Maya grid not drawn
I'm working through a tutorial in my new book, and it's shown me how to get Maya to draw the grid, and how to set the scale. I've set it all up as taught, but neither before, nor after has it actually drawn a grid at all. Could this be something to do with GL vs. D3D? Is there a way to switch between the two? I'm going to… -
Ngons, Aye or Nay ?
Hello Polycount As probably many of you since the day I've been learning to do 3D I was always told 'remember Ngons are bad, never use them" and I kept to this rule till now. So I'm mid way through the Ultimate Weapon Tutorial by Tim Bergholz and in his workflow I've noticed he uses quite number of ngons. So I'm trying to… -
Terminator Shotgun

Cheat or not?
i'm wondering , it is considered cheat if we use base mesh from someone else or use alphas and others source in zbrush? or its totally ok to do it so in this industry? i kinda feel bad to use someone else base mesh/imm/alphas and then hearing someone "u did awesome" but then again at school the teacher told us on the… -
Re: Starting to learn to draw, i feel lost from start, how to start.
Sorry, that was really bad from my side to say it. I don't have patient to sit in class and draw. I would really like to do it in my own pace, and not just to do it, just to get diploma or something. And, i am not sure if i can get a good instructor to teach me. Most of the teachers here i have heard from those so called… -
Re: UV layouts
hmmm ok i get that, i usually like to combine textures if they are directly related to one another for example i combined the wall texture with the pillar texture because the pillar goes on the wall, and i also combined a bed sheet texture with a bed and mattress texture because they go together and will almost always be… -
Re: Portfolio critique, internship
I sat there staring at a blank screen for maybe 30 seconds while it loaded. That's really, really bad. The sideways scrolling (which is rarely done well) took 5 or 6 spins of my mousewheel to completely expose the next thumbnail. That's pretty bad too. The individual project pages aren't nearly as obnoxious, but the… -
Re: SA80 L85A2 Assault Rifle.
Thanks mallen and drew.. ja, i botched the mag. Hope i fixed it now. Well spotted Earthquake and Drav, tbh that was bad planning and then bad editing, tired eyes.

Re: Diffrence between editor view and in game preview

After using launch button it look scrystal clear. My bad, such simple thing took me that time to find out. By the way i wonder why the difference… -
Re: Saw a very young kid being sold a copy of MW3 in Gamestop today.
COD3 may very well be worse than Skyrim. However, you just undermined your argument when you stated that, had the game been Skyrim you would have never brought it up. But they're both rated M games. Which means you are basing your argument off of your own opinion of the difference in what is bad and what is really bad.…
