In the catagory Best Picture: Babel The Departed Letters from Iwo Jima Little Miss Sunshine The Queen I loved 'The Departed'. After seeing it I was hoping for it to be nomiated. As well I think it's time to award Martin Scorsese his first Oscar....A miracle he didn't get one earlier. In the catagory Achievement…
Well, it seems that FEAR multiplayer has been re-named to "FEAR Combat" and is being released as a free download. I'm a fan of the game, but never have really played the multiplayer. I always thought that the singleplayer was the main selling point of the game anyways.. http://www.fearfans.com/newsitems/103/…
I'm having a bit of a problem with baking a normal map of an object. LowPolyCylinder is just a simple 18 sided cylinder, no modifications. HighPolyCylinder is a 48 sided cylinder with both the top and bottom edges chamfered 1.3 with 3 segments. I've tried to bake HighPolyCylinder onto LowPolyCylinder (I unwrapped…
hello, i'm having trouble downloading/loading images when i'm on my web browser (chrome/firefox). 80% of the time images load fine, but the rest of the time i get images that look like this (broken image icon) (weird noise) im also having trouble downloading big files (for example i couldn't download the recent quixel…
Hiya! I'm having some serious quixel app issues. 3Do does not display the materials at all. Its just a chrome/fully reflective material. I'm left with using cross-app mode. After getting it to work correctly 1/2 times, I've tried to reopen a project, and its completely broken. This morning the beta period expired, and I…
i usually give wood an IOR in octane between 1.5 and 1.8 depending on what state its in. Really, most stuff you're gonna make, like plastics/concrete/leather/rubber will have an IOR between 1.3 and 2ish. 3+ are metals. Chrome will be around the max in octane of 8. Something less reflective like silver would be around a 4.…
Just got the mischievous ricky gervais eyes. Anyway some people don't like to acknowledge it, but realism is the standard by which we judge something to be good or bad. That armor you made would look more impressive on a realistic looking figure. Just grab some reference from a site like this for example, sculpt a more…
Just FYI, if you're in the US or western Europe, $130 a day is a really low rate. The answer to your issue is to work smarter not harder. Break down your workflow and see where most of the time is going. Log how much time you spend doing each task. Then, look into how you can cut that time down, where you can automate…
hey kmactastic, thanks for the feedback :) generelly I want to have more topology (and more texture space) on her upper body than on the lower, because of the Cameraperspective. Ingame most hands are so tiny that you can barely tell if they are boxy or not, exspecally with the black outline they would get ingame, but since…
I think it can depend on exactly what kind of 3D you do. This type of extreme "crunch" seems to only happen at AAA studios where your job is to create 138 different assets for a single level. You're a very specific cog in the machine at that point. On the other hand I know 3D modellers who work for large UI/UX design…
