Re: Make something unreal contest - 2011?
Yep, don't need a prize to enter an art comp and kick some arse... But F all this prize hate, cool prizes and big $$ is awesome fun (especially for starving artists and college kids). There is certainly room for both. Edit: Oh yeah, I also got an honoreable mention in the last make something unreal contest for my FPS mod.… -
Re: Achieving Realistic Look
Thanks for the time. :) So as far as I look everywhere, yes Directional Light doesn't have any units it's only a multiplier so converting Lux to Lumens doesn't really help. :( When setting the directional light intensity at 20 which is pretty high, and looking at a white surface like that my LRGB is 006.375 (not sure what… -
Re: I'm in an art rut - what's your drive to create?
having done all my work for school / mod projects up until a few months back, i never really had a problem findin something to work on. Now, i have no projects, so i'm constantly in a rut for what to do. I've found makin car models, as I'm a vehicle enthusiast, keeps me motivated. Also, thanks to how well I knot Unreal Ed… -
Re: What to do after college - going indie?
if it's for running your own enterprise, you can count anything that teaches you the ropes as experience. Actually I've seen some really cool student projects made in Unity which could just as well have been made by actual hired people in a small studio. If it's for a job, then we're talking job experience - time spent in… -
Re: Teaching self maya. bwaaagggillyglyjaaargfunkit
I started to switch, but PLE bothers me to no end. Since I was on a few mods at the time I needed something that was functional. The only thing PLE let me do was make crappy watermarked renders. I was using G-max and Milkshape to do mod work, it was disheartening but not as much as PLE. Since a full (legit) copy of Max7… -
Re: Scott Homer - Humvee WIP.
Thanks for the quick replies! @Frell, is there any particular position you think would perhaps show me model of to its full potential? I am currently working on an abandoned aircraft hangar to put behind the model to give it some kinda of context. @Orgoth02, Thanks dude, the brown bumpy normals around the arches are Mud,… -
Creation Engine exercice (making stuff for Skyrim)
So, I've been wanting to experiment with Skyrim's engine. I figured it'd give me a little challenge to be able to model & texture an actual game model instead of the usual Marmoset or UDK render. I finally chose a simple sword & and shield for my Nord ranger :P I'm following a few tutorials, but surprisingly, they aren't… -
Gamemode Workshop
I'm surprised that nobody is talking about custom game modes yet! Personally I think custom game modes will be a great addition to the workshop. I've read this on http://www.ongamers.com/articles/dota-2-7th-march-patch-content-analysis/1100-1001/ Custom gamemode strings. + "game_mode_15" "CUSTOM" +… -
Blade Runner/Cyberpunk Streets
Hey Polycount! I have not done a wip in forever, so I think I'm going to jump on this now... I'm aiming for the middle of Blade Runner and Cyberpunk 2077. Latest: Heres a reference board that happened: Started last weekend past so I have done some bits. I'm thinking I will throw all the assets into UE4 so I can get a… -
weapon texture creation question
Anyone seen any good tutorials for making good blacks and silvers for guns? I've searched all over google but nothing really great. One site had a good example but skipped key features/filters in photoshop. Thought someone would be kind enough to help me here. I'm looking for any detailed tutorials on this. I've been…
