"In social psychology, shyness (also called diffidence) is the feeling of apprehension, lack of comfort, or awkwardness experienced when a person is in proximity to, approaching, or being approached by other people, especially in new situations or with unfamiliar people." Its the crippling apprehension and anxiety that… -
Re: SIGGRAPH (how to approach it as a mostly-non graphics engineer)
Or you can get your company to pay for it ;) It really is just a huge experience to take in. For me at least, my head just came back swimming with ideas and wanting to jump back into work. It's a full week of being surrounded with incredibly talented and driven people in all areas of computer animation and digital effects.… -

Re: Distortion Map: Heat Haze???
Hey thanks for all the replies guys, I really appreciate it. Yeah, I figured it depended so much on the shader and engine that it would be difficult to find a straight answer. Basically my client has me focused on making guns and stuff, but every now and then has me do really technical stuff, and basically anything else… -
Re: Ambient Occlusion help
I believe different engines will have various ways to integrate a separate AO map into your material. I think there are some exotic Max shaders out there that have separate AO slots as well as a bunch of other nifty stuff. Though I don't have much experience with them, I usually just try to get my objects into whatever… -
Re: Gnomon workshop (dec 1st-2nd)

Re: StarWars Episode 3: Revenge of the Sith
Asherr. Episode 5 and 6 where not done by Lucas exclusively. So history shows us that Lucas is not the best always in the directing chair (especially Eps 5). Also note that both of those where co written as well! If it hadnt been for the success of these, your precious pre-equals would have never existed. So any comments… -
Re: [UE4] A.Vlaskin's Pirate Lair
It's a nice piece of work so far Texelion, some awesome critiques going on here to, I wish I had some of this critique in my thread :3 The godrays could be done with geometry instead of blueprints/FX (alpha shape etc...). If you're going to take multiple shots of an environment then you're going to want some nice refined… -
Re: Tile Sample Color pattern sorting?
@poopipe I believe I've looked into every possibility with the tile sampler color. Distribution map effects the position of the inputs but not the sorting, so you get a similar result to my first image above. Results are the same regardless of how many input images I have. In my test here there are 3, but in my actual…
