"They also use proximity LOD (level of detail). basically If you're far away from an object (like the top of the building when you're on the ground) the engine loads in very small resolution textures, like 512x512. As you get closer, the engine calculates your distance from the object and at various points, the engine…
It will depend on a lot of things - mostly your personal preferences and project demands. What you are describing is a very rough basic approach (very typical for how schools teach it) and for sure it makes sense, but the questions rather start in the details. First thing - do you need to make a 2d concept? Because outside…
I use MODO for modeling and UVing prop assets for game engine use. Scripts 1-5 improve general usability/UI. 6-7 are a part of my modeling workflow. 8-10 are a part of my UVing workflow. * Eterea Snapping Bar – Cristobal Vila http://community.thefoundry.co.uk/discussion/topic.aspx?f=119&t=80869 I dock this at the bottom of…

To get used to the way humans toplogogy should be, I went ahead to make this model using those key edge loops around the eyes, nose and mouth, even though this is not going to be animated. The key loops were always in my…

I had little to no intention of making it very dynamic or interactive, however I would want it playable at a…
Hello all, this is my first post here and it features a level I designed for Uebergame called Pazifik Watertown. It is inspired by an old custom map I made for the game FarCry 1, where I piled a lot of wood cabins on poles on the water, which turned out to be a nice small deathmatch map. I chose to do it as a contrast to…

Hi! My name is Marc Vives Dalmau, I'm a 3D environment artist and I wanted to share how I made a procedural house generator inside Houdini, in case it may be useful for somebody. I've been integrating this software to my workflow since summer 2021 and I'm very happy with the results. Hope you like it :) 1. References and…
