Re: Getting a job at a Qand A position, as a 3d Artist
That route doesn't always work, but it did for me...sorta. I didn't move up through QA, but did QA right out of college and made friends with some artists. I was eventually let go as part of a layoff, but I kept in contact...a few years later, they were looking to bring on an additional artist and I got fast tracked in… -
Re: UE 5.3 low FPS in editor viewport with a 5950X and RTX 3090 (different sample scenes)
I opened the scene in 5.3.2 and here is my performance: It stays pretty consistent like that. I turned the Engine Scalability to cinematic and material quality to epic. In play mode it stays at 60fps. I have two monitors on, they both are at 1920x1080 resolution. If I turn the screen percentage up that tanks the FPS and… -

Re: Normal map Bake artifacts? (Warning 9 Screenshots)
@Frankie and Zwebbie, AFAIK, a distance of 0 is indeed infinite. If you have a well set up LP mesh, you should never really need to touch bias or distance, and most of the time I leave them at 0 and 0 and get perfectly good results. It's only in very rare cases (like this) where I have needed to change the bias. This is… -

Re: UE5 PBR Lightning
The sun 'is' 120k lux before clouds/atmosphere get involved iirc - don't quote me but i think the 75k that the sun position plugin provided by Unreal uses is probably in the right ballpark for actual light hitting earth (i will immediately concede to anyone who has done actual research into this - im doing the sums in my… -
Re: Need a tutorial on jets
Sry for chiming in a bit late, however I'd suggest following the advice offered by @Dihemi your mesh has too many faces for manual editing so decimate until you've a much lower polycount which will make things a tad 'easier' blocking in a basic shape before moving onto further defining the object's individual details. Plus… -
Re: Blender 2.46
To be honest so far the nicest program I have found to set hot keys in has been Max. Well once you set them I mean I'm not referring to it's bloated way of doing it.Why you ask, because other programs seem to want to force the user to adopt their work flow. I have changed hot keys in Silo and to be honest it was a big… -
Windows wont let me choose max to open .max files

So after installing it and uninstalling it my max files wont be set back to 2009...
