Re: Beginner 3D Model – Need Feedback on Topology
Agreed with Flat Face. Definitely think about the context that you envision for this asset. Think about how much screen space it will take up and how the player will interact with it. e.g. will it take up the whole screen and will the player get to visually analyse it for as long as they want? or will it be a small prop… -

Re: Where can I learn how topology should look when smoothened ?
Sub D doesn't matter. Animated sub D matters. Low poly doesn't matter. Animated low poly matters. If it smooths properly, who cares? Your example above shows three edges converging to one so normally you would merge the other two, but maybe there is a reason for the three. There is a guy here who does a low poly of his… -
Maya - (Need Help!!) Cloth Rig, Cape/Shawl

Any suggestions, tips or explanations on a driven joint-based shawl set up would be very appreciated! I cannot use nCloth or nHair… -
Beginner artist goals, Well-Rounded or Specialized?

Re: Max vs Maya
"Does have anything remotely close to Biped/Character Studio? If not are there rigging tools available like PuppetShop, CAT or CrypticAR?" Something like The Setup Machine blows away Biped or Cryptic. There are a number of excellent and proven low-cost or free rigs for Maya that blow away almost anything Max has to offer… -
Re: Brutal Knights - Game Project/Learning Experience
This is a really annoying issue I always seem to run into when importing FBX animations from Blender into Unity since there is usually a bit of a time gap in-between so I decided to write a post in order to remember how I solve it. (I need to start utilizing Export Presets...) The issue is jittery animations when using IK… -
Re: PIXEL ART
There is a way to discover exactly how many frames you need, but it depends on the project specifications. If that animation is for a game, you need to know the display framerate of the game. It is usually 30fps or 60fps, but let's consider it's 30fps as an example. In a 30fps game, 30 frames amount to one second of…
