Re: Fresh Meat: Needs a portfolio review
The 2D section is the nicest, imo. I'm not sure what you mean by 'working', all sections are presented pretty much the same way. Your 2D stuff show me you have a good understanding of form and the first piece a nice touch for color. No proper color theory, but fun feel overall. That feeling doesn't translate to your 3D. I… -
Re: Normal maps and smoothing group woes
Well, if I understood correctly, I think you got a problem. If you are baking your normals in ZBrush using a mesh with more loops than the final low poly mesh, even though the uv's may be the same, the map will not work correctly. See, normal maps are not like any other map that are just visual information applied to the… -
Re: mall massacre
One last poke before I get back to work. I like how people outside the US rave about their countries low gun crimes and tout that their society is far superior because they don't have a use for guns, they've some how progressed far above the need. Lets level the playing field a bit, what would happen if the gun laws that… -
Re: Gamma... Linear.. WTF?! RAGE
As far as UE4 goes, and the other programs that game artists generally use, you shouldn't have to worry about working in any particular color space. Stick to your current one, which should be sRGB. Let the renderer do the conversions for you. One issue you'll come across with UE4 and color spaces is the fact that UE4(and… -
Re: Goth Chun Li
brome: she's got white makeup on her face, on her torso is bare skin, and of course she's wearing some sort of panty hose. crylar, i agree with you--you could continue to tweak it, and that would work out well, but it would also be a good idea to move on, do another model. especially if it's another female model, so you… -
Re: DS 3dviewer
Alright this is what I have so far. 1. First thing I did was to try out an obj that works well in 3D exploration, and loaded it in V3. I got the same result as before, a black silhouette. 2. Then I textedited the obj to have all the tags just like yours, and tried again, same result. However if I load your sphere or ball,… -
Re: Simplest way to create specular map
I tend to work on all my maps at once. If you think that the method of creating a specular map is to copy it from a "finished" diffuse map and tweak it, then you're probably wasting a lot of time - since the way specular can affect the look of diffuse really means you should work on both at the same time (along with gloss,… -
Re: Education Advice( how not to become a hobo)
I actually went to your school and i truly know what a horrible shithole the town is. (It even smells like one. They have some factory shit going on) and they dont even have a goddamn bar... or well.. they have one but that place is gnrgh. I don´t really think there is a right and wrong answer here though. 1) Stay in the… -
Re: Character Art Intern - Vigil Games, Austin TX
hello, I sent an application a little over a week ago to the jobs@vigil email address but haven't heard anything back from them. Would it be appropriate to send another application To Treston, as a more direct means, or would he have gotten my application anyways. I really, really want this position.. but also don't want… -
Re: thoughts on Linux?
also keep in mind that some windows apps work on linux using Wine. It's really easy to use, just check winehq.org to see how well your application works, if it works at all, and how to proceed, and feel free to maybe even add a test result yourself if you want For instance Zbrush is working really quite well :…
