Re: RED ORCHESTRA 2 $9.99 ON STEAM
ya sounds like the new editoion was mainly meant to revive, and get new people, with the classic and action mode thing, with action being a faster paced less realistic mode similar to bf or cod. -
Re: Unwrap3D to get peltmapping
they offer a lot of features so, and being opensource its extremely helpful to see feature implementations. atm I am exactly doing that working to get the unwrapper from it to max. after all it's "just" the awful ui of blender, that stops it from being a lot more useable, and I think that is something that will not… -
Re: Insomniac Spiderman Retopo (Help)
Who do you think asked Dustin to come around to answer your question? :) I know its exciting and there is so much one could do and learn and experience and all. But calm down, one step at a time.. all of this is mighty complex and there is soooooo much one can learn, at any given time. I'd suggest you to finish what you… -
Re: 3ds Max - Morpher Modifier Issue
I work with morphs all day everyday here are some things that will help you out. Yep meshes must be identical, so the vert index table and the object pivots match. You must make copies in object mode not sub-object mode (vert, edge, poly, element). The reason for this is that morphs are relative to the objects pivot point.… -
Re: Modular roads with unique normal
The basic mechanics of that Witcher technique are really cool. I've used the same/similar approaches for various ID related things in a few games - the huge benefit is that it's not subject to filtering and compression artefacting in the same way that texture based masking is. There are some considerations though if you're… -
Re: Topoproject v0.1 Maxscript
rather than along the camera ray I should have said. gw.transPoint your verts worldspace coord to screenspace and do a mapScreenToWorldRay. make sure you've set the graphic windows transform to the identity. gw.setTransform(Matrix3 1) This should allow you to cast the vert onto the mesh from the perspective of the user.… -
Re: How many of you dev.
The term you're looking for is "full stack developer". Commonly used in web development, it describes someone who can fill every role on complex projects, often including graphics. Unfortunately, in searching for the term, you reversed it with its supercategory "developer" and then projected your misconception onto… -
Re: Borneo Level Uncharted 2 Modularity? Discuss
Defiantly not simple at all. It would also have to be something in your engine. Its not something someone could do say in UDK or Crysis unless its coded to work that way. From what I have been told no other studio uses anything similar to that. But will all benefits comes draw backs which this of course induces. But all… -
Re: Non-shiny materials are...difficult!
A shader is the piece of code that takes the texture inputs and interprets them for the renderer. It makes transformations to how light affects the surface of your geometry - decides reflections and such. They are updated once every frame (I think), so the node graph in UE4 is actually a shader editor, (not full fledged,… -
Re: From environment to technical artist?
I don't think you should get scared off by those Tech Artist interviews (which are awesome btw. thanks haiddasalami) since these people have been on the job as tech artists for a while. It's true that there is a lot to learn when you first get started but I think it gets easier as you move along, or at least you have a…
