Re: Monthly Noob Challenge 4
I don't know if this was said, I like the vines a lot, but your texture usage could be halved if you used a tileable for the vines made a tilable for the pillar, you could even re-use it on other parts of the the scene and then just use unique normals+spec in the same map for some variation. Also a more natural vine… -
Re: My daily 3D modeling sketchbook.
I saw a pretty good explanation of a Silent Hill style transition material so I was inspired to try that out myself. The article in question is here: http://dp3dblog.tumblr.com/post/26742825968/thoughts-on-texture-transition-fx But I did a change to it where I did an Add operation of the rock texture on top of the… -
Re: PETROL/BLOOD - Q&A
I had a couple of questions: Is using existing companies vis-a-vis manufacturers/sponsors okay, or should we make our own? (I was thinking of using Fairchild) Also, I'm sure this has been answered ad-naseum, but I just wanted to make sure that like in the Vertex fighting game contest that effects also count towards our… -

Dopiero wlasne funkcje i FX-Mapy moga byc problemem dla typowego goscia od teksturowania. Ale masz tyle podstawowych nodow udostepnionych przez Allegorythmic ze zanim dojdziesz do wlasych… -
Re: 5 reasons why the (AAA) game industry is about to crash
This is a good point. I do not believe the industry is crashing, however there are just waves of people that learn how destructive the system is. I actually think development will become further removed. I think outsourcing will become a bigger thing, much like FX is done for movies. Outsourcing studios will place bids for… -
Re: XoliulShader 2 and 3DS MAX 2013
Thank you for your reply. It doesn't just "not find" the cubemaps, even if I point it where the cubemaps are, it gives me an error. But thats just the tip of the iceberg. After installation, I did a search for "xoliul" in the 3ds max directory and it didn't find ANYTHING. No fx files, no scripts, nothing. However, inside… -

Just needed about a week of watching and using the formerly available PLE version to familiariaze myself with the basics and general workflow. Tip for anybody self teaching is just ignore… -
Re: Should I learn to code? :(
Will coding help me make more usable and well-designed environment art? yes it will, Knowing scripting in max/maya can help you setup scenes and debug them much faster. knowing scripting inside of unreal/unity will help you create fx (rain/snow/storms) in your scenes which will help you create better art. visual scripting…
