Re: Fantasy Graveyard Mini Scene
Wow! Really nice work. I love these small scenes like this. To see what artist come up with a small amount of props. Everything looks very well placed and the textures are very nice. The only thing I wish I could see more of is the coffin and its details. IMO I think it would make the scene more creepy but overall looks… -
Re: Question: Continuity vs Multiple Elements
Sprunghunt, actually no. If the mesh was smooth shaded then that would be true, but since this is all hard edges you actually save quite a few vertices by doing like in figure A. Vertex lighting would be f-cked, true, but that is not used as much in current gen games though. On the other hand, you would probably get… -
Re: Learn how to increase speed of CS4!!!
it also helps to install the last update (PS in my case some weeks ago) and to install the latest GPU drivers (again PS related). Even though PS still flickers every now and then and stutters now and then it is already a fair bit as the way it ships. There is also a tool to unregister and thereby unload certain plugins to… -
Re: [WIP] Supernatural Monitor, in the vein of the "New Weird" genre
The road so far: ^ Started with this idea of an ~ 60s inspired terminal, based on an old idea of mine. At that time I was not sure about the style direction. ^ Later iterations made the bread box more slicker, and gave it antennas. The mechanism for the screen made it rather bulky, when unfolded. ^ This was the last… -
Re: Retro Dive Bar
Added some decals; posters, garbage on the floor. Posters are all 1950'esque, including a few from Fallout. Spent a few hours working on collisions for some of the meshes and took the grunge down a bit on the bar brass rails. The neon sign now flickers on and off! I've made the floor into tiles as well, now the tiles… -
Re: Portofolio website feedback please
Hey Nosslak, Thanks very much for taking the time to look at my site. I`ll revisit the design and the fonts a bit and make some changes, what you wrote makes sense and helps... I've been looking at it a bit too much the last couple of weeks and the fresh eyes and critiques help very much. Although I don't know why the… -
Re: should i model thickness of material?
You could get interior appearance with two sided material setup in unreal and unity engines. But if you're looking for two sided material appearance by default then you may want to model the interior faces. For very thin double sided surfaces I generally apply to this: You don't need to model actual thickness for your low… -
Re: [Riot Art Contest] - Chris Shepherd
Reply by C.K.Shepherd · · Home› Contests & Challenges Archives› Riot Art Contest› Riot Art Contest - VFXYou mean make the pixel sparks flicker as they die out? I agree, I should at least make them dim as they burn out. The distortion/explosion is a simple flat torus mesh I made in 3DS Max and I applied a panning mixmap/noise texture to it for the shockwave. For the big distortion bubble, I used the same method on a spehere… -
Re: TV as a monitor?
well my first requirement is to match my tv's aspect ratio because right now I don't think it likes being in 1080i with the refresh forced at 60hz... it usually refreshes at 30 but the screen will flicker for some reason in the default specs. The other option is to run my 4:3 monitor ultra stretched at 1280x720 and the tv… -
Re: need monitor advice
well the symptom is that currently when i turn the monitor on, the screen flashes, then goes blank, but the power light is clearly on. turn it off again, wait 5 seconds or so, turn it on and it powers up fine, but there's like... a buzzing sound coming from the back, and the monitor flickers occasionally. every now and…
