Re: Yiynova MSP19U: watch out Cintiq its comming for you
I've got one of the older MSP19s, and I do love it. I've used it pretty much daily for about a year now, mostly for zBrush (I don't paint or draw with it much). I kind of bought it on a gamble. From reading what wacom says, you'd think that no one else is capable of producing a decent tablet, so I was expecting something a… -
Re: Gran Turismo 1 car model specs
Yeah those shadows are definitely a simple octagon. And I wouldn't be surprised if the reflection texture was a single screenspace one instead of a cubemap. But if you're just emulating the style, yeah stick to about 500 tris and a 256² with a simple cubemap in engine. -
Re: Why is everyone using massive PNG files for their shots?
Yeah, I think this is the sort of thing that is not really possible to change by simple moderation or haranguing the community. Instead, this forum should have a feature where the server figures out whether the images that are linked take up more than 1mb and if they do it stores them on Polycount servers as 500kb JPEGs,… -
Re: Snafubar - First crack at hand painting
I'm in my third year at AAU and I haven't had much beef other than the cost being silly, and that we must pay a lab fee for each course held in a computer lab. I'd rather opt out of that fee and be denied entrance to the non-classroom labs than pay for something I never use. It's what -- $400 per course? this semester… -
Re: Litte Red Raiding Hood
Hey Biomag, I think your modeling and texturing work are excellent! I think the lighting, especially turning on shadow casting, can go a long way with your presentation. The hood / face are really suffering and they look emissive without shadows. Also I think you should tweak the color values of some of the materials. For… -
Re: Brigador
Reading the interview with the Brigador developers over on Kotaku, I've got to agree with all your points, RyanB. If I could add one more point: Do not quit your day job before releasing your first game. I just cringe when I read stuff like the developer living off of family members for half a decade because he didn't… -
Re: New ZBrush @ZBrush Summit
Finally! My 32gb will finally be put to use! Time to create a sphere with 50,000,000,000,000 polys. Think of the detail ;) -
Re: Modo or even Silo ?
@WarrenMarhall It does perfectly capable of handling smoothing groups,since version 501.Not sure which version you last tried.It doesn't have smoothing groups tab like in max but hey it works. @Wentzel There's boolean and drill tools in modo,booleans are not a useful practice for hi-poly modelings but sometimes it comes… -
Re: Warhammer 40k- Landraider
I agree 20k is a reasonable polycount these days, most next gen real time renderers can handle alot of polygons (possibly more then you would need:P) its the texture size and advanced material/lighting effects that really cause the significant slowdowns. That said I think its optimised pretty much as good as it could be… -
Re: Battlebots!
I want this to turn into a serious sport. Imagine putting in F1 budgets into a bot with world class engineers. Maybe in the multi ton class...like a 50ton tank with a spinning disk on top would be pretty rad. Perhaps not realistic though, to spend that kind of money on something that will surely get destroyed.
