Re: Exactly how bad are tri's?
I see what you're saying, but I got into Zbrush because I have a sculpting background...so it was natural for me to begin working in that format with at least moderate results. Now I'm going back and seeing that there is a lot of other things I need to get the basics down on. The UV Master plugin on Zbrush just seemed like… -
Re: Beastie Character [WIP]
You've done a fantastic amount of detail in Maya--a little too much in my opinion. I would suggest for your next project you just make a simple base mesh in Maya and export it into Zbrush to create all the detail there instead of slugging through it in Maya. Zbrush excels at the intricate and elaborate. You'll find that in… -

Re: (Solved) How to make 2x1 (2048x1024) texture ?
Make your UVs NON-Squared (1:2 oder 2:1). After laying out your NON-Squared UVs, stretch the NON-UV Layout to full 0-1 UV Space. So that you have stretched UVs. I import then to Substance Painter and Bake. After exporting your Bakes you can make them in Photoshop 50% in Height or Width and you have your non-stretched… -
Re: Quick And Dirty Tutorial - Random Star Technique to Hide Seams
Haha! That's cool as hell man! Thanks so much for that! :D I totally wish I would have known about this back when I was still doing pixel art heavily! This would have saved me a LOT of grief! I'm not sure how much a diagonal line I could make at lower resolutions, but at moderate-res, which was the majority of work I did,… -
Re: CryEngine or Unity?
I've been working with Unity- with one project or another for about 4 years now. It has it's quirks like any other engine. The biggest win with Unity is the asset store. There is an ocean of free to moderately priced extensions that would cost you an arm and a leg to have someone code for you. Hopefully the UE4 store will… -
Re: Boss Key Games Shuts Down
Yep, he tries to make another one. Bam! Our general rule on bans is if a particular member merits a complaint in the moderator chat more than a couple times, then they're not worth keeping around. Tidal Blast came up a lot, with unfavorable ratings all around. He's also made duplicate accounts just for trolling. ArtSplash… -
Re: Bin Laden Dead?
Glad he's dead but worshipable grave or not, my guess is terrorism will get even worse now he is a martyr for other religious lunatics and "moderate" muslims. Oh yeah, that reminds me, I'm sure in the 4 supposed years he was there he never once popped out to the shops for a new towel, or just walked his pitbull and caught… -
Re: getting fat doing games art
I think shrew has excellent point. Cutting out junk food and doing mild to moderate exercise will do just fine for most people. It's not stressful and these habits will keep you up and running for pretty much the rest of your life. Cutting out meals, having 12 bowel movements a day and doing harsh diet programs sounds too…
