Re: need some help with sprite eye / expression techniques
Multiple uv channels are also a hit, because they bloat the vertex size in memory. Plus depending on the renderer, each UV can cause a separate batch of vertices to be sent to the GPU. Having said that, it's still a common strategy to use 2 UVs, one for tiling, the other for lightmapping. Just avoid going crazy with UV… -
Re: Handpainted Shield (WoW Style)
Cool shield. There's not a lot of vertical topology at the moment. This may be frustrating when you try and put details into your sculpt. It's suggested you stick to quads, keeping them squared with an even density across the mesh. Throwing divisions at it will solve the problem on face value. However will present problems… -
Re: [UE4] Practise using UDK assets.
Wow, just noticed this. Your work looks amazing Nielsen! The first thing I've noticed that your work in comparison with the concept art lacks those hanging, vertical things from the trees. Also, the tree on the right side of the building could add a bit more to the entire look. Really awesome work! Keep it up -
Re: Polycount Community Chest Event
Looks pretty good. I think you missed a few stitches on the back green 'scarf' though. Also little bits on the inside of brown strip and maybe shading error there too. The diamonds on the back might look better with a 'cross highlight' instead of just vertical strip. Maybe add stiches to the green section on glove? -
Re: UDK July 2012 now supports XNormal normals!
So whats the deal with the one smoothing group requirement? Sure, it might down vertice cost, but won't it also introduce big gradients into your normal map and when coupled with comression, look possible worse in some areas? Can I still use smoothing splits in some areas and get the benifits of this new pipeline? -
Re: Steam-Punk Motorbike
Hey guys, I've modified the design, having difficulty thinking of a way of attaching the arm to the center of wheel. I like the wheel facing he new way though, you get to see more of it. I moved the springs to a more vertical position. It's getting a bit crowded on the other side for a two pronged swing arm maybe? -
Re: [Riot Art Contest] - L
Reply by heboltz3 · · Home› Contests & Challenges Archives› Riot Art Contest› Riot Art Contest - AnimationNice work so far! Everyone loves a divebomb. Only comment I can make is that from game-cam its tough to notice all the verticality that she gains. I think if you can push the poses to really make it super apparent that "I am going up" then I will have no complaints. Neat stuff! -
Re: Skin Wrap portion of SlideKnit pipeline issues
sorry i should have mentioned that for the purpose of showing each piece in the pictures i moved them away from each other, when I do the skin warp they are on top of each other. that being said, i did leave some vertical space between the two, ill see if that is messing things up? -
Re: 3DS Max - Move Along Normal
Hi, local mode switches to the average normal of continuos subobject selection, so for polygons it might be at first a bit counterintuitive. There is Normal constraint which always moves the subobjects along their own normals, you switch it on under Edit Geometry > Constraints > Normal. Extrude moves the polygon along the… -
Re: Critique my failed art test
thing that jumps out at me, is wondering why you didn't play with the uvs, straighten them out so the lines are vertical on the grip to help the aliasing, etc. the shape of the actual blade on the hi-poly looks a bit odd, a bit pillowy where it suddenly becomes the blade edge... overall, though, a good looking piece.
