Re: Sketchbook threads in 3D Art Showcase and Critiques
When we swap banners, we usually move past banners into the Featured Artwork section. If one of them wants their topic moved elsewhere instead, we're happy to oblige. Besides that, it's mostly up to the artist where they want to post their work. For ease of viewers & to help with community, Animators mostly post together… -
Re: Custom Default Textures in Maya?
All the default images are stored in the /program files/maya 2018/ folder in various subfolders. However I think the UV checker texture is actually a procedural shader. So you can't just swap it for a texture. You can change some of the values for the checker pattern by clicking on the options square next to checker map… -
Re: Dumb Shit You've Done Then FacePalmed...
Lol shotgun, that actually made me cringe in front of my computer in sympathy Swimming in a gorgeous mountain pond I found with some friends, didn't have my swim shorts so swam in my boxers. Jumped off the waterfall, got out of the water in front of all my friends, stretch my arms out above me, take a big breath of… -
Re: Intel plans to make your motherboard and CPU a into single part.
interesting idea but i dont know, i live to swap out cpus when new ones come out and use a board for a while. I imagine them jacking up the price alot too for both. I can see the advantages especially with building an architecture around what you know will be in. Good article, mainly interested in using 1 top tier cpu and… -
Re: Just Cause 2
I played the demo for a bit the other day and the mechanics of the game are really solid. Using the grappling hook is a lot of fun, particularly when you snag onto a motorbike and hijack it. I think I would get bored of the full game pretty quickly as it feels altogether too similar to other games (Crackdown, Mercenaries,… -
Re: College Project: VG Remix
Once I decided that Borderlands was the game that I was modelling my Diorama after, I started to draw up T-pose sketches of the characters and props that I am going to use in the model. The only main change that I did for it was swapping the 2 main playable characters down to one and using Gaige the Mechromancer (DLC… -
Re: Marleen's MA Game Art Thread
Since this is a character that is based in a garage / workshop, perhaps you could spin him as a mech mechanic. Maybe the robotic limbs can be swapped out for different tools (some of these other forearms could be hanging off the waist or something). Or maybe he has a very ramshackle, asymmetrical design if your going for a… -
Re: Dante's Inferno demo!
so you love god of war and it's just like god of war but you don't like it. right. I remember watching the 20 minute presentation at e3 this year and it was way better than I expected. I love god of war, and this looks like more of that. fuck yes - count me in. I have no issue with getting more of the good stuff. I've yet… -
Re: Advice for a tree model
Oh, also I forgot to mention that if you place the branches as special/linked/whatever copies of each other (so that if you change one of them you change them all) the creation of LOD versions turns trivial. So doing this could then (in theory at least) easily negate the effect of the more expensive branches as they can be… -
Re: [3Ds Max] Scene management and/or exporting with MatID
The problem with collapsing/attaching is you can't simplify the complexity of your scene very easily. Eventually the scene will become too unwieldy for your graphics card to keep up. Also you can't edit the insides very easily, if you ever need to swap stuff out or fix something. I find it helps to use a layer naming…
