Re: ALL Game Engines Render WRONG
I remember being especially bothered by this playing the Total War games. Take a look a this screenshot; the building on the right shows nothing but contempt for how perspective actually works (and it's hard to find any screenshots of Rome Total War with buildings in it in which this isn't grating). Edit: part of the… -
Re: 629 S&W Stealth hunter (revolver)
Np man. You may want to reference resident gun modelling badass Earthquake's textures too, as far as level of contrast in the specular goes -- http://www.polycount.com/forum/showpost.php?p=902435&postcount=124 http://www.polycount.com/forum/showpost.php?p=818309&postcount=103 (he's rendering in marmoset though, results may… -
Re: "Softwheel" Hard Surface/ZBrush Exercise
@McGergs - Thanks glad you are liking it! @Huntard - Cool! I can throw together an image on the source meshes and what they turn into. Overall I havent had to crank the resolution or defer to Dynamesh Master to get better results. The base wheel with the poles coming out is sitting at a Dynamesh res of 112 @ 1.3 Mill… -
Re: 3D painting software
The way this sounds, I would love to get my hands on 3d coat or mudbox. unfortunately, both will not run on my computer at all. though zbrush will take a subtool to 1.3 mil with little problems on my aging machine.

Re: Portfolio Feedback - CartyArty.com
looks good, one thing that stressing me out a bit is the size of the preview image , or more the text. Makes it hard to read. Also the 2 gray backgrounds from the robot and substance hurt the frontpage and grey is never nice. Then that water on the coolant is very distracting and dosnt look right. Water IOR is 1.3 so try… -
Re: Help me to become a better 3D artist! :)
Looking good savior, I agree with a lot of critic being given I just finished something similar today that will probably help you with the lowpoly stuff. I'll pm you instead of high jacking your thread by posting work I've done. Snader: Everything is different in max I made something that was 175 (or so) verts but in unity… -
Re: How to set best occlusion in xnormal?
Hi there, Last time I wrote it down I was using this : Rays : 256 Distribution : Uniform Bias : 0.000010 Spread Angle : 175 Limit ray distance : off Attenuation : 1 ; 0 ; 0 Jitter, Ignore backface hits, Allow 100% occlusion : off Now this was a little while ago so things might have changed since then... I'd have to double… -
Re: Nvidia vs ATI
Yep, it's really crazy. The RAM modules here are very very expensive aswell. We bought 4GB Corsair DDR2 800mhz CL4 for 68 euro, and now, the same 4 gbs, are for 170 euros. And it's not DDR3. Here's an updated bench of the new Final Fantasy XIV. There's no doubt that for games, actual 5870 are better than nvidia. This is… -
Re: Polycount/Mapcore Xmas Party - Let's do it --- Frankfurt, GER
well there's always the "Mitfahrgelegenheit" (sharingpool). something like http://www.mitfahrgelegenheit.de/mitfahrzentrale/K%C3%B6ln/Frankfurt_Main.html?city_from=179&radius_from=0&city_to=97&radius_to=0&date=date&day=12&month=12&year=2009&tolerance=0& it's 12 euros per way and you'd probably need to ask some one living… -
