Re: Alien Environment [CE3]
You should make your texture (for the most part) how it would ideally like it to look in game. Don't make your textures too dark, but rather tone down the diffuse color in the material. If you look at the stuff in the ce3 Forest map that comes with the SDK, you'll see that they all use the illum shader and most of the… -
Re: (3Ds Max) Mirrored Normal Map issues from ingame mesh
Hello guys! It's been quite a while since I last opened up that model to face the normal-map problem. I recognized that even if I set a completely FLAT Normal map-texture (that is, having just R=128, G=128, B=255), which has no details at all, there are also seams visible - so I think that it is not a problem with the… -
Re: [Modo] Twinbow II (WIP)
Thanks for the feedback! I am using modo and it does have a bevel feature, however it doesn't seem to work for the wheel because of the topology, ie all the lines that I've used to make it not an ngon. Also I will update the image in the first post as I forgot to turn a piece to be visible, as soon as Imgur stops being… -
Re: weird issue [noob here]
Hey there, As has been mentioned, you need to add an Alpha Channel to your UV sheet and do some editing on that Alpha Channel. Values from white to black control how much the weapon wears. Values around 196 in the alpha channel subtract from the refinishable areas of the weapon. Values in the 128-255 interval have no… -

Re: Need a second opinion for a computer build
Hi, Here is my humble opinion. - 700 W alim is probably overkill ? A decent 500W is enough for an i5 2500k + 560 gtx. - The video card looks poor. I hardly see how you could play games and use 3dsmax with a fanless gddr3 50$ video card :s . - Proc is good but why not i5 2500 (2500k if you want to overclock it) ? I think… -
Re: [Dillema] CrazyBump epic win, max, xnormal fail??
Short answer: Not all normal maps are the same. Every render engine is a little different requiring slightly different maps. Longer answer: (Anyone feel free to correct me if I'm off) The different color channels RGB mean different things to different rendering engines. Each channel pushes pixels one way or another. A… -
Re: Loan forgiveness programs
Kwakkie: Its simple. College courses can cost a ridiculous amount. Where I'm at is presently charging $575 a credit hour (plus fees etc), most classes are 3-5 credits, and you need 120ish credits for an average Bachelors. So yeah, my final semester (finishing in June) cost about 12 grand. The Academy of Art in SF where I… -

It will be available for the US Forces as part of the Armoured Warfare Doctrine. In a short video we want to show you how the Paladin does it's job ingame, we hope…
