Re: WIP: Models for reel
I think MoP is a bit behind on Real Time Strategy specs; Command and Conquer games are pretty much the lowest spec around and even they use 1000+ polygons and 512^2 textures. On the high end of the spectrum, Company of Heroes uses 5000 polygon vehicles with 1024^2 textures. On top of that, all modern RTS games use normal… -
Re: Blended normals hack for fake SSS
i have a little bit of ambient going on, but its not different in one or the other, i am using chronic's shader by the way, as the one i have been using isn't for the maya viewport. but its the same thing really, the one i am using in production has a different spec model, but the results are similar, once you know how to… -
Re: The Escapade: Iris
Damn theres alot of drama in this thread, drama aside, I think this piece is super hot. Agreed the face is a little odd, but its definately intresting and adds sort of an uncomfortable feeling to the whole model. I think one thing that could help alot is the spec highlight thats painted on the lip gives a bit of an overly… -
Re: Graphics for the Wii
1. The characters in Twilight Princess are from around 3,000 - 7,000 tris - Link is around 7,000. Boss's would probably be more. Games like SSBB would use quite a lot more polys for characters. 2. For Wii its diffuse, Spec and some standard bump maps. Normal maps arnt really used on Wii.The characters use a few 256x256… -
Re: "The Industry" and Art Tests.
I'm actually planning on writing up my recent experience with the job hunt in an article. Over the last 3 months I was in contact with and did art tests for about 5 companies. I ended up having 3 onsite interviews and went with the best choice for myself. Each company had a totaly different test with different specs. Some… -

Clone-brush on multiple layers at once - Photoshop or seperate tool?
I'm sure this is something many of us have found themselves wanting at one point or another, so I thought: let's think about this together. I'm talking about being able to use the clone-brush on all of your different textures at once, so normal, spec, diffuse... This is something I've been thinking about for a long time… -
Marmoset 3D Blanket
Hey guys, I'm trying to get as much detail out of Marmoset as I can for a blanket I'm working on. Does anyone know of any tuts or better workflow for achieving a soft 'feeling' blanket in Marmoset? This isn't for a game, but I do need the blanket to be rendered out in Marmoset. Thanks in advance. Here is my workflow and… -
Answered: Question on Quixel Export Target
Hello. I have a question regarding the Quixel Export Target settings. I`m not entirely sure I understand what they do My render target is Marmoset 3, and I am using a Spec/Gloss workflow with the GGX reflection model. Either the "Toolbag 2" setting or "Specular PBR (GGX)" will output Albedo/Spec/Gloss/Normal textures,… -
Tracked armored vehicle with a gun
Hello, Polycount! Being a long time lurker, I gotta post my stuff someday, so here it is. I've been working on this tank model for quite some time, mostly to study nextgen techniques, and I did learned a lot (stuff like "triangulate before you bake" and "sub-optimal poly distibution"). I think I've been looking at this…
