I had a look for what Johnny Raptor mentioned and found this which may be helpful..... http://books.google.co.uk/books?id=gszCU5xyJQQC&printsec=frontcover&dq=drawing+people Also check out Richard Smith's tutorial.... http://gnomonology.com/tutorial/343
I'll be the first to agree the slow motion stuff in 300 was great for absorbing the eye candy... Unfortunately, it was overdone. There's also a small section in this trailer where I'm certain he's at it again... Let's just hope he doesn't ruin this film by constantly doing it.
i'd assume they're building the top lod to be suitable for closeups. eg. 2-300% screensize I wouldn't be surprised to see car models in racing games approaching a million triangles by now. that's cheating though cos they don't get skinned
Fixed the knees and finished up with the character (minus the sword and sheath). Will start unwrapping once I got her weapons retopoed, and would be happy to hear any thoughts or suggestions in the meantime. Just made it under 30k with 29885 tris!
Yes, it is way too high. I'm guessing you just used an auto-topo solution. That boulder could probably be reduced by a factor of 20. As an example, the hero character from Uncharted 4 is only 30k. The cinematic version double that.
the orientation is just a modified cube in 0,0,0... isn't isometric a 30º for each side? why should I put the -35 and 45 in those axis? just trying to understand the formula so I can do the same for the other perspectives
It's yours for $300. http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1944625487/omni-move-naturally-in-your-favorite-game I don't like the idea of attempting to walk up the wall of a small sink for hours hours, with a ring wrapped around my waist.
If we end up doing a size limit, 400-500kb per image is definitely all that's needed (maybe 300-350kb). I don't think a single image on my folio is above 500kb and I've never heard a complaint.
edit: the max polys was 400 i beleive i was under 300. For the outline we were given three shapes and told to pick one of the shapes and then make a crate heres the wire aaaand texture maps (normal) (diffuse) (spec)
With this much advance, Roundtrip, I'm seeing around $300-$350 I'm waiting to hear back from some people on what their schedules and locations will be so I can finalize the flight times and can get the actual numbers... hmm
