Re: In need of motivation
Yes. If you're doing a 2D game, you always want to do a mockup so you know what a screen of the game will look like. In the same way that 3D artists need a piece of concept art, a photo, or some other kind of reference to work of from, you need to create some guidelines for yourself so you can determine the look of the… -
Re: Self Teaching Max?
the best way to learn 3d is to have a personal project. start from learning the pipeline from concept to creation. start small and simple. make a cartoon guy or a simple room with a few items in it. if you suck at texturing, spend time making a few projects about texturing. if you suck at modeling make a few focus projects… -
Re: Help me remember this old awesome game!
Awesome that you found it! Japhir this makes for a good thread if everyone out there wants to find an old game they used to play, I really liked hi-octane <(Dos game, not PSX but they must have just ported it over) in case anyone wants to give that a go. I want to say let's make this an on going thread cause I too have a… -
Re: Routes into the gaming industry.
You have some ambitious goals. A few talented and lucky folks have made it on their own, but it's a true rarity. You will most likely have to specialize in something (art, programming, etc.) because I think it's a pipe dream to consider becoming an independent developer without first establishing some strength in at least… -
Re: Drug Smugglers Stash Apartment - CryEngine - WIP
Are you working from a concept? In my experience in can be a real challenge to finish an environment without some kind of inital concept or photo reference. It's obvious that you need more detail in there. At first glance I thought those blocks of cocaine were untextured books or packages of paper, pay attention to… -
Re: FINAL Ally Albon - Environment
@Saiblade - thank you for the kind comment, and yes - am working rather hard to get my portfolio up to standard, its a lot of fun and a lot of hard work! I am undecided yet as to how I will add the scifi elements, I think I will make some modular pieces and build them up as I go (or as much as possible, in 2 days) Thanks… -
Re: [UE4] Fallout 4 & Dear Esther Inspired Environment
Oh man, thanks for the feedback, I've been wondering why the sky felt "off" and I guess it was a case of looking at it too long. I'll definitely give the Rocks another go over, and I reckon it might be worth making one or two extra varieties, just to add some variation. All the rocks in the scene currently are scaled and… -
Re: *~Sirius Workshop~*
Alright back to work again . Before I complete my lowpoly , I need some recommendation Recently I had thought of removing the red triangle thingy because it may not make any difference in game . But without them , it looks abit empty in the showcase . In addition , the whole model is draining alot of polygon ( due to… -
Re: 3DS Max freeze while UVW editing
Hey, I had this problem before but it was during the first release with UVW Unwrap... It was a weird issue related to having 3 monitors. Even with 2 this would happen. Do you have more then 1 monitor? If so try setting it to clone. I had a similar issue also with a more recent release. This time it was related to an… -
Re: CryEd Basics
Bottle question: Depending on how close that bottle would be to the player and the general style you might get away with just a very glossy (but opaque) illum material. If it's close up you would want to go for the glass shader and either put the label on a floater or if its possible in the existing topo just give the…
