Re: Maya to Blender 2.8 learning curve. How steep is it ?
I switch a few month ago from 3ds max and all i can tell you is that it took me around 3 month to be back up to speed with every aspect of my production need in game development. Modeling is second to none in Blender and i thought 3ds max was fast but Blender coupled with a 3d mouse+ wacom and the paid addon pie menu… -
Re: Baking errors galore. PLEASE HELP ME.
You might be baking with different settings than what the 3D viewer is expecting. By that I mean there are a lot of different ways to bake and interpret normal maps and not every baker does it the same way and not every viewer is expecting the same results. One of the most common issues when baking in Maya is an inverted… -
Re: Drawing Order for Transparent Materials
Depth peeling is not only a "shader" effect but requires special passes in the engine, as you have to render all transparent objects many times. I have no idea about how much Unity would expose. And depth peeling is still not exactly post processing friendly, and things like deferred shading, depth of field all would need… -
Re: Summer Character Workshop - Illaoi Fanart
Thanks fearian! Thanks a lot for the tip for the thighs that actually helps a lot and I'll be able to adjust that. I'll also probably change the foot size too right now they do seem a bit more manly than anything. Also here is yesterday's work: Retopology time! Yesssssssssss.....T~T We were given the task to retopolgize… -
Re: Portfolio Critique (WIP)
My personal feedback would be: - Not a fan of the handwritten font. - The text (especially on the page "about") is really hard to read, that's because the text itself is light greyish on a white background + the font weight is really thin. (I noticed that on firefox the text is easier to read then in chrome, not sure why.)… -

I am still blocking out the thing in 3dsmax and continuously uploading into zbrush to check so I didn't start sculpt anything yet , I am… -
Re: chun li_first character_[WIP]
thanks again all! so i took into account all that's been said and played around for a few hours, i tried to get away form the 'tube' shaped thigh shape and style it more with better muscle definition. and played around with other areas still trying to rough out a good shape.. also lost a few polys i felt were unnecessary… -
Re: Difference from smothing groups vs weighted vertex normals.
Pros: - mostly easy to use and understand - provides perfect, smooth shading on the corners without a need to bake from a highpoly - provides nice shading on the flat faces/ hard surface objects, without a need to bake from a highpoly - bevels improve silhouette - its literally free - same vertex count as w smoothing… -
Re: The best way to make metal
There are so many types of metal, its hard to have one specific way to make it. But it almost always involves specularity of some kind. MoP and Eric have some great suggestions and you should follow them. It is also really important to nail down exactly what kind of metal it is your trying to make. What that metal is used… -
Re: High Poly Modeling Tools
You can do that example already using 3dsmax's Modifier Stack. The base object of the stack would be a simple mesh, your "layer 1", then you'd add an Edit Poly modifier as your "layer 2". In the Edit Poly modifier, you connect the edge rings to create the supporting edge loops. Now you can drop back down to the base…
