Re: What's the best way to get the normal/AO and Spec maps for a diffuse texture?
Yes and no. You can use something like nDo for creating normal map details in 2D: http://quixel.se/dev/ndo However, a normal map isn't simply detail. Its a complex set of math that uses the normals from the high poly to replace the low poly's mesh normals. You'll never be able to paint a normal map to the same accuracy,… -
Re: Danny the Dog/ Unleashed. Jet Li done right
Hrmm, I thouhgt the pacing was fine. Sure, I wanted more fight scenes, but I felt that the middle part of the film was needed to show Jet's struggle with learning to be human again. I will agree with the pit fighting though. As soon as I saw the spiked hair, the fishnet costumes, and the skateboarding pads the contestants… -
Portfolio Advice - Can't get my first role
Hey Guys, I'm sure you all get this a lot and I'm sure a lot of you like me really yearn to be in this business but never seem to be given a shot. I can accept it but I keep getting told different things so now I'm kind of lost, dazed, confused whatever you want to call it. I went to a games recruiter recently (who still… -
Re: m7 Maveric [WIP]
Oh man, some sweeet modelling over here. Can't wait to see it textured. It looks to me that your working in 3DSMax.

If… -
Re: What is the consensus on 3DConnexion hardware?

It comes off the shelf every year or so and I try to get it working with software I use then goes back on the shelf I really like them and if you use software that has driver support and you do something that takes advantage of the hardware (not modelling… -
Re: Help! What can I do to get to a more professional level
I looks like you have a good foundation - It's really about getting into the details. What you are making right now would make for good concepts or visual designs. But if you want to work in games, or on production assets, you need to build up more than just the minimum required to fill a single perspective shot. Firstly -… -
Re: A horse is a horse yadda yadda (update WIP)
[ QUOTE ] I might be able to help get him into the game, if you can tollerate a little adjustment to make him proportional and rigged to the Gen Mo'Kai Skeleton. Otherwise I'd say custom animation would be your best bet. [/ QUOTE ] Thanks, that would definitely be appreciated. After reading your post I was able to find a… -
Re: XMD Custom Zbrush / 3D Coat / Substance Brushes
Some have asked the best use of the skin brushes. Instead of me spending the time re-uploading them, my advice would be to change the brush to Inflate, reload the alpha from the pallet, set the intensity very low, turn the draw size up to what you need and set the Z to Zsub. Sorry I didn't save them in this way, but its… -

zBrush's damn camera
I've been learning zBrush over the last year and in every learner forum post i see, I always see posts about the camer and how it works. Does anyone actually like zBrush's camera settings? I absolutely can't stand it still. Everyone's always like "oh you'll get used to it, it'll make sense later." To this day, I still…
