Re: Help with Mudbox Displacement maps
it would be easier to find a solution if you can post more images of your mudbox sculpt, your model/wireframe inside Max and screenshot of your displacement map. you dont really need a "displace" modifier. displace is for displacing mesh before render. you dont even need turbo smooth unless your model is too lowpoly.… -
Re: ShoeBox: 2d gamedev tools
I am almost done porting the new UI, its using a new UI rendering technique which uses Android's Patch .9.png system. Here a screen in the debug mode with wireframes and bounds. The settings are actually a lot easier to read and manage now I think. There are some new little details in the UI that you might notice if you… -
Re: Quick Portfolio Review - Environment Art
Hey man nice portfolio, like the layout and design of it all too. I think your top two pieces are the strongest, followed the Foundry piece on here was nice too see! I think the bottom two pieces come across as a little de-saturated/low contrast though so maybe that's something to look at. In terms of content I think it… -
Re: Fridge-tank
Yeh, ill harp that its never really a good idea to edit your normal maps, try to get in the habit of getting nice clean bakes of the actual shapes you want. It may sound harmless but in production it can create nightmares of constant and frequent retouching and confusion when handing off assets to other artists. With… -
Re: Recent Grad Portfolio (critiques & feedback please)
Your art is nice. However there are a few things that could be improved. You should separate your Character Art from your Non-Character Art, as it currently stands it could confuse potential employers if you were to apply to a posting for an "Environment Artist" or "Character Artist". There is no need to have a separate… -
Re: uPaint, .upp, .psk and custom models for UT2k4
1) Use an existing texture for your reference (trainer girl's current skin(s)) 2) Start painting on top of it 3) Every so often save as bmp, import to UnrealEd texture package, name it something you'll remember 4) go to mesh browser, bring up trainer girl, in material properties, point to your imported texture to see your… -
Re: Finished Blizzard Entry. "Taurck"
I think the beauty is much better, the presentation doesn't have a good view of the model. The orthos aren't worth it if you ask me; they don't show much more than your beauty does. It's not as if the designers would have enough pictures to judge your real do-we-want-him-quality without a wireframe anyway. Though, perhaps… -
Re: mausoleum
Hi- I've now started the somewhat laborious process of adding supporting edges to the model so it can be smoothed and allow for a better mesh. I can see now that this is something I should've done from the start... Since using Zbrush is definitely part of my personal process, I additionally try to make sure that there are… -
Re: LP730 Project
Looks cool man digging the post apocalyptic theme (and these regular weekend projects), good to hear about your computer, what did you swap out? Overall the car body looks sick, very Mercedes Mclaren/muscle car/Ferrari. My only gripe is the protrusion in the middle of the bumper looks really thin around the edges, and the… -
Re: Portfolio critique
Basically what I was getting at is that if they'd like to see more beyond what is on the first page, they really don't have the option of doing so. Any closeups of your gun detail, character detail, are great. The absolute must have is still images of your wireframes. Often they don't want to look at your wires in a moving…
