Re: [UDK] Island Beach Environment
Thanks for the links but i've checked the wiki several times and google too, there are some nice tutorials out there but not a lot regarding Mudbox. What i would really like to know is how to Sculpt a Normal map for a 1024x1024 Diffuse so that the cracks and bumps in the sculpt will match the ones in the diffuse, (i'm not… -
Re: Basement hall [WIP]
Cheap & fun: Replace the tiling walls with some modular meshes (assuming they aren't. Even better if they already are). Now take some random bricks and give them actual geometry, bumping them outward a bit. Bonus points if you do this in and around where your pipes are resting on the wall. The extruded geometry will cast… -
Re: Storage Room/Basement Scene
Thanks for the feedback, and yeah definitely gonna work on those lights Here's the flats for the things. In my scene they're 2kX1k probably overkill but whatever, its a portfolio piece not a console game, scaled them down here. As far as process or how I made them, nothing special really, just piling on photo source… -
Re: DFAO Specular Occlusion - Alireza's Art Blog
Tip 10 - Mask Modifier. It's been a while I've been building a whole library of modular functions that I can plug and play in every material. My initial goal was to save a bunch of time every time I move to work on a new project and I feel like I've achieved it. Once starting a new project, all I'd need to do is to copy my… -
Re: Plea to Environment Modellers
start small. find some cool little concepts for a modular wall panel or prop or something and start with that. also, dont fixate on coming up with ideas yourself, there are people who are constantly doing up wicked object/environment concepts and most will be more than happy to let you use them. its all about getting in… -

You want to make mechanical modeling ? get some cool concepts and… -
Re: Job Experiance
In my opinion, art tests are more to check if the artist can deliver on something that is not currently shown in abundance on their portfolio. Like an art style you cant see they master on their site etc. I completely agree with Varga. I am lead env on a aaa console title atm, and one of the problems we face with delivered… -
Re: GameDevTweet - a dev twitter page
I've amended my original post to reflect the new URL (which is now hosted on the podcast site to make use of the advantages of wordpress optimisation plugins), and to better explain what we still need and are trying to accomplish. @Xoliul: You're absolutely right - I also never intended this to just be a twitter page,… -
Re: Shipwreck
You can use modularity, but only for some of the smaller pieces - portholes, railings, cleats. You could conserve texture space by modeling individual planks, but this could easily use up your polygon budget. Railings of that sort would be extremely unlikely on a wooden ship. Most would have a solid, waist-high rail. The… -
Re: Need a little advice...
pilang: That was my original thought process. I'm not thinking of spamming the company if I'm not able to land a position, though. rick: Wow, that's probably one of the best over-all critiques I've gotten on my 'folio. I really appreciate it. I've decided to not let this opportunity pass...since, well you never know,…
