Re: post your pets!
Kub, that's rough, I've had to do that with 2 dogs and a cat. Left "Danger", he'll climb anything loves being outside but we mostly keep him indoors. He likes to play "jump up and slap your head" if you're sitting on the couch, you almost always hear him coming... He's a bit of an asshat, if polycount was a cat it would be… -
Re: Apocalypse survivor character [WIP]
If you're not doing a hi-rez sculpt I think it's a bit unnecessary to go into individual hair detail. If you're going with a semi-lowpoly handpainted/stylised look, this is fine. Rather, I'd just advise you to try and avoid this sort of smudgy-smeary look you're getting here with the eyebrow corners and eyelashes. Are you… -
Re: Photogrammetry with a Smartphone
Yeah, doing depth from normal map is very wrong. As of laser scanners they can't do so detailed mesh Photoscan can. Not even close. My recent Photoscan model was around 800 mil polys per a few meters of a surface. In my experience photogrammetry based materials works so-so with Substance Designer/Painter. Both softs are… -
Re: MFA degree for teaching?
You certainly don't need a Masters if you're teaching part-time, which they call Adjunct here. The colleges tend to be looking for active professionals who can come in and teach a few night and/or occasional day courses. There are definitely more tech art classes happening. Rigging is probably the most prevalent, though… -
Re: lowpoly smoothing groups
The muzzle cylinders are not really 'errors'. Those are just cases where you should have quite a bit more geometry to describe that shape if you want them to look a bit more accurate. At least double the amount of sides on those cylinders. The edges you have highlighted are also not really errors. Those edges correlate… -
Re: Materials Mentorship WIP Thread for September
Hey Everyone! Some progress from earlier today. I went ahead and followed up with @Jack M. crits and used nanomesh to create the tiles. I'm currently creating a rough version that would be used for blending so I'm not too worried about tiling issues. The color is still in early development but Josh and I talked about how… -
Re: Decent IPS monitor
Last time I read about it any game engine or 3d software were non color aware applications. Support only basic gamma adjustment. No color recalculations for extra saturation of wider gamut monitors. So having wide gamut monitor in its native mode definitely means oversaturated colors in games and 3d soft. I.e. you would… -
Re: Evil minion
@Mik2121 I see your pointt about the chainmail! My initial thought was to make the chainmail separately (like I did) and then move it into place later with soft selection. Unfortunately it got more deformed and streched that I expected so I kept it quite straight since I didn't know any better way at that time. I didn't… -
Re: Xoliul 2.0 Skin Shader Stuff
looking cool... i think that your specular falloff (glossiness) is set too low giving the skin a nice soft, but unrealistic look, im guessing the skin is at max all over (no map) but the max value looks like it should be your base value when multiplied by a map. as has been said darker skin has higher glossiness... i have… -
Re: Become more efficient: Free or nearly free app's & websites to help us do our jobs...
Does anybody knows of a good tool to make my way quicker to specific folders? I mean, I guess a lot of us has that problem... You edit a texture in photoshop, thgen you have to import it in Unity, then in substance, then bake another in Xnormal, then tweak something on the model in max and then in zbrush, and back to…
