This is only necessary when your lowpoly mesh it too lowpoly and there are no verts at the place of highpoly details. The ray direction upon baking will go along average normal directions. So imagine this same mesh with averaged normals displayed. That is the reason for why did you get the distortion, because the "view…
Thank's for the answer guys ! After further investigation, i found out that i just need to use nurbs, wich is kind of the equivalent (as far as i understand) as surface models in CAD softwares. I sent a polygonal subdivision model converted to nurbs in Maya to my machinist, and apparently it opened as a surface model in…
This environment benefited mostly from instancing. I have 2K textures on most medium/large foliage assets but it still runs fine on most PC's. 120FPS+ on mine. It was made into an actual working game called ithaca, which is a 20 minute exploration/psychological experience, mainly as an art showcase though. For the foliage,…

For now I'd ignore the larger idea of a scene and focus on the building until you're 100% happy. I'd still recommend looking at Assassin's Creed…
I love how every one assumes that paying taxes is a bad thing... If you have cancer in europe (not the UK) you wont have to sell your house or your children's kidneys to pay for the meds.... in France a senior gets about 2500-3000 euros, it can go higher with experience or if you're really awesome and market yourself well…
