Re: [Game Art] Modular Kits related Issues
So the wood panel is something you want to sculpt (not the rest of the wall).You want to sculpt the bent corner with some detail and probably some other surface detail into the panel. but not have the ends be affected by either dynamesh or subdiv shrinking, you want the final geometry to be clean so it snaps up in engine.… -
Re: What would you tell your younger self that would shave off the time you took to learn 3d?
- start small and fail FAST! it's hard to learn something when your project is huge. that's why I make simple props i can do in a weekend when i want to learn something. - you DON'T need to be perfect, just 'good enough'. Polycount is great and horrible at the same time. you can learn a ton but you can also seriously… -

Re: how to use displacement for bricks
I forget what Unreal's implementation does but in principle the mesh only "needs" to split where you have hard edges - obviously UV seams will cause discontinuities as well. if you were to soften all the edges on the original model it would probably do roughly what you want. it might look a bit weird in places. In most…
