Re: help with new gaming system
I think one of the main things affecting what card you go for now is if you want to play Crysis when it's out, and if so if you want to play it at it's higher settings. I've heard that crysis multiplayer servers will be divided into dx9 and dx10 servers (dx10 will have more physics stuff going and things), so keep that in… -
Re: Lil' Ghost Rider - CC2010 Entry
Hm I thought I replied to this, but my PC must have lost power while posting or smth. Anyway, I made some chains a while ago: each shackle uses 20 polies, and the alpha'd strips are 16 polies per 6 shackles. You could also connect some verts on the character and extrude those polies, but that wouldn't be a good solution at… -

Question regarding your asset building process
Hey guys, let me just start by saying I love Polycount. I've been enamored with the forums ever since stumbling across them a few months ago. This is a really awesome place. I've been working with UDK for a few months and just recently getting into asset creation (using 3ds Max 2012). I've watched tutorials on 3dmotive,… -
Dumpster model (First decent model - needs critique) [WIP]
COMPLETION EDIT 4/20/2012: Well, it's about 2:30am on a school night and I just finished doing the specular and diffuse maps. I'm so happy with the way this thing turned out, and the only problem that I see with it is my poor unwrap causing some of the smaller parts such as the wheels to be very low resolution. I hope you… -
2 Questions: Black Seams on AO Bake & Selecting Inverted Faces Only
Hi there! Beginner digital artist here. I'm texturing someone else's model, and I've run into two problems in Maya 2012. I'm doing an Ambient Occlusion Bake on the texture using mental ray batch bake of a Surface Shader with mib_amb_occlusion mapped to Incandescence. Works fine most of the time, but the bake always ends up… -
Changing the way bones are displayed in 3DS Max?
Background: I've used some fanmade tools to convert a character from Street Fighter 4 to SMD, then used Cannonfodder's* SMD importer to get the model plus its rig into Max 2012. The plan is to cull the number of bones to 128, do the face morphing and then put the character to work in Source Film Maker. Problem: STARFISH OF… -
Mixer - Experimenting with Materials
hey y'all ! I've been doing some tests with the Quixel Mixer and thought about sharing them here :) For a little bit of context, Quixel Mixer is a newly released software which allows you to create tilleable surfaces, but the main different with say substance designer is that this one heavily relies on photogrammetry. As a… -
WIP hard surface modeling in Maya - dirt racer car

Currently working on the wheels and the interior of where the wheels are. I chose this particar off-road racer because it sorta fit a…
