Re: Time Vs Quality
[ QUOTE ] I always bother. To me, making clean models is not a trivial issue. I don't know exactly what you mean by snapping to a grid. Being a slave to a grid isn't necessarily important, but making sure that buildings and props are touching the ground are. Many times, you're not the only one who's ever going to touch a… -

Pros and cons for different ways to organize game character and associated skeletal mesh props
Looking for advice from anybody with more experience in games production. I am just getting familiar with animation ecosystem in unreal. I am making a third person shooter in which you use a bow as your only weapon. I am using the Paragon Sparrow character as a reference. My primary question is, I need for the bow to be… -
Re: Mechanic WIP
Really appreciate the comments guys thanks, and yes you are indeed correct, it does look like he shit his pants. The actual idea was for him to be wearing overalls and them rolled up at the waist, overalls usually sag a fair bit around the ass/crotch when they're like that. But I just ended up making it look like he is… -
Re: Environment WIP
Not a bad start. Couple things to think about Your building is a box. Sure, lots of real buildings are boxes, but having a boring profile means it'll be visually accepted as a boring building. You can easily angle the roof, sag down one side, and add an exterior extension (gas tank, pipes, etc) to give it a more… -
Re: [Finished!] ComEng V-Set Train.
Hello again, Wrapped up the low-poly for the catenary and a couple of other bits and pieces and bobs. My Substance license expired and I dithered about on whether or not it was worth coughing up for Adobe. I guess this year is when I poke around with Quixel perhaps. So i've got a fair few bakes and paints lined up. Started… -
Re: Spartan Hoplite
hey matt, great start! I'll try and cover as much as I can for you. From the front, the face looks pretty good. top of head from front is too wide, ears are flat on the head face looks kinda dopey from the side, stronger cheeks and less sagging jaw line might help. Oveall, you should adjust the side profile to look like a… -
Re: Need clarification about PBR Rougness+Metalness workflow. Please help!
The first thing to realize here is that the chart is simple example materials, not rules that all wood is X color. There is no correct albedo color for wood, because wood naturally will vary in color to a huge degree. What you have looks fine. Even roughness will vary to a huge degree, think very old, rough, dry wood, and… -
Re: Common shadow setups for mobile games?
We're using Unity. [Edit] Checked our settings and we are using 60 for shadow distance and Medium quality. That would make it 1024. [/Edit] By reducing the shadow distance to around 60 - 80 and not spreading it off into the horizon you can get away with some decent real-time shadows at low settings. You could even swap out… -
Re: 3ds Max Animation
Oh yea no problem. It's good you've used other rigs. I've used biped, a lot. It is a different kind of rig from I used before it, but once I got the hang of it, it was pretty great. If you hit any snags let me know we can probably work through it, don't worry about showing off early stuff as you're learning that is…
