Making game art isn't moving boxes or sewing blue jeans. There is some 3d asset making or coding that can be replicated anywhere, but the truly skilled have always risen to the top in all economic models in all times. Even during feudalism and the middle ages the masters were able to secure employment for their art. Will…
- That solid black line just divides the space for me, I'd maybe think about removing it, and doing something different. Not that you have to replicate it, but the black/white checker floor tile is definitely charming/classic diner. So maybe removing it from your counter base, and putting it on the floor instead could…
This is showing some potential to be pretty cool man. I do however feel you may be missing the point of making modular assets. While it is important for things to be able to snap together when placing them in the editor, you need to create pieces that are interchangeable and can be combined with other pieces to create new…
What you should do in this case is duplicate the objects in your 3D app, and save them into the FBX files where appropriate. If you keep your file / object structure the same in your 3D app, it will make managing and reloading the files a lot easier. When you load a FBX file it comes in as a "File Reference" object - this…
So you have a tree full of planes and you want to replace the planes with other planes? I'm guessing because the original planes where not UV mapped and you want to unwrap new planes and replace the old? If that's the case, you could probably unwrap the planes with the "UVW Map" modifier (not the same as UVW Unwrap) and…
From what i remember this is exactly how project Spark was supposed to work like. say you build a tower, and sell it or put it our for free, someone picks that tower and makes a towerdefense game and sells it. You will get a share. Obviously the shares will get smaller and smaller the deeper mods are integrated into other…
Media player seems to being replaced with a new app "movies & TV" and Xbox Music which it seems to try to set as your default player. I don't use them, I use potplayer and media monkey like always for now anyway. "Fresh Paint" replaces Paint as Microsofts go to painting program, which is also an app store app. In fact the…
I've been taking a hard look at my own portfolio lately - it's tough to look at your work and decide that a bunch of it 'has to go', and I can say from experience that you've already fought half the battle by making the decision to change! You're more experienced than I am, so feel free to take what I say with a grain of…
Hey guys! So this week I set up a master material, continued to go through and replace simple blocks with simple models. This has helped me really try to envision my scene. I have also continued to mess with the lighting and applied some basic colors to help set the mood. I realized while I was going through this week…
solid direction, trust in artists from up top, sure. that may happen, like when you have an experienced team that has delivered before or you're on sequel #3 and there are no surprises anymore. either that or when you work for people who don't really put a lot of emphasis on characters (which probably means the publisher…
