Oh my gosh! I'm so excited that this thread made the front page! Sadly I was not able to complete the character for the Challenge, but I will continue to work on him and refine everything until he's done. I will also continue to post as many breakdowns and tutorials as I can to spread some more knowledge around!…
Yeah I really don't think that will be the case. I think we're going to continue to see smaller and less expensive computers that are cheaper to build and cost less money, to compete with tablets and similar devices. For a lot of people these days owning a large desktop computer is simply overkill. There will continue to…
Played around with it for a few hours last night, pretty cool. I think the power of this is in the ability to create custom details and materials, not in the presets. The look of the presets are pretty obvious and it wont be long before most can call out textures that dont deviate from it. I imagine they'll continue to add…
I'm still messing around with this scene. going to start throwing it in to unreal tonight. I've been continuing to mess with lighting and have been slowly gaining more control over the spec.. I plan on adding in a user console in the center of the room to give some scale to everything. I want to take some finished shots of…
I think there's a decision to make whether we should continue waiting for Minto or try to reorganize the collaboration. It's quite obvious that this doesn't work. Minto hasn't been online for a month and regardless of if he's on vacation or not I think it would have been nice if he gave us a heads up. It's quite obvious…
I decided to continue banging on these textures. Started out by doing a litle research on how each map works out with each other. As well as finding a couple of texturing tutotirials. And kinda figure out wtf ive been doign wrong. Well, among other things i realized that my normals looked like shit. So i went back into xsi…
Matt actually raises a valid point, and i will probably end the event prematurely if that kind of thing continues. that said, part of the "charm" of the hangout is that it's kinda like a man cave thing where people can just say things without fear of feeling out of place. polycount as a community has a fixation with…
Keyser, there are other football games, some of which feature NFL players if you are that crazy about it being an NFL game. What about 2K Sport's new one? And it is still 100% freemarket driven. The NFL saw people buying EA Sports games, made a partnership with them because of this. Now people continue to buy EA Sports…
This is probably not possible, but let us see if there are more fluent users of Data Transfer modifier here. Goal: transfer the custom normal from this continuous piece onto these 2 split pieces You might not see it but the difference is normals on split pieces are not smooth like the continuous piece: I have some…
Hello there, been using Substance Designer for a while now at work. Started to do more stuff at home as well lately. Thought I'd show some of it from time to time. So here is a leaf generator I just "finished" Will continue working on it at some point but I think it can do enough for now. Those are some I quickly made with…
