Re: ShoeBox: 2d gamedev tools
Really loving the whole suite, it's such a great set of tools. I had a request concerning the sprite packer, though. I'm currently looking at using it to atlas 2d fx animations. These tend to have wildly different sizes per frame (think of a slash fx that starts as a dot, grows to a line, ends as a dot), so a regular… -

Thanks for the kind words everyone :) @Spoon: Good catch, that's an easy fix! Finished up another trimset tonight: -
Re: Animation rates?
Some good articles and resources here http://wiki.polycount.com/wiki/Freelance#Freelance_Rates I would advise you to decide on two rates, so you can present them as options. A day rate, and a piece rate. A big part of providing fee estimates to employers is knowing how much time it takes you to make things. To that end, it… -
Re: Quick Contracting Question - Regarding Overhead
Yes. If you're tracking your work properly, you'll get a handle on what it costs for you to do business. Software, hardware, training, etc. Plus how long it takes you to do things... it's smart to keep a timesheet, just for yourself. Rent, food, entertainment, etc., costs of living. All these should be factored into your… -
Re: [WIP] [UE4] Emerald Hills
Thank you :D It's honestly thanks to all the wonderful critique and advice I've gotten from this thread (as well as a little bit of self-education) I think I can call this project officially done though! I adjusted the lighting and redid the fence to look a bit more natural and inline with all the other palm trees. I… -
Re: Being a good lead
It seems the two roles are very blurred, depends on the existing company hierarchy, and the size of the teams. I think a lot of it you'll just have to flesh out on the job, once you learn the office personalities. I'd say communicate to them the importance of those main essentials... keeping things on-budget, keeping… -
3ds Max/Unity Normal Issue with Trim Texture | Probably Tangent Basis Problem
Hello, fellow Polycounters! until now I was usually able to fix my 3D issues by myself, but on this one, I did not found a satisfying solution. Warning: It's going to be a long post. To give you a little background: I am a student & environment artist and currently working on an environment for a VR game in Unity. My… -
[UE4] God of war FanArt
This was a project that I did after work time, everything was made by my hand, FX, decals, shaders, assets, textures... I divided the environment in two parts here in Artstation but it's the same scene, the outside has the textures painted on the landscape by height blend and triplanar which I implemented on the main… -
Re: WIP_Warehouse_UDK [ONE TEXTURE ENV]
I don't think the 1 texture approach is the best for this case. That stuff works better for trimsets and clean assets that rely more on normal map information than on diffuse. In this case your 1 texture is just a few cropped photo textures pasted together in the same sheet, there's no point in doing that for a whole… -
