Lightwave 10 released
Right at the end of 2010 New Tek did something crazy. They released new technology. Lightwave 10 is out! We're 3 days late on this one - but I think you'll forgive us. On December 30th, New Tek pushed Lightwave 10 out the door. Here is some of what New Tek is saying about Lightwave 10. NewTek LightWave 10 delivers a whole… -
Importance of Rigging for a Character Artist?
Hello all, While I am currently learning my foundations, I have found that many character artists leave posing more as an after-thought… I almost always see posing getting left towards the end of the project but is there a tutorial that covers the importance of creating a skeleton / skinning your block-out model as early… -
Re: Codename: Courage (UE4)
May have created the topic a little too early :D Anyhow, we have now started diving into 3D, so we'll be able to start posting. We're at the blocking out phase at the moment. The past few weeks I have mostly spent finalizing the level layout and the landscape more, so we could start blocking out the locations and bringing… -
Re: Zaugok the Skullcrusher
Thanks! I initially wanted to push for a more stylized look (imagine if WoW went with dx11 tessellation and physically based shading.) Now that I look at him again I agree with you. Since it's out of the lowpoly range it calls for some grime and extra details. I'll for sure add some of that in. I'll layout my goals for… -
Re: (UE4) Ultimate Custom Master Material!!
Sure thing. I will update the info today with a better description. There is a picture to show the end result and final material network. Ill share it again here. It will show all of the basics of material editing, understanding what a master material is and how to use material instances with it. I create a base color hue… -
Re: UE4 Animation Hitch Custom Bones HELP ME!
I doubt it's a problem that can be solved with IK. IK will only make an animator's job easier. If you were previously using biped, know that it handles curves differently. Biped uses quaternion rotation instead of Euler, which is the default for max bones and max objects. You could try switching the bones to quaternion but… -
Re: kHED 1.0 Beta - a new low poly 3D modeling editor
Hi Monk! I don't know if this fits with your description of a stack : what I meant is not only the "stackable" nature of the modifiers, but also and more importantly the non-linear, "browsable" aspect of their connections. I mean, I really love and rely a lot on Max's ability to let me go back the very lower layer of a… -
Re: urban environment WIP
walknTalknMonkey, thanks man. Yes, i did use mostly photos as my source because these are mainly generic and realistic surfaces so that was the fastest way, not the worst one either i hope :) At work i mostly do painted textures because the games are mainly cartoonish so i need a break, lol. As promised, here i got some… -
Re: Quick rigging question
K going to throw this right at the start. But I have 0 rigging/messing with node experience. So tried doing what Wrath mentioned and think its what he said. Hopefully its correct XD Anywho, what I did is: 1. Create a sphere. Poly or nurbs whatever suits ya :) 2. Open up hypergraph. Gonna be easier to select stuff. 3. Click… -
Re: DJ Hero? FAIL FAIL *RANT* :E
Well, offensive. Maybe not to you the actual Dj who can shrug and laugh it off. But to the peon that just wants to have fun mixing tracks and emulate the glamor of super Djing.. Yes. Also Im a bit tired of people using the guitar hero isn't a guitar. DUH! I tell you something you people are obviously missing. A Guitar is…
