Re: Why does my stuff look so bad?
You are comparing two images textures and asking why A is different to B, but you are missing an important part of the puzzle - the lighting and rendering setup. That is going to make the biggest difference. I think the textures in the original image are probably good enough to work with. I'd spend some time learning about… -
Re: How do i unwrap this?
There are a ton of techniques that can be applied to a bunch of different scenarios with varying degrees of success. How you deploy those solutions is really depends on the situation. When you hit that stuff you'll probably want to do what you did and make a post =) I mostly use 4 main techniques and they're pretty fast.… -
Re: M82a1 Sniper rifle
It looks like you're stacking your UVs in the 0,1 area - this can cause baking errors. It's better to put all of the duplicates outside of the 0,1 area. In 3ds Max you can select the shell, hit the 'absolute transform' button in the bottom left of the unwrap (looks kind of like [+] ) and then type "1" into the U or V text… -
Re: [UDK] Hand Painted - Haunted Pumpkin Yard
So I got the mini-farm area to 80% done, it needs little pieces of grass and vegetation alphas in it, and along the border to connect it to the grass texture as well. Also started re-doing the trees and I'm having trouble for some reason. I started with an outline of my bark shapes and when I went to color/shade, it was… -
Re: You know its cold when....
I find it odd people are picking and choosing who they want to hate on when it comes to making profits. http://cleantechnica.com/2008/07/30/largest-cleantech-industry-is%E2%80%A6carbon-credits-at-63-billion/ Actually still listening to the program Vig. I'll probably watch it instead of just listening a second time later.… -
Re: [Portfolio] Darko Miladinovikj - Hard surface 3d artist
Thanks a bunch for the advice! Misc pic is intentionally contrasted, there wasn't anything better I can think of to make. Hopefully I'll come up with something better in the future when i have more content. I agree about the shotgun thing; I originally intended to preview in several shaders/programs but I ended up doing… -
Re: Ergonomics - Save your wrists
After watching this video a few months ago I bought one of those robot arm fat holders on there. Its pretty awesome. I highly recommend them. I had to saw a section out of my desk to get it in the right position but it was worth it.… -
Re: Ambitious Project? Who`s in?
This was the first map idea that came to my mind, where the white blob is neutral crystal mine, red is dire base blue radiant. (paint FTW :poly142: ) The dark gray lines are the routes for the carts, and the purple was the exit(maybe bigger than that/ or the cart railways can meet earlier and went through a tunnel/ narrow… -
Re: Staying Positive?
I became an electrician this year after ten years in the games industry. I had previously worked in electronics, so it wasn't a huge transition for me. The improvement to my lifestyle is so great that it is hard for me to put into words. Going from working 60+ hours a week (some years it was 80+) to an average of 40 will… -
Re: Russian WW2 SU122 tank
Hey man, looking good. You really kept in mind what I said, that's perfect. The big surfaces all look like they won't require a complex lowpoly but still keep a lot of detail in there. With "straps" I presume you mean the tracks? Tricount is one thing there, it's good that you can stay under it, but that doesn't happen a…
