Re: ZBrush noob questions
- Ctrl+N will clear the canvas of snapshots - Yes you can... but it wont be as realistic as one that is attached. Attached ears are usually better for baking and retopo as well. There are a few ways to merge it in. The easiest way would be to Merge it down (Tool>Subtool>Merge Down) and then Dynamesh it. When you Dynamesh… -
Re: Loss of Motivation in a Professional Environment
Since I enjoy the IP I work on its somewhat easy to stay motivated and not to mention money is involved. But for me 3d has always been less about the art of it and more being better and challenging yourself so I find if its not hard enough I get bored. Hell I don't even care about 3d that much its just what I do and Its… -
Re: Physically based rendering in games
osman PBR is not just about some realism, this realism is totally dependent from your artistic ideas ( Disney's Wreck-It Ralph for instance), this more in some cases about consistency, how consistent spec across all surfaces, how all objects react on environment, how they fit to the scene in every place. All this old… -
Re: New Member-Feedback on car model
It looks pretty good in hi poly. And as for having it at 2 iterations, it wouldn't matter on high poly, so long as it doesn't give you problems. I can see where topology might be issue in some areas. I believe you're NURBs modelling in a way if your utilizing turboSmooth to create the high poly? For this situation, since… -
Re: Hawken Mech Bay WIP
Ammo Boxes I got around to making a few variants of the ammo boxes and baking a normal map for them. The front pieces and the handles still have topology as I felt like they didn't look right when they were normal mapped on. The topology of the face pieces has also been optimized, I think that's as optimized as I can get… -
Re: if british beer is so good, where can I get it?
Regarding AZ's claims of Pacific northwest US beers: If you like malty (high alcohol) beers with lots of tangy hoppy bitterness, then the Pacific northwest is king. Here are a few of my favorites: Dick's ESB - Maltier than a typical English, a bit roasty. You can't go wrong with anything made by Dick's. My favorite… -
Re: and I thought my flying phobia was irrational...
[ QUOTE ] Do you freak out that much when flying, Daz? [/ QUOTE ] No, but I *used* to. It used to be the hardest thing in my life to do. I was utterly terrified. But I wouldn't be visibly terrified, I was also embarrased by and very conscious of my fear. I didn't want to display it. But inwardly I would be a total nervous… -
Re: high res sculpting - why bother?
I think they have a standard head mesh they project onto the cleaned up scan, and then project textures from camera positions in maya or nuke or something else. Ok I think I'm starting to see your point and maybe agree with you - under certain circumstances. Under 360/PS3 gen art budgets, it would be really easy to take a… -
Re: North Korea responsible for Sony Pictures hack... The age of cyber warfare has begun
The amount of harm is actually pretty big when you look at the ripple effects in the economy. You could cripple an entire first world nation if you kept the power off long enough. A major disturbance would mean the loss of billions of dollars across several industries. Ever been without running water for a few weeks after… -
Re: id Software's game RAGE rated TEEN Online petition
Attempting to re-rail a train wreck is hard, but hey let me try and get some useful info out of ya... - What teeth does the petition have if its founder will still buy and enjoy the game? - What do you think the chances are of getting a petition to envoke any kind of change if it has no teeth? - Even if you manage to raise…
