Re: Need new PC - Workstation recommendations?
We have a stickied thread that should cover all the info you need when deciding what PC to build / buy: https://polycount.com/discussion/173350/upgrading-or-building-a-new-pc-this-is-the-thread-for-you/p1 And regarding the "HP Z4 G4 Workstation 6TT36EA", it appears to come in multiple configurations and a broad range of… -
Re: (SOLVED) MAXScript - Copy File From Directory and Paste In Directory
@Tekoppar I see. I'm glad that you mentioned it still. Since miauu replied I did make sure to add a few other things and it no longer fails if the folder is selected before the file. It is all working as intended but I thank you for bringing this to my attention too! The fact that copyFile could fail, etc, is very useful… -
Re: Issues with normal map shading
If that's the issue isn't it bit flawed in the first place? I tend to stay with the target-(engine) tangent space and the whole pipeline should adopt to it. So getting some (intended or not) custom tangents from the fbx seems counter productive. But maybe I'm missing a valid use case here? Edit: also if you're using custom… -
Re: [UE4] Stylized Dungeon Set
Are you planning on selling this pack on the Unreal Marketplace? How many different pieces do you intend to include in this set? What would you say is the best way to go about learning modular designed environments such as this? How did you go about planning for the molecular pieces for the environment? How did you blend… -
Re: Which Motion Capture System to Buy?

Re: Old Fishing Bait Shop
The ground is a static mesh. I'm starting to feel like the style of this piece is drifting away from what I originally intended. I'm worried now that it is more of a hybrid of stylized and more realistic textures. I'm almost thinking about ditching to scene idea... finishing the texturing on the original central pieces,… -
Re: WIP and other stuff
Hi, the first one looks great(old man with the pipe), I'd make the iris a darker color otherwise he kinda looks blind (unless it was intended in which case my comment is useless) The girl looks kinda masculine because her chin is kinda wide, maybe try softening out the main lines. The one made from the eyebrow-nose… -
Re: Caveman Cartoon Shading!
I guess you are rendering them out of Maya, to use as 2D sprites? Or do you intend to render them in realtime in 3D? It is difficult to make 3d look as good as hand-drawn 2d. Doing it in realtime is difficult, at least to get a good result: Convincing 3d that looks like 2d.... Wow Doing it in Maya and rendering sprites is… -
Re: Epic Blades!-Dan! vs. Rdmlegend weekly challenge.
http://img251.imageshack.us/img251/8900/scythe2.jpg I was wrapping up my Tier 1 (pun intended) when I realized... Brown and purple are terrible together. Currently playing with a few other colors. This is my second attempt at hand painting, and I think I'm starting to get the hang of it. My wood looks terrible, and my…
