Re: Sculpting and Texturing pipeline for VFX and cinematic assets?
The VFX character pipeline is a lot more intensive than the game character pipeline. For the type of high-quality character you're talking about, involving close-ups, there would be a much bigger team and more steps. Although real-time tech has come a very long way in recent years there is still a big jump to VFX/Film… -
Re: Artstation and tits
I dont think anyone will be missing out on work, directors and leads know what they are looking for and will pick the person with the skills and experience they're looking for, vs. what is popular in the moment. That's definitely not what I was talking about, I was just talking about visibility. I also dont think anyone… -
Re: Overdraw
I'll get things started and hopefully others will chime in with how they've heard it used. I think its a term that gets used for a few things or it flat out gets misused... A bit like "skinning" some people use it to mean making 2D textures (drawing the skin) and other people use it to describe the weighting of verts… -
Re: Realistic Tropical Island - Aztlan -
I'm going to guess from my own limited experience that 1500 triangles is a bit on the high end for current gen foliage, but may not be so for whatever the next upcoming generation will be foliage. Triangle counts aren't too much of an issue if your talking about high end games. If we were talking about a Wii, DS, or iPhone… -

Re: Copyright, IP, and infringement. Oh my!
To talk about piracy and copyright is a huge stupidity and a huge waste of time, so i won't add much. As far as i know, Pirates will not understand the creator's position until they become a creator. So, to talk to a fucking pirate is like to break our heads on a wall, or worse, it's like to discuss with a monkey. Creators… -
Re: Getting a Job outside Australia
Hey Spiffy, I moved from Aus to Canada last year on a working visa, if a studio really want you to work wit hthem they will get it no problem. I then moved from Canada (not a fan of the area) to the UK on a visa which also didn't take long to get. There is another thread talking about how many years experience you need to… -
Re: face sculpt - crits are very welcome
Thanks for the honest feedback. Much appreciated! Some background info might be in order by now. The university I'm currently enrolled in has this line called; Multimedia Technology and Games. It's a line dedicated to studying (not develop) games, so they do not provide any teaching related to the field. Instead they are… -
Re: Game models, polygon count and other questions
1. On two mesh its two drawcall for materials as I know. 2. If we talking about real time rendering, then you cant really say "render time" because its real time.Then it must be rendered in a very little part of a second.So the "rendering time" isnt noticeable.But the three texture using mesh needs 3 drawcalls for its… -
Re: Realistic VLADOF assault rifle!
Check out the "Making me hard" and "understanding normals" thread in the tech talk section. They have oodles of info on baking, smoothing, uv's all that stuff. The basic rule of thumb is If there is a break in smoothing, you MUST split the uv's. Smoothing split, you MUST Split UV's. Say that a couple times a day for a few…
