We Got Tired of “Final” Renders Breaking — So We Built a Gate Instead
If you’ve shipped enough work, you’ve seen this moment: You approve a render. Someone changes one small thing. The final output doesn’t match what you signed off on. No one did anything “wrong.” But now you’re explaining differences to a client. That’s the problem we wanted to solve. The Real Issue Isn’t Quality — It’s… -

Beyond Human Artstation Challenge - Game Environment/Level Art
Hi everyone, A bit late to the polycount but I've decided to try out my skills and learn something new. I'll be making a game environment scene based on Helio Frazao's concept that he did for environment design challenge.

Re: How The F*#% Do I Model This? - Reply for help with specific shapes - (Post attempt before asking)
2300511685 Overall it looks like you're already on the right track. It really just depends on what the model is for. If it's for games: the brake has a very rough surface finish and it's a very small part that's typically further away from the player's main point of view. So the current high poly is more than passable… -
Re: Normal map seam

I did some digging and I found some info on TA.org that strangely enough Eric helped author =P It looked really familiar too, it explained how to get nicely smoothed gradients over hard edged geometry. So yea I remembered it could be done just forgot the specifics. It's funny because I my… -

Re: Houdini HDA breaks FBXs normals into Unreal Engine
I ended up changing the logic of the tool and instead of importing FBXs into houdini I now instantiate the unreal engine actors on points where my windows, doors and balconies are supposed to be. It was a bit painful and i still do not understand why the previous method broke but now things are working -
Re: Secret from Inside the White House (wow!)
Great thread. But not enough conspiracy n00bs or "nothing to see, move along" people, like you would find in a discussion here. Glad to know it's becoming common knowledge that Bush acts like a clueless dumbass to convince 51% of American voters, he's one of them. That does qualify him as a genius. Except for the fact he's…
