Re: voxel cone-tracing GI discussion
You will have to elaborate on that AMD voxel stuff then. On the topic of dynamic GI 'removing artistic control', I would say its the opposite. The enhanced workflow from rapid iteration alone would only make everything look better. Plus, given that you would effectively have access to cheap realtime area lights (And if you… -
Re: Texturing Seems Help
Some observation from my school of hard knocks. The overall UV mapping is good however based on the model the mapping of the torso is not symmetrical. The left side is not the same as the right.

Re: quake 3 character 1st work ever

Reconstructing the ZBrush Wax shader
Since the nVidia shader contest was extended, I thought I'd try my hand on remaking the ZBrush wax shader that everyone loves oh-so-much (I just switched back to zbrush from mudbox and wow is it awesome). First I just want to get the surface properties right for a sphere before I move onto complex surfaces and all the… -
