The thread here on our own forums already has some good discussion going so join… -
Spec-Ops Helmet [Detail Study] (Image Heavy)
Hey, back with another project. This time I decided to switch things up a bit and share my process along the way. I'm doing the Fast Ballistic MT helmet by OpsCore. I want to add tons of details and attachments & the goal is to be as accurate as possible. I already started with the Helmet and the shroud & put the HP in… -
Multipart Obj=memory heavy w textures?
So I've been modeling a simple robot. It's composed of about 50 pieces total. When I apply a material (blinn in this case) and attach the channels to texures I have created ( 2048 )... the amount of memory used by Maya skyrockets. These are small textures, about 1mb each, and I'm using only four of them. Maya goes from… -

Re: Course Character: Hatsune Miku - The World is Mine Version.
Hey guys thanks so much again for all the nice comments! Jackablade, Striker, Saman: Okay okay! You guys convinced me, after talking a bit with the awesome Andy Hickenbottom I'm going to take a shot at a 3d eye. It's definitely not going to be the traditional spherical 'eyeball in a socket' approach though - but more of a… -
Re: Game Engine Opinions
my thoughts on game engines from my own experience trying to mod them: Doom3: runs poorly without a highend graphics card if you want it to look half decent. lagged up on my computer when more than 2 enemies were present even on lower settings. code: easy to code for, stuff like weapons have all the code you need in one… -
Unreal Engine 5: Lighting Study || Far City
Hey everyone! I started a Lighting Study in Unreal Engine 5 using Lumen but then decided to polish it over the weekend. The focus was to create a cinematic scene in Unreal 5 that's completely Realtime and not have to worry about modeling or texturing. I did however adjust almost all the materials and create new… -
Re: How-to bake Transparency Effect in to Diffuse map
You can't replicate the gumballs in a standard shader. You would need a complex custom shader, with fancy parallax, and that's usually more expensive to render in realtime than simply using geometry balls inside a transparent cylinder. Quick test in 3ds Max with two cylinders, and a free texture off the web. There's no… -
Re: [WIP] Kinda Cyberpunk Foodtruck
Thank you @teodar23 I'll look into that once I'll get to Unreal Engine step ! Here is an uptade to show you the ( I think ) final design. I still have to learn Toolbag and Unreal to get a profesionnal presentation of the work ! For now, pics of the model rendered in Eevee, since it is realtime I think that gives you a good… -
Re: Is a high poly Model Needed for Realistic PBR Game Assets?
Assume we're talking about viewmodels (weapons). If your game has a significant triangle margin for viewmodels then you may not need a highpoly. Smooth edges can be approximated with support loops. Some engines even support realtime subdivision, which reduces the need for baking because the game model itself can be a…
