Re: Introduction and Multiple Questions
1. If you want true full-featured freeware, you will have to learn Blender 3D. http://www.blender.org It is quite easily the most full-featured free-to-use program that can be used to produce commercial work. SoftImage XSI Mod Tool is also a good option, but it is constrained in several ways that make it less flexible. I… -
Re: ART REVIEWS BY REQUEST
Hey @"Eric Chadwick", No worries, its pretty difficult for me to get defensive. I completely agree with you that people can learn from the critiques of others. I do intend to make all of the critiques accessible to anyone interested for free as well to ensure the most people can learn as possible, especially if they arent… -
Re: Northern Ireland: 1983 Project
Alright chaps, got a load of stuff to update you with tonight. I apoligise for the sketchy information relating to poly count on several of these pieces, but as I don't have a PC that can run 3DS max, i don't have the ability to check the poly count before i put work up for critique. I'll hopefully be rectifying that with… -
Re: [CE3] Bioshock Environment Homage
Cheers for the replies fellas! Ill try and answer everyone (if possible) so bare with me :D @gsokol - Yeah, my initial idea was to have a sign like that above the door as I kinda started off backwards, I created the door first and designed the environment around it when I decided that I wanted to go further with it. The… -
Re: Gothic 3......
I will ask the character artist to post some screenshots of the mehes and UVs of the characters. Hope he can tell you more about what has happened at end of the production time. When I look at the characters closely, I think they also did some poly crunching beside the downsampling of the textures. I know that they had to… -
Re: Concept to environment: Wasteland Waystation
Ok, I'm going to shamelessly lift adam's scene breakdown format because dammit, he did it right. What I'm Trying to Do: - Produce a very competitive portfolio piece (this is the big one... I'm going on sixteen months unemployed and have to land some kind of job in my area very, very soon) - Transition from U3 Editor to UDK… -
Re: APC Sci-Fi
Hey there. An awesome piece you did so far. A few crits from me: for your base texture I think you are giving it a bit too much occlusion. I think toning it down will help to see the details and forms that are located in the tighter areas of the model. So Maybe tone down the occlusion or brighten your basecolor. Another… -
Re: Finding it confusing to land a job.
I agree with everything said above. All i want to add is try to be humble and open minded about always needing to learn something. Don't settle on the fact that "you have experience" people do not really care if you have 10 years of experience if your work is not what they are looking for.Also please, i beg you, don't let… -
Re: Baking from ZBrush .obj vs .fbx
@floon I never decimate my meshes, unless it's a character going into Marvelous Designer. To speed up simulation performance. But for baking I go with the original high poly model to get best possible baking results. Also, I always use .obj for baking. I haven't encountered shading problems when getting an .OBJ (yes,… -
Re: 3rd Person Platformer - Feline Hero Character (WIP)
@Melazee Thank you for the kind comment and feedback! I love platformers too and working on this guy has been a blast! While I don't plan on rigging him myself, I want this character to be ready to go onto the next stage in a production pipeline so I have been building his low poly mesh to be ready for rigging. Basically…
