Hello A topic that often baffles me, and I very rarely have a way around it that isn't just.. have the two elements be seperate and just clip each other slightly. I'm hoping the title gives it away but I will provide some examples with what I mean just in case. When constructing a model that has a certain part of its…
I'd like to hear opinions on what I somehow noticed maybe not in every but many recent games as a trend. I mean not an exactly same "uncanny valley " people discussed decade ago about Beowoolf and Polar express and imo related mostly to animation but rather more subtle, more general thing a picture get after crossing…
poopipe From what I see in the node Designer just makes copies scaled down images till 2x2 pix where it perform roughly same and upscale back . Instead of doing blur or Sobel like . But it's extremely hard to read and figure out form their math nodes really as if they specifically tried to make it cryptic vs Blender for…
Maybe a bit offtopic and i do not want to rant: Isn't this exactly "the problem" also in other areas (even other "industries") ? "The industry" does not define clear standards (and also the management fires everyone doing the real work).. So not only the newbies does not know what to put into their portfolio but also the…
There’s a lot of advice that a portfolio should only showcase your very best work. But what happens if your best work isn’t directly relevant to the role you’re aiming for? For example, let’s say you’re applying for a position in 3D architectural visualization. Your strongest 3D model is actually a highly detailed car,…
Thanks okidoki I need something like in your last google image search example. 2-s decals laying next to each other. Using particle paint shader is a nice idea actually but I am afraid it may require to recreate the whole game physics in Blender with dozens of cars . Probably would be easier to ask our programmers . So far…
This is an example of a spot that has a black outline from certain angles when baked in marmoset, with transparency on to see the difference between low and high poly. For example, I have been trying to fix it by manually making the top edge closer to the high poly.
@meejeebee Welcome to Polycount. Consider checking out the forum information and introduction thread and the dedicated modeling and topology thread. This is a great resource with examples of common topology routing solutions for a variety of different shapes and active community members that work together to solve more…
Hey guys, again thanks for the support, and crits. It helps greatly. More Greens on the Bronze it is! I'll whip up a quick example, and post it when I can. I am up north at the moment helping a friend move. I'll post up some wire frames as soon as I get back. @ DWalker: I had to use a darker Brown Lime stone for the Main…
Mainly I mean texture-only work, maybe with some slight reflection map shenannigans if needed. it doesn't have to be pixel-perfect stuff or anything. I know that there was an example of a flowing river in a game, but I cannot remember for the life of me, so this is close enough to what I'm talking about.
