Re: Remove this post
Yeah... True. One reason that could think of, is maybe if you have like a more complex door with many moving pieces and complex movement. In that case, youd highly reduce the amount of individual components needed in your blueprint by using a pre-combined and animated mesh. Probably its also easier to animate and handle… -
Re: What to do after college - going indie?
yea, getting some in studio experience would be good. You will probably get better time management skills as well as learn a ton of stuff that would be beneficial when doing your own thing. I learned more stuff as an artist once I was actually in the industry than I would ever have on my own. Its good to see how a larger… -
Re: UDK - Shadows - Dynamic
that almost looks like there's a light function in place (for the hatching). here comes a boatload of questions.. as ill try to test this myself. is this occurring on all lights? what sort of lights are you using? is it a dominant directional/point/spot? do you have more than one dominant light (if so thats bad juju)? is… -
Re: UT2004 WIP Vehicle/Mod : A load of balls.
Thanks guys! Yeah, the speedball is the final hurdle, we really need an expert on skeletal animation to work up some new poses for us, as we're still using the default driving animation, which doesn't work at all with the speedball. With the pole polys, is there a more efficient way to have them? Should I, for example,… -
Re: Painter Doodles
I guess I mean out of scale but I realize you might have wanted to give him a big head, It's just that his face is big and meaty but the body is skinny and sinewy almost skeletal. As I said maybe it's just me. That last one is good, I really like that blue. [edit] I meant the blue glow effect thing near his waist [/edit] -
Exporting Unreal Sketeal Mesh Socket to Max or Maya?
Hi guys so in this project I'm working on there's a Skeletal Mesh Socket that is offset from the hand. Anything like guns or objects get attached to this socket. The problem is I have to make some new hand animations and I'd like to be able to get the prop I'm working on attached to the player model in the same exact… -
Quake 4 info at E3?
Just wondering what information i've missed. How many players do they plan on having in game? Im hoping we can play with atleast 16. I also hope they have added some skeletal animation with IK based on hit points etc. That type of thing. Especially if that will make it possible to have the mouse control IK to point where… -
Dozer Pt2 bakes
Hey guys, DVD 2 of my Dozer is out, I'm dropping some superhighres screengrabs here to show my work. Untextured, since I'm only gonna be showing the texture when part 3 comes out (shouldn't be too long) It's 45k polygons, uses one 4096x2048 and a 1024 for the tracks. Baked in Max for future use in UDK as a skeletal mesh,… -
Importing blend shape animation into UDK from Maya via FBX
Hello World! I'm working on a project and I'm curious if it's possible to bring animated blend shapes in Maya into UDK in a similar fashion to skeletal animations or regular blend shapes. My first thought was a geometry cache but I'm not even sure if UDK will accept a geometry cache as animation data and I can't seem to… -
Re: Central character with more than 15k polys (without clothes...)
That really depends on the game. Characters in modern pc/console games are pretty high poly(they can be in the range of 100k or even more). Assume an open world game with a lot of npcs. Assume that they are all just 10k and have 50 of them in a town. Assume that they have blendshapes too which increases vertex count. Now…
