Re: [Maya] Quick Pipe : Curve-Edge Based Path Creation Tool
Posting this in case anyone wondering how to fix this Edit Pipe error. It happens because an error in the code... This code snippet: the last two lines was intended to get a connection from subCurve node, which is the "ADN_Base_CPath02_Shape", for the $QPipePath variable (that's why you could edit it manually like @Chase &… -
Re: Most efficient strategies for texturing modular architecture assets?
There's never one reason, because every game is a little different in what is contributing to render time. The question of production time vs. resource usage is absolutely a consideration, too. Glass: Is it translucent? If yes, it probably needs an opacity map of some kind. If that's in an alpha channel, that texture… -
Re: You know why Max is -fucking- awesome?
Whoa there killer. I think you miss the point entirely. This thread was originally about the pains people receive from using Max. From my experience, Max has many features that do not work as they're intended, or give erroneous results. You've made no mention of tools in XSI that do not work as intended, or give bad… -
Re: Are uvmaps copyrighted or considered a "template" for ideas?
sorry for late reply, I made my own model but i wanted to use a uvmap layout on mine very similar to one that already exists. And to be fair I dont think theres too many different ways to map a character since there is only so many different ways to efficiently cut and seam islands in a standard industry manner. I will… -

Re: 38 Revolver
Love the model, details, bake, renders, just about everything. One thing though, it feels like a very slight bump up in specular/gloss would really polish this thing off (no pun intended). Just every so slight. You have a really nice textured metal feel, but its just a tad dull, though it might have to do with softer… -
Re: Professionals, Please help. Going to the game and simulating world
Here's straight from my finger! Pun intended. I think the term Game Designer covers more than just setting up a car. It's about how the whole game works, how players progress, how a game is played, and so on. From what you described, I think you'll fit into 2 roles. Yes car design is 1, that's purely on the art side.… -
Re: Gladitorial Fighitng Game Character
I'm not aiming to recreate a specific type of gladiator from x point in history. It's more Gladiator inspired fantasy. The game that I intend to prototype with this guy focuses on building a warrior as opposed to selecting from a roster of characters. So, I wouldn't call it a base mesh, but If I were to make body… -
Re: Black Smoke
So the idea behind achieving that sort of transparency is to render out two high resolution images (I go for 8K) - one render using additive transparency and one using dithered transparency. Then take the two images, overlay them in Photoshop, and resize to desired resolution. This tutorial by Marmoset is very helpful, and… -
Re: Datacore UDK environment
Thanks :] gsokol: i was actually using several textures if you read my earlier posts, but most if it was built using one texture. And yes, the reflections are a bit too strong maybe, I am cheating alot with the reflections, might have overdone it a bit...heh ^^ Well, here it is. Its not even that modular, I actually really…
