Exactly. I've baked in ZBrush before too, but the seams that show when you render in Max make it effectively useless. I've been running DX9 viewports for a day now, and the weird randomly-occurring issue's still around. I have a couple more specifics about it - I can't alter the selection in the viewport, but I can via the…
Well, as far as adding actual geometry details, you are going to have to use your creativity and start adding things. Look at references of space ships that fit this style, and really study what kind of shapes/details they have on it and then mimic them in your model. Things like little screws and bolts, metal panels,…
I hate how they add some "cool" new feature... and then break its knees with horrible shortcut keys! :( I Googled this for ages a while back, and it seems everything that involves clicking is hardcoded. It's also pretty retarded that your cursor starts out on the 2d Saturation-Value box, so that any mouse movement changes…
A little stressful time, but I am trying to spend a least a couple of hours sculpting each day. Sadly I didn't had the time to adjust the issues with the male base mesh, as a private project is growing (several characters til the end of summer for a game) so I did the first two faces for major characters of the story.…
Hi everyone, so I spent a couple hours starting to put these pieces into a scene together. I put in a few lights to start and still have a lot of work to do but I figured I'd at least put up what I've worked on to see if anyone has any feedback on how it's looking, composition, ideas for things to add? References would be…
So I tweaked the proportions a bit, added some fleshy-ness because I felt the sculpt was looking too bony, and up-res'd the details a bit. I also brought it into Maya to do a quick light test, which has helped a lot I think. I've really been wanting to learn VRay, so this has been a perfect opportunity to jump in and…
Could you start the project (or at least start to plan it) without the answers to those questions? Did they say you couldn't? My general tip is be proactive. If the employer sees that you step out of your way to create it, it shines brighter. For example; after my first interview with Avalanche I memorized some concepts…
Yes I have tried meshes around 1 to 2 million polys and Max would crash on me every 5 to 10 minutes and my computer would crash every half hour. The model wouldn't even open on the school computers it would crash before it could start. All in all a huge pain in the ass. When I get it up to the 700k to 800k polys it starts…
Alright guys so here is what is going down. I have decided to stop my banana tut. Sorry Guys I will post the full thing later. I have to finish my thesis and will use this thread to show progression. I found out what I want to do to get it done and the VG Remix contest helped me with that and getting me onto a path of…
Thx for all feedback and I know I should change my mesh at the first place but I just thought that noone told that I should change my mesh and after all the works I done (It may look like it is easy but for me it is a lot of hard work) th critism appeared from nowhere and I didnt want to start over. Maybe I should start…
