Re: nausicaa knife ( 7 hours)
I think are you rushing through the steps too fast. You would really benefit from slowing down until you have a thorough understanding of each step. For instance, you have multiple bake errors in your normal map. Taking the time to learn how to bake a clean normal and AO map will be more valuable to you then completing… -
Re: Using stuff from tutorials in your portfolio
Its pretty easy to understand why some people would do it. Just think of Lego or gundam or any other hobby for crafting miniature models with step by step guides. I think you can apply the same kind of mentality with making 3d as well, the process of completing the tutorial "correctly" can give a sense of achievement.… -
Blender - Parenting armature with auto-weights is just not right
So, every tutorial I see people get good results with auto-weights but I’m getting complete abhorent results. My step-by-step is: * create rigify meta-rig; * place everything in edit mode. * generate rig, apply the transforms to the model and to the controller set. * selecting model and then controller set and parent with… -
Making local maps via 3ds max, zbrush, melody etc?
Hey guys. I'm having a bit of trouble. I have 2 models, one is the low poly mesh and the other is the high poly mesh with the detail on. The problem I'm having is that I cant for the life of me get a decent normal map from it. I've even tried Doom 3's renderbump and it comes out just wrong looking Is there by chance a step… -

Re: Approximated Sub Surface Scattering Demo - UDK
I don't get it. Should we bake an inverted HighPoly Mesh of the Lowpoly version, like standard baking method? (Cuz for me it just don't work. I've used Xnormal and 3DSMax, and both renders are fu****up.) Or should we bake a HighPoly mesh AO which mean that the highpoly version should have UVs. It would be great to have a… -
Re: [Weekly Theme 8] Animal locomotion

Re: specular mask in alpha channel
I figured the best way to learn stuff would be to look at assets from games and mess with em, so yes, it's for educational purposes. That, and I want to see what halo ships would look like in space engine. :) So a bit of personal use, too, I guess. GIMP. I already tried to do this once, but it's not as simple as pasting…
