Re: Help remind me how to set up smaller maps similar to micro detail maps
It's a 128*128 texture, and its design doesn't seem to correspond to anything related to the mapping of the body. Past such a low resolution threshold, masking would be better off done per-polygon rather than per-pixel. It also looks great when applied as an environment map, without showing too much detail in the… -
Re: Subsidy Cut & The Montreal/Quebec Games Industry
But that is becuase of the people there, not the location of the studio, so they might just pickup and move to Vancouver if tax is better there, Or possibly just leave Canada and go to Austin or a other big US gamedev city. Over a few years cheaper tax will cost them less than it would to relocate the people in the studio.… -
Re: Baroque Mini-Env
coots: haven't had time to try modo 7 all that much, did a quick try with it and they fixed a few things, broke a few things. Nothing big for gamedevs though, from what i could tell. I swap between 501 and 601 ^^ Suba: yeah, that was a bit much, i have turned down the chromatic abberation with about 75% since that picture… -
Re: Autodesk Certification?
I think so if you do demo or workshop gigs at regional or international conventions, promote yourself as an AD tutor-for-hire (private, institutional or non-gamedev company), leverage for any career goals particularly when it comes to salary negotiations or contract. And if you're pitching to investors who don't have a… -
Re: It seems to be impossible to find a job as a Modeler in this industry
@ Joopson - mine was from job boom. And i got to work on casual games :P Nevertheless, my 1st experience in a good ambiance which decided my future passion for gamedev ... Tho i think smaller studios will have less budgets and therefore less likely to hire someone with relocation. Usually its good for locals. The whole… -
Re: Wacraft-inspired enviro
Hi! It's been a while since I posted something, but I've been quite busy - I got some freelance work and earned my first money from gamedev, so I'm very excited. Yesterday I had some time to tinker with windmill. Here's a new WIP. I also UV-mapped the model already, so I'm going to add door and windows, probably some more… -
Re: 3D Portfolio - Real-time gallery for your 3D artwork on iOS/Android
There's plenty that are geared toward 'viewing' models, but I only found one (Polyviewer) that offers something like a "gallery" or "portfolio" of your work and was geared toward gamedevs -- Polyviewer has a gallery mode in the paid version, but it's Android only. I use Unity but I'm more familiar with developing for iOS… -
Re: How to make clouds with normal maps?
Not to sound arrogant, but stick to PolyCount or GameDev, UDK's forums aren't exactly a bustling hub of helpfulness in many cases. As for the question, most clouds are made to fake Scattering properties, like Skin, Snow, Atmosphere, etc. Crysis does a good example of this. Basically, create a Fresnel, and have it feed on… -
[Portfolio Review] Concept Art & 2D Art
Hello everyone, I've been out of school for a while now and unfortunatly progress is slow going for my portfolio. Lately I have been feeling stuck and unsure of how to improve (Though I know I need to!) I was doing concept design stuff for a while and I recently switched it up a bit to try out doing some more 2D art… -
