Not too shabby, off to a decent start. Crits: - It lacks the hard bends on the concept. If you're rendering from a high poly it could help to set up the smoothing groups or hard edges, to help give it that hard bend. - There are a bunch of little details that aren't showing up or were not included. - The texture is kind of…
I've had to cleaning suction cup marks off my monitor and explain to my wife where the welts came from. We are a small company and only a few of us are armed with nerf. Most people use rubber bands (I'm a pretty good shot) or toss a well placed hacky sack around. We did play a few rounds of throw the beach ball at your…
[ QUOTE ] In Japan they have made it illegal to resell or rent games, but then their game market is shrinking and ours is growing. [/ QUOTE ] hmm. not sure about that one. Maybe in Tokyo, but certainly not outside. I used to rent anything from games to mini discs, from my local chain. There's a different scene in Tokyo,…
Hi Nights! Tricky question. I have been using Zbrush for posing, but it really mostly works on dense meshes that you can then rework locally with sculpting tools. I don't think a lowpoly model would ever look right posed that way, using transpose. I would recommend grabbing a copy of 3DSMax (current demo will do) and use…
I also almost exclusively use screen mode when working in Max. I've been looking for a tweak equivalent in the past but now find myself moving mostly verts, edges a bit less, and polies even less. So I swith to screen mode, and hide the gizmo. To avoid the move to go crazily when the gizmo is off you need to click one the…
i cant belive you didnt tell him to come and collect his modem back ... or just told him you were gona keep it ... him argueing that you said you did want a new modem is lame ... if it was me i honestly would have told him if hes not round in half an hour to collect it , he can collect it from down the road , coz thats…
A.) you already paint within the UV you epxorted the model with,- if you click on the layer thingy (a mess GUI) you can goto the difuse texture for example by doubleclicking or some context menu thing. Another document should appear showing the UV- spaced texture - save that one and you have your texture or did I…
I studied Japanese for 5 years. Originally I was going to double major in it and teach English in Japan if the game industry fell through. I think learning in an structured environment is key for starting out. After you know enough Japanese to hold a decent conversation, then you should find someone to practice with in…
Awsome responses, I'm glad that I was right in thinking about getting a more traditional art education. In my time at the local community college I was planning on taking some art classes, some which are pre-requests for the more advance classes that would deal with the anatomy, etc. The whole getting away from home thing…
Yeah workstation I've tried out a few various ones at local shops but I haven't been able to demo one with the same action and key spacing as my Kurzweil PC-88 other than the Kurzweil PC2 (although I haven't had a chance to find or demo the K2600 which looks nice) I have big fat farmer fingers so i need keys that are a…
