Re: Do you prefer Video or Text tutorials?
Text. Easier to parse, faster to read, lets me go at my own pace. Video tutorials are never useful unless motion is important and if that motion cannot be conveyed by a series of pictures. Practical examples: I want to find out more about support loops for hard surface modeling. I'm not going to watch a 30-minute tutorial… -
Re: Benefits of modeling in Tris
The couch example is just to show the difference between triangulating and building the tris your self. Yes you can optimize that mesh even more but just for showing the difference. pior: No worries, I am discussing modeling in tris not really uv splits, shading split or material split. Optimizing the materials in a game… -
Re: BRAWL2 [Character] The Freelancer, Alexander
Amazing project (watched your YT vid as well) so cheers for sharing and also congrats, no doubt looks as though was a ton of work involved :+1: I particularly like the cloth sim'd objects especially those creased folds or wrinkled cloth they're quite realistic, for example on what appears to be a TOPP or MOPP suit?

Re: Breakdown of the AAA pipeline for game-ready realistic hero props

Re: Are there any good recommended tutorials that teach you how to draw and paint concepts in Photoshop?
Hi! Perhaps you find some useful info on the Concept wiki page I think the base of many environment concepts is a 3d blockout. For example concepts could be done on top of renders of a greybox level, or the current level state to explore options. I think a crucial part when fleshing out an idea, whether 2d or 3d, is… -
[3ds max] mapping shortcuts to actions that aren't exposed by the MAXScript listener or CUI?
I'm sure it's been asked before, but is there any way to map keyboard shortcuts (or custom toolbar buttons, or whatever else) to actions that 3ds max doesn't echo in the MAXScript listener, and which also don't seem to show up in Customize User Interface? For example, I want to map "Select by Element UV Toggle" in the Edit… -
