Re: Incubus WIP - Critiques Requested!
![TorQue[MoD]](https://us.v-cdn.net/5021068/uploads/userpics/978/n9Y8GE4KMHMJB.jpg)
Looking very nice actually, though isn't an incubus a male sexual predator? What you're modeling looks more like a Satyr to me. Also, the tail is most definitely in the wrong spot. Tails typically come directly off the butt (IE vertically) and then curve out since they're an extension of the spinal cord. This image is a… -
Re: Lighting build help in UDK
1. when you build all, that rebuilds bsp, paths and lights. build light builds lighting only. the error you are getting is because you need a lightmass importance volume. to add one, just right click on the volumes and add one. :D scroll down to lightmass importance volume http://www.hourences.com/tutorials-ue3-lightmass/… -
Re: Pangahas' videogame art career starts here..
I agree with what Kevin is saying. You're sacrificing silhouette and at lower polycounts that very important. Take off the horizontal ones before you take off the vertical loops. I would be less concerned with having a super efficient model. That stuff will come with time and experience. Also the textures are pretty flat.… -
Re: Forklift [wip] TF2
Vig knows his stuff. The AO they use on the TF2 models is really noisy across the board, even on characters and hero props like the bomb cart. If you're using xNormal and getting really smooth results, you could just take it into Photoshop and use a noise filter on it to make it fit in a little better. Giving the entire… -
Re: First Next Gen character
cool bro, good progress. the chick in the ref is built like a brick shithouse. that is going to make it hard for something we know is fake to seem real b/c the real thing hardly looks real, if that makes any sense. in the last post, she looks scaled down, somewhat dwarfish. i would just scale that girl vertically and she… -
Re: edit poly vs. editable poly hotkeys in max
As you make cuts, extrudes, etc., the vertex order is established. If you stack more modifiers that hinge on the vertex order on top of that, then go back down and weld or alter the numbered vertices in any way, it might totally destroy all Edit Poly Modifiers' edits above it in the stack. I'd avoid using multiple Edit… -
Re: MY Space Ship goes BWWAAAA!!
Pretty sweet man.I think the graffiti in the last pic is a bit too saturated. Looks damn good on the brick, though. I like the window's but in the last pic, the top left window, it looks like the crack from the glass is going over the frame, maybe I can't see it very well but that is what it looks like. I think the… -
Re: New MaxScript, input requested
It would be nice to have a way to re-grab the first spline again, to add onto it, instead of creating a new spline. This would help when I want to traverse the model to start on the other side. Have you tried just using Editable Spline's "Create Line" with snap set to vertices, Show End Result on, with a Surface mod on… -
Re: Problem with Zbrush noise maker tool and seams
While it is possible to do this seamlessly with noisemaker, you won't be able to avoid distortion of the chainmail texture. You'd need to make the UV seams perfectly straight vertically where you can currently see the error, then play around with the alpha scale until it matches perfectly. I have an old example of this… -
Re: Resources for Getting Better at ZBrush?
sure sounds like a good plan to me. you can swap back and forth a bit too, I just make a point that it is a lot to tackle all at once, so if you separate your learning into distinct areas like this it is a lot more manageable. Like, if you are doing some tutorial to learn basic workflows, don't worry about the model…
