Yes, the main learning experience would be not to fall under the idea that third party plug-ins can solve a big portion of the code and you can rely half of your game on that. It usually ends in a time sink of patch fixes, updates, and dependencies hell. I think is better to try to code everything yourself and the only…
I fully agree, I'm also not a fan of overblown high-budget experiences like recent COD games that offer little, to no depth (talking about the single player here, so don't hate on me yet :p ) and I've always been a huge fan of games that go right to the point. However, unlike Braid, Portal doesn't aspire to be something…
Hi guys Does anyone how could I access modifiers or subobjects in the stack of a selected object without leaving the expert mode? A quad menu would be great Cheers
Hello guys I was wondering how to make a complex shader. I hopended a scene from unreal market place but is a bit difficult understand each node. Thank you at all ;)
Hi here is something I made while on the trains to and from work and in the little free time I had. Was mostly to practice at PBR rendering. I am gonna start being more active here and try and improve my skills at modeling. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X-Jaoh-zQD8&feature=youtu.be I wanted to create a scene that worked…
Hey folks, I am pulling my hair out trying to find the Brush feature called wrap mode in Zbrush 3.5 R3. This feature was basically the offset filter in Photoshop for making tileable textures. Does anybody know if this feature still exists in the latest ZBrush?
to be honest I see no difference at all. Alpha is still ugly binary as hell. As well as mip blurring of the color channel itself. They have some "attempt at improving the shape edges" group inside but I couldn't understand what they are actually trying to do there. Hoped it would work ok in 32 bit since the issue is not…
Does anyone know how? I see "mesh to points" with "face" drop down choice that puts a point in a center of a face. And normal node to align an instance Z axis with a face normal vector. But no way to rotate the instance properly around that normal like what regular instance on face does in object properties. My guess we…
Yeah, I can see where that feeling comes from. A lot of pipelines today optimize for scalability and consistency rather than uniqueness. Procedural tools made production much more predictable, but at the same time they tend to converge toward similar visual patterns. At the same time though, I’m not sure the material side…
Well obviously if you modify anything heavily enough it will be able to perform completely differently. I imagine huge amounts of the original code have been re-written / replaced / removed, you probably wouldn't recognise much Q3 about it after all these years of CoD development. It might have resembled Q3 back in CoD1…
