Re: Sketchbook: Martin "VertexBee" Punchev
This creature was made for Anthony Jones' amazing course. If you follow my blog you've probably remember the weird dragon sketches that I've posted some time ago, some animal drawings and studies too. All those were assignments for the course. I had really great time following his lectures and doing the homework, learn… -
Re: How to paint flow/anisotropic/comb maps in Photoshop.
You have the blue channel set to a constant value (127 or 128 ), so in the areas pointing zero red and zero green, it appears blue. The reason why is because you're dealing with a 3d vector that's flat in the depth plane, and because normals get expanded from 0..255 to -1..1. So the halfway point (127.5) is zero. -
Re: Digital Sketchbook: Kahlusha
Alright, my first hand painted texture... Just another stone tileable. I know it still needs much work, but I'm stuck on specifically how to improve it. 512 Texture (final will likely be 256): Tiled: I'm unhappy with how highlights look right now, but I'm happy with how the tiling is looking. -
Re: How to properly export heightmap from UDK Landscape for use in World Machine...
The only thing I can think of.. is to make sure that your image file is the same as the length and width of your landscape in verts. Usually its 1 less than normal image sizes.. for example 255x255. You can check to see how big your landscape is under the "landscape info" section in the landscape tool. It will say "Total… -
Re: Pony Plop's Workshop.
there is quite a lot of empty space there buddy, which explains why the renders work out really nice when the map isn't compressed to 256 like the dota one is, refer to this post from heboltz- notice how packed in everything seems to be/ the areas that get the most camera time in game get more space on the map, and the… -

Sorry but i dont think the p-250 was a weapon choice, nice weapon anyway. -
Re: Syncing files between desktop and laptop
I'm working on sorting this out myself both for my work PC and home laptop, and also with external vendors halfway across the world. Not a simple problem. Lots of people tell me rsync, or a commercial application of it like Syncrify. Something sorta cheap you might try that would be somewhat painless (though you still have… -
Re: Interesting Talk on the Death Of Consoles
I think I may have a miscommunicated the term "tablet" what I mean by tablets are ipads and android tablets, not pen enabled tablet PCs (is that what you are talking about? are those still being made?). From the Applestore cheapest macbook air is starting at $999 the new ipad $499, Googles upcoming Nexus tablet is rumored… -
Re: [MAYA] [Solved] Can't see object at a certain distance from the camera on the viewport
Adjust perspective camera near and far clipping plane parameters in attribute editor. The "pattern" is because clipping plane values are too far apart. Think it like what happens to gray scale gradient if the length of the gradient is longer than 256 px. -
Re: Tiling Textures?
I find it more helpful to work with a pixel to game unit ratio. 4 pixels to every game unit. If you have a wall that is 256x256 game units then you go with a 1024x1024 map. It gets a bit more complex for other objects but in general if you hold to the same rules you can work out a map size, of course you are normally…
