Re: Decent hair tools for 3dsmax?
You can use the Script Advanced Painter, it has a Hair Painter tool in it, which admittedly is pretty poor and all since it's a bunch of planes and alphas, but using a Spline and one of the countless Tools which allow you to 'plant' stuff on the models (per vertice or poly, etc...) you can get something workable.… -
Re: Looking to buy an entry level DSLR, tips?
Necro! My girlfriend got herself a 550D while I was in San Francisco, and I've been playing with it over the past week. I'd like to get a couple of nice lenses soon, but for now the kit lens that came with it (EF 18-55mm f3.5-5.6 IS) is proving to be surprisingly effective. A bonus (arguable?) is that it has pretty nice… -
Re: [Game] Blood, Sweat, Gold -- modular character system + environment
Finished the chainmail outfit in 11 hours. I did use a purchased chainmail substance though, so that's a major cheat. Whenever possible, I am avoiding sculpting and baking, and doing the texturing as procedural as possible as this gives me the ability to make lots of variations quickly. For some outfits, typically lighter… -
Re: MAYA to MODO edge smoothing
Well there's also Collada though I haven't tried it yet... and since it's very similar to fbx I'm not sure if it would be any better. Modo's hard/soft edge support sucks since it's limited to the smoothing angle value of the material that's applied to the mesh. Or vertex normal maps which isn't really workable while… -
Re: opinions about the Cintiq?
I agree that having it on your lap isnt an option, but you can flatten it out to lie almost entirely horizontal, less than 10% incline. and honestly youd never need any more than that. The added advantage of the base is that you can spin it a full 180 degrees as you would do when youre working with a sketchbook. A tablet… -

[WIP] University Project - The TARDIS
Hey folks, Our assignment is to produce a polished piece of environment art based on a film, book, television program - basically any media which isn't a game. I'm not the greatest Doctor Who fan in the world, however I thought the current Doctor's TARDIS (Peter Capaldi) would be a fun challenge for me as I tend to drift… -

Re: Has anyone moved from a commercial modeling app to Blender?
Also, jsut found this about next release: ''This is a proposal for work focus on blender.org for the coming year. I’ve written this because we keep missing bigger development targets – we don’t have enough time for larger projects. Instead too much time goes to releases, bug fixing, reviews, maintenance and support topics.… -
Re: Will Photogrammetry cause lots of people to lose their job?
Yeah, that Activision article was an illuminating read and whether use of scanned data will impact to any significant affect upon jobs per se, is in my opinion yet to be quantified or envisioned for that matter.Though indeed very cool too wander around a hyper real environment as a player but if gameplay isn't of the same…
