversy doing everything but owning their fuck-ups.

Re: Death of THQ?
Well, I'm going to echo you on that Crazyfool ;) and say that you can't really use Halo as an example either in that case. They already had a huge fan base and the eyes of the gaming world was on 343 to see if this up and coming studio could shoulder the Bungie halo legacy. I also imagine they probably had a higher than… -
Re: Art Is Never Too Subjective To Judge(new paper)
That's totally a sensible idea! It's just that I think you're (dramatically) overreaching with it. Production of art certainly involves a multitude of objective factors -- those the factors when we self-criticize, when we learn, and when we study. But the piece of art, regardless of its many objective qualities, is not in… -
Re: Likeness - Looking but no seeing
On the subject of lenses, here is a very obvious example : http://oneslidephotography.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/Best-Lens-for-Portrait-.jpeg And another example, showing how lenses vary throughout a movie : https://vimeo.com/95194792 Regarding Zbrush : The Zbrush viewport is not 3d at all, so unless you are working… -
Re: My development thread.
Not bad for a first sculpt. First ask yourself what it is about this sculpt that gave you trouble, you mentioned stretched polys, not enough detail etc. Make a list of these problems & do the research on how to solve them. For example, stretched polys & various other mesh deformities will accumulate overtime so I think…
