Re: Level designer vs. Enviro artist
Sprunghunt - PES/FIFA/Madden/MLB/NFL don't have levels, do they? They have pitches/courts and teams. As I pointed out to Mop, racing games often use pre-existing tracks, which are not really levels. Semantics? Aye, very probably. In that case a level COULD POSSIBLY BE DEFINED as a discrete section that measures progress.… -

Re: Article: Game Art Art

Re: Legend of Zelda - Disting's Take
Thank you very much for your feedback! I really appreciate it! :) Unless this update on the face looks better, I'm gonna have to redo it I think, because I just feel stuck.. I brightened up the area around his eyes, added some rose color to his cheeks and smoother that whole area out, added some blue to his chin line and… -
Re: Making different scales work together
Will you get close to the rig? Or is it just a background piece? When I made some race tracks I used alpha decals of skid marks hovering about an inch over the surface to break up the pavement textures. They were also set to cull out from a distance. Maybe you can do something similar for the rust and wear streaks. -
Re: Maya- Subdiv modeling, and is it useful?
The 3 key equivalent to a Mesh > Smooth operation with 2 divisions. This will result in actually smoothing your mesh which can be transferred to game engines. Generally, throwing some smoothing operations on your model doesn't result in very optmized meshes for games though; except in certain situations like race tracks,… -
Re: Need help decision making

Re: Hand Painted Textures - Seeking Feedback and Crits
The wood looks more like leather stripes to me (I found this page that could be useful to you for the bark: http://www.zerobigsis.com/hand-painted-textures-tutorial-page.html) The stones need some love for what concern color variation and details such as cracks. The biggest problem I see with the bricks instead is that you… -
Re: Sketchbook: Ed
University project where we had to design and create a race track for a mobile game, I did a lot of the modelling and texturing. Everything is using a simple unlit shader plus some vertex colors, so no real time lights and normal/spec/emissive etc maps. I'm not too happy with it though, I think I could have done a better…
