@786979 I understand it can be disappointing to do a whole model, only to have people criticize it; but you have to realize, the feedback offered was for your benefit, and were not insults. If no one points out what needs to be improved in your model, you might not see it. The default here at polycount is to give critique.…
Hehe yeah Mark I agree, it's a fine balance ... Still, I think that it's awesome when games have a photo mode giving full control on that kind of settings. Also sometimes it's great fun to simply walk around slowly in a game or engine tech demo with lens effects cranked up - like a movie director ! I think there can be a…
Thank you for the feedback, it has been truly valuable! I've taken each of your points in consideration and redesigned the resume as such: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/7821237/Ivar_Hill_Resume_new2.pdf Definitely more readable I think :) The font is Source Sans Pro, an open source font family by Adobe - I use this…
We were just trying to make sure we were understanding where you were at on the project. THe wiki at top of page has alot of info http://cgi.tutsplus.com/tutorials/next-gen-weapon-creation-part-1-the-high-poly-model--cg-782 This tutorial series by Ben Bolton I think is a fantastic way to start off
Perhaps the 290x does - my 4870, 7870, and now 380 do not / did not. So warn against 290x's (if they are in fact the cause) in the same way nvidia 970's are to be avoided in Substance Painter (or in general due, to the memory problem).
I think it's missing smaller branches, the tree branch just kinda cuts off after the first level of detail. See here (sorry for the small res): http://us.cdn4.123rf.com/168nwm/afhunta/afhunta1010/afhunta101000076/7880178-the-branches-of-trees-without-leaves-against-the-sky.jpg Also, one thing that might be a bit more…
We had a thread recently about tree modeling software. http://polycount.com/discussion/201506/what-is-the-best-software-for-creating-foliage-trees-bushes-grass-etc The Grove came up as a nice solution, it's a paid plugin for Blender. They have some nice timelapses of growth animation in their Twitter feed, might give you…
Looking great! Allthough I think the shape/size of the helmet looks a bit off. Also the middle-layer vest? The wrinkles around it's edge are a bit too much and too uniform. I don't even know if the vest is layered like that. I think the strap/hook-things are integrated straight on the kevlar-vest. I'd also drop the elbow…
I would wait for the 900 series cards to come out, they will be relatively affordable compared to the past pricing of the higher end cards (the 980 should be $450 I think? I paid that amount for my 770 4gb almost exactly a year ago, and its nearly 25% faster). That or get a 770 4gb when the new series comes out, should be…
