Re: Optimization in a Static World
Based on what you've said, I think you're totally headed in the right direction. One thing I'm definitely curious about is the limited colour palette approach, as I'm not certain how you could get memory savings by restricting your colours in texture. I know back in ye olden tymes it was a hardware restriction where the… -
Re: Ipad and pen
not ipad i know, but i'm using the Samsung Galaxy Note. the pen is wacom designed and has 128 levels of pressure sensitivity. i've done some research, and it works the same way as wacom tablets, with the drawing surface (in this case the phone screen) detecting where the pen tip is, and the pen itself calculating the… -
Re: Frustrated hobbyist with Dynamesh issues
Dynamesh will not work with masks. You really don't have to bother with geo when you have a decent level of ground work done, choose half res in Zremesher (or experiment with values) and use subdivisions then. As said you can move the low subdivisions around and the go back to the higher ones. Subdivision will give a way… -
Re: Concept to environment: Wasteland Waystation
Yes, yes, no. I'd use alpha for the speaker cover, and for the wire on the back (so it would just need maybe 6 triangles) I'd probably separate the alpha'd pieces though, so something like a 512² for the main part, and a 128² with alpha. You could also make a slightly bigger alphasheet, and combine other props on it, maybe… -

Do people still create trees like this?
Hi, I am a beginner teaching myself how to use Maya and create game environments/ architectural visualisations. I've been trying to find a way that I can create low poly trees to use in my work, but I am struggling to find the best way to do this.

Light Map horrible shadows
Light map density. I've made all my light maps with even padding, no overlapping or inverted faces. I made sure the light map density is even throughout the entire scene before exporting. These shadows were a result of having what I figured to be too low light map res. Like around 128. So I bumped everything up so the… -
Texture aspect ratio
Hi all , so this question has been bothering me for quite a while. dunno how to put it. hmm :D ok so lets say you have a M4 rifle model, you make it lets say 512 length and 128 high in UDK units (lets suppose :D , i know its too big size for a rifle in UDK) you unwrap and texture it in 1024x1024 size. Result look sharp and… -
3dsmax Viewport displaying textures all wrong
Left, my viewport, right a render how it SHOULD look. I changed literally no settings, installed nothing, and suddenly today my viewports are displaying textures all wrong. Above is some DF pxel art for dwarves I brought in since is illustrates my problem perfectly, I've never seen this happen before and I have no idea how…
