Re: A clock
In cases like this one, it may be better to have two textures, a small alpha'd texture for things that are small and detailed like the clock hands and other similar parts and a larger, non-alpha'd texture for the rest of it. Of course it also depends on the game engine and how textures are compressed for the build and also… -
Re: Fire Hydrant (yes, another one!) :shifty:
This is a great idea to really get to know Zbrush. I should probably do this too. I agree with Nosslak - you're going to have to smooth all those edges. I can see this looking really good though. Regarding the chains - there were some links given in my old thread that you may wish to check out for some ideas -… -
Re: Do all polys have to be connected?
This is the part I don't get. In an example like that, there's practically a 90' angle between the two parts, with the length of the cylinder being pretty long. So there's a good chance that they're going to have to be on separate UV islands anyway (especially in OP's example, where many of the knobs are more complicated… -
Re: [Unity] Space Shooter (Working Title)
That turret is so cool! And I love what you are going for. but personally I think your space is too dark, I am not a fan of very black space, even if it is more accurate. A thought I got would maybe to have a level in a nebula? Between two stars, space clouds and stuff. This would give you a lot more color and appeal to… -
Re: Quixel SUITE - News
Before now, I could not texture but with Ddo I feel like a pro. Only if textures will look great in unity has they do in 3DO, only then will I be completely happy with DDO. Again, DDO uses too much ram. I run it on a laptop with asgig of ram, rendering at 4K takes years to complete in DDo. Guys at Quixel should please make… -
Re: New Mini Tut - Selection
I had an interesting one like this too when I had to select every other polygon on the side of a cylinder. Point was to create a sprocket with teeth, for the Dozer DVD. I spent a while figuring things out with StepRing/StepLoop from the Graphite tools. I was really confused at first since it doesn't allow StepRing with… -
Re: Punisher Zbrush First project
Really incredible progress! I'm really liking the new direction on the face also. Here's a quick anatomy note. Right now it feels like the trapezius muslce is ending far too early, before it can connect to the shoulder. Since I'm not sure if you mean for him to be super bulky or just muscular, here are two extremes of that… -
Re: Hard Mesh 2.1 - Visual Guide
Every update gets better and better! Thanks for using my suggestions. Running much more stable too. maya's 'show all' still unhides all the operation meshes in the stack, though. this removes much of the usefulness of the native object isolation display tools. Wish there was some other way to hide those meshes so they were… -
Re: Movie theatre jerks.
^ROFL! i usually make real REAL sotto voce comments that even i can barely hear. i tend towards going to the earliest screening possible to avoid too many people being in it. but then i also tend to go to saturaday morning/lunchtimes of the opening weekend, so that's a crapshoot. the incredibles was the best, i saw that in… -
Re: Hope all you Americans have lots of storage space
this part caught my attention: [ QUOTE ] Not one Democrat opposed the SAFE Act. Two Republicans did: Rep. Ron Paul, the libertarian-leaning presidential candidate from Texas, and Rep. Paul Broun from Georgia. [/ QUOTE ] The wording on this bill is dangerous and stupid. I'm glad someone in there has some sense to realize…
