Re: Maya users, how are you handling next gen shaders?
And now I've gone and switched to FX Composer because RenderMonkey creates smoothing breaks along the UV seams. Very undesirable for texture work... FX Composer takes a tad longer to get the hang of, it's a bit more involved, but worth the effort. I have to mix and match snippets of code to get the shaders I want...… -
Stylized Goblin Diorama for a friend
Hello! I'm making this topic to show some progress as I get through a very ambitious project (for me), trying to reproduce this illustration as a 3D diorama: This is an illustration by a friend, Goblin Spice Trader, who does a lot of very cute (and often NSFW) goblins. I'm pretty sure they're not on this forum, otherwise… -
First portfolio - got some questions before I start
It´s time for me to get my stuff together and build a portfolio. But I got some questions before the game starts and that´s where it´s about you ^^ 1. I´m modeling (mainly characters). I do everything needed from the highpoly (Zbrush sculpts or good old max subdiv modeling) to the realtime mesh and of course I bake the… -
Re: Got a job at blizzard! but i need help
great to hear things are moving forward for your application. The O1 visa is a bit trickier than the H1B for sure. I would suggest you work on some tutorials and try to get them published on 3D art sites like polycount etc. It's also a huge help to participate in 3D challenges like unearthly challenge, domwar and so on. I… -
Re: [UE4] Massive Geo-Specific Landscape ( The Valley )
@Lucas Annunziata Unfortunately no, I can try to get to it in the next week. I just moved to a new place and yadda yadda. Overall the jist of it is, you need to isolate the black spots by using an if node for anything below 0. The black spots register as null. Then from there you can lerp in whatever you want. I chose to… -
Re: w00t! I gots me a job in the industry!
Hey congrats, one of my dreams is to work at DE! (for programming.. or at least QA) I am located in london too! There really are no "bad" parts of london, so nothing to really worry about. It is a nice smaller city, which has a lot of the big city things. Digital extremes is also really easy to get to. All major busses go… -
Re: WIP - Let's call it Avalon for now
>Wilex : yes, the comic touch was pretty much what I was trying to achieve. And yes, it's part of the design. I do tend to get overboard with this kind of postures, giving many of my characters a bad case of "dat ass". Time will tell if it was a ridiculous beginner mistake, which I already tend to think it is. Well, I'll… -
Re: what net work games do you play at work?
I sneak into the janitor's closet and pee in bottles of cleaning fluid. Sorry man. At Ion Storm, we played Unreal Tournament after work. At Legend we played UT and then UT2k3 after work. At Epic we played ... UT2k3 and UC2 and whatever else happened to be on the menu. Here, we don't play a goddamn thing. Hrmph. But between… -
Re: Let Viedeo run in Game Scene
You can import a movie file into UE4 - unfortunately so far I'm having trouble finding a format that works well - the only one I managed to get to work was an uncompressed .AVI which at over 1gb for less than 20 seconds of 480p movie was a bit.... heavy. If you manage to get one in you can right click on it and select the… -
Re: Improving my 3D modeling
Good work at wanting to improve. This isn't a great model for pushing your skills, as it's very simplistic and missing a lot of the tougher cases. The whole avoiding Ngon thing is really dependent on what you are modelling, they are actually totally fine on a flat surface. N-gons are mostly bad in cases where the plane is…
