Re: Am I stupid? (Serious qeustion) School stuff
yeah most of the AI schools and Multimedia classes are running anywhere from 75-105k now, it's f'ing ridiculous and nowhere near worth it. And an $80,000 loan doesnt mean that you pay 800 for 10 years, there's varying intrest rates for each and every loan as well, which would probably make it closer to 1000 for 18 or 20… -
Re: Warzone Environment
you dont/shouldnt build environments around props, they should be placed in the environment as suits the environment, although its not a one way process there should be some back and forth, deffinatly start with the environment, then once done or at least well on its way think about propping it out. too many environments… -
Re: High poly to Low poly workflow problem question
I don't know if you can do this in mudbox, you should be able to. But with zbrush the workflow is pretty simple, you can get any mesh into max without any problems. But you will need polygon cruncher or something similar. Take your mesh and export it into chunks of 300k-800k depending on what your pc can handle, you will… -
maxscript - opening local files
Hi guys, maxscript beginner here, I have a small dialog Ive created with a hyperlink. The purpose of the hyperlink is for the user to quickly access a help file. Currently I have the example below working. The issue is, that the hyperlink does not open the .docx file unless I close and re-run the maxscript. Im thinking I… -

Abnormalities in normal/AO map
I've been slowly and quite painfully learning how to UV and bake the weapon I made with the help of this site. And I think Ive finally almost nailed it. After the last failed attempt I deleted my low poly, remade one from the high poly. After I lowered the count I did the smoothing groups, essentially anything over about a… -
Re: logitech G402 mouse issue
Actually Pior, the look of the MX518 is more what I am after, reasonably expensive, but might have a go ( even the new one) I just realised that my amazon order for my Logitech G400s was from 2014 and it cost £37.99. It's on ebay now for £75. One company even charging £220 :) I am currently using a really cheap mouse a '… -
Re: Retopo vs Decimation Boulders for platform.
a few thoughts - for unreal, make sure the tangentspace of your baker is set to mikkt - for better baking inspection, turn off your sky in marmoset, create directional light with shadows off, which has the same orientation as the camera, link it to the camera. now you have the light always aw you need it, no more rotating,… -
Re: Using Unreal 4 as a renderer?
I use substance designer (which is awesome) but I thought that substance is only supported in Unity Pro? At least I haven't been able to get it to wor on the free version of Unity. Substance support is definitely something I want to be able to take advantage of, but there's no way I'm going to pay $1500 or $75 a month for… -
Re: next-next gen is terrifying?
Or it could mean more games like Uncharted, Gears, and Arkham City. I think we're going to do away with reactionary development methods, and be forced to be VERY VERY smart and efficient with it. I predict something similar to Pixar/Valve, where it seems like 75% of the development is spent in Pre-Production. Iterating…
