Bastion, portal, journey, super meat boy, S&S all of those are quite recent and got some nice soundtracks. And these are some of my favorite old school gems; [ame=" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=969FBiYlaU8"]Warcraft 2 Tides of Darkness - 001 - Human 1 Fanfare - YouTube[/ame]…
Will's right about the lighting..for some reason my eye keeps getting drawn to the darkest building in the back of the street...well to be fair i don't know what my focal point would be. You know, an idea for lighting, Axe the christmas lights on the left building and move them to the building in the back and open the…
Ok, it's now time to low poly and baking ! My goal for the low poly is something like 60 000 triangles. This is the tender and the locomotive body with uv's and wireframe. Each UV set is a 4096 at the moment. I planned two other uv sets: one for detached pieces and an other one for the control pannel. Finaly I will use 2…
SDK_Knite0.rar 3DS Max 2008 I ask that if you download and texture this dude that you share the PSDs you've created with the polycount community, thank you! SDK_Knite0_PSD0.rar CS3 Extended ---- pc lurker "Joseph Pomeisl" was unable to extract my UVs correctly from my obj and had opted to just unwrap the model. He said if…
Why is it that saying Paul Wright isn't an artist is "talking down" to him? Lots of people are artisans in their careers, and there's absolutely nothing wrong with that. An artisan who has mastered his craft is to be admired more than many so-called artists. I generally find that people who get hung up on attributing a…
What version of max are you using? The obj exporter in 9 and below was horribly flawed. So much so that this guy wrote new import/exporters that actually worked. If you're in 9 or below give them a shot. http://www.guruware.at/main/ It kicked so much ass that autodesk included it in 3dsmax 2008 and threw theirs away. Also…
on their website, it´s microsofts voice I hear: I´ve heard that the major reason for microsoft buying truespace out of others was that true space has a unique feature where several people can work on 1 model. some month´s ago microsoft carefully tried contacting blender but failed big time because they mentioned OpenXML as…
The "assisting copyright infringement" were dropped because they didn't have a case. They were convicted of "assisting making available copyrighted material" which is an incredibly nebulous-sounding charge. Every ISP would be guilty of this as well, would they not? Since access to the internet is a prerequisite for any…
posm, that's exactly the setup I'm using. It's the guesswork in the move/rotate camera part that I'm trying to eliminate. i.e. I know the render width needs to be exactly 5 1/2 iso tiles wide, with a render resolution of 176 x 208. I'm working on a mobile game, as you might've guessed. The irony in all of this is the art…
Anthony is too kind as always! (and a brilliant artist to boot) :) Purely execution-wise joints might be a bit more expensive because it's another layer between the vert and the transformation. But! A lot of performance these days boils down to how fast you can shuffle data around. And with next gen it's a lot more data.…
