Re: Summer Character Workshop - Illaoi Fanart
Hey guys just wanted to drop another update! This week is all about finalizing our sculpts and making sure we have all the detail we will need before we begin retpologizing. I always enjoy this part of the process because it allows you to really throw some asymmetry and some personality into the character. I adjusted some… -
Re: What Game artist career is more difficult?
Disagree here in general. Environment art can be easy if you're taking any one little part of it by itself. "Hey, I can make a door!" But it's a tremendously broad field. Some environment artists have to do tons of different tasks. Some aspects take meticulous planning such as building a skyscraper out of modular pieces.… -
Re: HL2 Pistol remake
Yar you're right on the post FX, won't do that again. Just came across it in marmoset so figured I'd use it this one time. Thanks, I'll see if I can make the normal map a bit more obvious in photoshop. Polycount is sitting at 2491 at the moment, but I haven't optimized it yet. Since it's the viewport model I'm still gonna… -
Re: Is the blade too big for Valve?
Both Valve and artist parties have made things that's either irregular colors/proportions and have gone past the design principles, even got those mentioned irregularities accepted. Valve by all means have the right to do whatever suits them, a few artists dare to be spontaneous and make unique stuff that;s irregular.… -
Re: Legend of Grimrock
Hey guys, it's me AlmostHumanJuho but I forgot my password and didn't bother to dig it up so I use here my "background lurker" alias. Big milestone for Legend of Grimrock and for our small studio Almost Human. Just couple of days ago we announced the public beta of LoG Dungeon Editor! :poly136: Woohoo! You can start… -
Re: Zbrush 4r2 Wacom sensitivity problem?
I've noticed this loss of pressure sensitivity some times, and i came to the conclusion that it is caused by applications running in backgrouns ( usually those in the system tray ). This is more common when we have anti virus installed they do scan in background and alerts may appear at any time resulting in lost of… -
Re: Environmental Effects HELP
Animated materials can be classed as an effect - if you mean, a plane with an animated material on it to produce an effect, then yes, it doesn't have to be a particle system. But not all animated materials are effects. Aside from weather, there's a lot. Speaking from an FX point of view, its stuff like: Atmospherics… -
Re: Once again, ATI Radeon Maya fail.
It's all a ploy to get us to invest in Quadro/FireGL cards... You know, the exact same hardware just with properly written drivers :) I have a ton of issues with any of the latest drivers for my 5870. I've run into the UV editor, but also the viewport in general took forever just to select a mesh. My "fix" was to… -
Re: Crappy Christmas for games...
Yeah, I'm afraid I have to stay with the Pessimistic camp. It's not really that I think the industry is doing bad, it's just that everything is bad and we're not immune to it. And I really don't see anything improving in 2011, especially not in the US. So yeah, it's probably a good idea for MS/Sony to hold off on the… -
Re: Steampunk Soldier WIP.
Well, the background is based on the steampunk principles as in there is no petroleum or silicon based technology, everything is ran on steam, coal etc. Although it's a technology that was developed and imporved over 300 years after which 100 year old global conflict pretty much destroyed most of the earth and drained most…
