Soclab no longer lists ORB on their site and the URL returns a 404, somehow I don't think they're going to work on it anymore... I'll try to get some UVs on the model and see if I can convince Doom 3 to use texture colors (it can do material colors but I'm not sure about textures). Problem is the radio-baked mesh is really…
I think PDF's are somewhat slow, but maybe i should upgrade my reader. They're not slow enough for me to ignore the benefits. I've been given concept docs for games in Word format, and couldn't open the file correctly no matter how a tried. Many teachers have difficulty transfering their class assignments to school…
I've seen very convincing spherical harmonics solutions to bake perVertex coefficients storing the light transfer of subsurface scattering. It runs without any problem on any recent gpu and could probably be used in modern games. Anyone that has the directX SDK installed can check it on the demos (even with dx9).…
Env files save vertex weights if the vertices have been baked/adjusted by hand. For verts that are just 'enveloped' and haven't been adjusted by hand, their vert weight is not saved out (it is, on the target mesh, affected by envelopes again). The bone envelopes are also saved and loaded but this is mostly useless for…
[ QUOTE ] Though I guess I probably should take it easy or something, because this is my last week living here, because I'm transfering away from this dissappointment of a school. But I wanted my last week here to be somewhat enjoyable, not cleaning up the house. [/ QUOTE ] Ok so the anger has build up, I can understand…
You have to declair your assets as foriegn national. the U.S. and canada like to keep their money circulating within the local economy as much as possible. It isn't illegal to transfer large sums of money offshore, but there are tax implications, limits and procedures to consider. An example of this is capital gains tax.…
Xoliul That's actually quite chilling to tell you the truth, how could one not research what they are purchasing when they cost so much or if they were topics of interest? Also wouldn't one seek out games that were of the best quailtiy or research what is good or not . That was excusable back in 90's when you could rent…
First progress of the face after having unwrapped the final 3DSMax model and transfered it into mudbox. After originally transferring the original model from 3DSMax to mudbox there were several issues around the skirt so that area had to be recreated more simply and with a flat plain rather then pulled out plains for the…
Still haven't heard anything regarding Terminal Reality art test since last Wednesday but was offered an entry level position in Dallas at a vfx company doing some render wrangling so I'll be packing it up and moving out to Dallas this weekend. :) Hopefully, if things work out I can get my foot in the door somewhere. :) At…
I use Maya LT 2016 and Quixel 2.0. Once I have applied different coloured materials to my object, how do I bake these colours to a map (as mentioned in the Quixel Manual)? My usual workflow is: * use Hypershade to manually Select Objects With Material * manually change their vertex colour with the Paint Vertex Color Tool *…
