its more or less impossible to reconstruct the file without a TD... you need to write a python script that will load all files based on the hier/json and assign the ptex textures... you also need to instace the foliage millions of times... and even if you manage to todo all that you need more than 88GB of ram to render the…
Started to learn retopo. Got via twitch channel from pixologic streams correct workflow for retopo and when it is needed and why and what cases and what are optional software's to use to do that. (way faster then getting help from forum some times) and often people are more nicer to you. Forums in other hand some times…
Hey Tehrobster2, I'm not really sure what you are going for here? Is this a sci fi crate with a wooden front or is there supposed to be metal behind the wood? I'm noticing parts of the texture are overlapping too, mainly the gaps between the wood on top of the crate seem to be overlapping the blue metal. The location and…
Yeah it's obviously not the best art in the world, but for a coder it's fine. Heck, I've seen people with worse stuff proclaim themselves character artists. Anyway, if I feel unsure about a pose, I generally go out and try to stand like it myself - then I adjust myself to what feels natural IRL and try to memorize where…
Hello Peter, Welcome to Polycount. Well there are tons of videos / tutorials out on the web that sometimes feels a little overwhelming and can lead to confusion because different artists develop different techniques to reach the same result. I can tell you from my method of learning 3ds max (and modeling in general since I…
So I just did a basic rig with 3ds Max's bones. I already had the spear ready and just imported it. Doing the renders in Marmoset was quicker than I thought. I also used for reference this post in Erika's Uni Blog to make the images for the portafolio.…
No, I forgot to change the brightness. I didn't even know you could do that in color.adobe.com, but it's possible. Changing brightness (so you have a cool dark end and a warm bright end), you can get this: But to get back on what you were talking about, when you ask "how to unify the temperature (or the physical location…
Research-research-research. Take as much as you can from real-life environments. Find a building you want to remake or be inspired by. When was it made? What is the architectural style? What is is known for? How is it decorated? What part of the hospital are you making? How to people get around in it? Etc...What happened…
Digging where this is going, sweet progress from the last time i saw it. I'd say A for the standing pose for sure if you are having the gun raised in the walking pose. It's too similar otherwise. My only crit on the walking pose would be maybe tense him up a little? He seems relaxed for a survivor type, even if you are…
Hi polycounters. I've been a long-time reader of the forums, and I've posted a few times in the past. I'm currently in a weird career limbo, and I'm trying to find a some direction and focus. My current situation is this: I got an animation degree in 2003, and then left it alone for a couple of years. In '05 I got lucky…
