Everyone has given you *great* advice on what to do, so I'm gonna give you some advice on what to NOT do. I currently hold a position at Electronic Arts as development support and integration for their central art department. As much as I would love to be an artist, I am merely what one might call their "bitch." And this…
Yeah I agree with Johny for the most part, As for Christianity and war or violence in the past I follow what st augustine said "Never judge a philosophy by its abuse". If you can read jesus' teachings its pretty obvious he didnt expect his followers to go dishing out Gods wrath on people but hundreds of years ago not many…
Yea,I totally understand what you guys are saying. I am more like an observer of that project. My proposition was that they work on nerve gear first cuz games can be done later easily. But they are probably some kids and dont know much about any of this. Can you explain more about how real dispacement maps work and…
I had a similiar issue of having some kind of shared content between projects that all my colleagues could use and edit, and my fix was to do the following(windows only): 1. Create a basic engine plugin(without any C++ code) following the guidelines in EPICS own documentation:…
Thanks Darkleopard. yeah, the hips/thighs are pretty big. it was inspired by comments from a previous post by a member mentioning chun li's 'trademark thighs' were missing from my earlier attempts. after a lot of to-ing and fro-ing about what kind of physique i should aim for, this was the one i settled for. **UPDATE**…
So i made a little step by step list to follow and for anyone else around me. Photoshop 01. Make sure your photoshop is in english, and that means its installed as an english version. It does not matter if you just change the language setting. 02. Make sure photoshop has admin rights to launch 03. Make sure photoshop is…
Thanks for the replies cryrid - I really really appreciate it. Honestly, I'm slow to dealing with it bc I'm dreading the process. If I may, here's another follow-up: why wouldn't I need to subdivide, even if I baked maps in another program? Essentially, I don't truly get how high-poly detail can be transferred to a low…
Damn, that sounds really nasty. I did a scan with HijackThis immediately. I was really glad that entry didn't show up. @Shotgun: I would recommend installing HijackThis. You can make a log file with it and post it on the Spyware Warrior forums. If something nasty has installed itself on your computer they can help you get…
This tutorial is good, a nice quick and easy way to produce some good looking results. The follow up tutorials also help with optimizing the models for use in games if you need a lower poly version. http://saschahenrichs.blogspot.com/2010/03/3dsmax-environment-modeling-1.html I literally just made some rocks for an…
Sorry about the lack of capitalization in my posts. I think a major problem is I've never "paid my dues" so to speak and followed a tutorial to fully create a character that I didn't design. Perhaps it's my trying to go right into making my own models from the ground up that has been the biggest obstacle in my way. I'm…
