Re: New artist highlighted every day
whoops - in a mini-rant about people misusing the term "graphic novel" he also missed the fact that loads of the tintin books were really collections of strips that were published first in newspaper supplements and then a magazine, the story evolving week after week. You can usually spot the cliffhanger and mad plot… -
Re: Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
It seem that this like starwars and LOTR all suffer in the later installments from not giving the characters any character, the little funny quirks like strange sweets and mad robots get left out and they spend too much time just following the plot instead of making a fun atmosphere. Oh well i really enjoyed it anyway. tpe -
Re: Asteroids-THE MOVIE
Mortal kombat(no story until the movie), Street fighter(no story until the movie), and most all 80's games turned into movies saw to that sort of logic's death. The new logic is well if people like playing X then they would love to watch a movie of it! "But sir there isn't even a plot!" "That's the beauty of it, we get to… -
Re: Smallville Thread!!!
watched one recently (may have been old) where some woman is eternally young from sucking souls from students. The whole ep was extremely by-the-numbers almost to a comical level.. oh she's got the principal.. stall.. stall.. must leave space for clark to come to the rescue. full of plot holes and thouroughly boring even… -
Re: Artists who left a comfortable position to pursue something ‘bigger’, was the grass greener?
No worries! I was contacted by a recruiter for my current company over LinkedIn, so I was not actively seeking new work at the time. In that sense, it was not challenging at all. I am still doing real-time 3d, just not for games. So while my specialty was weapons, I have plenty of experience to pivot to general asset work.… -
Re: Making 3DSMAX Movement behave like UE4?
In the end you can move the object by selecting local axis and move it to specified distance. But if we start talking about trigonometry, if you rotate an object lets say 15degrees and move it 10cm in the local direction, it wil automatically wont be able to snap to the grid, it will be off in every axis. So if you want… -
Re: ZBrush 2018: An actual feature-filled update
Good update but a few features missing which I still think ZBrush REALLY needs - Brush setting which auto-masks by angle, The topology mask rarely works - Some way to set the pivot to a vert (rn the only thing you can do is hide all but one triangle of your mesh and centre it) - Transpose Master (For rigging) could use… -
Re: University Assignment - Motion Capture
If you're interested in rigging you should probably self-educate yourself a bit and create a rig from scratch, you will get a better understanding of it that way. If the class is only having you use the Biped in max, they probably aren't expecting too much in terms of complexity. You could just rig the clothing to the… -
Re: 3 Armed Sci Fi Character - University Project (WIP)
The facial hair has been done using fiber mesh and tool which is new to me, i am happy with the results and any advice on potential issues baking this amount of detail onto the normal maps would be a great help. The flow of the unwraps seem smooth and overall reasonably well spaced other than on difficult areas where this… -
Re: Instancing environment pieces with linked/additional objects.
I'm not a max user and don't really know the terminology, but you would want everything to be combined into one object. So you replace wall-plain, with wall-window or wall-door etc... Some people call these sets and after you develop the basics, you can go in and add more and more pieces, look up any of Joel Burgess's GDC…
