Re: My fiance and baby boy got hit by a car today....
Wow, gee man, stupidity like that reminds me of when I got hit and almost ended my flying career. Glad to hear your wife and son is doing well, and hope everything is alright. The stupid bitch that hit me hit me when I was standing half way out of the door of my car in a car park when she came to park behind me and hit the… -
Re: Better/Best sketching program
ancient system? athlon's/pentiums 1,6 - 3 ghz. my own ps5.5, which offers no smoothing, is much more responsive, even on far slower systems below the 800mhz mark. it was so bad that i sold off my then brand new photoshop cs and it seems cs2 has only made it worse. the question should maybe be if you only tested performance… -
Re: 3d action game development
Okay I haven't reached next milestone but learned quite a bit in last week. Initially I was turned off by Unreals viewport tools so decided to do level blockout in maya instead. It is definitely feels a lot faster because you have many QOL things like isolate select, invert selections, full suite of modeling tools,… -
Re: The cost of a texture "draw call"? (Quantity vs Resolution)
Big thanks, that clears up a lot of missing pieces! My car example was more with a RTS in mind or so, for a racing game you will definitely use isolated materials With vertex colors you could also get the perfect cuts tho if you planned the geo for that Im a bit confused by the sentence above, it sounds like one texture… -
Re: Minienvs and studies sketchbook
Added some filler props recycled from my prev. minienv. I'm still not convinced i'm doing everything right with reflections.. the glossiness channel gamma seems to match between substance and unity (but i'm not 100% sure) , but what's worrying is how bright is the spec color equivalent to metalness = 0 (checking channels… -
Re: Autodesk Maya help! Trying to build an animated texture rig
You can either use expressions or connect attribute nodes directly. Maya is all node based, so just because something is a geometry or NURBS node doesn't mean it can't be fed into a shader node. If you select a polygon or NURBS object in your main window and open the Hypershade window, and select Graph > Input and Output… -
Re: Bin Laden Dead?
i really didn't want to get into this, but this shit is disgusting.. my grandfather is native american, was raised on a reservation and i take offense to this, this country has done nothing to honor native americans, unless you count fencing them in isolated dirt patches with no water, FBI randomly raiding reservations and… -
Re: Need suggestion for Artist to get into AAA game industry (I got 3 options in my head)
Thx for your kind words and suggestion Jacque! Appreciate all links too! And yes my portfolio isn't ready, and thats why I had decide to quit my full time job and focus on pushing my art to the blizzard direction. It may sound silly and risky but I'm feeling the urge to put 110% to climb the AAA mountain asap. But I Can't… -
Re: [UE4] 2048 Environment
Envie Thanks for the comment, you're the first person to tear into my environment and actually give me critical feedback, so I really appreciate it! I agree completely with most of your points, especially on the textures. I have 3 other assignments that I have to get finished, so I won't be able to make any changes soon,… -
Re: Monthly Community Noob Challenge November 2013 (13)
McFearson: I like your textures so far but I think the ground texture of the structure should be less looking like stones, more like cracked earth. Take a look at RockGuys or Guessmyname's on the previous page, they both have nice looking textures going on for it. You may even be able to improve it by adding some more…
