Re: Low poly fit Highpoly?
Not many people are going to recomend baking in ZB unless it's a displacement map. assuming you have a decent UV, and you set the low poly geometry distribution up so it can subdivide enough in the right places to capture the high poly detail (which is not quite something you would normally do with raycast projection… -
Re: Is there a Maya solution for baking alpha planes to texture
Blender does bakes AO and shadows that way, everything that's on the target surface itself. But there is no way it could see beyond. So with "Selected to Active" it doesn't work and thus it's pretty useless in Blender. Your empty normal pass for D part is showing it clearly. Arnold can bake alpha planes to low res… -
Re: Next Gen Character Development in Regards to Animation and Motion Capture.
Interesting topic, There is "LipService w/Lbrush" by Joe Alter for Max and Maya.

Here's a demo of LipService (Maya plugin version i think) [ame="… -
Re: 3ds Max/Zbrush: Proboolean + Dynamesh hardsurface workflow tutorial

First i think about how it'll be when rigged. Everything that would cause me to make weird loops and topology to follow its form will go into a separate object.… -
Re: Rocket Girls Walk
Narrative-wise, I'm gauging from the facial expression and the casual walking demeanor, that the character is on a duty but in a relaxed and almost carefree manner. If that's what you're going for, I think it expresses that fine. There's a number of avenues that you can pursue though if you want to create a more pronounced… -

Re: How to rig and animate cloth/hair in games??
Thanks a lot,guys. UPDATE: I tried the corrective blendshape with the model,encountered a lot of problems,then I realized the target model must be in the bindpose for it to work without problems.So I tweaked the shoulder area of the target model while observing how the tweak affects the rigged model in various… -
Re: Are games becoming boring?
It has not so much to do with "the games" or the "creators" than the expansion of the market to your average piece of shit consumer who also likes jersey shore, affliction clothing, and anything else that will help them blend into the mass consumer culture. When I was younger it was the kids that got beat up in high… -
