Re: Medieval village UDK
this is looking nice. its about time i see someone use bump offset. i know that the number of operations might get up there, but have you tried to use it on your ground texture too? it might look good, and if you still can get a decent fps, then i would use it. otherwise, everything is look nice. i would however round out… -
Re: [UE4] Resident Evil 7 corridor WIP
If you are aiming to mimic a current gen workflow and potentially attract future employers in the game development industry I would recommend taking a second pass on your assets to further optimize the geometry. Judging from the high quality of your work I would expect you're aware of this, but it could be a missed… -
Re: [UDK] Asturia Environment
Okay so... finished the wall and added background and path.. I'm having some problems with the mipmapping or streaming in UDK. They look horrible from a distance and look good only from about a foot away! Changing the LODGroup to RenderTarget didn't work, setting Mip Gen settings to NoMipmaps or even turn Texture-Streaming… -
Re: Chromatic Abberation - Yay or nay?
as said befor its a nice effect and makes an image feell much more real if used very subtly....BUT it costs and if it costs people want to see its worth it... so it gets turned up... i think next gen alot of these effects will come into their own and make a very natural feeling images because we will be able to afford to… -
Re: ZBRush 4R4 Released!
I think that's great actually. I don't know what's with this obsession over details. It's almost as if someone can take the teapot out of Max, cover it in "next-gen" details, bake some maps, and he's awesome. I always thought the underlying work, the actual art, is way more important than the details that cover it. And in… -
Re: Modular building parts poly count ¿?
Unless you're developping for mobile or you have an extremely expansive environment around this I wouldn't worry too much about polycount in 2015. Check out some wireframe on some recent *console* games like the Order 1886 for instance. Or Assassin Creed. Console are pieces of equipment that are obsolete on the day they… -
Re: Character Rigging Industry Entrrance Standard?
You will want to have a good demo reel and some rigs for people to look at, expect to be able to rig anything from a person, horse, or squid, to a helicopter, machine with pistons, or functing tank treads. You have to be able to provide any tool an animator would want or need. For next gen games, muscle and cloth rigging… -
Re: Retopology in Maya
@vargatom, that is very true, but I was assuming the discussion was about retopology for current gen realtime models, and not for very highly detailed pre-rendered CG movies. Even so, when looking at the meshes used in higher quality CG movies I find it quite a bit difficult to believe an external program like TopoGun and… -
Re: Ideas for research module?
realtime hair, cloth and fluid dynamics for proper vfx (explosions, smoke etc) would be interesting stuff. we see a lot of tech demos etc, but to actually implement a lot of that in a useful way in a real project with tons of characters on screen is usually a no no on current gen consoles. but again, to do this stuff you… -
Re: Ninja Theory's past struggles.
Sounds like last years E3 gameplay footage of The Division, just replace all the conventional weaponry and enemies with monsters and magic. And this gameplay mechanic is not new, it's called Co-operative gameplay, 4 player coop, it's dime a dozen now, and it's old, it's just recently made a resurgence. Just how "Next Gen"…
