Re: Creating a "level editor" inside of Max
I´m doing it with XML which is what the dotscene format uses, which can be loaded into ogre directly. I did my own xml format though. Lights and stuff can be handled like any other format you just have to define a value in xml which gets read as a light in max. For the collision mesh it would be probably easier to generate… -
Re: Kerrigan Starcraft 2 Fan Art
Spot on! ^^ Not only the nose though, I feel that you have given her a too sad look, overall her face have a softer look to it, feels like the slope above the eyes is too big compared to your reference, she looks a bit tired, and the mouth definately looks a bit too sad :] That being said, it looks great, just a bit too… -
Re: [Steep] Tech or method used to deform the snow ?
Please correct if wrong. The deformation itself is done in the vertex shader of the snow mesh. You sample the render target texture in there and then move the snow vertices down from their original position based on the colour that you sampled (the same colour that you're using to define steps on the render target). You… -
Re: Derivative Normal Maps - What are they?
Almost. A normal in a tangent space normal map defines a vector in tangent space, which is not the same thing as an offset from the vertex normal. A non mathematical way to think about it is: Red (X) denotes how much of the vertex tangent to use Green (Y) denotes how much of the vertex normal to use Blue (Z) denotes how… -
Re: Bone Portal
I don´t feel like I´m seeing all the sculpted detail in the textured version. You sculpted on the edges of the boxes and yet the textured boxes have hard defined edges so you might need to bevel some edges on your low poly. Did you bake an AO map? it looks a bit like you didn´t and it could help make things pop a bit :)… -
Re: [UE4] Watermill Cottage Environment
Only got a couple of hours this evening but got a thatch roof material a good way. Still a bit WIP think it needs more work to define the individual strands as at the moment doesn't read well with colour. Would really welcome some feedback on this material especially as it is still fairly simple and early stages. I was… -
Re: Benefits of modeling in Tris
I guess I'm not explaining my self here the point isn't to model your high poly in tris but your low poly. The high poly would be whatever you need to get the look you want and then bake it to the tri model. I am doing this research for an independent study class. What I am really after here is to find if it's definately… -
Re: Desmond Man - Environment/Hardsurface Modeller
@polygonfreak It was introduced but we weren't taught a proper pipeline/workflow... just how things were done on models and elaborations on top of those methods, i actually learnt most of my lowpoly knowledge from researching other games artists and first hand knowledge by friends on the course who probably did the same.… -
Re: Body Modelling - Male - Stafford Uni Assignment
I was thinking that, but this was the method we were taught, cause we were also warned alot of people last year didnt define the toes so there for lost marks :S , so its a bit confusing what do you reckon i should do? add more geometry to the foot or take some out the toes? cause i dont wanna lose marks but i dont want a… -
Re: [Zbrush] Is there a maintain form brush?
On the alpha pallette, try enabling "Surface" for maintaining the bigger forms of the sculpt more or less untouched. In the documents it's described like this: "The Surface button mode automatically defines the best middle gray value for your alpha. It allows you to add details from the alpha to your sculpt without…
