Re: Normal Map problem
Using SBM and meshsmooth is the way to go, turbosmooth is okay if your just previewing but as a final product it's not ideal imo < that's from personal experience though some people like it :/ ======================================================= This is my method with some instruction from Santiago Orgaz; 1.

Re: What Phone?
Ok, so after about a day of messing with the aria here are my thoughts: Good: 1. Very response, even with the 600mhz processor i've yet to find much that slows it down. 2. Android is awesome, and HTC's version of android seems to have an acceptable amount of bloatware. Sure there is a bunch of preloaded apps you cant… -
Re: Updated Environment Reel, need critiques!

looking for opinions on choosing art design/perspective
Hello everybody. I am looking for any opinions - just got one of those decisions to make without any clear answer and some extra opinions may be nice.

Re: What makes this scene obviously miniatures?

Both normal maps where blending with crazybump. I did some planning for the rock models and the terrain texture. I wanted them to… -
Re: Roman game assets based on scan

So I had to make assets as fast as I can, and worked out relativley fast ways to do it. Please let me know if i did anything dumb!… -
Re: A Practical Guide On Normal Mapping For Games
Great write-up on normal mapping. I've compared the doc to my own notes on this subject and found some topics that could be added to it/additionally covered, to get an even wider scope. 1. There was a lot of discussion on beveling lowpoly edges for the purpose of normal mapping. Some summary on beveling would be great:… -
Re: [WIP] Halo Reach - Heavy Machine Gun
You have a really damn solid base right now but imo you're just at the beginning of the texturing process (You've made the wrong barrel btw ;) ).
