OK, here it is, I took a look at Naughty Dog's papers and their setup, and this should more or less roughly translate to what they did: Sky Ambient setup will look like this: World mask fed into a Lerp's Alpha and each slot takes in a color to fake the sky setup. I used a sky blue and deep red color to show what it will…
This is valuable information indeed! Thanks for answering and sharing your insight for this. Just few more questions. Did you bake normals for the wetness/caruncula mesh from the HP head to made it fit "seamlessly" together with the main LP head mesh? And I guess you probably need some sort of alpha to fade the glossiness…
Okay, it's time for a relatively small update: I did some work on the wings, the body, the lamp and fixed some topology errors I hadn't noticed before. I'm kind of struggling with deciding whether to add more detail to the body and the motors via extra geo, or if I should add the detail with textures and normal maps. The…
Comments: @marq4porsche: Thank you! Did edit the grass texture. :) @spectre1130: Thanks so much for the comments. I appreciate it. :D @urgaffel: Yeah I'm still not sure about the roof texture, I did add some ivy to cover up some of the tiling. Also the crack urn , yeah Ill see if I can go in there and edit it later.…
If excluding the space bashing kit you using in this video, I don't see nothing so exceptional in the modelling task (the quantity and quantity of nice preset in modo, natively or like plugin, is another nice feature). By my personal experience (stress this point, what I said is strictly IMHO) blender is more fast. I…
Ha! I see what you mean now. So, that sort of lightning can usually be baked fairly easily with max and maya. Most of the time you will get the option to either render this to texture, or to vertices. I never actually did it in Max but in Maya look for batch bake > MentalRay, there is tons of things you can do, even…

Cause i have 2 - 3 rolling hoops that have an animated texture. i am considering removing…
Cheapo Ramen noodles are a big cube of terrible. Let me introduce you to butterbean risotto, poor people and cheapskates. You'll still need some fruit and veg, but this thing has a complete protein (he said, pretending to know what it meant) so it should keep you from keeling over for a while. At the most basic of basic,…
@0:37 As for dedicated GPU, I checked my nvidia settings yesterday, following some guides, but the options I am directed to change do not appear in my settings. So I have literally no idea how to change it so my GPU is being used always. I use Open Hardware Monitor to show what resources my machine is using. When I launch…
While I dont agree to the extent that some of those gamers went to by harassing people at Bioware I feel they have every right to be upset and petition for a change to the ending if they saw it. Having been heavily invested in Mass Effect and having finished 3 I totally see and feel from where they, as the consumer, are…
