Re: Problem with viewport in 3ds max
Sorry, somehow I kinda missed the fact you're working off wonky photo ref. When you don't have nice orthographic images planes aren't actually that useful There are various camera matching solutions (there's a rudimentary example supplied with max iirc). Usually they rely on knowing something about the way the image was… -
Texturing workflow for a large asset?
Hi, I'm a game artist and I'm in the process of making a large table that has a lot of sculpted detail. I just finished the sculpt in ZBrush and I'm now UVing it. The shells do not have enough texel density if I map them to a 2k map so I was going to just cave and use a 4k instead. However, I've been watching some videos… -
Re: ANSWERED: Best Workflow to Generate ID Map
When I create ID Maps I usually use Maya. I use the DDO swatches and apply them to the mesh(es). Then I simply bake it out using Transfer Maps. Sometimes there are issues with bleeding, but you can usually avoid that by adjusting the cage. If you don't know how to see the cage, it's in the dropdown menu of the target mesh… -

Re: Fallout 3
The Lincoln Repeater, maxed out on condition thanks to copious hunting rifles, usually kills most soft targets in a single headshot. The combat shotgun is usually equally as efficient at close range. The Reservist's sniper rifle, while limited to three shots, is definitely lethal at long range (red mist ftw), and usually… -

Re: 3ds max: various problems
Just chiming in, not sure if anything I'm saying will help or not, lol. 1. Are you either overshooting or undershooting it every time you try to rotate it to that specific point? I usually just zoom in and try and get it as close as I can, if I need a vert in an exact position I usually just type in the coordinates. 3.… -
Re: Should I create the LOD objects manually or...
LODs in my experience usually re-use the same texture, but they have to have their own UVs. The vertices are often in different locations and the vertex order is quite different. Can't re-use the same UVs. The layout of those UVs are usually very similar though, to fit the same texture. I've seen some games use a new… -
Re: Art test and no response, normal?
I've usually gotten confirmation when submitting an art test. It helps to ask a question when you send an email so there is a reason for them to respond. Something like "here is my art test, when should I expect to hear back?". I usually try to check in every week if no timeline has been given, but I usually ask when I…
