Re: Manitoba crash site - UDK env
sorry not coloured spec... if you lerp between the diffuse and the spec/reflection with fresnel it gives you a much more metal like material... dont add it blend it basically kind of going on the basis that reflection is focused light bounce...the more a material is focused the less un-focused bounce light there is...this… -
Re: THRONE ROOM Seomra na Heolaíochta d3fstyle
Hi there! I bring some updates. I've asked for Substance license but it told me it's invalid, so I remain with UE4's material editor which is awesome as well (and I don't have time to learn substance, sorry about that). Finally, for ceiling I decided to make something simple and horizontal, with a basic dome for throne's… -
Re: [MAXScript] View Stats
The trouble is I don't have max 2009 to test it on, nitrous handles things differently so things like this one are not apparent. Let's see, IIRC you can use gw.clearScreen for that (should be a better idea than redrawing views and trigger redrawViewsCallback again) though that one works kinda weird in nitrous. If you put… -
Re: Bionic Character Bust
fantastic work. only crit is that his cloth are all grey (which makes them a bit boring). I think you should add some color to it, maybe make the shirt slightly red (no extremes, it can still be quite desaturated so that the face is still in focus. and the other thing is a personal opinion: I find the iro mistimed.… -
Re: What do you think of game animations like this?
IK in various degrees and State trees are pretty standard now. Unity had Mechanim since version 4.2 IIRC; Unreal before that. Leave it to Square Enix to apply it to everything though lol with the bowl of soup. Really impressive tech overall. Search Bungie and Ubisoft Run Time Rig online Mocap? yeah, hate it or love it,… -
Re: Level of Detail - what methods to use
Max has a utility built-in for viewing the LODs as you edit them, switching the meshes as you move the camera in/out. There are also some scripts on scriptspot that do a better job, IIRC. The basic methodology is to start with the highest-res mesh, and remove every other edge loop, then fix up stretched UVs. You'll need to… -
Re: Animation cycles- work in progress-Critique needed
hi Keyflan, Thanks for posting and welcome to polycount! I think you need to work on timing, spacing, weight, solid arcs and posing I would suggest taking a step back and doing very small exercises to focus on each of the 12 principles. Maybe do a bouncing ball to get a feel for timing and spacing, the simpler the better.… -
Re: Da Dawg Bowl - New Generator Library Release for Substance Designer
First off, a teaser for my second article :wink: Currently finalizing the first (and hardest) of part of it. It's split into discussing the concepts behind capturing light values then processing with white balance, gamma, and tonemapping to produce a final image! In the meantime have a few oldies showing off my custom… -
Re: Looking for new IPS monitor
I have been using a Dell U2715H for a few months now. I love it. It's 1440p, IPS, 27 inches and 97% (iirc) sRGB accurate. it's beautiful, can't fault it. I have it mounted on an ergotron arm, which allows a massive amount of repositioning - really nice for changing how you work, or rotating to read stuff in portrait. These… -
Re: Sketchbook: Punkeltje
Hey, love the first one! You should try pushing her iris/pupil inside though, instead of sculpting ontop of the sphere and, hence, bringing it out more. Makes quite a different as it also introduces more accurate shading. Also, especially for "softer" subjects, you might bring down the shadow opacity, so you don't hide…
