Well I'd really start smaller.. there's lots of stuff you would have to design yourself, because you cannot tell from the concept only. And this only makes sense if you make it hard surface / subd. Atleast to me. I don't wanna judge your modelling skills.. but not knowing how to approach pretty much shows how experienced…
the way i know most do it (non modular envs) is add new material with you new texture to the desired part (EG stucco on walls)and then UVmap those polys... add another new material with a new texture and UVmap those... rinse and repeat if working in max you can use the poly selection used when adding the amterial to…
No worries Pies- Im just glad to finally know what Halo level people are talking about! Synergy: We might post some process stuff down the road. Whats been exciting about this project is its the first time I`ve ever been able to work almost exclusively in max. The way cryengine3 is set up, 3dsmax is basically an extension…
You haved curved normals baked into your normal map, when you really need something way more neutral. I assume you are re-using these areas of your normal map on multiple cards, but the curvature of those cards isn't consistent, so when it changes you get inaccurate shading. Are you baking curved pieces of hair onto flat…
Yeah, but that really depends on the studio and the team. It does happen, but some managers push against this (short-sightedly IMO). The bigger thing is you get exposure to more of the whole pipeline, in-house. You have to move your assets through the whole process from start to finish, providing input on the concept…
Like MattyWS said it is just a school library lol but I get your point thanks I did have the lower shelves like that but the perspective.made it seem a bit off and with the reference I was using it was too maybe ill go back and move stuff about and see, it's all modular so shouldn't take to long from the blueprints it…
Been busy the last few weeks, too many deadlines at work, but I was able to plug away a few more hours on the block-out. Anyway here's where it's headin' got a few more props proxy modeled. There just for size and shape and I probly spent too much time on some of em, but I want to get it close to the final model's…
I don't know why you seem to be leaning towards Sandy Bridge E processors (socket 2011). While the processor is about the same cost as a 3770k, the performance is slightly lower, and you are paying an arm and a leg for a socket 2011 motherboard. Get yourself a 3770k and a nice z77 board, and you can easily save £100. I…
I have done a bunch of 3d printing for functional parts: Prototype iterations: Acetone polished plug: Same 3d printed plug coated in primer then hand sanded from 320 through 2000 grit and finally polished: A final carbon fiber part: A 3d printed modular helmholtz resonator chamber. The chamber volume was tuned by swapping…
The 'latest news' icon is that of an rss-feed, yet the website doesn't actually have an rss-feed. I'm sure you're glad I pointed this out to you before the angry masses showed up, pitchforks and all. This looks pretty nice, guys. How's the usability? I haven't checked the entire website yet (it's going very slow for me, at…
