Seeking portfolio critique and career advice
Hello guys, I am new to the forums and I will try to keep this short as I have quite a number of questions to ask and pieces to post. Will really appreciate any advice you guys have :smile: I have been job hunting just over 2 months (in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia) and there has been a decent amount of 3D jobs in both games and… -
1.5 PREVIEW AVAILALBE NOW (Updated October 14)
Hey guys! Time to try something new! We're rolling out the new build in about a week, but since you are so active in the forums I wanted to give you some early access. A few surprise features are still to come -- this preview will however introduce a number of significant improvements: * MASSIVE speed improvements * Much… -
Re: 3D Modeling: NEW PC Configuration
I'd first go and check if the Ryzen platform is now mature or if it's still misbehaving and crashing and doing weird stuff in idle like a few weeks ago when it was released? From what I've read there's a risk you might be in for a PC modder experience at this point: trying a new firmware, Bios setting or driver version… -
Re: How to do Layered Materials in Unreal engine 4 UE4
Layered materials are actually just material functions, which are blended with other material functions, and by doing that (combining them) you create a new material. Actually, you don't need to set up different materials ids (you can, but its not necessary for the material layers to work). I usually do this when working… -
Re: Nävis: mission to TRI-JJ 768
I really like the overall anatomical foundation you're having on her. But, some more or less minor crits: - The tibialis anterior muscle on her shin doesn't cover the tibia medially that much. Here are some examples I cropped from photos. Overpainted one with info, desaturated and adjusted brightness and contrast to pop… -
Re: Why no AO in albedo?
Cole hit the nail on the head, but I think its important to give a practical example as well. Go into your kitchen, and look under your fridge. Its dark under there, right? This is because the light source is occluded. Now, go grab a flash light and shine it under the fridge. The previously occluded area is now illuminated… -
Re: Derivative Normal Maps - What are they?
>I think supporting Max or Maya would be much more productive. I understand how you might feel that way but it doesn't really address the underlying issues though. For instance you wanna leave all the people who bake using xNormal and Unity hanging? And even if we did agree to use their implementation of tangent space… -
Re: Indie Game Pre-Production Help
1. Formulate a high level concept of the game, this is essentially a presentation that defines the game to anyone who is interested, its essentially a pitch. But its also used to keep everyone focused on the same game. 2. Begin to get all your development pipeline in order, what engine? what source control? build process?… -
Re: Pink Crocosaur WiP
I'm not a 3D artist and would say I have little experience with the technical side of a 3D character workflow, but I have a few questions/critiques related to this. Hopefully I've been hanging around here long enough to make sense. I feel like his overall body shape/design turned out feeling quite a bit different from your… -
Re: "They Don't Want You"
For the most part I think Stefan is right, the numbers really do speak the loudest to the people at the top. I think the majority do care about what kind of product they produce, its just as much a reputation issue as it is a financial incentive but that doesn't mean that all ideas get in or are compatible with mitigating…
