Pathetic questions. Please help.
Hello Polycount. I am pathetic. This is not my real account. I am trying to practice up my 3D so I can apply for a specific 3D game artist job that I'd really like. I have two problems, one is that I need to learn 3DS Max asap (I'm a Maya user primarily) (I am working on this by watching Eat3D tutorials). The other problem… -
Game Prop Workflow - Lightmaps & LODs
I am confused about how to make these two work together. I've watched tutorials about how to make LOD meshes by deleting geometry within the UV islands but none of these tutorials mentions the lightmap UVs. When I'm creating the LODs my lightmap UVs just become a broken mess. Am I missing something here? -
My latest Sci-Fi creation modeled in Maya and rendered with Redshift
Some images from a Modeling and Rendering tutorial I just finished. I kept the images small for the forum. You can find higher res shots here (Right Click > View Image): https://armoredcolony.com/projects/KazJvo Or if you're interested in the tutorial: https://armoredcolony.com/store/VR5y/3d-modeling-and-rendering-kitbash -

Re: Elevator that triggers up and down
Hourences has a really good (and easy to follow!) tutorial on interp actors and elevators: http://www.hourences.com/tutorials-ue3-interpactors/ Edit: Look at the 'Elevators - UT Style' section specifically. Really elegant way of doing it, and the elevator will be triggered by you stepping on, and wait at the top for you to… -
Re: ddo scratches repeating
It worked, it's no longer tiled... at least not so extreamly.... @Bek I just started with ddo2, it's very nice toll but i guess i will take some time to understand in fully... Are they any good tutorials out ? i found just one tutorial on youtube for the new quixel suite... -
Re: US Soldier [WIP]
thx guys! @programmer23 all methods that i used for sculpting beretta and mp5k you can find in "Sculpting an MP5-K in ZBrush 4" by Ryan Kingslien. Unfortunately, I did't find the original link to this tutorial, but i think you can find full tutorial on torrents. -
Re: I'm really into Stylized 3D Environment Art, but don't know where to begin with
Tyson Murphy's weapon tutorial is pretty 10/10. I'd also really recommend Tobias Koepp's stylized dungeon tutorial, it runs you through the whole pipeline and not just for assets but tileable materials and some scene layout/lighting parts too. I learned a lot from! -
Re: Student - Need help with normal maps!
Also, baking normal maps is a pretty common subject for tutorials- I believe the Polycount wiki article on it goes into some depth, for instance. Are you having trouble finding tutorials that help you understand normal maps conceptually, or is it that you can't find anything on how to do it in Sketchup? -
Re: 3D Max Speed Modeling- Sci-fi Assault Rifle
Agreed, the art you used as reference had more detailed shapes then the model you made. You do have the dedication to model so I would advise to follow some tutorials, the one posted above seems really good Im going to try that tutorial as well.
