Re: Maya - Shape Question
I made you a video, it's faster to explain, taking in consideration that you know at least the basic of Maya: [ame] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rz6DTLwFw44[/ame] I used Bazier Curves to do that, since I usually use them I find that I can control better the result. To snap to the grid you have to press X and hold it… -
Re: Transistion Mudbox to zBrush. How to make things more easy?
And is this a bad thing? There´s quite a lot of things i dislike about zBrush. Starting with its Navigation and UI. As i said, i have no problems "learning" a new program, i´ve did in the past several times. I just dont get along with zBrush. Just as some people prefer Max over Maya or over Blender whatnot. I dont want to… -
Re: Diffuse won't work
The import format doesn't matter much. Most textures get DXT/S3TC (same thing) compressed. It goes like this: Input format -> convert to raw bitmap (pretty much TGA) -> generate mipmaps -> compress to DXT -> store in package I've been asked before if there's any way to enable/disable PSD layers, but the flattening stage… -
Re: [UDK] - Davy Jones´ Room
@LRoy, Underfox, Lloyd: Thanks for the support guys :) ! I haven't been updating in a while, the reason being the hand in for this project was last week and i've had to move to other projects. I do plan on working more on this one (its no where near finished) to get it to a decent level for my portfolio and hopefully use… -
Re: Vista prices posted at Amazon
Correct me if i'm wrong, but does'nt Apple charge per year? Also no one is holding a gun to your heads to upgrade. Multiple machine installs is technically illegal. Though online activation has been relaxed a bit. You can change everything except the motherboard, and even that can be changed with a phone call to MS for… -

Re: Nintendo Conference
He didn't say houshold lightbulb. He mentioned a mini-light. So like those mini lights that you have as a nightlight (yes, you) or ones that you string around a christmas tree. That's at least 50% less power consumption than a household lightbulb. 'Design was optimized with state-of-the-art processing technologies that… -
Re: Project mapping issues in 3dmax
I would rotate the handle pieces so the grip lines go straight across, that will cut down on the anti-aliasing causing a the choppy shadows. But thats the least of your problems I take it =/ it looks like your normal map setting should be in order now, lets check your render settings. If you are using default scanline… -
Re: Render to texture, using alpha on source objects?
Yep, I ended up doing the same as what Rob described. Set up lights to fake normalmap lighting (use a grey material on your "normals" with the opacity enabled) and render it out from a fixed camera (obviously you might have to be careful about measurements/alignments). I made the color/normal match up by having two… -
Re: How do YOU focus?
You know, sometimes I have such a hard time getting motivated to create or write anything. Sometimes it is other things in my life that are bothering me, sometimes it is work related stress or troubles. If I am ever working at home and having trouble concentrating I usually go take a nice, long, hot shower and visualize…
