Re: What are you listening to?
:( no one posts anymore anywho thought i'd try something different since a lot of people are okay with aye-eye here i "found" this by accident and thought the music industry is pretty screwed since this is pretty tight track. 100% still not in support of it nor promoting it, it is an example that whomever is doing music… -
Re: Making sense of hard edges, uvs, normal maps and vertex counts
Except that I didn't do that. Its just a regular old UV layout, it isn't obsessive compulsively welded together to minimize seams, nor is is set up to use a lot of hard edges. For instance, if the sight was meant to go into an engine that doesn't support synced normals, it would need even more uv splits to support the hard… -
Automating quad topology for dense meshes (workflow discussion)
I’ve been working on quad remeshing workflows for animation and game assets, specifically around edge flow consistency and deformation safety. Most automatic remeshers are fine for previews, but I kept running into problems on denser meshes where diagonals and uneven flow made rigging unpredictable. Below is a before/after… -
Re: [WIP] SHIFT - Game Cinematic Trailer Project - Environment Artist Dev Log - Third-Year Uni Project
I would like to share our animatic done by our amazing concept artists Valen Kua and Nanxi Ong: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8JXgxgZlwa0 Here are some shots that I assembled the character rigs and animation done by my teammates and I have also added in some basic lighting in Unreal Engine just for the feel and vibe.… -
Stylized Themed Environment work (ZBrush required)
We require stylized casual game themed environments and prop models. All work will require some ZBrush sculpting. No optimization or texturing required. Only sculpted props, simple vehicles and some environments. Here are a few example images (not our projects, only examples of style):… -
Re: Looking for friendly advice on how to get the ball rolling
To add to what fabiG says. Modding is a brilliant way to get started. Something as simple as reskinning assets or building maps for a game you play is a really good introduction to how game development works and you get that dopamine hit from seeing your thing running around on screen pretty rapidly. Keeping scope small at… -
Re: Tips on making the transition from Max to Maya
yeah haha I guess that was a dumb example. I was more exaggerating about what I thought DJ_ meant when he said to simply use 'snap' for both of his examples. I guess he could have meant snap align though... But even if that's the case, my point was that you shouldn't just give up on a workflow that you find more efficient… -
Re: Police Station Model
Looks like a fine start, but are the windows are floating on top of one big box? I would get rid of the big box, build the window with trim and surrounding building shapes, then copy it across the front. This makes modular pieces of everything. (I have an example) I built the top window, with the inset and trim around it,… -
Classic Art Inspiration for Game Artists
Hey folks, For years now I've been noticing how disconnected we are from classical art as digital artists. There is such a treasure trove of brilliant creative thought and yet we still usually go to the same 3 places as source of inspiration. The OGs have some amazing takes on dramatic lighting, environment composition or… -
Re: UDK Anoying Normal Map Seam Doesn't Make Any Sense.
From what I can tell and what I've read, you'll get better results by mirroring horizontally. I don't think you should attempt to mirror both horizontally and vertically at the same time like in your latest examples because vertically just does not work well at all. If you look at your new examples the horizontal mirroring…
