Re: Follow Tutorials To the Letter?
Yeah tutorials are pretty useless in my opinion. Use them for reference to do particular things, but its not really worth following them to the letter. To do that plane Just find the nearest primitives to the shapes, then extrude or substract the surfaces, create more geometry, then move the verts one by one if necessary… -
Re: American Horror Story - Kit Walker WIP
I think I know what I have to do now. I'll use the low poly to make a new high poly that will be used for the normal map. This stuff really confuses me sometimes :) . Update: Here's all the low poly stuff. The head, arms, undershirt, shirt, pants, and shoes are all separate things. The stuff I'll add to this later are… -
Re: [3DS Max] Modeling a Low-Poly Flash Hider
This just involves putting a taper modifier right above the cylinder base object ( strange enough this changes some topology so you have to fix some edge/vertex selections on the stack above). To counter the shell modifier extruding the outer shell along the tapered normals then, i simply checked "select outer faces" in… -
Re: Some Maya issues
2/3: I'm with Bartalon on that one. 5: This is the result of namespaces, it's under the import options, and controls for for your scene are in Window>General>Namespace Editor. It's in place to keep naming local for each object, since Maya can only have one name for anything in a scene. A scene with multiple characters that… -
Re: ZBrush 4
the thing is, with zspheres i don't have to create a basemesh either, well i create one with them, but have the freedom of stepping up and down in the levels - basicly basemeshes these days at least for me are so super simple they are done in just a few minutes, and with the ability of reprojection you have in z already… -
Re: BusStop Mini Environment
I would say for now just put a dominant directional light in there. Right now it seems like it's evenly lit from all sides. You can't tell if there is any normal map information at work. Those bricks need to be redone. It seems like the green channel on them is possibly inverted as it looks like the cement between the… -
Re: App question...Blender, etc.
Honestly, I never made any real models in qme But some basics: - Hitting Tab brings you in between edit mode and object mode. - Right clicking selects, hitting G moves, then leftclicking confirms it. - U key (in edit mode) undos. YOU CANT HAVE THAT IN QME MUAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!!! - A selects/deselects all, F makes faces with… -
Re: Environment WIP: Dock
single 2048x2048 used for spec, diff, and normals. Decals shouldnt give you a problem when imported, just do them as a normal texture and set up your decal mat (hourences site has a useful tutorial about that.) I would still model them in myself, as they seem to extrude a little from the dock side and if they were flat… -
Re: Substance Painter: Can't bake normal map
Okay although i am not quite sure if this was the problem, but i try to summarize for others, so PLEASE correct me if i am wrong here (i dont want to misslead others because of my lack of knowledge) the missing extrusion on top of the low mesh is because: - the ray has to "travel much deeper to paint the normal" - and even… -
[UE4] Roman Ruins - Lighting Practice
Hey you lovely poly-extruders ! This is a quick scene I cobbled up with megascans assets to practice lighting in different times of day. HDRIs are from hdrihaven.com (f'ing love this site), the lighting is fully dynamic, using tinted DFAO and coloured bottom-skylight to fake light bounces, everything is lit via a…
