Re: Am I allowed to rant? Non-contributing community members. (Uh oh!)
I have to say the biggest thing as a community I ever see as far as getting people to budge/ work together has been hard competition. As pixelmasher said On the opposite side of the coin we see alot of artist who act like they dont know there bad ass, post a few beauty renders, and then every kid from hobbiest to AI post… -
Re: The future of storytelling in video games.
I think one of the main atributes which seperate computer-games from other kinds of media is the interactivity. No matter what kind of game you play, you always have choices to take and interactions available. For the field of story-telling I'm missing the fact, that my interactions in the virtual world really reflect on… -
Re: Ram issues in Designer
So I took a look at your substance. From my perspective it seems that your are a bit confused by the resolution system of Designer. It seems you want to output textures at 4K, but Designer works in your ram to be efficient. When I opened you graph my computer consumed a total amount of 15gb of ram. This can result is some… -
Re: What to learn to be a great texture artist.
@Neox Substance Designer can be used to make shaders, MDL for example and there's ongoing work to integrate MaterialX. To the OP, we have lots of resources to help with understanding how Naughty Dog does their textures: https://polycount.com/discussion/122359/the-last-of-us-art-dump-rogelio-olguin/p1 Great post from… -
Losing Your Artistic Voice to Convenient Asset Packs
Hello everyone, I'd like to know your opinion on the widespread use that many developers are making of Megascans (to name one example) and other paid or free asset packs in their one-person or small-team development projects. It's not just once or twice or three times that I've recognized the same asset pack in different,… -
Re: Streaming blocks of prefabs -- is it the best way??
I'm glad you find it useful. There's a lot of scripts, shaders, lighting, LODs and Unity settings all working together so it's a challenge to explain it all clearly. To qualify everything I write: I'm not an engineer and I don't pretend to be. I work closely with them, I do a lot of scripting but I stay out of their code.… -

Most of the time I cut around the thumb and alongside the side of the fingers until i reach the little finger. Then relax and fin. (I'm just posting here images I found on the internetzz bc I… -

Re: Roko and Lilo – Life as a Bird (3D Animation Short)
I'm not sure what your goal is here with these videos? I watched a couple of them out of curiosity and your description seems to be doing a lot of the heavy lifting by telling me who these characters are. They didn't have any story or dialogue (despite the characters mouths opening and closing). The animation reads as… -
Re: Peer Review on Website/Resume/Portfolio/Cover Letter
Your rig pose and skin pose can be different, they don't need to match. So you can rig in a T but once the rigging is done you can deform it into the A-Pose and skin your mesh. sometimes it is easier to model in an T-pose too, but after the hands and arms are done deform it into a A pose so you can work on the shoulders.…
