@jenast_ Wow, thank you very much! I used 3D Coat to do all of the sculpting. For the flowers and foliage specifically, I used voxel mode along with alphas I made for a little shrub and a little flower. I started a new layer and just started stamping greenery all over the surface of the book cover until it was built up…
You'd need the setup Epic has there behind each of your Layers in the landscape material, however you are already at your max tex sample count... What I tend to do instead of Epics setup is to use Pixeldepth to increase the texture size in the distance, that also removes tiling and does not require additional textures. It…
Ah sorry, I should clarify: This bake is actually a shadow map, I want to layer it on top of the base texture to hard-bake shading on the asset. The issue I'm having is that I can't layer on the bake (which has been rendered in Max with the aim of shading the asset so that the scene appears to be realistically lit when I…
You spend $300 on the intial release of the console. Another $200 2 years later because the equipment wears out. $500. Then there is the $10 addition tacked on because of licensing fees. With many times the inability to play games from older systems. Are PCs more expensive? Yes. Is there more of a learning curve? Yes. On…
Really cool! No idea what reference looks like or how much you have to stick to it, but I really like the warped colors on that heat shield piece. For something really interesting, you may look at how stainless steel changes colors due to heat. I've got a stainless steel stovepipe on a wood stove that has some really…
I'd like to think I'm building the Srooge McDuck Moneybin for the little people. I'll charge £4 entrance fees to see the moneybin. Have tours of the moneybin where you can find out how it was made, how much money is in it, and how the protective death lasers keep the poor at bay. Then I'll have a little shop on the side…
Doing an lowpoly assignment in school with specific requirements: Max 500 tris with a diffuse texture at 128px. My concept is a main character for a handheld console of sorts. Its an ostrich that shoots Laser from its eyes! He is mad tired of all the other birds flying around, mocking him for his useless wings, so he…
Hey man, thanks. I got 48.6k tris. I based my polycount in a sledge hammer artist's work here: https://www.artstation.com/artwork/zDJwZ He had 35.6k tris which I achieved. I couldn't resist the bipod and laser additions though ;) That took another 13k from my pocket... I have some renders of a second prop included in my…
Wow super quick turnaround EVIL! This looks so crisp, and polished already. It's got minor textural details and its super clean so no clarity issues what so ever except the inner shadows. Great job on the light beams and cast shadows. I like the mixture of culture showing this place has some history to it. No way that the…
Heyo. I'd like to test new MP's update. Here is the answers: 1. 4 weapons is: Rocket, Nucleus, Laser, Arrow. 2. ManiaPlanet is development by NADEO (but NADEO was taken by Ubisoft in 2009 year). 3. I heard the first NADEO's game was Virtual Skipper, but I think you wanted to know what was created in ManiaPlanet before TM…
