Re: Oil Barrel - AAA Prop
You have to start to learn how to break down these materials and experiment on your own. Experimenting, messing around with your maps, and just trying stuff is the best way to learn. You are not going to get all the information you need from the internet. Unfortunately I do not have time to make you another example, but… -
Re: 3ds max - Auto Separate Mesh Into Material IDs?
![TorQue[MoD]](https://us.v-cdn.net/5021068/uploads/userpics/978/n9Y8GE4KMHMJB.jpg)
From what I've read about optimization, that doesn't make sense. If you have a single mesh at 100K polys with 1 material, vs a single mesh at 100K polys with 5 materials, the one with 5 cost 5x more to render. At least that's what I've read on these very forums. If you break that mesh into 5 pieces, it's still 100K polys,… -
Re: Looking to potentially subscribe to a 3D magazine. Any pointers?
I'm in my second year down at Brighton :p I have been reading 3d World for a while now and I love it. I used to subscribe to MiniWorld and MiniMag as well (mini related, suprisingly) until my car went into the garage and I ran out of money! Yes there s the internet and yes there are PDF versions or whatever for the… -
Re: How can I model this handle?
First of all, there was no need to open a new thread for this, and secondly, this question simply was not solved by the concept artist. It's up to you, and you have gotten at least two suggestions on how this could look in the other thread. A third would for example be a more gradual approach with the cuts starting thin… -
Re: Learning Diary - Zbrush Sculpting for Characters and Creatures.
Hey guys, I want to share with you the personal project I'm currently working on. My idea for this project is to create a stylized game ready character, kinda similar to the dwarf I did previously, but this time I want to expand in the complexity of the character, but not only that I plan on creating a small action scene… -
Re: What made you feel good today?
Her & (prob hubby or Bf) made a 3 in one console design i feel will be ... "inspired" to replicate in alternative system builds. Its pretty neat though the whole design so if you haven't heard nor seen here is the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FAIqzpbv9Xw Instead of someone else receiving the views, "promoting… -
Re: Cabin in the woods (without the woods)
This looks fantastic! =) I do agree with the others though, at the moment it reads a bit more like a barn than a cabin. The details are really strong, especially the vegetation growing up the planks and the aged, damaged roof. Those elements work beautifully and add a lot of character. -
Re: Oblivion xbox360
it's alright. nothing to get upset about. time is money in the business of making games to look at. more and more companies can use speedtree if they want. the games they make will have trees that all look alike. by alike, i mean, that they all came from the same program. one day we'll have a program that makes shotguns,… -
Re: Combat Shot
the pacing feels good so far, and the "flow" feels good too. I'd include the sword's actions in the blockout, it's too integral to the action and it's hard to read what's happening when the sword stays in the same hand all the time. If one doesn't know the sword is being thrown and caught, they would be totally confused.… -
Getting started in VFX
Hey everyone, I'm entering my last year of school and am super interested in getting into VFX and things for games. I was searching for a good place to start by following a few youtube tutorials, reading up on the Unreal Cascade docs, etc., and I'm looking for a bit more direction. But I wanted to ask, where did most of…
