Re: Augmented Reality Chestburster T-Shirt
Thanks guys! We had the same experience a year ago. But we have found it to be more of a hardware problem then a AR software problem. New devices like Galaxy 2 and up, ipad2 and up and iPhone4S is very stable and able. We use the antialiasing features of Unity that drops the performance on iPhone4 to about half the speed.… -
Re: [Portfolio Review] Help! I need to be better
If the lowpoly was for work I would watermark it in the corner with the logo of the game or product it was used for, this way people know it was professionally done. But it does come across as weak so you may want to remove it in the end anyways. But if you really wanted to keep it, write a little blurp so people know it… -
Re: How to bake normal map
You can just as well do your baking in Max rather than xnormal. Max has a good texture unwrapper with maximum control. It can choke on (much) bigger models but then for baking you only really need to UVW lowpoly ones. And you can use all the familiar tools and interface. 1. Islands dont affect your nmap in any way; just… -
Re: [Portfolio] Steve Cronin 3D Character and environment artist
Most of the images are small, and all of them seem to heavy quite heavy JPG compression. The terminal, for instance, could use a close up version of the screen part, as I'm guessing it's for a FPS and the player would walk up quite close to it. And the engineer sculpt has a 'close up' of the face which is not even 100… -
Re: VW Surf Bus
Hey! I've always loved this Volkswagen model. Just a couple of things which I think you could improve on: - The van and surfboard are quite low poly. There are a lot of places where adding extra geometry would help with how the silhouette reads, smoothing etc. This is important when doing lowpoly work for curved areas of… -
Re: Can we use Triangles in Game Props ??
Try working only using triangles. In particular, try selecting edge loops on a triangulated mesh. There's your answer. Regarding pictures a/b, this is less to do with triangles vs quads as it is general mesh optimisation. Generally speaking, an 'optimised' mesh will not have any unnecessary geometry that does not… -
Re: Fresh Meat: Needs a portfolio review
regarding presentation: you only need to display the actual tricount. don't worry about the other stats so much. the "making of" image for your creature render doesn't really belong in a portfolio. If you're going to show a maya viewport at least hide the grid and stats - it makes for a poor presentation. Same goes for the… -
Re: White Glint
Pictures would help... *still rendering the back shot Been pretty busy building a gaming rig for my little bro, took a hell of alot longer since he only had £200 xD. Haggling and alike got me £400's worth of parts (for £200). * Oh fuck you photo bucket, there contrast was spot on. Highpoly is pretty much done. Deleted most… -
Re: Emo/Punk Chick
Thanks for the comments! skylebones, JustinPunio,and Walrus - Thanks guys. IridionSnake - Thanks. The process for making the highpoly stuff isn't too complicated, you just have to put a lot of thought into the base mesh. For the boots, I modeled in most of the details in max, like the separate pieces of leather that make… -
Re: Please Critique My Portfolio
Your entire portfolio tells me a couple things. You don't have a single completed character in the entire portfolio. You don't know how to model feet. You don't know how to rig or model something that needs to be animated. (The "goddess" pose shows this.) Nothing is "every-day" stuff. I don't see any gear, clothing,…
