Re: Artists/Animators turned Indie Game Designers - Who am I missing?
Thanks Xoliul. Though not sure i qualify as Kickball was such a small game haha :P. But yeah i did code it myself. Though i have a coder on the next project, i found learning to code has improved my design skills substantially, as well as understanding where i can cut corners in the art for the most impact. It was a really… -
Re: Windows 8
Contrary to much of the naysaying I'm looking forward to W8. A new UI designed from scratch that's fully hardware accelerated and doesn't require developers write code to refresh the window with as little flicker as possible in non-Aero mode. A move towards managed languages for cross compatability with Windows Phone and… -
Re: Processor for baking
I'd just like to make a distinction between multithreading and hyperthreading here. When programming, a thread is a seperate section of the same program running at the same time, so I might have four threads running the code that fills in a scanline for a renderer, each taking a scanline and filling it in until the frame… -
Re: Material Editor Questions!
keep in mind Custom node isn't a good idea for production use, it prevents code side optimization of the material down stream from the node. Having said that it's a great prototyping/own time tool :) -
Re: Texture as texture coordinates?
If you're talking about shader code (as opposed to Strumpy): half4 warp = tex2D(_WarpTexture, IN.uv_MainTex); //this is your warped texture samplewarp *= 0.1; //Multiply by 0.1half4 c = tex2D(_MainTex, IN.uv_MainTex + warp.rg); //"warp.rg" is the equivalent of your Channel Mask node //all it's doing here is taking your R &… -
Re: New bug in IE
Sorry, going to have to disagree with you here. If anyone is calling the shots and pulling the leashes on standards, it's Google. There's one person in the world that controls the direction of HTML5...ONE! That person is Ian Hickson, and guess who's payroll he's on? Google's. Anything that goes into the HTML5 standards has… -

Maya 2017Blend Shapes effects rig even when the blend shape node is underneath skin cluster (inputs)
Hi, I've been trying to fix this problem all morning, I seem to have an issue with my rigged female bust. When ever I make my blend shapes and move the blend shape slider. The mesh moves up (translate Y axis) I seriously do not know how to fix this, I've tried resetting transformations. I've also tried to put the blend… -
Re: ShaderFX "TraditionalGameSurfaceShader" into metallic workflow?
Practically speaking the only really good way to do this is to do it with custom code nodes. I ported the substance designer viewport shader to shader fx a couple of years ago and it was relatively straightforward once I stopped trying to do it purely with shader fx nodes -
Environment Art Grad Programs
Hello, everyone! I am a fine artist working in Brooklyn at a studio where we make sculpture out of Lego bricks. While I was incredibly lucky to score this job, it isn't what I want in a career. I have a BFA in sculpture but I work in my free time learning to make 3D assets using Maya, Substance and Unreal. I also know…
