Re: The future of art and AI!?
It's heading in the right direction, but it's clearly not there yet. That process uses solid colored images. If you attempt to provide something more complex like a photo you get very iffy meshes. For example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HO1LYJb818Q But it's definitely heading there. Think of any style asset that has a… -
Re: Scott Wilson - Technical Artist Portfolio
Your portfolio apart from the title doesn't really scream tech artist. Tech artist roles are different at all studios but all you mention that is really relevant is kismet and uScript but show no examples, and while useful seems more like a level scripter role. You also mention cascade and have an example of hologram… -
Re: [Text Books] V.S. [Video Tutorials] ??
Although I voted for books/written articles, a concise, well edited video can be just as good. Most of the videos on CTRL+Paint fit this description. Unfortunately, tutorials with production values as good as those are a rarity. +1 to the Marmoset tutorials - really clear and to the point with lots of examples. I wish the… -
Re: Stylized Cyberpunk Facade
My only issue is I wish you had more objects that didnt have straight up and down edges, add some angles here and there. Here are some example I guess. Like maybe your left corner could have a curve or something. not my art just examples..… -
Re: SciFi Support Beam
"3/4 mapping" is a made-up term for something related to the process of mirroring the UV mapping coordinates. Except here you offset the seam from the middle of the model, so only part of the surface is mirrored. The middle area is not mirrored. The UV seam then occurs off the center line. Here's an example, courtesy… -
baking (fur) shells, turning a 3D volume into a series of stacked planes w/ alpha
Hi all, long time lurker. I looked around and found some examples of someone attempting this in Blender (in like 2007) but no recent examples. Here's where I'm at: I wanted to see if it would be possible to quickly bake something very complex (like FiberMesh fur/hair, for example) to a fur shell. The idea would be that… -
Re: [UE5] Lighting help needed! Jungle Scene
HI! I would start off by saying that your lighting does not look dreadful! Unfortunately sometimes when people are making YouTube videos they will leave out important information such as post processing changes, or shaders which can heavily impact the final results of a shot. For me the biggest thing that's sticking out in… -
Re: Current Industry Standard workflow for 3D artists??
To echo some of the above : - Be excellent at creating highpoly models, both sculpted and as manually crafted geo - Be excellent at creating ingame meshes - Be excellent at UVs and baking. - Also pick a 3D CAD software like Fusion, Moi3D or Plasticity. And then things will vary from one project to another. Honestly not… -
Re: PBR safe base color node in Designer?
Well, there is no pure color in properly-formatted PBR color maps. And tone mappers can only do great with good inputs. White paint for example should be no brighter than 240 or so. Snow is the brightest at about 243. A lemon peel is around 220,185,0. -
Re: Grand Theft Auto V
I believe that it's not quite right, and by sandbox it would mean that your actions wouldn't have any permanent effect which make it impossible to continue on as usual. To take your examples: Skyrim has Open-World Sandbox and RPG elements, permanent damage. GTA has Open-World Sandbox and RPG elements, temporary damage. If…
