I think the changes are improvements for getting the best items good ratings. There are flaws from watching the tf2 workshop imo though. 'top rated' for today is misleading. It counts up and down votes. So if something gets 300 down votes it could be 'most popular' for today. Which probably leads to more down votes. The…
Eric, Thanks for the feedback. I've gone through all the options I can think of. If I import that same obj back into Max I don't have a problem. I apply an Unwrap UVW to it and the UV's appear to be in 2 shells. When I import that same OBJ into zbrush or maya, they are not attached. Also, when I do a render to texture…
There's a new Nexus 10 coming, and the older ones are like 300$ average. Get that if you're worried about size and resolution, it's still way better than an iPad's resolution (2560x1600, 300ppi for the nexus 10 vs 2048x1536 264ppi for iPad 4 and 5). I think they'll announce the new one tomorrow, it might have an even…
I like where this is going. I've consolidated all of the suggested rules into a more easily digestible format for further discussion. Paraphrased for the sake of clarity. I also took some liberties with the proposed poly budgets because I'm slightly OCD: 1. Leave at least one critique per post. 2. Create your own textures.…
Looking forward to seeing the mocap, spent ages when i was at uni last year researching mocap so ill be following this thread =D. Im guessing your planning on making some props for the spear and shield as well. With the animations that are not run/idle, id make them as dynamic as possible, doing a simple lunge animation…
I'd send them an email polite but brief email saying who you are, the specific terms of the license agreement ( https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/ ), and advise them that they have broken that license agreement, strongly request they credit you for the model below anywhere it's used as soon as possible, and…

That's a hard goal. Doable of course, but hard. I started using Modo 302 and it took me months of casual learning with the aid of Dan Ablan's book and dvd plus some Luxology (at the time) training videos. It's only when I got a long term work contract where I forced myself to use Modo 401 did I "get it". Zbrush took me…
keep the technical specs, it only gets iffy when you describe what you felt while making it in 300 words or more, unless its a really artsy piece :) It helps get a good idea of efficiency when dealing with real time art, and shows you watch the technical specs. You could also put that info on the images themselves…
The big problem with scripting in Blender is that is uses Python. In itself, this isn't an issue. Python is a solid language now with plenty of features, and using it with Blender allows you to do almost anything. The problem is that a lot of people familiar with scripting langauges are not familiar with Python. And Python…
