Re: Your experiences with mod teams?
My recommendation would be to look for existing open-source games to join. There you can usually already download a working game which just needs help in the graphics department, so it is a pretty safe choice. Disadvantage is that you will probably have to deal with not so great/unfinished tools (but this is something not… -
Re: [ Portfolio ] - Brendan Llave, Environment Artist (Almost)
Hey, I really like your work here. I see that you have a blog style going, and your kind of posting your WIP as you go but it would be nice to have some final organized presentation sheets at the end. By this I mean, your showing all your stuff, but I have to kind of dig through it all to really get the gist of how this… -
Re: Mesh resolution
I'd argue there is actually a fairly simple rule of thumb when it comes to normal map vs geometry - which is that if it contributes to silhouette you should be using geometry to represent it. This is heavily context dependent - but it's a robust rule there are of course other reasons to have geometry. one thing I will add… -
Re: Modular roads with unique normal
Agreed. But to clarify a couple of things: Modular simply means that you can assemble a bigger object from smaller, often repeating or exchangeable meshes. Your road bits are still modular, and you wouldn't tile the texure, but repeat/switch your meshes. If you want a basic setup for a freely tiling texture (so not in… -
Re: Simple, artist friendly version control?
You're right, I should add that we're developing it actively and currently use it at our studio for 2+ years now. While we were building it to improve our pipeline internally, we realized it's this is also problem a handful of other Artists and Studios had so we spun it off into an open source project of its own. The… -
SBSAR in Photoshop?
I am trying to do a sort of grand comeback to Photoshop. Blowing dust off my sub I am still paying because of old habit. Chat GPT script writing + Photoshop event listener made it super capable again. Chat made me super helpful one click "crop from master file and export material channels from layercomps " script working… -
Re: Comicon Challenge - choosing a character
I like the new version better though both were pretty easy on the eye's :) What's throwing me off, and it's been this way all along, is her feet are angled down as if she's wearing heels but she's barefoot in all your ref. When you did that model sheet you didn't really account for the fact that she's taking a step in that… -
Asset Pack Textures
Hello, I just wanted to ask what the best practice is with regard to texturing for asset packs for sales. For example I'm working on a pack for a Blacksmith shop, a lot of the items are quite small, tools etc, and are mainly a mix of woods/metals. Am I best texturing individually (per asset), or having one set of maps that… -
Re: Could I kindly request some feedback on a student project?
Looking great so far, but the room is very empty and unfurnished. Are you planning to add more props? If not, I would suggest making a much smaller room, without so much empty space. One other thing seems odd. The supports for the bed canopy are not centered on the legs, and the spiral seems too thin to support the weight.… -
Unwrapping and texture question on model
Hi there so I got this question and bare with me if the answer is so obvious. Just I like to make sure or see if there is something else I should keep in mind for the future. I'm full of questions and get better understand of the pipeline :) So I finish following this tutorial of this model that turned out well. Now I like…
