Re: Head unwrapping - methods
I find doing the above is a good way to start. I then stitch it back together and try to preserve proportion as best I can - max has really powerful relax tools which help blend the shells together. I try to avoid too many shells as it can have an impact on LODs -
Re: Can not get the right padding
I think 16 means the total width between the shells. And around 16 between shells should be more than enough for a 2048. It's not really an exact science anyhow. Test and see in your target hardware. Different games will filter the textures differently, so you may never see any problems. -
Re: Newbie Normal Mapper - Kinks in the workflow, black blotches
I follow ya on all but "diagonal UV shells." Does that refer to UV shells in the map that are located physically diagonal from each other? Does this negatively affect things? The workflow I followed for this was to unwrap the whole body and then split it into pieces to make the sculpting less intensive and not drag down my… -
Re: [Showcase] Updated older artwork and curated Portfolio for 2025
Thanks! I haven't received any feedback yet, so this is the first. The posing for zhou yu is more in line with his character in the film. (general giving orders) There is one fight scene in the movie, and I do want to make a horse for him to ride and pose with. What kind of pose would you recommend? With this pose, I… -
Re: N.O.A
here is the ZBrush screen cap of the rescue pod. This Rescue Pod is actually designed by a Chinese in preparation for the 2012 Mayan end-of-the-world predictions. NOA is along this theme as well. there are many similar pods designed in real life for tsunami but i like this one because of the big text over its yellow… -
Re: [implemented idea] Ice Lina (completely new particles)
@Spudnik and Vlad, there's ways to criticize work without being complete assess. Saying there's "virtually no actual work put into it" is also a bit much. The particles are definitely updated to tweak it to the ice theme. It's not just a hue shift of her stock particles. That being said, I agree it's not that fitting. It's… -
Re: Which game would have the best market? And make the most Money?
Well, casual game - Make a simple "cookie clicker" where you water plants and they automatically grow, flies attempts to eat on your plants thus destroying them so you need to swat them away, once a plant is finished you need to click on it to collect it. Then you could throw in powerups that water all the plants,… -
Re: Uncharted 4
Interesting, I thought that Uncharted was really the first time characters felt like actual people and not video game characters. Animation in the Division is great and the quality of the art is top notch but the characters just look like generic video game characters, there is no emotion, barely any facial expression, the… -
Re: Diablo 3 on consoles
@eld: Never assume anything. Just because Beta is out and being played doesn't mean they won't start tweaking things for the console market. I doubt they will, but never assume it. I was reading some comments somewhere that got me thinking. How will some of the spells work on a controller. Alot of skills in D2 need the… -
Re: Looking for feedback on my first portfolio piece!
Really nice colors and lighting, definately this piece has a nice feel which is very important, so good job! I feel your environment is the strongest tho, the character rendering feels a bit pasted on there because it is facing us and has flat shading. here's a few pointers that you might want to take into account in your…
