Some lighting suggestions/thoughts and stuff :) * (Red) these small-radius red lights are cool. Like 'em. * (Green) This is pretty obviously a point light with no source, doesn't make much sense w/out a fixture/source. If you need/want "fill lights" in certain areas to get rid of darkness without a global change, you'll…
Model pretty much sculpted. Just need to add some cracks and details to the wings. Spent a couple minutes rendering in Zbrush, not sure it was worth it for seeing details, so I added some matcap shots. A lot of this process was masking different areas and using Deformation > Inflate to give some cracked sections an offset…
Just double checking after a bunch of searches.... Is this even possible/has anyone had any success publishing items via Softimage, or is everyone using a middle man (Max/Maya/Blender) to get Softimage created items into the game? The closest I've gotten is using Valve's .SMD tools on an old 32 bit version of Softimage and…
I've been trying some stuff with unwrapping to see what I can get away with w/r/t normal baking and geometry complexity. I'm going to redo the unwrap on the flat file because those drawers are prominent, and there is some "bowing" in the apparent surface when a strong spec highlight goes across it. In other areas,…
Hi Noth The heat is fine, runs most games/UDK/Crysis at 45-60fps with no noticeable frame drops. I lecturer with it every day so I am constantly getting it in and out off my back pack, I bang it around at work, boot of the car and at home my kids smash it around and it has not let me down yet....touch wood! Honestly the…
If you're talking about games, then ultimately the model will need to be unwrapped, unless it's literally one color and you can just slap a shader on it. If you're talking abotu movies, then I'm afraid I can't help you much. I think it's pretty much the same idea of unwrapping, but here the UV maps don't need to be squared…
Nice work man! Lots of effort into the material definition and roughness usage. - That white trim of the overhang/roof has this repeated rust/stain that is tiling across the entirety, would be good to alpha it out in spots. - The triangular flag banner movement is pretty unnatural, just looks like it sinewaves back and…
Wow, I really didn't think a thread regarding your or you're could go for 3 pages... As far as grammer goes, I'm not too bad, I mean I'm the son of an english teacher, my speech has been corrected since I had the ability to form sentences. Though typos do happen. I also seem to use "brb" when conversing on aim. I don't…
honestly i just can't get excited about another standard subway scene. this is looking good for what it is, but what it is, well it's a more than a little generic. everyone gravitates toward the vaguely NY style subway station and we've all seen it before... why don't you try and replicate one of the many considerably more…
discuss w/e you feel comfortable with others, but DON'T let the management know.. Besides, exactly! a fairness argument is NOT leverage, quitting is. if you would work for free that is what you are worth to management. i worked as a lead position and a buddy of mine was making just a bit more (2%?). He got another offer &…
