Re: Art Test Questions!
I've freelanced for a number of years and have never been asked to do an art test for it. 99% of the time they go off your portfolio. Sometimes it's a one off thing, so doing an asset just so you can do another asset in the same style is silly. I would say it's not really the norm as far as indie freelance goes at all. The… -
Re: Rawk - Post any rocks you make here!
Hey thanks a lot ! You're right about the mask, it seems to be the best way to go. As for the retopo, since rocks are really organic, you only need to focus about silhouette. Usually you can use automatic decimation tools, Decimation Master in ZBrush, Pro Optimizer in Max, Mesh>Optimize in Maya, or use external software… -
Re: Sketchbook: David Cruz
Made for artstation challenge concept artists version is in there also, i think did alright for such a concept. the knee joint needs to be worked out, it could also just pass for some sort of rubber, since it will 99% of the time move with all the arms. The hat is my attempt at making it both a "jester" hat and paint… -
Re: Tooth Fairy Box Prop_WIP
1000 tris polluted around a map is still nothing in the grand scheme of things. Unless you have multiple instances of those 1000 polies floating around, say...10 1k poly waste, then maybe you have a point...but in the way things are rendered in 99% of current(next) gen engines, you're just being selfish. If you have… -
Re: Soul Calibur 2 animations - what's going on?
The same as in 99% of the games out there. The skeletons are mixable, hence why the mimic characters can use others animations. They are canned animations, but have small IK solvers for throws. Each character has basic grab points where other characters animations/skeletons connect to durring those lil IK solver anims.… -
Re: Ipod experts please help.
I got an insignia 2gb player and it works wonderously. Its 99$, has a decent sized screen and comes with offers for all sorts of free music. Available at Best Buy. Also it has a slot for a micro sd card so you can double the memory if you want. (ipod nano 1gb is 79 2 gb is about double that. Plus the Insigina plays video… -
Re: god of war III newness
Screw skin shaders when "it's 150% adrenaline testosterone violence directly into the balls at all times with no pacing variation." I think Arsh has their thinking down. Screw skin when we have nothing but dynamic lights and 60 fps. Though 60 fps versus 30 fps with some specular variation would be a bit nice. I am like 99%… -
Re: UDK for Ipad?
All you need is a Mac with one of the newer versions of Snow Leopard. You can apply as a developer and download the ios sdk + xcode.There you can test it in an emulated environment.To test if it really runs on the specific device you should own one though.But to get it on a real iDevice(or into the appstore) you have to… -
Re: Lightwave10 or Modo ?
I know this posting is about two months old but have you tried 3D Coat for Texture Painting. It has been working with our studio so far. Just figure out the workflow that fits you. We use Lightwave/Modo ->UV Layout ->3D Coat and then back to Lightwave/Modo ->then onward to game engine. Also try looking at Houdini $99 for… -
Re: Calculating space used by uv's
Yeah, I don't think i've ever actually calculated percentage of space used by UVs, personally... I just remember that histogram trick from a similar thread on polycount about 3 years ago. You could be using 99% of your image's space for UV layout and still have a crappy layout, similarly you could have a layout that uses…
