Re: [UE4] Skyrim: Riverwood Environment
I agree with the shading comment. For me the thing that stands out is that it doesn't feel like a lived in place. You should have a look at the villages in Witcher 3. They layer the thatch roofing and have tufts of grass and small plants sticking out around the pathways. You could also wobble the fence a bit and have a few… -
Re: Is my graphics card worth upgrading?
Also I'm just confused whether newer games like rage and witcher 2 really look that much better, or are just less efficient than unreal engine 3. The consoles have been running the same tech for the last 5 years, so why should anything for pc run any better or worse, year by year if it's also on consoles. -
Re: Do graphics actually hinder gameplay?
I think once you start highlighting characters red and blue to make them stand out you are doing something wrong. Unless.. that is what you choose as a style. Not every game has to be like that though. I understand it's something considered important for competitive multiplayer.. but that's about it. I've never had… -
Re: Insane deals at GOG.com right now
Gotmyself Witcher 2 for 4 Euro. Neat, so finally can figure out whats the deal with that one :) Some really nice games, eventhough already own a lot of them. Nice: a couple of games that are forbidden in germany like kingpin^^. Too bad they just have Aquanox and not a Windows working version of Schleichfahrt...one of the… -
Re: Is it wise to specialize in only one "field"? ( 3D Modelling)-(nub question)
I'm remembering all the games I used to play - Deus ex, starcraft, star wars nights of the old republic, morrowind, then the newer games of the witcher, deus ex, mass effect, etc etc....I don't play too many but these are all games where the environment really stood out for me and made the game extra awesome for me… -
Re: Help increasing contrast on landscape using the Layer Blend node
Modulation blending can help you add contrast, basically using a heightmap to blend textures together. http://wiki.polycount.com/wiki/MultiTexture I have some examples over here from when I was developing in Unity. https://polycount.com/discussion/160691/sketchbook-eric-chadwick/p1 You can also get really fancy with this… -
Panzer IV Ausf.G
So I decided to go ahead and join in on the eat3d hardsurface modeling challange... and why not! between this and Witcher 2 I have my hands full during the weekend. Anyhow here is an update, crits are more than welcome. Also, some of this is place holder crap, and all the nuts, bolts, and zbush work are coming up. But the… -
Re: [UDK] Sea Defenses
i would disagree on the saturation... i think youve nailed the look better than the witcher which is using the classic oversaturated reinhart tonemapped look, yours is more natural... on the wind front the land heats up first in the morning so the wind goes from sea to land... in the evening the land cools befor the sea… -
Re: [UE4] Hyperborea - Half-Life Fan Art
Thank you so much guys! Sorry for a 2 week delay. Witcher 3 pretty much destroyed my art sabbatical and life :D @Gannon Sure, updated the first post. I've added instances setup for sky and the ocean as these are pretty crucial. @nastobi123 I posted a link to hires so you can look up the setup below the picture. You can… -
Re: Fairy Castle
Lookin' pretty morrowindy to me, nice job so far! I'd recommend looking at images like the Skyrim dragonborn area/telvanni style, witcher 3, the Shadow of Mordor, etc for examples of how realism can be combined with this sort of stylized fantasy. It also might not hurt to draw inspiration from Blizzard's CGI movies since…
