Blender [3D] Learning Diary 002 - Asset Creation https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tHxhLlhuGys Some update on the crate game asset tutorial and general Blender studying. Done the modelling of different parts. Had some problems with Bend feature in Simple Deform modifier. So spent some time how to use it properly - as a…
Yeah, my recommendations would be very similar to Zac's, even with a significantly better GPU he managed to shave off like $300 without much difference in cpu speed etc. Though I would go with a 500GB or 1TB Samsung EVO 850 SSD too =P Monitors... Too many choices for monitors, just make sure its a decent IPS panel! Also, I…
AMD Firepro W7000 here. Mudbox is blazing fast, i can sculpt on 80mil tri model at close to 30fps. I used to have a GTX 460 and it was almost a 300% boost in speed from that. I tried a Quadro 4000 before going AMD and it was barely any faster than GTX 460. Also, latest PC games run very very fast on this as well which was…
For 600 yen (the price here in JPN) it sounds a bit expensive, and the screen on the iPhone might be a bit too small for modeling. On the other hand, if he released an app for the iPhone and iPad that served as a 3D model viewer with the typical stuff.. - Up to around 30k polygons on the scene - Being able to load textures…
any ips monitor is a lot better than the typical TN lcd monitors, get one or 2 of these if you go with a PC, or you get get a better IPS. I wish they had dell monitors next to apple's somewhere so you could compare, but I bet they are pretty much on par.…
Was it the problem where the normals on one side of the model point one way and another way on the other side of the model (this causes a harsh line of separation). This often happens on curved surfaces and the only way to prevent it is to make a cut through the nearest plane, instead of the edge. This may mean you have to…
i think bigger companies always view this with suspicion and will prefer to acquire a license themselves even if the licensing terms might suggest it's doable to use a personal license. in a small/indie studio obviously anything goes. i've seen past employers of mine bend over backwards to e.g. buy somebody a seat of modo…
That would not work I guess. There are many items that I would like to have in game, and not exactly I would like to purchase them myself... Also because some sets are added to store after even full year, that would be crazy to force people to wait this amount of time with pre-purchase money frozen. Also there could be…
400 USD is a good sum of money when you can eat out reasonably well for 2 USD per day. If you're paying around 2mil VND to rent a fairly reasonable place and living non-extravagantly, you'll end up with more than half your pay still left over at the end of the month. After two years, you're not going home poor, you'll have…
