Re: live sketching in Vancouver concerts
thanks Warhamster (that name brings up some epic mental images) I love vibing off the sounds of live music, and the crowds at these shows are always vibrant and colorful. Only problem is the lighting conditions suck most of the time so you've gotta fake it. Once at Richards on Richards they had a dude on an elevated… -
Re: High poly modeling question (for normal maps)
Thats good to hear. It makes the most sense, and I haven't had problems rendering normal maps from geometry in seperate parts like this before. I thought I remember reading on several occasions that seamless models are preferred for normal map rendering, for example, on Epic's job openning page for high res modeler they… -
Re: Fitting Quixel Mixer into Game Modeling Workflow?
Upcoming Quixel Mixer 2020 will be having support for custom meshes and full 3D painting tools, so wait for that. Keep using Mixer, to get to know its tools better though. (; Read more from here. It was pretty big news from a couple of weeks ago, and you've missed it badly if you're questioning about Mixer now:… -
Re: Kickstarter for Amalur?
I would certainly chip in, but I think considering on how people around the 'higher offices' said something like "LOL, we know how to fix this, here is more cash, minus 3/4 of it which will deposited in funds to make up in long term" it kinda make me think it might not be possible. On the other hand, maybe Epic can buy it… -
Re: Tropes in Videogames
Just watched the first one, gonna watch the rest later, but just had to comment real quick. Cause a couple of weeks ago I went on an epic rant to my brother about Forgetting Sarah Marshal saying the exact same things in that video! I've noticed that too. And then sure enough, right after that movie, Yes Man comes on with… -
Re: Monthly Noob Challenge 7 Concept Thread
Alright, so I went through and tried to tally as accurately as possible... this could be slightly off because some of the posts are a bit vague. I also pretty much ignored the ones I was sure didn't have enough votes. I got: Wall: 8 Subway: 6 River Shack: 5 Bar: 4 And then a bunch with 3, like the Seashell, Epic Games… -
Re: [UE4] Blackout Police Station
Thanks for the kind words :) Got motivated to do some more with this project after work, so I'm trying out different structural meshes (and I've learned a thing or two from an awesome lighting artist here in Newcastle), as a major crit of this environment was a lack of focal point: (minimal postprocessing atm) (I wish Epic… -
Re: Tears of Steel
IMO Ryswick has it more-or-less. I think they're trying to reach whatever remnant in the AI is recogniseable as human (the girl) and reason with it by replaying the encounter that turned her, and alter the outcome. That's why they have the different lines of dialogue on the chalkboard, and they remark on the guy's… -
Re: UE4-Dynamic indirect shadows?
Lionhead Studios were working hard on revamping UE4's LPV. I had a lot of hopes going for it, but once Microsoft killed Fable Legends and shut down the studio, that killed any excitement I had left for real time GI. I recall an Epic employee once said on the Unreal forums they integrated the last of Lionhead's tech into… -
Re: Animation and rendering questions in Unreal 4.
Epic just released 4.12, which now has Sequencer fully integrated. This is a full-fledged video-editing/director toolkit. I haven't tried it yet but it looks fantastic. It pretty much replaces the older Matinee tools. Character animation is very straightforward these days in UE. In fact also in 4.12 is the ability to…
