Re: Long time member, first time poster. Here is my first completed environment. C&C appreciated.
I had made singular assets before and small scenes all through college but this was the first time that I actually set down to make a full environment. This is also the project that I realized that I wanted to specialize in environment art. I made a lot of the small vegetation in 3DS Max, the rocks and the large tree trunk… -
Re: Anyone upgrading to Windows 10?
My laptop had the same issue. I tried manually triggering the update through the hidden $windows.~BT folder on the C: drive and it would give me a missing file error. I deleted the folder and the windows update download cache and used that cmd trick and ended up with the same error after it redownloaded. Eventually I just… -
Re: [FINISHED] Real-Time Character - Pigeon - Marmoset Toolbag 5
This is great critique @Noren, thanks a lot for taking your time to type it out. You are right, as the beauty shots were the parts I struggled with the most, with many iterations being made. It really was hard to pose and light the model while maintaining a consistent and natural look across all materials. I did use the… -
Re: Female Elf Character - Critique Requested

Re: Destructoid's 10 Rules of Videogame Women
Actually he's a tramp being pulled around by a princess, and yes I have played the game all the way through. Let me tell you, that was the biggest kick-in-the-nuts ending I've ever seen, very much relating to her. At least Diablo's had the tragic hero angle. The problem is that she had so many dialogue options, and while I… -

Re: 3D Training Institute - any good?
I've taken a few classes with CGMA after learning modeling fundamentals by myself with Blender and have mixed feelings. I imagine that the classes vary significantly between instructors. All my classes were based around environment art for videogames. Intro to Maya was a fantastic class for learning Maya. The instructor… -
Re: Over time discussion cont'd
So here's why i think crunch is almost always down to poor planning. i say this without any studio experience, BUT i think if any of you truly believe crunch is something only experienced in this industry, then you probably lack perspective. it exists in most industries, moreso the creative ones, but even in retail it… -
Re: UDK-Swirling particles, how?
Hey Nielsen I was able to get the particles to start swirling, it just requires some further tweaks to the values in both attractors. Let me just explain it a bit so that you can get yours going: 1. Start with a basic particle emitter. I deleted the velocity on mine but you can keep it if you want to affect those… -
Re: 3DS Max - Scatter tool problem >_>
Scatter compound object is one of the older tools, so it's had less love than newer approaches. Thankfully like everything else in Max there are multiple ways to scatter things. Object Paint is pretty nice https://help.autodesk.com/view/3DSMAX/2024/ENU/?guid=GUID-2C745521-EAD4-4A9E-A2CF-7A4B6DDC486D Array modifier is the…
