Hi everyone, I'm having some issues when using GoZ with Max, so I decided to do some 'tests' to see if I could isolate any specific issues. Seems along the way I found a new one that I'm unable to solve. I created a very simple extruded shape in max. (just something to mess with) I sent it to Zbrush vian GoZ, all was well.…
Hi, I often came across this problem while doing diffuse + specular: how to keep both maps synchronized, after I made changes in one of them. This wasn't a great problem though, because most of the time I was OK with using Adjustment Layers (with simple masks) over a copy of diffuse group to get specular group. Now, in PBR…
Unfortunately, there really aren't any shortcuts to becoming a better artist. I wish there were because it would have saved me years of effort :P The best advice is to just keep. on. making. art. With time and intentional effort, you'll develop your artistic eye and your ability to make "appealing" design choices will…
Yeah Slosh may be brutally honest but he's right. Look at my folio for example : can't find an entry level job with that, unemployed for 3 years, had to start doing porn stuff as a freelance ^^. Well I guess it depends the country you live in, too. But I don't see anyone hiring you with that portfolio. Your best bet is to…
I don't really understand this part? Basically it sounds like you have the right idea - delete the geometry for the parts you want mirrored (as you showed in your first image), then unwrap all this remaining geometry. Surely once you have completed this, all you have to do is select the geometry to be mirrored, and…
Really stellar environment, loving everything I see here, from lighting to the materials. The set dressing is really effective as well, congratulations! I really want to emphasize how much I'm really loving this lighting, I can feel the warmth and the cozy vibe of a small village. I like how you controlled how dark the…
PC isn't the smaller market. It's been demonstrated in plenty of statistics time and time again, and usually those stats don't take into account a lot of the digital market. PC is a smaller market than 'console'. It is however a bigger market than any one console - that's a good thing to remember. Some games however just…
Just bought this script and I must say that my first impressions are really good. I do have a question about the best workflow when working with objects with large modifier stacks though: Collapsing them is often not an option, so I'm currently making a copy and collapsing that copy to use with this script. However, this…
Let me guess you have a Light-on DVD combo CDRW drive? Or maybe a HP drive? There are known issues with those drives not being able to read past the copy protection. OR you have an anti virus program running in the background normally AVG or Norton cause that kind of an issue. No one tells the nosey anti-virus the disk…
Most instances it's just pretentious BS about rotoscope or mocap being cheating. Even Glen Keane uses reference, himself to be specific. There're plenty of stories of him posing parts of his body, or making expressions, as he sketch over animators' shots during dailies. He doesn't use full video or photo references simply…
