Re: Relationship issues caused by 3d?
The polarized replies here are interesting. I don't think there is a great answer either way. I'ts really hard. I agree with Baj and Jason for the most part. Relationships are continual compromises and the grass is rarely greener from my experience. Relationships are alot like 3D or any other art. You start off with… -
Re: My Cavity Map Notes:
PredatorGSR: OK, you're right, that greyscale texture you've got from the XNormal plugins really doesn't look all that useful. I dunno if there's some settings you haven't got right (maybe invert green channel and see if it comes out better?) but here's the results I'd expect generated from CrazyBump: Hope you don't mind… -
Re: Diablo 3 Witch Doctor Crest
For the flag and imported the rod into marvelous designer and made a simple hanging sheet. I wanted to make the rips and tears on an alpha card so that required that I go and utilize the Transfer Attributes option in Maya. A quick break down on how that was done: Marvelous Designer exports their .obj's tessimated. I wanted… -
Re: [Portfolio] Virtuosic
Squig: Fun model, but I'm can't see the effect of the spec map. I would take this into UT3 and get a nice shader with reflection, heavier spec, some very subtle fresnel and a couple of detail maps for normal skin detail. Diffuse texture-wise you have not got enough color variation in there, the whole thing is basically the… -
Re: Modeling with a Pen rather than a Mouse
McBradd I use the exact same config as yours : tablet on the left, mouse on the right. Whatever happens on the left screen I control with the stylus either on the intuos or straight on the cintiq screen, anything else on the right screen I do with the mouse. I rarely use Wacom's display toggle fonction (makes the cursor… -

Re: Student Loan Forgiveness of 2012
I was an idiot when i was trying to get into college. i came from redneckville usa, so college was the best option to get a life. But i failed to look at the big picture as my college AI racked up a shit ton of debt making me think I needed the degree. Anyways, would be interesting if this bill passed, but I doubt. I think… -
Re: How to check if legal software was used ?
To be fair there's only a handful of programs that a really worth buying/pirating, in the end we're fortunate enough as artists to have access to quite a wide range of free and open-source resources. If someone used a pirated copy of 3DSMax and they used a non-legit copy of Photoshop for example, what's stopping them from… -
Feedback for a complete beginner
Hi folks, I decided to start learning to create some game assets. I have read a bunch about what is expected of such models but I got overwhelmed and confused with the information. I decided to go ahead and try my hand at a relatively simple model, so I created a spiked club. I had previously followed a quick course about…
