Re: Restricted in art
I agree if it's well executed it will come across fine. If it's confusing, ignores some of the basic principles that have governed a wide range of art for hundreds of years or the quality isn't there, then it's going to get negative comments. Those people that show a high degree of quality and respect for the basic… -
Re: MaxScript Knowledge and Question Thread
Finally got it to work. Had to edit you're script a bit. Separated the point3 to separate floats (probably better way to do this) and then created controllers in script and attached them plugin Helper TestHelpername:"Test"classID:#(1084217646, -674216016)category:"Standard"extends:dummyversion:1invisible:false( local… -
Re: School-mandated "mentorships"?
Keep in mind, I’m not talking about schools who have special staff on hand to tutor students or students being “mentored” by their profs. That’s all well and good and more power to the schools who provide it, that’s what a supportive learning environment looks like. I’m talking about industry professionals who aren’t… -
Re: Short Acting Piece
Hey Mannykins, cool stuff so far. I'm not sure what stage you're at, so feel free to disregard some or all of my comments. 1. Be careful with your staging, right now if you look at frame 1, you've got the character almost dead center in the frame in a very symmetrical pose. I think I would try to get more asymmetry both in… -
Re: Maxscript, color per vertex -> ascii output
I just tackled this problem myself recently. Its kind of a pain in the ass. There is a very good reason that vertex color is not stored in the same place as vertex geometry. This is because a single vertex can have multiple colors, the same way that a single vertex can have multiple UV map coordinates. For example, in your… -
Re: Am I allowed to rant? Non-contributing community members. (Uh oh!)
I usually get a lot of these too until someone comes up with actual hints on things I did wrong. I usually appreciate these. But well... I'm new to the forums and a complete beginner at modeling myself. ...and I want to complain about something that bothers me on these forums... so please don't read along if you think I'm… -
Re: Low Poly Hardware Specs
Some info on the nds. The nds supports 6 texture formats: * A3I5: 3 bit alpha 5 bit color index(palette with direct alpha) * 4 color palette (each texel is 2 bits) * 16 color palette (each texel is 4 bits) * 256 color palette (each texel is 8 bits) * A5I3: 5 bit alpha 3 bit color index (palette with direct alpha) *… -
Re: Another good quote on piracy:
The PC market is as healthy as it ever was-- fewer games are sold in it because fewer games are made. Since it's peak (in 1998 I think) the PC game market has shrunk to a little more than half of what it was, but if you look at the shelf space for PC games since then it has shrunk 90%. The best selling games of all time… -
Re: New Texture Site (www.ultimatetextures.com)
some suggestions/ ideas: - generic model (like a cube, sphere, wall,...) on which the texture is mapped onto additional next to the flat view - 512² is a joke, even if someone aims for that resolution for a tileable texture he/she propably wants it twice of the size just to be better in control,- so perhaps scrap that… -
Re: Drawing Pencils - Recommendation
Love my pencils. Honestly, for quick studies and sketches I use a normal pencil(the non mechanical) in 2B, sometimes I use it up to 4B. It's great for putting down large areas of shading due to the softness and width of the nib, as it gets round quickly as it's so soft. After I've got my idea's sketched out, then i either…
