Re: Overwatch - Team Arena Shooter by Blizzard
I disagree with the implication that only "hardcore blizzard fans" would have that reaction. The level of fandom doesnt really matter, just difference in expectations and bias. The term generic or mishmash is merely the means to articulate a first impression. Generic is almost brandless, not unique in characteristics.… -
Re: Motenai - Dota 2 Workshop
Yay, accuracy ! :) If I may add, here are a couple remarks : - Using a Object Space workflow like you do has the huge benefit of generating bakes that are effectively universal. What I mean by that is that while there is a gazillion ways to generate and display Tangent Space normalmaps (every engine and every 3d program is… -
Re: New President?
Whether or not the economy recovers in short or long time, or even under his Presidency is something we don't know right now. But the election of Obama is a historical event. While I'm not crying on his words or shouting AMEN to the skies, I feel like I as as resident of North America (yes, NOT American) that I was part of… -
Re: opacity map is not effective
The primary problem here is the alpha channel. The values are all generally below 50%, so you're essentially defining all the strands of hair as half (or more) transparent. Hair should generally be white, with soft falloff at the edges and ends. If you increase the contrast in the alpha channel you'll get more clearly… -
Re: Adobe "Muse"
I've been using this at work, largely for sitemapping and prototyping websites. I can say however, that what it generates, works across all browsers - having tested it, and it is rather powerful in fact. The code it generates is a bit odd though, for instance each line of copy, would be contained in it's own <p> and <span>… -
Re: [Unity] Dead Awake - Artist learning to code
So I fixed some bugs in the generation, optimized some scripts (the enemyAI was sucking the life out of my CPU when generating large levels). Below is a gif where I generate some different layouts in a floor size of 40 rooms. There is still a big freeze when all the rooms get activated but I might be able to solve that… -
Re: How to lose sales
Not having GTAV on PC makes it easier to justify not buying it after really not enjoying IV... multiplayer was good, if broken, but the single player was a dissonant mess that couldn't decide if it wanted me to enjoy consequence free mayhem or if it wanted an "emotional" story with realistic physics and "mechanics" like… -
Re: Freelance - Payment After Approval
For new clients i generally ask for a percentage up front. I like to research a client while we're still in the early steps (ie: when they first email me for availability etc.) and see if other people have worked with them. If they're generally a good client to work for i'll ask for 25% up front, if i can't find anybody to… -
Re: Curves to planes.
I assume you're using Maya since you're saying curves instead of splines? But just in case, I'll answer for both... For Maya: This plug-in is great http://www.polycount.com/2014/02/26/geo-maya-hair-2/ You don't generate cards from hair, but hair from cards. You can then unwrap and bake the hair down to the cards, if you… -
Re: LoDs: From how many tris does it make sense?
Finally, yes this was exactly my point all this time. also this and this from the first page Took us 3 pages. I'm sorry if I wasn't exactly on par with technical terms or wasn't clear enough, but could we please now all agree that it if you can generally say that a 600-tri object comes for "free", then it generally makes…
