Re: Car for Portfolio specs o.O
Like always, IT DEPENDS Just google around, see what game developers blog about and get inspired. Just today for example:* Blur showed some of their deformation debugging stuff http://www.gametrailers.com/video/bizarre-creations-blur/62635 (1:10 for example, they seem to use some kind of array of dots or sphere volumes to… -
Re: help me understand bevels and baking
The answer depends totally on style, workflow, and engine restrictions. Stylistically you may want real bevels, but at a point they may not render very pretty and thin triangles are not performant anyways (two consequences of the same basic problem: you're rasterizing). Workflow-wise you may want to make heavy use of… -
Re: The Monthly 'Newb' CHARACTER Challenge | August 2014 | Tilda / Mech
@DenO: Thanks. I like how your character is coming along. Love the compression folds. @thepapercut: Only you can determine what the effort is worth. I would recommend making a simple character like a Minecraft character. It is very important to get some mileage on the whole process. New programmers sometimes try making an… -
Re: [UE4] Forest Path
Lots of interesting things, maybe some of these ideas could help: - cards on ur conifer trees are super obvious, consider cutting them up and arranging the texture differently to make a more volumnous cluster - small broken branches on trunk look super jenky, maybe consider some geo around the connecting point to create a… -
Re: Lighthouse project - help out a relative beginner with modeling best practices?
Here's an update. I've been working on this whenever I can in the last few months! What's changed from last time? - I decided to go with a more handpainted texture style, because I found that was keeping my interest more. - I realized that I needed to break up the texture and export things separately. The wall texture is… -
Re: BIG update to my portfolio need critiques
1. The foliage in this level is suffering a bit. It was honestly my first attempt at foliage. Im going to redo the trees and make some grass that animates(dont know how to use wind in unreal but I am willing to learn) also going to make some flower decals that could be placed any were 2. The sky box in this needs to pan… -
Re: The N word
Well it like this, women sometimes call themselves bitch or girl, and if you don't know them very well and you are dumb enough to do so then you pay the price. If you are white or look white and you call a black man a nigger there is a huge chance you'll get your butt handed to you, simple as that. The reason English that… -
Re: Need help! - Very rusty at doing animation
The animator's survival kit, great book. They will have to pry it from my cold dead hands... Walks are hard, especially if you are trying to be sublime with your performance. Loosen this guy up- overexaggerate everything first and then trim back if you have too. Translate the body down a tad so you can get more distance… -
Re: Artists personalities...Hughs is cool, he typical?
John, your viewpoint, does seem somewhat lacking in actual knowledge of what diagnosed depression means. Which actually can be very dangerous as far as offering advice. You mention how people react when you bring it up. The probelm is your offering this solution without recognizing that everyones is a individual both… -
Re: New Environment render
Nice environment, poor execution.* Add an AO pass (you said you did, but I can't tell). Most games coming out use AO as a post process so I wouldn't worry about if its feasible in games or not. * Your pixel density is inconsistent. For instance, the light post wood texture is much blurrier than that garbage bag directly…
