Re: Game Specific Animation Techniques
Thanks guys! Slipsius - Yeah good call, I've heard AM is pretty intense. I think I'll wait until afterwards and see where I'm at, I guess as you say, my reel should show my animation skills regardless of the actual content. ThatAnimator - Yeah I'm thinking all the stuff I pick up in AM should be either directly applicable… -
Re: Amazing Tales!
Meet the Scheisswasser & Söhne U-Bot 7 Submerged Bipedal Weapon System, aka The Panzerwurst. Severely lacking agility on both land and in sea, this amphibious cast-iron guard dog represents the latest in obsolete military solutions. Guaranteed to sink like a stone or wander aimlessly around your docks firing resolutely in… -
Re: How goes the sculpting/modeling the characters for animation
Usually.... Edit the mocap clips on the low poly or proxy mesh. Final renders on the high, after all motions are approved and where displacements maps (and other maps that can slow realtime viewport playback) are usually used over normal maps for game trailer style movies since they do a better job showing silhouette… -
Re: UDK lightmap problem
Oh, tnx Santewi (and sorry for the late reply). I have another questions. With rasing lightmap res up to 1024, in viewport, i bake lighting, and everything looked cool and all, but the problem was, when i pressed the "play in viewport" button and the game runs (in viewport; you can walk around and stuff), i get some… -
Re: Ravaged Vehicle (new vehicle sample)
Thanks guys, okay here is some breakdown stuff. Keep in mind this thing is kinda old and so there are some things about the modeling/texturing I wouldn't have done today. Plus I only had a day or two to texture this thing, and the modeling was rushed but here goes! [Wire on lp mesh;] [base color] [AO+Directional + subtle… -
Re: Old Fishing Bait Shop
Yeah, lightmass can kill shadows, make sure you take down your global lighting and bump up your directional lights to compensate for additional bounced lighting. There are a few settings you can check. Under lightmass within your directional light properties, adjust some of the shadow settings, i think these are adjustable… -
Re: The wrong advices
"Everybody are using Maya, Nuke, Linux and Macs" - said a person that barely left company that was based from top to bottom on Windows and 3dsmax in a country where 3dsmax is everywhere. Now when you look at job offers in this person country, 50% are for realtime, another 50% for motion graphics and architectual… -
Re: Beginner Workflow and other questions
If you've been modelling sets until now, you might want to spend a couple of weeks getting into rigging and skinning for animation. Knowing the basics of that stuff will completely illuminate what a low poly character should look like for animation. But I'm guessing what you're really asking is for information about… -
Re: Optimization for VR PC project tips?
Material performance normally depends on the complexity of the math involved, amount of texture lookups, and screen space covered by the given material. Materials that uses a lot of texture samples are slow. Looping materials (parallax, noise, etc) are slow. Realtime noise is extremely slow, especially multi layer ones.… -
Re: Maya HLSL Shader - lcNextGenShader.fx
wretchedgoat - you need to be in Shaded AND Textured mode for the maya viewport even if you are not using any textures, otherwise your model will just show up as green. If you switch to 'High Quality Mode' the shader will also not show up. No, you dont have to have any of the slots filled in, that is one thing i dont like…
