Re: [Xnormal] normal map issue
It was actually turned off when I did the test first and it got mostly cleared up. I still had a tiny strip of the artifact turning up, but it almost cleared all of it. I noticed later that it also had been off when I was trying to tweak the cage from within the 3D viewer. So that's why that didn't do much to help me out.… -
Re: She Hulk
Pretty good Marilyn Manson, but not so much She Hulk. Lighting is playing some tricks here (mainly it's killing the face). It's off balancing the character by one half being bright, the other half being dark while the background is a bright white gradient. A tad painful on the eyes. Speaking of balance, muscular… -
Re: TSM's models
Metal on the axes looks like granite instead of steel or iron. Normal maps on the handles look off to me too, more often than not the handles on these things were polished smooth enough so they shined. A crazybump filter on the wood texture just doesn't cut it for this aplication, you would be better off without the normal… -
Re: minimal scene in max, very low FPS
Sometimes its the calculation for the shading that causes some slow down. To check and see, highlight everything, right click go to object properties, and next to vertex color turn off "shaded". It will look the same as turning on 100% self Illum, but will drop some of the calculations. It really doesn't do much to improve… -
Re: Any comp-modders / electricians out there care to help?
oh yeah, hook your DC adapter up to a multimeter first, I have one rated for 7v that gives off something like 14v and a 12v that's only outputting 5v - basically the manufacturing quality is shit on most of 'em. Granted, these are from my big box of wall-warts that I've saved from old broken routers and switches. oh yeah,… -
Re: My first Knife
Well first off all, you say you want to "make it lifelike as possible". So is this supposed to be a lowpoly asset or a cinematic prop? If you are planning on making a photorealistic render you should have a lot more edges to round off the curved areas on the knife blade and the handle. If it's supposed to be a… -
Re: Pierce Brosnan - "Goodbye 007"
frankly most people i know from england don't really give a rats about scotland or wales and don't even tend rto think about em much. and as for northern ireland, the ost we used to think of them was 'oh shit, another IRA bomb' so meh. me thinks ror's one of those militant types who be pissed off at someone no matter where… -
Re: stripped down portfolio update
good stuff pior, i think the only thing i can say right off is that you should ditch the dragon as the first image. not that you shouldn't keep the cute little guy in the flipbook, but i just don't think it's the most representative piece to start off on. it's a "you" piece, it's just older. us at polycount can… -
Re: Sketchbook:marlfox8
Remember, if you are creating a base sketch for something that you want to make, you do not make it in dark. Secondly Yes the anatomy is off and I see a very little progress from your posted sketches. I usually watch the speed drawings or digital sketches to get inspired and see how they did it. I was able to make sketch… -
Re: Nintendo Wii
I'm looking forward to Wing Island coming out next month. I like the style and it will be the first flight game I play using the Wii-Mote. Project H.A.M.M.E.R. looks like fun, but the jury is still out till I can see/play more of it. Battalion Wars2 could be fun but its a long way off and hopefully they cleaned up and…
