yeah that Thread has been super nice to look at! i have looked at mercy's maps and genji's and they are closer to what i'm doing currently, i was originally gonna go the route they did with D.va but i noticed I have more uv shells and so i followed mercy's and genji's uv layout instead. and yeah decals break up the…
This is a curiosity of mine, do you always retopo and optmize ( number and resolution of textures) your meshes that you are going to render regardless of the final goal ( portfolio work, fan art etc)? I'll give you an example: in my case some time I receive videos requests of doing fan art of something like a weapon of a…
Here is what I have, I feel like I should have more. My boyfriend worked on the game but hes a character artist so all he has are pictures of dudes. Best thing to do is play the game :D Sorry its only from one angle :/ I should have taken more pics when I had the chance. Oh and just for fun facts, do you know where they…
Hi everyone! I'm a developer for OctoShark Studios and I'd love to share/promote a hilariously good time! The studio works for free for the love of the game and community! As an environmental artist for the team, I am very proud of what our developers and testers have created for the public to enjoy. Our first game is...…
Sadly it had nothing to do with the game. Vancouver fans -- ACTUAL HOCKEY FANS -- are used to disappointment. We get agitated, drunk, leave lots of trash, yell a lot and then all go home. Somewhere, one drunk punches another drunk once and they both fall over. That's about as eventful as it gets. These were riots by a…
different interpretations ARE fun but I really wanted this to be the one that showed Transformers for what it was. But its just taken too many creative freedoms. The chance for Transformers G1 to be represented was right now but because they are changing it, the chance is practically lost and thats why people are pissed.…
#1 best way to convince investors to give you money to fund your game project: Show yourself online in a video talking about the mansion you're going to buy the second you get funding. I was SHOCKED to see that there are actually people working with this asshat. Still, it's great fun to watch. G4 needs to get this show…
I've opened a fur textures page and uploaded about 70 images, both seamless and standard, to get it started. Some of them might be useful for other things, like carpets, rugs, etc. Some also have funky weaves so I included them for fun. You'll find them here: http://soundimage.org/txr-fur/
I'm sorry I missed this discussion when it was started a decade ago, and I'm sorry that the links above are broken, but I'll add my comments now for the record. I published a paper about pie menus in the proceedings of 1988 ACM SIGCHI conference called “An Empirical Comparison of Pie vs. Linear Menus”, in which we measured…
Currently I'm making an animation rig for a merfolk character but I'm having trouble with getting the tail fin to flow with the IK Sine Curve I made for the torso and tail. For the tail fin I'm using nHair to help simulate how fish fins would flop and flow with the rest of the tail. Currently I keyed an offset for the Sine…
