Re: My substance materials
Ill try to answear this one maybe Bugo can expand. I think you mean how to make a tiling texture not look tiled when tiling or lessen the effect. Several things to this... short answer is practice. but some general guidelines below to follow... I am sure we can make a huge list of guidelines and workflows when it comes to… -
Re: Kismet... a little intimidating?
okie dokie. first off.. i think you are confusing kismet with the material editor. like the material editor (and the post process editor and the animtree editor and maybe some others).. kismet is node-based.. which is where i am assuming your confusion of this comes from. now anyway, this is a topic that i guess is great… -
Re: WildStar
That's the point. Ever MMO game I remember had hype and anticipation. The bigger the harder it failed. TORTanic is best recent example. Gods, they even copied skills from WoW... AoC is also very good example, how you will end up if you fallow leader in this genere. Only exception was Guild Wars 2. And that's soelely… -
Re: First gun - Sci-fi/Industrial Pistol
so some of this is looking a bit odd. lets break it down. so its a revovler yea? ok, so how do you reload it? the chamber typically is able to break off to the side in order for you to put in the bullets. by the looks of your design. this isnt possible.… -
Re: 3DS Max - UVing complex objects
hi guys, I have to admit I am a bit skeptical about doing it the way described above as it produces a lot of warping. That usually happens when normalizing a trapezoid poly for example to a rectangle. (as can be seen with the checker texture warping above) I`d suggest an alternative approach (both are surely valid for… -
Re: Looking for some feedback!
If you're going for props/environments its probably best to get rid of character stuff and focus on making a few really solid environments or props. I think people general advice is to focus on either stylised or realistic, so focus your artstyle on the kind of studios you want to work for. For example, if your goal is to… -
Re: Specify Dimensions In 3DSmax
It's not that I don't understand the math, I can write this stuff up in MEL pretty easily. I just don't know the syntax, and that takes time to learn. I wrote a script this morning that snaps an object to the nearest grid point and it took me quite awhile to do because I kept getting a syntax error that turned out to be a… -
Re: [Portfolio] James Benson, Animator
I'm not sure if this reel is good enough to get you a job, yet. The major thing that stands out to me right now is your timing. Everything is too slow with very little anticipation on any of your action. I'll focus on the fight scene at the beginning to hopefully show you why. The gut punch is a very good example of the… -
Re: Level designer vs. Enviro artist
My summary would be: A level is a discrete section of a game which has a beginning and an end, and does not comprise the entire game. Therefore I'd suggest that a game like an MMORPG like World of Warcraft doesn't really have "levels" as such, since it's all tied in as part of a big interconnecting world that the player… -
Re: My first WIP post ---The T-Rex in High Poly
off topic: i'm just now starting to realize the extent of my ego and come out of it. the minute you stop being proud of yourself is the minute you'll realize that you can acctualy learn and better yourself. i remember being in grade 10 and thinking 3d logos were cool because i 'knew' 3d. it impressed my classmates. i…
