Re: Outdoor lighting
Yeah, the skylight should only be used as a fill light, helping to get rid of strong black shadows and help fill out darker areas. A strong key light with mapped shadows of tree's leaves would look great in this scene I reckon. In Jeremy Birn's Lighting and Rendering book he talks about this...off screen space and how… -
Re: Digital tablet doubt
if you need to save cash and a used tablet is fine, you can even go with an intuos1 if you can find one in a nice condition. apart from small tweaks and a different finish these are identical to the intuos2. personally prefer them over the intuos3 which seems a bit flimsy in comparison but ymmv. just don't buy a tablet… -
Re: New Microsoft Surface Products
I picked up my Asus VivoTab note 8 64gb for $375 (CAN) after tax and I can't say I regret that purchase at all. It has a Wacom digitizer. The tracking gets a bit funky around the borders of the screen, but that doesn't bother me cause that's just where menu items are and I don't actually paint there. It can Zbrush like a… -
Re: Issues with carpal tunnel
For the in-editor navigation issues, you *might* be able to remap things to something less stressfu through AutoHotkey scripts. It's worth trying, and maybe your tech/tools guy could help you settings this up ? As for typing, I found a strange but very smooth solution : I put an extra, low profile (apple) keyboard ... on… -

Re: RTS buildings and units
Awesome crits guys! Spark, as you have worked on so many, what are some of the restrictions I can be looking at in terms of polycounts, map sizes, ect. I was just thinking in terms of size on the screen and the amount of one unit that will be on screen at any one time. Eg, grunts = small = lots of them so then I keep… -
Textools V4.10 and the Render to Texture

[Unity] Spy-Game Environment
Hey, I like to share some screens of the current game I´m working on for the university. It´s about a whistleblower who spys out his employer. It´s all in a very early stage, most of the materials are done in Substance Designer and yeah... it´s Unity game, not Unreal. The first picture is a little 3D render I overpainted… -
Forum width
The new layout helps with this, but I still have issues. My usual monitor for browsing is my 1440x900 display that is turned to portrait (ie. 90 degrees from normal 'widescreens'). This means that the whole forum is about 124px too wide for my screen and I end up needing to scroll back and forth quite a bit. I can adblock…
