Re: Any Advice or Tips to get into the Game Industry
THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE!! but seriously heed every bit of advice these people have given you.. when I got my first assignment from school it was to make a ball bounce... we never even looked at it. (That was the only assignment besides make a short animation. - my school sucked balls) Everything on this page is gold - let me… -
Re: [Portfolio] - Murry Lancashire
Hey man, the site works for me. But if you have a group of images, I think it would be better to have just one thumbnail for them all, instead of a separate thumbnails. The life drawing look very good, and the concept art is pretty nice. My main crit is with the 3d. I know your working on it, but the one animal; well tbh… -
Re: Any one got a tool to paint across 2 models in 3d space?
I was about to write a script sometime soon for TexTools that transfers camera maps back and forth between max and photoshop - so you could take a snapshot from any view and it would render or capture the viewport in the clipboard. Back in PS one could then paint over that perspective view. In max then finally the script… -
Re: So I got my new pc and I hate it.
did you buy a premade or build it yourself? My case came with rubber sound dampeners to prevent hard-drive vibration from being transfered into the case and it has 3x120mm fans that run at a lower voltage because larger fans running at lower voltage will push more air than smaller ones and also produce less noise. I… -
Re: Creating Normalmap in Mudbox
unwrap your low poly in maya, import it in to mudbox in the same file as your high poly, go into Utilities>Texture Baking>New Operation. In the new window, select your low poly mesh from Low Resolution Mesh drop down, it will say "Level: 0, faces: whatever". Select your sculpted mesh from the High Resolution Mesh drop… -
Re: East's mixed bag
Hands and arms are always interesting to sculpt. I kind of wish I had used some reference material because the tripceps are a bit messed up, among other things. I also forgot to turn on symmetry across X when fixing the left arm, so right now it looks better than the right arm. I wish Mudbox had a mirror/symmetry function… -
Re: I need help with hard surface piece ( part of lighter )
I usually just transfer vertex normals from a shape before holes. Works perfectly fine even for extremely low poly things , lods etc. Never understood really why people do all those support loops and extra geo puzzles. My guess it's because 3d soft had clunky normal editing tools before. Still the normal theft script in… -
Re: File formats for textures
That's not correct, TGA can optionally use RLE compression which is lossless, other than that it's uncompressed. PNG is also lossless. EXR gives you a few options including ZIP (same as PNG) so predominantly they're lossless. So quality wise you're not winning anything by choosing one over the other. The only differences… -
Re: Sketchbook: Stanislav Dudas
Day 168: Procedural Maltese house v1. Generally it's fine for first asset building, I still have gaps in UV's, as I am just learning I can't transfer it to Unreal or Unity for now, so I divided house to multiple meshes, painted in Substance and rendered in Blender cycles. Note: works like charm, but those UV's... need to… -
Re: Bioshock Infinite PBR Effects
Funny you mention that, as I was actually studying that very same blog post when going over all this yesterday. They said they setup their own PBR templates and while I'd love to use UE3 for keeping the engine build authentic, there is absolutely no way I could pull off what they did in terms of lighting. I'm still very…
