Re: Taking games seriously
To add on to what Swizzle said, the biggest hurdle for evolving and refining games is that they don't have much in the way of established creative production models to draw on. Film and theater are the two parallels people frequently try to make, and we even mimic a lot of the production and studio concepts that evolved in… -
Re: .-| Week 8 - The Weekly Hard Surface Challenge |-.
Nice video Max seems to have some great time saving tools Maya should adopt. I made my bolt in Maya by taking a poly cube then smoothing it to level 3. Then cutting it in half, moving the pivot on the z axis to end of the cube. Flataning it a little, then selecting a cross of faces on the front and extruding and flataning.… -
Re: Flagpost and dock for Unreal full conv mod.
Someone on your team should make a blockout map. That way all the scale issues are worked out and all you need to do is re-import/replace the blockout static meshes. Just keep the pivots in the same location and you should be all set. Congrats on finding a team to work with btw, looks like you guys are past the planning… -

Re: 4 Game Cycle Animations
Whats she doing with her right arm? it needs to be up to block her face. Even the left arm should be kept higher. The kick feels very wimpy, does she fully extend the kick? She needs to pivot a bit more and crunch down as she kicks. It looks like a little kid taking karate lessons for the first time. -
Re: Rigging
I'd just link up all of the separate pieces to wach other going up with their pivot points set wherever you need to. You can then use the IK Spline solver or whatever it's called (only used it once, for a class assignment) and work it like that. The user reference should have better info in it than I can provide at this… -
Re: Making biped into bones?
Ya it's easy... you make your biped, pose it, and then you take a snapshot of it with the snapshot tool, and u save the snapshot as a seperate copy, and then you simply convert all the extra stuff into editable meshes.. im pretty sure they keep their hierarchy and pivot points, which is the only thing thats really… -
Re: BattleStar Galactica Thread -final season
I have to agree, whenever the story veers off towards Baltar's messiah-ish storyline or Lee's politics it's such a snoooozefest. Of course, this might be pivotal in the future but it's hard to stay interested in the side stuff when the main objective is so engaging. But yeah... Lee as prez, sure didn't see that one coming… -
Tire tracks in Photoshop that turn how to?
Basically I want to tile a tire tracks pattern around a path I created in Photoshop. See image below, anyone know how to create that in Photoshop? I've tried creating a custom brush and stroking the path, but the pivot point of each stamp of the brush is centered so as soon as my path turns a corner it overlaps itself. Any…
