Re: Is it possible to use multi-tile textures in UDK?
1: yes, rather than try and fit them into one material, you can simply apply multiple materials to the object in maya (select faces and then apply the material to them), and then export/import again and where you normally apply the material to a mesh in UDK there will now be more slots...and each slot can have its OWN… -
Re: The Human body
http://i1182.photobucket.com/albums/x456/Tom_Elgon/Untitled-1-6_zps8dc8a3b0.jpg There are a couple of things I reckon you should change to make this mesh a good candidate for Zbrush. 1. The edges travelling up the back make a dogleg above the buttocks. It would be much better if the lines of edges flow in straighter lines… -
Re: Specs update for DELL XPS 9100 / OS
I am planning to update the Ram mem to about 16-24gb, update the gpu and buy another storage possibly SSD to speed up the system. Hopefully it isnt vender locked in. (That was my main concern.) This is the motherboard As for the VMs; VBox is good because you can run different VMs but the disadvantage of it is you cant run… -
Re: Slice - Seamless Texture Generator
I would like to say thank you for all reviews you mailed to me, your opinion really matters. Also want to thank to the Polycount admins for placing Slice in the news section :) . "Looks like it's $35.00. Windows only." - Yes, that's correct. "The main download is actually a trial. Seems quite glitchy TBH." - Of course it… -

Re: Spark of Re-imagination
good point about the ground pipes not matching up with the style of the ceiling pipes. I'll have a play around with some more uniform spiral patterns around the base to counter it and see if i can get it more inline with what's going on in the center and the top. As for the lava, i feel the red is just about right… -
Re: Drugs
I wasn't going to post in here for fear of having my name forever bound to being a weed-head in this industry, but I`ve gotten to a point where I don't care anymore. This is actually something I feel needs to be discussed within the realm of game-dev. If an employer is going to get butt hurt because they don't want their… -

Re: Help a beginner in 3D game art
I kinda laughed when I read this. I am sure back in 1985, someone played Mario Brothers and said, to make a character all you need to know how to do is use Red, Tan & Brown. In today's games I would say characters tend to use any and all materials, I tip my hat to a talented character artist, cause anyone can make a… -
Re: Questions/confirmations for 3ds Max and Maya
1) In 3dsMax, you can set the number of height, width and length segments of every object. Sometimes its easier to edit a low poly mesh that has turbosmooth applied because editing a bunch of verts can be a nightmare at times. 2-4) meh? use nurbs if thats what you want. Are you looking for smoothing group info? I don't…
