Re: So You Want to Work in the Video Game Industry
Surely the 'wannabe' is somewhat needlessly exaggerated... he coulda wrote the script to just say 'I do have some experience with modeling/texturing' and the rest would still be relevant. 'I've heard you can have action figures on your desk, I heard you get free soda and snacks' 'that's because it's your lunch and your… -
Re: Maya to Max while keeping topology
What do you mean by "normals weirdness" ? I've had some elements come in with faces flipped before. Often any smoothing group errors (hard/soft edges, normals etc) disappear when you convert to EPoly right after import. Usually running Unlock Normals and Freeze Transformations on your objects right before export from Maya… -
Re: MasteroftheFork's Wip/Sketch thread
I haven't been able to figure out a perfect solution, I may have to choose the lesser of two evils, the soft normals look better close up but the hard normals look better from afar :/ Anyways I finished the low poly, its just under 12000 tris, I could optimize it more by using more floating geometry but I decided uv space… -
Re: Space Station Overtaken
vig, he's probably faking it with geometry since it's for a game engine, so soft edges would be more difficult than that. nice stuff so far chris, I agree with Squirmy's suggestion though, maybe making those support struts thicker or entirely solid into the wall would really help the depth of this, make it not look quite… -
Re: Fire Extinguisher
Thanks for the input Ikaan, Stoofoo, and KDR_11k. I appreciate the help. The 'sticker' background pattern was per accident as I painted in purples, dark blues and greens to make it. And I used a selection surface kit to strip the paper away. I'm hoping the yellow and the change of pattern around the sticker will help… -
Re: Cat of prey [Update]
Yeah, you've defined the muscles very strangely. I'd recommend you try smoothing it all out, and then using a smaller harder brush to define the masses. At the moment the muscles look like blobs, very soft and uneven. Think about tendons, where the bellies of the muscles are (thickest points), insertions etc. It looks like… -
Re: Kingdom Death - The Preacher 37mm
and I am serious... You really have to take care of that soft left ass cheek dude. that heavy bad ass hammer thing is gonna add some dirty purple marks on it when she will walk.. in fact her sexiness's ass will be broooozed.. how about adding a sexy little leather patch type o thing hanging from her belt right under that… -
Re: [UT2K4] God Horus (*Update* Model download)
Clean and beautiful! Great job on pulling off those proportions, he looks heavy as hell without becoming unelegant. Love the hard rubbery quality of the soft pieces of his armour. The ankh emblazoned on his crotch looks a bit odd to me, though. It's almost as if it breaks with the "classiness" of the overall design and… -
Re: My experiences with DDS NM Compression
I updated the pic in the original post. Included your suggestion cman2k. Works quite nice with this particular scenario. One thing that does not come through in my examples is that the half-res version would not have as crisp details if there were any? I mean my normal map in this case is mimicking a quite soft shape. A… -
Re: How the hell did they do this?
When you say it "looks off" do you mean the glow is too large and soft? Or the actual tube itself doesn't look the way you want? If you can be more descriptive, I can give you some ideas of where to look. Personally I think your glow is too large, so I'd recommend playing with the settings in the lens effect glow dialog…
