Volcano Prison
Hi Polycounters, I am part way through a new piece for my portfolio and need some advice from the community. My issue is that I cannot come up with a way to break up the modularity of the walls/cells. I do have some torches that need uv's and textures doing which will break it up a bit but I just wondered if anyone had any… -
Stylized winter city environment.
Hello everyone, i am trying my best to become a environment artist. Just finished modular environment in unreal engine. I would like to share result and some progress with you. That was my first attempt to make a modular environment. I screw up many times but still managed to finish it. Reference gathering: I used both… -
WIP - Pat Goodwin - Environment
Hello friends, I'm a huge fan of Michael's brushes -- the lifetime membership is the best deal in 3D -- and immensely excited about this contest. The environment description immediately called to mind two of my greatest personal inspirations Lebbeus Woods (weirdo architect who never really built anything) and Viktor… -
Re: Guides On Creating 3D Game Environtments
The tray approach is a good one. Many call this "modular". The cliff on the left could be done many ways. The easiest is probably to model it into the modular segment, use multi-texture to blend between grass and stone, and flesh it out with grass & flower detail meshes. http://wiki.polycount.net/CategoryEnvironmentTerrain… -
Re: So we're making a game...
Research! If you don't know what modular assets are your screwed! basically imagine a building made up of several pieces; maybe a balcony, maybe a particular brick wall or a chimney... if you make them "modular" this means in parts that can be used over and over to create several buildings that although look different… -
Re: Tre's 3D Art N' Stuff
Using the same texture on multiple models isn't being modular. It's a good practice and saves texture memory, but it's not modular. Also as Cholden said, your wooden board shouldn't be diagonally positioned on the UV. That's a huge waste of space. Instead you should make it horizontal/vertical and then add more plank… -
Re: Question regarding tiling textures/texel density
So if I have a modular asset thats 2x2 meters, and my texel density is 512 per meter, I should use a 1024 texture map on that modular asset? Should I basically know the size of each of my assets to determine what size texture map I should be using? For example, if I have a bicycle, should I roughly measure the size of the… -
Re: [UDK] Dwarf Hallway
Thanks Jonas, yes i will be creating a modular set. I will have to try out your idea of referencing the models to create the scene. At the moment they are just copies. I have started to model modular assets and placing them together for an idea of the scene. Asset List: Floor Pillar Top Pillar Bottom Pillar Middle 1 Pillar… -
Re: CryArtTest - ConorW
Hey I'm finally able to start working on this again. I want to finish and submit it as soon as possible. This is the updated cab: and now I'm trying to make a modular building... something I've never done before. Can someone help steer me in the right direction? Here's what I got so far: the geo on the left are different… -
Re: Thoughts on MODO Steam Edition?
Yeah. Literally only sounds good for modelling and texturing dota items. Even if it were more expensive I'd be all over a modo edition with just model/uv (and maybe some sculpt stuff) with no script or export restrictions/limitations. Or maybe in the future programs could be made in a modular format where you pay for the…
