Re: Armor Him! (Friendly competition)
[ QUOTE ] To keep it fairly even i've come up with a set of simple rules. 1) Keep it under 3050 polygons. (Armor+Base) 2) Total texture area no bigger than 1 512. You can mix it up into multiples if you like. (4x256x256 ect...) 3) No lowering the polycount of the base Assume the engine only loads the peices of armor on top… -
Re: ps3 and rendering with quads
I've not yet worked with anything that uses Tris instead of quads. I work with PS3 and 360, but I've not been made aware of any "quad beats tri" code (we doe have rock beats scissors code). As I'm sure you are aware, a triangle is the smallest polygon you can have. When you have one triangle drawn, drawing a second means… -
Re: How much of a sinner am I? I have no idea what I'm doing.
I must be out of touch or missing something?! But typically when blocking out - then further refining a workable base mesh from scratch, especially for surfaces that require reflective materials. It is usually best practice based off of experience, to start with minimal geometry (...low density topology) instead of… -
[Position Filled] Toy Story Woody Face Model
==Update=== I have now chosen a person for the job. Thank you all for your quotes, and I look forward to doing more business here. I am in need of someone who can do a quick 3D model of a toy head.

Some toolbag questions from a new user
Hi, I've just purchased Toolbag, and the results look great. I'm content. 🙂 A few newbie questions: * Is there a way to toggle polygon smoothing? I mean switching between visible, faceted polygons and averaged normals for the illusion of a smooth surface. * Is there an auto-smooth option with an adjustable normal angle? *… -

Optimizing Aprilia Bike Model
This Bike Model is currently being used in a mobile game, I need to optimize the file and wanted to find out what the best way to go about doing that it. The current size of the FBX file is 3.31 mb and contains 4 models and 7 joints. The highest poly model is 10,000 polygons and the other 3 are LODs, so they dont have… -
Re: Z-Brush Beginner Question - Importing without Triangulation and just Quads?
NGons are not supported, but they're not going to be deleted on import. If you import a mesh that has nonstandard polygons (more than 4 sides) zbrush will pop up a message asking if you want to split those polygons into sets of symmetrical triangles or a combination of quads and triangles. Whichever action you choose will… -
Re: Head model : my 1st sculpt on mudbox
People are basically saying you should try drawing a face first because if you can't draw it, you can't model it either, simple as. And drawing takes way less time than sculpting. I too would recommend that you try and draw a face from reference, then turn over the page and try and draw it again, then look at a ref and see…
