Re: Darth Vader
What do you think? This is the High definition model. Still finishing some details, like buttons which I will do in Maya, and clothes details like wrinkles and seams that i will do in Ndo. This is my first Character model, i have some doubts about the low poly modelling. I´v been looking some character models and i don´t… -
Re: To normal map or not to normal map
Normal maps are (generally) a lot of work, because they introduce a high-poly sculpt, retopology, and tinkering with normal map settings to your work flow. 3rd and first person games often use normal maps because the player camera is really close to the model(s), and isometric and top-down usually don't. WoW is a good… -
Re: Sony to disallow resell or renting of PlayStation games after initially supporting it
I'm not going to argue either way but comparing used games to used cars or sofas is pretty silly. If you don't think so I'll sell you my used car at a Gamestop mark down and my Lay-Z-Boy as well. and Overlord, turning every thread into a "game industry is going to fail" thread is becoming a bit tiring. I recently browsed… -

Re: My Colt 1911 model and textures [Help needed]
Gloss maps are specular power maps (udk) are roughness maps (physically based rendering), they control how mirror like a surface is. Mirrors have a maximum gloss value, and thus specular reflection highlights become narrow and take the shape of an actual lightbulb. Something like used leather, has a very low gloss value… -
Re: Looking for freelance concept artists and 3D artists
Sure the project will be a top down shooter much like Under Defeat and\or Renegade Ops but with a physics component using a next generation engine with all the graphical bells and whistles. The game will of course be in 3D, but a next gen version of old school shmups with a physics component. I require the modelers to work… -

Re: Environment: Wonderland Throne Room (WIP)
Update #2 - More Cloth Assets A smaller update - just adding in some more Cloth/Drape assets as shown in the original concept sketch. Overall, it seems to be doing a good job of breaking up the areas of pure white marble. (The floor is a bit overexposed/blown out, but that should resolve when I make the actual Floor Tiles)… -
Re: Building a Work/Game PC: Humbly requesting a second set of eyes, please
Looking good. Personally I would always spend more money on the CPU than the gpu, since the CPU is going to be a limiting factor over a longer period of time, while the gpu is upgrade able. I wouldn't go with anything under an i7 3770. I also wouldn't go with anything under 16gb. I built the same machine you are doing here… -
Re: LA Noire
I've seen some absolutely amazing animators do keyframed lip-sync animation for games, just to watch the mouths barely move in-engine. Blinks no longer blink, but simply slightly close the eye a little rounded out by a bezier curve. Actions like putting a cigar in a mouth put the cigar in the middle of the cheek. If I were…
