im glad your getting that :P im trying to make the game as fun as possible. Games are so serious now and I just want something I can enjoy with friends. :D Having the art completed sooner has helped me a lot, but more because it gives me a break from the code (by code I mean blueprint :P coders forgive me). I like jumping…
Blueprint can be really powerful when you approach it from a programming perspective (ie: taking an OOP approach and making use of the interfaces and macros). One big problem there is that most people who use Blueprint are not going to be approaching it from a programming perspective. Those who would are more likely…
This isn't strictly art, mostly coding, but I've been fiddling with UI stuff recently. So, I'll go through these chronologically... First off was a sort of vertical tabstrip thing I made. There are a few more videos of this, at varying stages of development. Not really a lot of difference between them unless you know what…
I know the grind of wanting epic
renders without a studio-sized wallet. That’s why I built my own render farm,
piecing together custom nodes to crank out serious power without insane prices.
Pick a tier that fits your deadline and budget, from a handful of nodes for
small gigs to dozens for blazing-fast turnarounds. Thanks…
Another update for this week :) All images below are directly from Unreal Engine. Over the last couple of days I’ve been focusing heavily on refining details throughout the environment, especially terrain variation, material breakup, and overall cohesion. I’ve also been adjusting the horizon and surrounding landscape to…
1. ZBrush (PC or iPad) 2. Blender (can also be used as a note taking software, to write code and to watch videos) 3. Clip Studio Paint (or Procreate on iPad) 3. Unreal Engine (would also come with coding tools that would be useful) 5. Marmoset Toolbag Not Substance Painter as I personally think having a proper baker like…

Maya is not without its heaping helping of bugs. Your experience will also depend largely on which version of Maya you are using. I find 2013 to be the most stable, least buggy version so far, although I haven't really given the newer versions much of a chance since the service packs have been added (though I am growing…
Is it possible to sample a cubemap from a custom node? I want to be able to use texCUBElod to sample lower MIP levels of my cube maps. For a normal 2d texture I can simply create a Custom Texture node and connect it to the Custom node and use tex2D. However, when I set the texture in my Custom Texture node to a cubemap, I…
