Re: Are NURB model used in games?
Nurbs aren't used in games, but you can convert them to polys - which won't result in topology and polycounts as efficient as if you used polygons from scratch. You can correct these mistakes by hand, but that's almost as much work as doing polygons, so... I'd advise you to stick to simple shapes if you really want to use… -
Re: Alien: Isolation
So I have the biggest raging hard on for this game now. I was so pleasantly surprised at first but the excitement kept building and building. It is so wonderful to see the subtle nuance of the original film translated into this game. Especially the fact the alien is not fast and bouncing around the place. The original… -
Re: 3D Modeler Portfolio Critiques: Brutal Honesty
Get rid of the splash page. Make it the gallery page instead. Show off your best pieces right away. And as for your Demo Reel, reserve it only for animation. Don't put still images in there (like the last 20 seconds, chop chop em off). Turntable is kind of up to you. Personally I'd use multiple images or one very wide… -
Re: Body Mechanics study... critique welcome
I think "jank" refers to the fact that the timing feels very inconsistent. As an example, around f136 he seems to pause during the landing, then he rolls extremely fast. Again at 381 his body shoots forward, not matching the action before it. There are many more cases, but these are 2 clear examples. As an overall note… -
Re: TOONZ animation software going free + open source
Indeed ! Using a given software in an art pipeline doesn't mean that things are necessarily drawn in it. A japanese animation studio like the one shown in the video below doesn't exactly have the luxury of wasting time. They probably carefully audited/optimized all their productions steps ... and end up drawing all frames… -
Re: Monthly Noob Challenge 9
@visoutre Yep seems to be a waste of time but by working modular you optimize what you get in game. When you duplicate something in UDK for example it's less heavy than have your whole scene/blockout load in one time. Also this concept is really a small part of the whole tunnel. You can of course made it all in Maya and… -
Re: Max vs Maya
silo has a awesome learning curve,- in fact I modify many shortcuts in 3dsmax towards the ones from silo - because they just make sense and are well thought. Modo is some great parts,- like the tool pipeline (similar to the macro recording in max), the uv editor wich is one of the best from the bigger packages (except… -
Re: Near death experiences you never even noticed
hahaha right I share shotguns subjective viewpoint of the mind generating the experience but that would only be true for JO's mental reality. Physically this did happen, maybe not noticed by the person himself but then brought into mental existance through communication (friend) wich was then reflected on, in reference to… -
Re: This guy has to be kidding, right? ... RIGHT!?!?!?
I hear a lot of people say that the Wii isnt about graphics, and that Nintendo doesn't need to compete in the "fast hardware" market. Theres not even anything that great on the Wii right now. Wii sports is fun until you realize its really nothing more than a tech demo. Then you've got... umm.... nothing? So we've got a… -
