Re: Unlimited Detail... soon.
Even if this particular engine never ends up running a game, the principle of voxels taking over polygons is something that will happen sooner or later, id Software is already thinking about it ( http://www.pcper.com/reviews/Graphics-Cards/John-Carmack-id-Tech-6-Ray-Tracing-Consoles-Physics-and-more ), and as far as 3D… -
Re: Track AND Terrain
Passerby : That's an interesting function that maya have here, I wish 3DS had a similar one, but it doesn't solve the polygon flow problem near the road, like it is done on the screenshots. Because there will be some on road action, and some off road action. And terrain is the key for smooth gameplay transitions. If the… -
Re: ZBrush, Dynamesh, and Subdivisions, Where did they go?
To quote a famous scientist: "Good News Everyone!" There is now a better and simpler way to increase your polygon density in on a model in zbrush. If your working on a skull and want to add folds in the eye brow, for example, do the following: Duplicate the head subtool > select duplicate subtool > go to your lowest sub… -
Re: Art Test Critique
Usually when it comes to art tests like these, if they give you a pretty massive poly limit, as someone said earlier, they want to see how you use the polygons. In general, the way I do it is I'd model the object the same way I always would for a game, which would be a fair bit lower than 8k. After that, try to think about… -
Washing Machine Part
In an attempt to get better at Sub D and curved shapes I've been working on this washing machine part for a while and finally calling it done. It's done purely as a modelling exercise so it won't be baked or textured. It's my first time making a challenging shape like this so wanted to hear what you guys have to say. I'd… -
Re: Toolbag 2 is on Steam! | Marmoset Toolbag 2 | News & Announcements
Seconding Fabian... What is the function of "compute binormals in pixel shader" in xNormal? I understand that its different from just using mktt space since when baking using an obj mikkt tangent space is guaranteed but using that checkbox produces different results. Fabian to answer your 3rd question though, "Tangent… -
Re: Gender monkey warriors ( I need a better name)
hmm, is that a new model you made from scratch ? i ask because it looks like you took the body mesh i made for you and just attached your old head model and textured it. if that is what you did then i believe all my effort has been somewhat pointless. also, you keep failing to understand what we are talking about. too many… -
Are there similar tools in 3DS Max like in Blender?
Hello Polycount! I'm modelling Eivor's axe from AC Valhalla and I saw a video where a guy is making that axe in Blender. He is using a few tools which really makes thing easier but I'm using 3DS Max and I have no idea if there are tools that does the same things. Here's the… -
maya hotkey questions! (from 3ds max & SI user)
Hi There, I am trying to learn maya for future projects and I have some questions about the hotkeys I try to setup so hope you can help me out! First I must say that I am a 3ds max/Softimage user (in case you want to make reference I'll understand) Ok lets go then: 1) I noticed there is no "shift" option in the keyboard… -
Re: Selecting through objects in MODO
So I have to select a polygon face by selecting its edges and converting to polygons and not just by dragging the marquee over the polygon itself?
