Re: Baking normal to duplicated mesh with different UV
I guess what 2011 Polycount said is that you can't transfer normal maps like albedo maps. Normals map "colors" are coding for 3d directions and are dependent of the U direction of UV's to define their (tangent) space. If you rotate your UV's, all directions in your normal map have to be re-evaluated, hence the "colors"… -

Re: Portfolio Feedback - Environment Artist
Lots of good environment threads posted on polycount a simple search might help more while you wait. From what i see and have seen by clicking your link you might be correct in removing those items with the x over them. What you could do so that you can keep them (since you spent time on them) keep them for the future and… -
Re: Game Design or Game Artist
Hi there, you can find a bunch of useful information here: (polycount wiki) http://wiki.polycount.com/wiki/Game_Industry Sounds more like you want to be a 3d artist.

Re: My tiny Art Dump
Looking good, In contrast to what another polycounter said here: I think you should ultra-focus your time into improving your sculpting and modeling, don't try to texture yet, you're just going to waste time and they will look low-quality. The artistic skill you master after the intensive sculpting/modeling will help you… -
Re: Did you really think no one would notice?
Sadly but true, I once reported an artist stealing works from top-notch artists, that person got into trouble later. My previous 3D art teacher also got rob his artwork, but later he became an art lead, the "stealer" applied for a job there, he know who he was. It's really nice to have a very active community where people… -

Re: Quixel Suite - GDC 2015 goodies (to see, not touch)
Hi! I was talking to Teddy and asked him if there was anything we could show to the people of Polycount as a mini-update. So he suggested we showed one of the mini-environment packs (probably not the final name). There will be full sized environment packs with more stuff, but these small ones are kinda nifty, they are very… -
Re: Best way of modeling cutlines for baking?
There is a lot of reading you can find about this subject on the polycount wiki. I've read it all, but to be honest, much of it is still over my head. Like mentioned, how you approach this depends largely on the type of asset you are creating, but here is a small suggestion: Take that cylinder you have right there, make a…
