Triangulate BEFORE you bake and export that exact triangulated model to your engine of choice. When you get "x" shaped shading errors, that usually means the program you baked in auto-triangulated the quads differently then the engine in which you displayed it. Making the normals throw up on each other. Those issues in…
Loads of Chocolate. I cant stop and I dont want to stop. It helps me focus when im working. My teeth are near destroyed because of it though. Coffee: I also cant stop drinking it but I want to. My grandma makes it so damn good and shes always offering me a cup so I accept it and end up drinking more and more over the next…
Hi cookedpeanut! Those are screen captures from the viewport. I am thinking of making some videos while modeling so people might see some things made directly in it once I get a huge chunk of free time. There are some videos on youtube that tackle some things about modeling in it. Personally I started with the help file…
I just heard about Yiynova this morning and also found the Ray Frenden review (He got me onto the 19" Monoprice tablet which is excellent), now I see this thread on Polycount. Looks like I'm saving for a Yiynova then. One question: Does anyone have any experience using a DVI/HDMI cable and VGA converter with their tablet?…
Hi there! Happy to see someone working on that concept, this guy does really cool stuff. Just couple of ideas of stuff to work on, The topology especially needs a whole lot of work. The topology should be used especially to keep the silhouette of the character. The shoulders area and hips-legs especially have a lot of…
Thanks everyone :) @ afisher : haha thanks dude. A time-lapse vid is pretty hard for me at the moment because I usually only have short periods of time to work on these, seriously like 15- 20 mins one day, then maybe an hour or two, then 10 mins it drives me nuts..... then there is the whole internet issue. I seriously…
I don't think you've analyzed well how the neons are working, they are usually lights hidden in a cavity behind the wall and only casting bounced lighting, not direct lighting like you have there, which gives that cozy look to the lounge (because the lighting is indirect, it makes the room more relaxing for the eyes and…
I don't have access to post a paint over on your geo, but your problems are stemming from some bad edge loops and triangles >:| Grrrrr HAHA Yes, found it. This is a good breakdown by Perna of how to quad your triangles. Doing this where the edge meet the flat surface on the top of the blade would allow you to get rid of…
My holidays are over soon as my last semester begins. I didn't really get far with this project during this holiday of mine. Partly because of taking time off to learn Zbrush and also to take time off work in general to actually relax and not be sitting behind my laptop. I still do plan to finish this project off. Will…
I think that's less "sexist" and more superficial assmunch, sef ;) <3 I'm on the eastside near TGZ, living in Microsoftville (Redmond) for about 2 years now. If you're looking for less stress and relaxation, eastside is great. Most everything you need is <10 min drive away here, so it's a nice area. Redmond itself is…
