Zbrush Core dynamesh issues or user error?
I recently bought an intro level tablet which came with Zbrush core to learn how to sculpt a bit better before I decide whether or not I wanted to purchase the full version of Zbrush. I'm not sure if I'm just "dynameshing" wrong or if it's core. I'm a bit more comfortable in 3ds max when it comes to controls so I figured… -
Re: HLSL magic
there is also "Mental mill - artist edition" which is node-based just like ShaderFX, and comes free with Nvidia's FX Composer 2.0. the app is standalone and can dump shader code, as well. (fx composer itself feels a bit bloated imo) the Cg Tutorial book, eventhough old, has some nice basic stuff. The Cg Manual (in here… -
Re: Pixel Pusher, You ever get called this?
It seems like a really lame insult to me. I mean of all the things one could think of to insult another artist, is "pixel pusher" really the best they could come up with? At the end of the day, it's just obnoxious elitism and there's absolutely no end to it. This happens all the time when it comes to programmers and it… -

Re: What Blender Tasks Are Still Wasting Your Time? Looking for Real Automation Targets
Simple automation tools are easily done by chat GPT. Blender is where it shines actually. What I'd love to see is a kind of deeper Blender customization. A 2d vector editor mode with editable spline brushes driven by grease pensil. The whole "draw" mode is quite inconvenient currently . I want something like "skeletal"… -
SD Slow with no nodes in the graph?
Hey guys, Substance Designer seams to be lagging without any nodes in the graph. This lag goes away when I restart SD but comes back after a while.. any ideas?

Re: Project- Sword
Hello everyone!! This project has now come to an end. Over the past week, I’ve been working on the animations and the final touches to the render. I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed making it! https://youtu.be/i3e1m1322PU https://youtu.be/XGfqbtuKEhQ -
Re: Watermill Environment - No Rest for the Wicked
I have been working on my roof, and I am considering two approaches to achieve results similar to No Rest for the Wicked. Since the game uses a top-down view, their roof tiles are quite flat because they don’t require much depth. However, this wouldn’t work in my environment, as I want it to work well from multiple angles.… -
Re: Arm and Wrist Pain - how did you dealt with them?
The slowdowns I see with that are: a) you need to be constantly aware of your camera position and in which axis you want to move. That always take me a second of thinking, so it loses out of the box.b) with ZXY, I can never hit the right button without looking down at my keyboard. c) actions that don't need to be precise… -
Re: Scripting streamlines your 3d workflow
The maxscript listener code is fine, as long as you take the core of it and wrap it up nicely. Everything in the listener is written specifically for the objects that it is dealing with at the point, so I normally add a layer of abstraction. A simple script that I use a lot is rotating a character. I build my characters…
