Re: WWII German Tiger Tank Model
If you are going to make a low poly game model, you should start by looking around for similar or identical game models to what you want to make. This is a good practice, because then you will get an idea for the level of realism you will have to at least achieve, if not beat. I decided to go ahead and help you with that:… -
Re: Ken Levine closing down Irrational Games
Oh god, that blog post made me angry. What utter, utter crap. I can't comment on the situation other than to say I'm sorry to hear people lost their jobs and I hope they land on their feet ok. Here's a few links I've come across recently, maybe they'll help some of you out - http://careerpowerups.com/… -
Re: Personal M4 Carbine. WORK IN PROGRESS. Would like Critique and Constructive Criticism
I try to keep things clean and easy to manipulate, which unfortunately creates some unnecessary geometry. I did, however, keep the model to under 12K polygons. After reading your response, I have gone through the mesh and deleted any edges that don't serve any visual or UV purposes. Yes there is a normal and a height map.… -
Re: Pc build help for a noob
Do yourself a favor and just get a DVD drive. They're very cheap these days and come in handy for burning backups. If you want fast reads you should get two smaller drives that are inexpensive and put them in a RAID 0 configuration. Very fast. Two 128 GB SSD's, even if they're slower, will be faster in a RAID 0 (striping)… -
Re: Looking for gun engraving patterns
Thanks for the suggestion Vig! I found a few patterns that seem usable, most of them are verry "flowery" or celtic though. Do these tendrils here have a specific name I could google for? http://www.shootinguk.co.uk/imageBank/cache/p/Purdey_Woodward_shotgun_engraving.jpg_e_396a279009743b84848c0932fe048b5b.jpg It seems they… -
Re: LucasMichel's Work
Questions Questions Questions: Keyshot 6: This is the outside of a bottle I'm working on. The geometry is a very simple poly-cube-made-cylinder then subdivided 2-3 times with a Cylindrical Mapping. It's the "Refractive Glass Dense" Material with a Refraction index of 1.3 and a Horizontal Stripped bump map applied to it to… -
Re: Flattr: The best thing since sliced bread,
The incentive is it makes it much easier. Since you have already paid our X amount at the beg of the month. YOu just click like if they have a link on a publishers page. Bam! Your done. No hassles with google money, paypal or other. I dont think there is a fixed price. Im sure there is a minimum though.… -
Re: The poo room
Thanks! I also have a book my wife hi-jacked from work lol. Great refrence especially for setting up the lighting. Most of the rest I can figure out on my own but it was invaluable for helping figure out FG and GI. Well the lighting is pretty simple. Its just a daylight system, with mr sun and sky and I used the mr… -
Re: The decline of civility?
Its odd that never 'really' get angry on line, but am quite the angry type in real life( well only if I am really getting pissed with someone. I am more of the per 128 type in real life ie I tend to speak my mind, but nothing i read online tends to get me 'that' hot under the collar. talking about civility, if I ever pass… -
Re: Magitek Armor (WIP)
Going with one 128^2 map for the majority, and a 64^2 map for the pilot and the legs (those giant feet just wouldn't fit with good enough texel size). UVing is also when I really get to reduce the last bits I can as I'm forced to look at everything closer - managed to take off 32 more polygons with no real visible changes…
