Re: A good starting point for low poly modelling?
Call me a liar, will you? Most 3D programs have fixed bars of icons, and various windows and panels that contain various functions. In order to utilize all of the software effectively, you have to memorize what all of the little icons mean, which bars and tabs they are all on, how to access all of the various panels,… -
Re: First Environment from a newbie artist W.I.P.
I think they have a dull shine to them kind of like rubber or plastic. Normally these types of containers have a shinier finish. Are you planning on doing a spec map? If so you'll want to take out or reduce the highlights you painted in. If not, then you probably want to work on a bit of a shinier spec shine to some… -
Re: xbox360 controller in maya?
You gotta make sure the objects translate value is not a direct connection to the xenon controllers output. Example: pCube1.translateX = myControllerObject.xenonLeftStickX; <---- This would "snap" back when you let go of the Left Stick. pCube1.translateX = pCube1.translateX + myControllerObject.xenonLeftStickX; <---- This… -
Re: Is it worth the time? the evolution debate
![[Deleted User]](https://polycount.com/themes/polycount/design/default-avatar.gif)
I don't really know much about the subject, but I would think that the punctual distribution shown in fossils is probably a result of the relatively small number of intact fossils that have lasted and been discovered compared with the total number of actual creatures that probably lived at any given point in history. If… -
Re: anyone else who went to PAX get sick?
part of a long email that was sent around at work from HR How long can an infected person spread this virus to others? People infected with seasonal and 2009 H1N1 flu shed virus and may be able to infect others from 1 day before getting sick to 5 to 7 days after. This can be longer in some people, especially children and… -
Re: Why does Cyberpunk 2077 run so bad?
The OP to me read like a deliberate attempt at NeoGaf style flamebait,not an attempt to start a discussion. No wonder the backlash. Besides - what could you say other than lower the resolution or wait it out? At least I was told repeatedly that this developer is known to support their games long after release so there's… -

Re: What exactly is the consequence of Complex Collision in game design
Try stress-testing the physics system to understand tradeoffs. Make a simple container and drop 256 rigid bodies into it. Swap physics methods each time, from sphere up to per-triangle, and record framerates. We did this while developing a Wii game, and it was instructive. Mostly people here assume everyone's developing… -
Re: I'm building a website that centralizes stylized artwork and tutorials. I'd love everyones input.
Looks cool man! Some things I'd like to see; - The ability to rate tutorials, maybe sort tutorials by 'how many users found this useful.' Also if you included a skill level marker, that'd be cool. - A more rigorous search function. Examples: search by program, specialty (enviro, character, vfx, etc). I think allowing… -

@Drav cheers mate, you're welcome. @fuzzzzzz no problem mate. :) Day 3 - In-Engine(UE4) With everything finally finished it's time to bring the assets into UE4, a very smooth process in comparison to years past. ;) It's just a matter of exporting the mesh and bone hierarchy(no controllers/helpers/constraints/etc), with…
