That's pretty much what happens with new artists anyhow. Our work sucks even if we solve the technical end of things. Mine certainly did. I think artists need to strive for good looking results, from the start. It gives purpose, and a sense of accomplishment, if at the end of the process (and even in the middle) you can…
Okay I've hit a road block. The detail. How do I approach it? When I look at the albedo I get overwhelmed and have no idea where to start. There's a fair bit of variation in values, i think, but it's paying more attention to actual patterns and color variations now and I have no idea where to... even sort of start on that.…
It really depends on what degree you want to achieve. 8000 Words sounds like bachelors degree which is easy to achieve if you´ve already written some papers around 20 or 30 pages. For a bachelors-degree you would need to do a bit of research. For a masters-degree the research part would need to be bigger. But it really…
Thanks Zelfit my friend gave me an identical comment about the wood. I also agree about the brass. Billymcguffin: that document was very helpful I'm going to bed soon but I did see that it said brass did have a white highlight so it may be the exception as far as electric, I tried texturing it as a de-electric first but it…
I would discourage you from doing what that sentence says.. When working in the VFX/Viz industry, often clients have a non-disclosure agreement all the way. I've worked on several projects that I will never be able to show on my own portfolio, but only link to the clients youtube/website and then say "I made this and this…
@DMacDraws Thanks! @smwyatt45 Thanks, textures are almost all done with Substance Designer so I didn´t do that much :) I´ve been very busy with this project. It feels like making VR games is 20% art and 80 optimizing :) I´ve been jumping between props, environment, lighting, blueprints.... Even made our terrain material to…
I think it was a good decision to focus on the jugg sword at first. Here's some feedback for you: Try using bigger and less scratches. You got some 15-20 scratches right now and that big crack in the middle. You should try to use only 3 scratches and make the big crack more edgy. Just try it and see how it looks! The red…
thanks! We solved the problem of too many in a scene by capping this number in the code. We place the physics plants only sparingly, to keep the framerate solid, while still giving the players that cool interactive experience. once the players get out of range the physics plant is switched back to a instanced static mesh.…
Art test is total waste of time and unpaid art test are showing how much studios care about their employees[or to be employees] Getting the job is not in any case reward because your are not slave you give your time and expertise in exchange for money Can you even imagine freelancer with 15-20 project per year mostly from…
Single player is great, More of the same as Arkham city but definately fun and interesting still, Love the fast travel and going back to the batcave is pretty neat. Playing on PC. Only really had the vent bug on the radio tower and one crash so far. Multiplayer is super fun, but the matchmaking is pretty horrible at the…
