Re: A national video game registry
Isn't this the same thing that happens EVERY time there's a shooting incident? First they blame guns, then they find out the shooter played video games, maybe it goes back to gun control, then they finally realize it's just mental illness. It's a tiring argument, that the media has to always rehash; ignore facts, and… -
Re: Maya: Bake vertex ao into a specific channel?
You're probably looking for PolyColorPerVertex You can query each channel and set too. Some sample code. Note this will probably be slow on higher vertex counts: import maya.cmds as cmdssel = cmds.ls(sl=True)start = cmds.timerX()for obj in sel: totalVerts = cmds.polyEvaluate(obj, vertex=True) window =… -
Re: John's art improvement/portfolio critique thread - please critique me!
Hm. Well, I'm not picky at all about where I work; those are just studios who make some of my favorite games and have some of my favorite artstyles. I assumed there was kind of a "generic" pool of subjects and styles that were acceptable for concept art portfolios, since the portfolios I've seen tend to be pretty… -
Re: What Category do I Fall into?
I feel like there should be a sticky that reads "If you are asking questions about your art or portfolio, you must post your portfolio". To answer your question though, just do what you like. Obviously, if you're making some crazy art that no one does at all with a super weird style, then maybe studios will be hesitant to… -

Hunching over can… -
Re: 3ds Max Modifier - AdvArray
thank you for your input, I appreciate the feedback. this is far beyond itoos free array plugin. many more options. and far more performant than an mcg graph by far. I have tried both and have added many features that cannot be achieved using the free software out there. of course, if all you need is basic array needs,… -
Re: Average number of animation frames in modern characters?
1300 frames doesn't sound like a lot to me. At 30fps that's roughly what 40-45 seconds? I guess if its a bunch of 30-60 frame cycles it might seem like a lot but I deal with animating 2000+ frames in 3dsmax timeline and the characters are often in some semi-dense scenes. I haven't used Messiah before so I'm not really sure… -
Re: BFA Final - Secret Government Base (UDK)
The gloss of the phong lighting model is simply the exponent of the specular reflection. By default your textures range from 0 to 1, so the maximum exponent you'd get would be 1 (where the texture is pure white). When you multiply it with a large number, you'll end up with exponents such as 20 or 40, which will darken the… -
Re: [Portfolio Review Humble Request] Brian Choi - Character Artist
On your resume, I'd lose the gray rectangle around the headings (EDUCATION, WORK EXPERIENCE, etc.) - bold and caps make the titles stand out already, and if you need more than indent the content. You should probably get a new email address - there's no guarantee that USC will keep the account active, and it makes it appear… -
