Re: Popularity of Game Engines: What happened to CryEngine?
Star Citizen is using the Cryengine, it's not part of crytek, and they modified it heavily to have any good outcome from it. Cryengine was my feature engine for many years and for my portfolio, but i feel it limits artists, it's super complicated to get characters in and setup properly, a game I worked on at a previous… -
Re: Please advise - Hight poly uv stretching
You've got a great start to this project, I've got some ideas that might be worth trying out. The Cliffs: Couple things here. First, I've found that obj files handle well in scaling from low to high poly, I'm not sure about fbx models. It may be worth a shot to run some tests and see if the obj handles a little better.… -
Re: Tree lighting and Normals problems in UE4
Hey thanks for all your help! Really think I'm getting somewhere now. I've found a couple of good lighting settings in speedtree and messed with the shader a bit. I would still like to steal the normals from a half sphere but that can't be done in speedtree. Basically speedtree pushes the normals out from the parent, in… -
Re: Autodesk re-structuring and slashing 1,200 jobs
@radianceofOrge @Grimwolf @Bellsey Haha, there might have been some confusion. I'm not teaching college. This is elementary - high school after school stuff (And a lot of the decisions are made due to cost). Yea I don't know of any colleges teaching Blender right now. What I do see are people picking up Blender on their… -
Re: Sketchbook: wasabimilkshake
The skyscraper I've been working on is yet unfinished, but I used some of the finished pieces of it to construct another building, just to see how versatile they are. I think it's turning out decently, but I'm regretting that I chose to make an exterior environment. I have to have something as presentable as possible in… -
Re: [UE4] Sarebo Island - FYP Environment Art Dump!
Hey Paul, Just wanna start off by saying bravo on clearing such a massive workload in such a short amount of time... being an artist currently based in Hong Kong, I know a thing or two about building a batch load of assets against the clock... So mad respect for the effort you've grinded through. As for critique now, I'd… -

Re: TSM's models
First off, anyone who has been on this forum for more than 20 seconds know that if you are looking for candies and cream and sugar on top of your crits, head on over to 3dbuzz.com, because polycount aint it. Do you think your boss at a game studio is going to sit you in a corner office and ask you what you would like to… -
Re: Dear Polycount, roast my env art portfolio please!
I've been summoned! I highly recommend Clinton Crumpler's UE4 Modular Environments course at CGMA. 10 weeks, $1,000 USD. I just wrapped up my scene the other day and I don't think I could've done it to that quality without his course but there is no hand holding. He's a great teacher and you'll be working alongside others,… -
Re: [WIP] Handpainted Street UDK
Scene is coming along great. I like the over all style and colour. The lighting is nice. I feel like your textures look a little flat even though they have normals, especially the floor and wall textures. If possible maybe crank up the normals a bit to see if you can get some more depth or if you have time try to paint…
