Re: will you be trading up for black & Green?
[ QUOTE ] Who needs a 120 GB drive? I have a 10 GB, and I have only used 1 GB of it. From what I read, you can't transfer your own videos onto the hard drive, anyone know if it is possible? [/ QUOTE ] I know of atleast 4 people who constantly run to the bottom of their hard-drive cos they're too lazy to delete all those HD… -
Re: Gears of War PSP Character
Snader: Yeah, I woke up the next morning and was wondering the same thing. Especially since I set myself a specific tri count (500 tris) I don't think its worth making the extra cuts in the geometry anyways. However, if your working on a project for a studio where its all about optimization, maybe the extra geometry would… -
Re: Iridescence in Designer?
The metallic map in the substance shaders effectively acts as a mask - anything white will allow coloured specular reflectance (taken from Basecolor)and sets the basecolor to black, anything black falls back to a reflectance value of plastic. If you want a coloured highlight you need it to be metal. Going to spec gloss… -
Re: Environment - Temple Courtyard
Thanks for the feedback guys. Carlos - I didn't implement much of your suggestions YET but I will surely be exporing a way to show more story in here to bring it to life. Hopefully without blood LOL! Def. gonna fix up the ends of the beams though. ScottPetty - I retried my roof tiles but couldn't get it to look quite… -
Re: "Games Now Legally Considered an Art Form in the USA"
Art is subjective it true, and it is always carried around by it's medium of choice, but it clearly universally must inspire and bring emotion into play for it to be art. I can draw a picture of a naked lady, but that doesn't make it art, Picasso could that do, but unless he brings in a new perspective to it, drawing… -
Re: Goldeneye Wii
I finally caved and picked up a wii this weekend, got the mario red one. Grabbed goldeneye and dead space extraction which was done by the same guys (eurocom). the art in both games is fucking stellar for being on the wii. the lighting in some areas of goldeneye rivals some nextgen stuff ive seen, not in terms of shadow… -
Re: [Portfolio] Talbot
for someone coming outta highschool it looks like you have a handle on this 3d stuff. For the content of your portfolio here are some crits, I dunno if i would go back and touch the objects up but more stuff to keep in mind for the future. 1st thing that jumped out at me was the texture sizes, 2048 is rarely used for… -
Re: another crazy lawsuit?!?
His mom embarrassed him. Boo hoo. It hardly warrants legal action. On the other hand though, just for the sake of thinking about things: What if it wasn't his mom? What if it was just some other adult who took it upon themselves to mess with his account and post things about him/as him/whatever? I'm inclined to think most… -
Re: chatacter art - Shifting from realtime to "cg(?)"
That is a good level to aspire to, I can't entirely say that you have to be at that level to get a job only doing sculpts. An artist of that caliber can create his own market, and his focus is on the artistic result of the piece while knowing what is needed to achieve the end result. Getting a job also depends on the… -
Re: (Student) First Big Mech Build
You're WAY oversmoothing those shapes. There's about nine hundred miles of extra tesselation there for what you're after. Look up some of the hard surface / subdiv modeling tutorials and reference here on Polycount and elsewhere on the web; you'll be amazed how little geometry is needed to properly describe hard surfaces…
