Re: blatant WoW art ripoff on android/iOS/Bada/symbian
damn Zpanzer beat me too it :D nice one! as for comparision pics I can't make pics at the moment, because I am visiting my parents and I am on my mums linux netbook, with a super tiny screen :) but just look at this pic and compare it to the model at 0:13 seconds into the vid in my initial post. same applies for a lot of… -
Re: Max - Simple Material UI edit?
The only way to do this is a "scripted plugin" in Maxscript, like my shader. It's about as difficult as it gets in terms of maxscript, hence why our code can be a bit flaky and could do with an overhaul (both me and RJ became much more experienced with maxscript after releasing it). Also, we put so much effort into this… -
Re: How to approach Rigging/Binding Armor and Props?
Hey Kyle. I think the easiest solution for your rig is actually just to parent the meshes to the bones of your skeleton. This will keep things separate and allow you to make changes if you need to easily. Also, since each individual piece will not deform (for armor or weapon pieces), it will animate the way you are… -
Re: Run Cycle WIP
The "stuttering" could be a lot of different things; - You might just have some keys that are too close together. - You might have keys that are between frames. This can happen if you try to move keys to a frame that already has keys, instead of replacing the ones that already exist, it will offset the new ones a tiny bit… -
Re: Game Art School. Need help choosing!

I would say that any Game Art… -
Re: State of the Industry: Why you should or should not give up.
A: What positive keeps you in this career or wanted career? Even with all the doom and gloom. I can't picture myself doing anything else. I love creating art, I love the technical side of it. Yeah I don't have a job, and my parents constantly pressured me into changing my major into engineering or joining the military, but… -
Re: Please let me know what you think of my WIP
Short answer is that you did some edge loops or something after doing the skin bind. Long answer because I'm procrastinating bigtime! So when you do certain actions/modifiers on a model, like bevel or add an edge loop for example, a history node is created that stores what was affected and the parameters of that operation.… -
Re: Staying Motivated as an Artist
1- You're more accomplished and aware of what you want to do than a lot of people are by your age. You're still young, take your time, and don't worry about the fire too much. That comes and goes. 2- Beating Dustin to the punch: http://www.dustinbrown.com/getshitdone/ You have to learn to work without the "fire". Ignore… -
Re: Harry Potter V -- beware spoilers
haha skrubbles, i felt the same thing about sirius' death. it was well done, though i do agree harry's reaction shouldnt've been in slow-mo. as for saying that the cut parts were not important to the series.... okay, all those who've seen the movie and not read the book: Do you have any reason for thinking Neville might be… -
Re: need tips on "shave and haircut" for Maya
Hi I was wondering if anyone has lighting issues with shave and haircut for maya 2010. I have one directional light and 2 spotlights. I use the spotlights for reflections in the eyeballs so i parented the eyes and the lights together and i put them in the same visibility layers. I use the directional light to fake the…
