Re: Displacement maps, help
I was watching a UVW unwrapping tutorial yesterday and the guy used a displacement map at the end. Unlike a normal map,an object with displacement can be zoomed in on and you'll see real geometry and shadows (whereas an object with just a normal map looks flat). It also uses a lot of geometry to look right (he used a… -
Re: Critique wanted for handpainted swords
Damn man again great feedback, and don't worry about saying my stuff is bad :P. If I wanted nice feedback I would ask my friends. Atleast here at polycount people tell me the stuff I need to know to learn. Still I can be a little stubborn so at the moment i'm trying to create one blade with an interesting silhouette to… -
Re: Monthly Community Noob Challenge April 2014 (18)
Cascade is very similar to UDK's cascade (at least right now). Here's a tutorial I made last year for making rain in UDK. I'm planning on making a new one soon, but for now this might do the trick for you. You can now achieve far more realistic water effects due to pbr in UE4 so I should probably remake the tutorial here… -
Re: Issues with Maya
[SOLVED] -community over at autodesk forums said it was a camera clipping setting. Found it and fixed it. I'm watching a new tutorial and the guy's objects look solid and opaque. Mine on the other hand all look see through, i can see the edges going through them and the only way to not see them is to zoom in very closely.… -
Re: Sketchbook: Tony Sladky
Yeah, I'm going for the actual sculpting experience as A) sculpting is something I've been avoiding for a long time and would like to finally get decent at and B) I just tried sculpting up a chunk of wood and it didn't turn out very good, so I figured I'd go back to the basics and start hitting the tutorials, but I haven't… -

Re: How do you make chain mail in Zbrush?
I would not use zbrush for it in the first place. Create chainmail in you fav 3d app: http://www.3dtotal.com/tutorial/3d_studio_max/chain_mail_displacement/chain_mail_displacement_01.php (here is for max). 2. Bake tileable texture out of it. 3. Texture it. Now just use it as tileable texture on your character (you can also… -
Re: University- I want to become a 3D modeller, not an animator.
" Do I need to take a bachelor's degree of animation if I want to become a 3D modeller?" No. Sign up for Pluaralsight and/or Gnomon Workshop for a couple of months and/or get some eat3D DVDs and review some basic game modelling tutorials. Practice. Submit screenshots with wireframes. Get feedback. Rinse and repeat. Find… -

Re: Getting With The Program
What you are doing with your characters is way too specific for an automated animation system, plus you have the added detail of interacting with props/instruments. It would be faster in the end if you imported the meshes into Blender, resized, applied materials, and rigged them there. Once you have a Blender rig there are…
