Re: Mechanical SUB-D tips and tricks
Thanks for the tips guys! Next can you tell me the theory behind modeling a cube and making it next gen game ready? Floaty bits don't cut it for renders where the model cast shadows, as well the uv's are a mess with all these floaty bits over lapping in the uv space. I realize you are trying to represent with some game… -
Re: Help with texture painting.
If i am doing faces/hands etc I try to have minimal layers. when I happy with something I tend to flatten it. My workflow is basically airbrush the colour, then blend it. very similar to oil painting. If its next gen I have AO on the layer above, then paint the colour underneath. when I am happy with the painting I remove… -
Re: What console are you buying and for what game?
i'm into jap games mostly, so naturally the 360 seems rather unattractive to me. will probably get a 2nd gen PS3. wii - well, it's overpriced for what it can do imho and the typical nintendo stuff is of no interest to me. unless there's great 3rd party support this time around, i will not buy another dust collector (looks… -
Re: Modo201 painting and baking!
I'm not sure actually, haven't found a way after a quick go. I put in a request to be able to assign a different UV map to any of the images/layers. I'll post what i hear, maybe there's an easy way and i cant see the tree in the forest. Since most next gen engines, us included, use 2 UV maps for the reasons you just said,… -
Re: Sculpting Normals or Photosource them ?
Not disagreeing with you. From what i've seen how the albedo textures look it's probably just gonna be a case of running a couple more filters and adjustments to remove most of the lights and shadows. And you are probably right that some of it will remain. When the last gen of materials came around people said the same,… -
Re: How do they do the creases movement on games like Fifa?
Excellent explanation. I had assumed it to be simulation because I've been goofing around with the cloth in 3DS Max. And found how realistic the folds were with complex geometry. It was running in real-time. But your post made me realize that it's complicated. Also check out FIFA 14 on next-gen consoles. They seem to be… -
Re: Spell Slinger Chick
I love the modeling and texturing but having all these details baked to a normal map and not have a specular map seems like a waste, without a spec map none of the details will really show. I'd either go full next gen (you don't need to go overboard on the spec, but use it to define materials better) or just drop the… -
Re: [UE4] Office Interior
Wow, I really like this. Would this be playable on next gen console? As for critiques I think you should give the desk a bit more importance and tone down the saturation on the items on the desk so they blend a bit more in the picture. Maybe add a light on the right to simulate another lamp beside the shelf. Great work, I… -
Re: Environment / Hard Surf Portfolio UDK
theres nothing in your video that couldnt be shown as well or even better using pictures. Pictures are also a lot faster to view, which is very important. if you really must have a video, at least make the player larger. also you might want to put low poly or mobile somewhere, because i found your current title pretty… -
Re: Eomer - realtime character(sort of)
I don't think it's that noticeable tbh, just me really nit picking. Out of interest would 170k tris, and that amount of texture resolution be around the norm for a realtime character nowadays? I only ask since you said it's "sort of" realtime. I'm pretty out of the loop as far as workflow goes, but I'm going to have a go…
