Re: You got to see this... Puppet Warp Photoshop...
ofc they have marketing team, doesn't every large company and product have one? If bloated is a factor.. PS7 or for some CS2 should be our last upgrade :) but this is an awesome feature which i already have thought quite a few uses for texturing, creating patterns, concept pose tweaks.. not to mention 2D animation… -
Re: Gotta get gains | Character modeling
Hey luksa17, that's a good start, before you start texturing you gotta take a step back and refine a bit more. When working on a stylized concept you should look at the bigger shapes and imagine them as just simple objects. This makes it easier to capture the silhouette. This guy is basically 3 spheres with the sphere for… -
Re: Article: Game Art Art
The game comes with a level editor, so you can get a good look at the effect, and you can see the meshes they used. They're pretty similar to this. There's no importer though, so you can't get new meshes into the game. Usually grass like this uses vertex color to control which vertices get perturbed by the vertex shader.… -
Re: Multiple sub object material?
You can basically set up your multi sub object material before anything and have it ready once you combine the two meshes. If you're using Max, you set it up with the two materials, then you can combine the two meshes. Make sure once you've combined the two meshes that you apply the multi sub object material on that new… -
Re: Gun modelling edge flow questions
I'd suggest starting with a blocky object and realizing it's not going to be perfectly curvy where you want it. Then once you have a simple entire object slowly add detail (verts/polys) EVENLY and with only quads or tris. Stay CLEAN. Work up to your target poly count and realize that it won't look like like a next-gen game… -
Re: workflow problems
Here is my current workflow: Sculpt in Zbrush. Use decimation or, more often, ZRemesher to get a 'quick and dirty' version of the asset into the game. If it really needs UVs, I use UV master. I don't bother saving the lower polycount version in Zbrush, just Maya, as I view it as temporary. Once it's in the engine, I can… -
Re: Rumor on Reddit: Autodesk is no longer going to develop 3dsmax and Motion Builder
Probably because it is true. Once programs send information back and forth to one another seamlessly (Mud Walker) and navigation is consistent from one to another (example: implementation of maya's navigation into 3ds max 2013)... They will probably start selling all of their packages as modular packages. So if all you… -
Re: serriffe - portfolio designworks
Hi there, right now, it's currently on a blocking stage and sorta midway of greyboxing to modular build. The trees are just started off as basic primitive cylinder and just kept adding geometry to it. I try to keep my geometry very simple so I can make easy changes. I try to avoid making the geometry very dense, makes it… -
Re: Tehran, reTweet from Neil Gaiman
Unless i';m mistaken a state militia of national guard has to be activated before it's answerable to the federal government, so in a situation where a state wanted to secede or rebel or whatever they could just retain command of them. That may not be the way it works anymore. And the conventional victory would be capture… -
Re: [maya] froX : an xNormal script exporter for maya
xNormal can render only one normal map at once, so I think it's better to keep the current process as-is, because it's hard to ask to xNormal to redo a map when you don't know if the program is already launched or not. If I make maya to ask if xNormal is finished before rendering a second map, it will freeze the program. I…
