The relax feature is cool, but I was trying to use it today and it didn't want to work most of the time. I tried using the rectify which worked better in some cases. A programmer at work made a tool quite a while back like your relax tool, but idk what he did, but I can take a poly strip that's in a complete circle, cut it…
I am leaning towards being a character artist. And after thinking hard about it, I won't go with the short film idea, it will just take too much time to create and render. So I will stick with a character in a small environment turning around with a dynamic, animated idle pose. I'll most likely do this in max, since I'm…
If you have an ACM account, this is a good paper. http://portal.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=1281608 One of the Lead Artists on the PGR series had a talk at the Develop 2007 conference, and a PDF on the Develop site, called "Textures and Shaders in the HD Era". Might try to find that. Also there was another Develop 2007 talk…

Probably not a good idea to move bones in the default skeleton to fit your model; the animations will probably be way off, or not work at all. I wrote a tutorial back for ut2003 that covers this stuff. Still the same process for ut2004, only thing extra is a vehicle driving pose and an additional idle anim. My tutorial is…
Damn, there is one near me, but I don't have the dough for it. I haven't been THAT interested in a 360 (mainly because my kids play the systems mostly), but that's a damn good price. Edit: I also just came across this... You can get the HD-DVD add on for $160 at Circuit City with this coupon:…
The way that fence beneath the porch goes into the ground seems off. Idk if thats how it normally is but i feel it needs something to finish it off. Maybe my OCD wants it to be framed on all sides... The outward fence seems too irregular at the top but very regular on the sides, like its brand new and someone broke every…
Hey guys not really an update but just tried some editing to the topmost image. Is it helping or hurting it? I feel like I like this edit less up close but more from further away, idk. The contrast and detail is slightly less but I tried a couple things to try to get a little bit more of a photorealism, cinematic,…
Updating everyone that I have finished a database rebuild for the website. There are still edits that need to be made to the primary data set that is displayed directly, but if you're ever curious about the full database I have made that available in Excel and PDF formats. I am certain there remain many events that I am…
Dimfist thank you for the critique I think I'm starting to not just see but understand whats wrong with the waist/pelvic to the leg area. It is a slow process studying anatomy I feel like my biggest issue is I'm not registering what I am seeing with anatomy, if that makes sense? anyways about the arms idk if I agree, they…
