Re: Can you help track down "the story of a delivery boy" ?
Thumbs up for tracking them down. Illustrations are definitely cool alongside humorous anecdotes depicting a thankless task which I do recall feeling sorry for these dudes during those covid curfews when everyone was lockedown but they had to keep going as essential workers, imho pretty much then were unsung heroes. -
Re: [WIP] Bloodborne Env fanart
This is starting to turn out really nice looking! I know you're not completely done yet but one thing I think could make your scene more polished and alive feeling is more wear and tear and dirt buildup in the corners of buildings. Maybe some decals would do the trick! Maybe also some stain decals dripping down the walls… -
Re: How to properly texture buildings/interiors/architecture for video games?
Are you tiling textures? If not that's what you'll want to do; to be more exact modular pieces + likely trimsheets and maybe vertex blending to add variety, if not decals. You can start by reading the polycount wiki and the checking resources listed, then search those terms to learn more. Modular Environments Texture Atlas… -
Re: Vehicle texturing techniques
Hello! I guess vehicles would benefit a lot by using layered shader/texture. this would make painting decals, base metallic paint and gloss much easier. And i think why GTA IV have a lot of overlapping UVs its because they use different UV sets for each material. A good car paint shader can be a little complex, because its… -
Re: [UDK] - Hallway, portfolio project
I could add some dents/scratches, I think it was only thrown around, but the decal on the ground tells a different story indeed so I'm replacing that one with some bullet damage. But the decal is only projecting on the floor, not on the two panels beneath the PC which is strange..I could project it onto the pc tho btw,… -
Re: Rocket Diner_ Marcel Petras_WIP
Aight' after a while due to other projects little bit of progress. Container, done pretty much lazy job on the uvs and baking but its not even properly visible in the shadows anyway. ( spec is too bright on certain edges i guess) Here is the scene with Puddle decals reflecting the environment, also trying to add motion to… -
Re: Resource use expectations
Thanks! That was a wonderful brief! I'm considering the moving track texture approach. Many examples in portfolios and games still use that method. U said the tank should be more than 10000 tris (5000 quads). So I guess I should limit mysef to 15000 tris? As for decals, how do u think I should make them? A seperate flat… -
Re: To the artists who have achieved this
Congrats on landing that work! It took me about 2 years to get my first job, but I had the benefit of having studied in a dedicated 3D Animation course. I'm not sure that I would have stuck with it if I was learning on my own, to be honest. On that note - it can help to do a 3D animation course or something similar… -
Re: 3ds max user learning XSI
On the bottom section of the merge window that will appear when you run the command, you have to click those extra 'merge' buttons to tell XSI to also merge UV coordinates/materials and/or any shape animations/weights you might have on the models being merged. As for the image in the UV editor, you can go up to the Clips…
