RGAC - Khenton's Curse: Recourse
Topic by animagical · · Home› Contests & Challenges Archives› Reallusion Game Character Animation ContestI finally have the time to start a WIP thread for my contribution to this contest. First an introduction. Even though my forum handle is "animagical", I'm actually know as "animagic" over at the RL forum. My specialty is making animated films using iClone, which I have been doing for several years. I am not a modeler, so I… -
Looking for a LOW POLY modeller for 2.5d iphone car game
Im looking for a LOW POLY modeller to assist with creating some low poly assets for an iphone car racing game. The game is a top down style game with pixel art cars, trees and smaller items. The track is a textured 3d plane. I am looking for a number of low poly models to be built and textured in a style that suits the… -
Re: Will autodesk ever fix the transparency display problems in maya?
I listed some examples that show that someone at Autodesk is working on Viewport 2.0. Its seems like there simply are not enough man hours devoted to it. As a new viewport renderer (VP2.0) they have the opportunity to re-write the transparency sorting features, for example take a look at the drop-down box in VP2.0 listing… -
Re: Computer Color is Broken - a short video on colors, displays, Photoshop, and blurring
on a side note... Coming from traditional media years before I considered painting would really be possible on computers it at first took me a long time to wrap my head around using sliders or simply droplet selecting hue value and sat. And what was a correct blend between two colors is different when considering the… -
Re: Texturing Characters and more...
What you're really taking about is materials and textures rather than UVs. There's a number of reasons to have multiple materials and UV sets on a model. Some examples : 1.The character is made of modular pieces, for clothing customisation, npc/background character generation etc. 2.You need higher resolution textures for… -
Re: Can I bake this into normal map?
I think you are not understanding how a texture is applied on relation to the UV of the model. On this gif I'm using a tileable brick texture with two examples: One where the model has some UV shells/islands/pieces with equal texel distribution (the UV's are scaled acording to the size of its polygons in the 3d space so… -
Scripting streamlines your 3d workflow
I think a lot of 3D artists overlook the power that scripting with their 3D application provides them. "I'm an artist - so why do I care about scripting?" I hear you cry. Scripts are great for automating repetive tasks, and you don't need to be a programmer to take advantage of them, though if you understand a few of the… -
Re: Need help in baking related problem
On UV issue - well that's curious and something you'd want to resolve. I recommend checking the asset in engine (assuming it's a game asset), alternatively could import into a fresh file. Regarding supporting loops/ bevels: I think once the mesh shades nicely, adding more support loops will do little and mainly increase… -
Re: Unwrapping a bit more complex cylindrical shape (issue with vertical faces)
Splitting and straightening the UV islands to increase the overall texture density makes sense in theory but in practice it's a bit more complicated than that since there's multiple factors to consider. In the overall scheme of things a single road wheel is a very small part of a tank and it's unlikely that every part of… -
Re: Artists' view on proper human proportions
JordanN, WarrenM: Agreed I didn't refer to you before but I just want to say these are words of the wise which I fully respect! Mischievous: I sure know what you mean about nature being fake sometimes. MartinH: That sure is a great thread. Going straight to my inspiration folder. :) Brandon.LaFrance, Bigjohn: I absolutely…
