Re: Does anyone here use a tablet for all their 3d work. Looking for suggestions
Well, this is not a binary thing. 3D work being painful for the wrists is not because of the mouse itself ; it is because of some of the awful user interaction paradigms used by some 3D programs, namely the reliance on precisely clicking on pixel-wide screen elements and having to hold down left or right click (or even… -
Re: lowpoly mini Mass Effect scene
Thanks again to all those who commented. Yeah I've heard a lot of people mention 3D printed figures, a tactics/turn based RPG game, and a LOT of requests for papercraft stuff. I'm still kinda debating whether I should just give out the models. People might see all my ugly little mistakes, lol! And I might just be worrying… -
Re: Games you want to be released.
New: Cartoony Doom sequel (doom 3 is not doom, lets face it, real doom has that fun toony pixel art style and is loaded with armies of monsters, it is not survival horror). New: Final fantasy 1 rebooted, modern final fantasies are so far away from the series basic roots. New: F-zero but not based on GX, F-Zero gx lost… -
Re: Tablet PC recommendations
Yes, the S7S is pressure sensitive using a wacom digitizer. It has 256 levels of pressure sensitivity and supposedly can go up to 512 if you have a pen that supports it (intuos/cintiq pens will not work on this). The pen that comes with the S7S only has one side button and I personally prefer having two buttons. I would… -
Re: 3DS Max TF2 modeling help
That is a pretty broad question with a lot of techniques not only do you need to nail old and worn but you need to nail the TF2 style. That often comes through in the modeling and in the textures. Depending on what the objects are made out of there are quite a few techniques that can be applied. For the most part TF2… -
Re: Sketchbook: Spacey
Thanks guys. As for process, it's a lot of fumbling around screaming at the monitor. Not to say other people don't, but I tend to take my time when doing these studies, anywhere from 2 - 5 hours, sometimes longer? (or rather, however much time is needed to learn what I'm trying to learn from a particular study). I usually… -
Re: First full-featured 3d-modeling software for Android tablets
To unwrap manually (but really, use a PC unwrapping tool, I came up with this method because there is no PC around for me atm) : - make a copy of the original model and try to explode it in rows of faces using the command detach (necessary when objects are curved to avoid deformations of the faces). - Selecting the whole… -
Re: Carmack leaves Id
I have a somewhat different point of view on this one; in my opinion, Carmack has two main strengths. One is to find new and sometimes quite disruptive rendering technology. He usually gets these ideas by absorbing an incredible amount of information from seriously varied sources; from siggraph research papers to airplane… -
Re: Some questions about low & high poly game prop development
You seem a bit confused here, first off for organic modeling(characters etc) the standard workflow isnt model lowpoly then high, its: A. Model clean evenly spaced quad based cage mesh for sculpting B. Sculpt/Model high C. Retopo for low D. UV low and bake For hard surface/props a similar workflow is usually used: A.… -
Re: (Portfolio)cb!/Charlie Williams -Environment Artist
OK this pisses me off. Why the hell do you have artificial loading time spinny things? Not cool. After waiting for a useless color shifting wallpaper I went to the Portfolio page, which loads for few seconds for FOUR SMALL IMAGES. Then I went to the first image, again loading while there's only a bunch of tiny images. I…
