I now see this after answering the other.. simply: no. If you have a 2D texture then you can't simply pull this into 3D. It may work for example for some sand texture and you have somekind of sandheap.. but as mentioned: a brick texture changes if you "got into 3D" simply because the bricks are layed in some other pattern…
Grats on finishing a new folio piece! The above posters have given some great advice. I recently finished a scene where I had several camera shots similar to yours. Where it was a bunch of props laid out on a table. These were the techniques that helped me push more story telling into my shots and hope they can also help…
Hi polycounters, I have been working as a lighting artist on the game Remember Me published by capcom and released in june this year, and I was willing to share to screenshots showing the different passes that compose an image in our game. We don't see much pure lighting threads on the forum and I think it is kind of…
Hey Everyone. So I'm working on a presentation to present at a local convention like anime, sci-fi, games, an overall general convention of entertainment. I wanted to give a presentation at one of them about being a Game Developer and Animator for those who have an interest in the Game Industry. The audience would range…
So I bought this book because I heard a lot of good things about it. To tell you the truth, the example steps taken are incomplete with missing information and is filled vague steps that are left for interpretation. I'll post the one Amazon book review that really struck a chord with me: "In contrast to the glowing reviews…
What you are asking is quad re-mesher. As far as i know Blender doesn't have it same good as in Zbrush, 3d max or Houdiny. Same as in Zbrush one is having been sold as an inexpensive addon for Blender with a free trial. Neighter of them are good enough to make clean cutting edge of a blade for example. You can try nodes of…
Disclaimer: While I'm a programmer, I haven't written a "proper" render engine. Some of what I say is from my own experience, and therefore may be less than 100% true. With that said... First off, one thing that we should be clear on with half/float/doubles are approximations of decimal numbers. Computers don't really have…
hey, well, in essence your work is great. From a technical point of view everything is done properly as far as I can tell. You acquired the mechanical skills .... but your work is lacking some kind of WOW effect. Every image I look at I´m getting the feeling its either not finished or it was done quickly. Maybe create…
Here's some tips to producing really low spec art: Go as low as possible. TBH, if this game were made on DS, these would be sprites because they would look better as sprites that always face the camera. But, for this example, I'll model to explain some things. Four sides looks as round as 6 sides on the small screen. So…
If i understand this correctly you want to change all textures but not with some internal settings (nowadays maybe with nodes). So maybe with some node based images processing tools.. like for example mentioned here: https://www.pixcores.com/2022/01/4-free-open-source-node-based-image-editor ?? So you can use the same…
