Re: Clients that won't let you show your work after release.
I can kinda see not being able to show the tech side of things. texture flats, wire frames and such. I mean, look at half the art dumps on Polycount. Most of them don't have the tech side of it all, and I`m guessing its because that's all they are allowed to show. Trade secrets, maybe? I dunno. But ya, If it's released,… -
Re: Halo Style Environment (WIP)
@Benvox2 Thanks man. Had a look in the Unreal Docs and parameters are going to help. I really like the orange too but I am struggeling to make it all blend, So I have given the objects all a neutral material and am trying to get them all in the scene. Once in the scene I think it should be easier to figure out how the… -
Re: Computer upgrade time! SSD advice?
Since upgrading to ssd's, ive had a LOT of BSOD and random freezing. and yes, i turned off all the stuff i was suppose to. I had a 60gig OCZ agility 3 for windows and maya and stuff, and a 120 gig for games. on the weekend, i noticed my windows one was near full, same with the games, so i reformatted the 120gig, took out… -
Re: Bevels vs Sharps
No, not at all. Vert count isn't all that important because it's a relatively minor cost compared to all the other things. The most significant cost in a deferred renderer is how many times each pixel gets interfered with. Many things contribute to this cost and it's only indirectly related to how many triangles/verts are… -
Re: The 0.04 linear value in photoshop.
Are you sure about that Cheese? Do you have any examples? Here is a comparison I did just now with Andrew's gun in all 3. I didn't alter any levels this is all straight out of the box exports. Also I'm not sure if they fixed GGX for Unity standard shader either. Someone made a way to be able to use GGX a while back here… -
Re: Cry Engine VS Unreal Engine
Vitor, there are some tech demo videos of CryEngine2 rendering different environments. I don't see why it wouldn't be able to, it has all of the groundwork in there for pretty much any location or lighting setup you need, it seems. However I think a lot of the technology it's using is fairly overrated, and mostly the only… -
Re: Deconstructing foliage shader from Rural Australia pack, question about packed texture
What's been done in this shader is unconventional and tbh looks a bit masturbatory Personally I'd have taken the sss and roughness out, compressed them as a 2 channel texture and halved the size if I was desperate to save memory. if the cost of one extra texture read per tree material is causing you problems then I'd… -
image tagging solutions?
Hey all, Like everybody here I tend to collect a bit of reference imagery. Most of it I store in my Dropbox for easy access from anywhere. I usually dont create complex folder categories, except when I come accross a pack of say, 20 images from one specific artist in which case I usually put them in a dedicated folder.… -
Blockout phase (Maya to Unreal)
Hi, This is the first time I work making a Blockout phase and I got a problem about transitioning from Maya to Unreal. At first, I made my blockout scene in Maya, then, I selected all my assets and export selection in one fbx file that. Once in UE5, I imported the file that contained all my assets, selected all my assets… -
Re: Looking for feedback and guidance – 3D Artist seeking job opportunities
Hey! The situation in the 3D industry right now is, mildly speaking, not good. There were a lot of factors but I'm sure you've heard about the layoffs and studio closures. What this means is that it's currently very hard to get a job as a 3D artist. I've seen people looking for jobs for way longer than 6 months, so you're…
