Re: Most Efficient Way to Render Ready Game Models
Its a valid point that less confusion is better for everyone. On the other hand, figuring out how to use geometry efficiently is part of the skillset, and any aspiring artist can learn all they need to know about that from this forum (as opposed to out of date amateur youtube tutorials or AI...). -
Re: Books and Guides
Books specifically made for games or animation tend to be underwhelming. You're better off browsing the Polycount wiki as well as video tutorial sites like 3dmotive and eat3d. I personally wouldn't recommend Digital Tutors or Gnomon because a lot of their game related tutorials aren't really up to date with current… -
Re: Sanctum of Forgotten Hymns
Here is the finished model. Started doing some colour blending. Currently working with fill layers. The tutorial uses regular painting layers and he jumps around to different hues a lot...

Re: Workflow with 2 UVs ( Alex senechal tuto ), issue with visible seams
Hi! Don't understand how such a file could be too heavy, it would be a mesh and the two normal maps that should get combined. No high poly or anything like that.

Re: Plasticity Learning Exercises
Great! Another one Plasticity user :) Since it's used mostly by artists, it's better to watch tutorials for Fusion 360, if you want to understand CAD methods. Some tools are different there, but you'll see how engineers think and work. For those who want to try Plasticity, I can confrm, it's very user friendly. Also it has… -
