Re: Kiss bye (rookie sculpter)
@ Dan! thanks for the crit yeah, you're right, i created basic mistakes on creating the model. i should throw more edges on joints while making basic mesh to make it more friendly while rigging. At first i want to make female char wearing solid spacesuit, but due to limit of time and lack of technique (this is my first… -

Cylindrical shapes normal map baking, newbie problems
I'm a newbie trying to learn normal map baking, I'm using Maya 2008 and for the most part it's going well except when I try to bake cylinder type shapes. I've been using Ben Mathis's normal map workflow http://www.poopinmymouth.com/tutorial/normal_workflow_2.htm to help me but I still can't seem to get the same results as… -
Re: Should I Learn Blender or Modo
Modo doesn't have modifiers. It's around a principle once done, it's done. Blender is more like 3ds max. A lot of live stacked modifiers.

Re: Is blender really going to take over Maya?

ShaderFX had been born around same time and so much simpler to use before Autodesk bought it and turned into non stop puzzle same as their creation graph . I am… -

Re: UT2004 Weapon placement problem
Well, you're a bit farther along than I am in some ways. My mesh is already linked to a skeleton and animated. And the way my 3D suite (3dmax) works, you can't scale up the mesh and skeleton and the same time. And if you try to scale up one or the other - well, let's just say the results aren't pretty. So only option would… -
Re: What's the most efficient modeling workflow?
Probably a thousand different threads on workflows and techniques, normally they do not touch from start to finish, but just in the wiki itself there is a great knife tutorial made by a fellow polycounter that goes over his workflow in 3DSMX from modeling from concept to textured asset ready for engine. Tutorials on… -
