Re: Ways to a Successful Submission?
This. Don't be concerned about a magic formula of popularity. Do your stuff, enjoy the progress you are making, fail, get better, succeed. A good way to start in my opinion is isntead of doing random items, pick a hero and put him in a little lore, try to match the concept with the situation~ I guess it's a fun way to get… -
Re: Newbie needs help with Normal maps!
The Normal Map doesn't look like a World Space map to me, actually; there's a lot of "Magic Blue" (127,127,255) and related colors in patches, but the pinks and greens look like ray misses. Are you baking this in Max or someplace else (xNormals, etc)? If in Max, did you reset/push the threshold on your Projection modifier?… -
Re: Zero Gravity - PBR IBL Environment
This is awesome ! Just out of curiosity, how much time does it take you to do let's say the new modular piece ? Is it photoshop only or some dDo magic too ? If you could make a whole station with this quality it will be incredible :) Oh and btw you have some strange shading artifacts on the outside of your tube on the last… -
Re: Final Fantasy 8: Squall is dead
I'm not saying the long and convoluted dream itself is unlikely, just that it being triggered by dying specifically makes no sense. It would make more sense if the entire second disc was triggered because he ate some bad eggs or something. It's no different than saying that magic exists in the game because oranges are… -
Re: Am I still in this world?
It's Old Lodge Skins from "Little Big Man!" "Sometimes the magic works, sometimes it doesn't." Chief Dan George is the common man's Yoda. He was probably the character who first said "It is a good day to die!" Anyone reading this who hasn't seen it should, or see it again if you forgot. Greatest Anti-Western ever made.… -
Re: 2010 Comicon: Valkyrie [Big Pics Ahoy]
Amazing work! I especially enjoy the work on her face and her beautyfull eyes. Lovely. Also the wings are impressive. I also like the simplicity of her armor. Not overdone with ornaments and such. It fits nicely. I guess the special effects on her spear in the beauty shot are painted. Or did you some particle effect magic… -
Re: Houston we got a problem (scaling between zbrush and blender)
After watching a few videos on scaling, units, conversions etc etc etc...and experimenting with no luck...I tried exporting as an .fbx vs an .obj and magically all is well. .fbx was perfect scale in blender with out having to change anything or do any math haha. So I apologize for posting cuz I figured it out. Phew! -
Re: PC Community Feedback: Petrol/Blood (and contests in general)
Personally I thought it odd that there was mandatory violence — I get how that's a necessity in a Brawl competition or Arms and Armor contest, for obvious reasons, but I don't know why a character + vehicle would need guns or sharp bits. Not that a more peaceful contest would magically have given me the time to… -
Re: Rumour: Autodesk apparently killing Softimage!
This is what I imagined Modo / Mesh fusion sub-d tools - check Zbrush sculpting / dynamesh tech - check Headus UV Layout tools and unfolding algorithms - check 3D Coat painting / retopology tools - check Baking tools with the quality and versatility of Xnormal and the speed of Substance in a magical universalized tangent… -
Re: Really? This is what we have come to in self-entitlment?
If we can still remember this thread in five to ten years ;) But seriously though, I hope valve does the "what WOULD you like to do?" routine with her, and explain the different magical spells behind making games, the downsides and upsides, what route she should take to work on her skills depending on what she'd like to do.
