Re: 3dsMax Normal Mapped Beveled Cyclinder Issue
Yeah make sure your hard edges match your uv layout. When you have a hard edge but no uv seam the baker tries to draw two different angles along that one line of pixels and you get these artifacts. You dont always need hardedges where you have uv seams(but it never hurts) You do always need uv seams where you have hard… -
Re: Monkey camp
Mega reboot, probably more than the 10th version! I think I finally found a proper style for the rocks. I restarted without any sculpting, here is what I've got. I managed to reuse some of the rocks done early. The overhang will be replaced with the planks once I'm happy with the layout. Two quick renders, one just with… -
Re: Hilltop farmhouse
This is great, thanks for the feedback. I haven't really spent time on composition yet, other than to use the layout from the concept. Just filling in assets as I get the time to make them. The yellow light is odd there, it's for a lamp asset I haven't built yet. I'm also planning to have light spilling out of some of the… -
Re: [3Ds Max] Is rigging and skinning before texturing ok?
Not only in games, also for movies. But then you usally use a layout mesh to animate as early as possible. For a recent unity project I had to create 1 Character, Vehicle and Building which needed to be animated. I created my rig first after the models had good proportions and gave them to the animator. Then while the… -
Re: How much detail would you put on a fridge game asset?
I remember a few years back someone had written some "Level Tools" for Maya back when they where just bought out by Autodesk (I think he worked for High Moon, they where working on some Born Identity game and used the tools to layout levels in Maya). The tools had a library script included and even some advanced placement… -
Re: Nukem Pig
You need to really optimize your polygon usage, you really shouldn't need more than 6000 polys for this character. Some areas where I can see you cutting down your polys are in the lower arms and on his jeans. You can just start collapsing edges all over the place and still keep your silhouette. Your uv layout could also… -
Re: Critiques/Comments Needed for New Website
Your thumbnails should show what we are going to be viewing just at a smaller size. With your first two thumbnails I can't tell what I'm going to see if I click it. The first one is a weapon and the thumbnail makes it appear to be an oil barrel, imo. Plus to echo the points made before, everything is soooooo small and hard… -
Re: Unreal Ed help please Players falling through modl
I hope this will help you. I haven't use unrealED for a long time. But as far as I can remember you have to create a base geometry in editor just simple substracted or added cubes to get the basic layout. They have to be all solid. I think there is a setting for that. Than add all the static meshes, becouse they are only… -
Re: Joe Gracey Portfolio Critique
Thanks everyone for the great feedback! @PolyHertz: Thanks for the very detailed feedback, just what I needed to hear. @Eric Wiley: Thanks for the website feedback, and for telling me to put some 2D stuff up. I really should work on my 2D skills, because I'm noticing many more studio's wanting solid 2D along with 3D.… -
Re: Opera..
Well, I'm using Firefox now. I'm liking the Bookmarks Toolbar, and omgwtftabbrowsing is actually pretty useful. So sue me. That said, it does display some pages weirdly (layout of some webmail changed for no reason, some font sizes are being screwed up). Plus I'm not a fan of the way it loads images on a webpage, with the…
