Re: Western Tale Character WIP: Reynard
I have created Reynard's rifle over the past couple of days. School has started up, found out I only have the next 4 weeks to finish up all of my portfolio work for my final class. Yikes. Here is the concept by my friend Bennett Jobling: A Side View Render of the high poly model pre-smoothing: A Shot of the "floating"… -
Re: Optimizing polystrips
I thought it was something to do with triangle-stripping, but I might be wrong. If I'm right, then it means having a row of quads all triangulated in the same direction, so their vertex winding order is always the same. I'm not sure how much of a benefit this is, I seem to remember reading some engines/platforms handle… -
Re: My car thread - low to mid poly cars
yeah doing that fancy method creates and extra row of polys, which I then have to manually delete. was a real pain in the ass the next stage to to make any new cars i make subd 1 then add the panelling/detail it will then be just about smooth looking :/ -
Re: organic rock UV seams
Right... because no one ever has two rocks in their scene... heh. Two rocks per sheet, nearly 100% of the pixels being used, if you really wanted to use 100% you actually could using the baseball unwrap. I wouldn't use a rectangle texture, its a waste. Most games are set up to expect a specific size. So a material slot… -
Re: Edge loops running through mesh

Re: Combat Knife
make sure that you flip the green channel if you baked normals in max Also, your tri count seems very high, there are a lot of areas that seam really excessive(all the groves modeled in, with multiple edges per grove). And it seems like you've go so much geometry that it is hurting your bakes in some cases. Are the side… -
Baking woes - Please help / Ultimate Weapon Tutorial -related. :(
Hey guys, I have been following Tim Bergholz’ Ultimate Weapon tutorial for the last 2 weeks. After watching the modeling videos I got a nice looking AK-M (floaters in yellow). I also followed his edge straightening instructions and got everything all packed up nice and tidy. However, when it comes to baking everything goes… -
Wolf Shield
Hi) I wanted to make something for practice and had a weird idea to model something like a Game of Thrones themed shield, or maybe a small scene involving it. My initial aim was to make the shield highly damaged, with few arrows in it and place it on the edge of a cliff, so it would seem like it was abandoned in a battle,…
