Re: [Wip] 30 days, 30 heads Feedback please?
Day 3, let’s go! I’m really tired today, so I’ll be a bit quicker. I looked around for stylised refs and couldn’t find much in my stash, but I stumbled upon this beautiful official concept for Jinx/Powder in Arcane, I thought it’d be the perfect candidate since this reference sheet is so pretty and nicely made. This time… -
Re: Modeling with Quads for Game Asset?
You're simply in that weird state where you already know quite a bit of technical things, are being influenced by a highly specific tool that is not "standard practice" (HardOps) ... while also lacking experience to get some perspective on things. A few things : • A HardOps/Boxcutter model can look fantastic, but it will… -
Re: [Max] Several questions concerning modeling edicate
Well..you will want AO and Normal maps on a surface that you are attempting to portray an illusion of depth on....The normal map tells whatever rendering instructions you have which direction to make each pixel of your material appear to be facing...for example the tangent space normals are all on the blue channel in order… -
Re: Building a Game - Pirate/Lost Civilization Adventure
Beware, massive post! Yeah, good point,I'll need to turn those pilars lighting to lightmaps instead of vertex. And add some sort of socle that the torch enters in. Thanks, will look at how epic made it, that's a true problem like you say, when you enter the light ray and see the plane-tru-camera thing. The only thing I… -
Re: Problem with Quads- basic modeling
Degenerates are not really a single problem, but a class of problems. A polygon can degenerate when it distorts or twists on itself. For example, imagine a quad twisting so much that it looks like a bow tie. You'll simultaneously have the front face and back face visible, which is wrong. That could be considered a… -
Re: [Zbrush] - Dynamesh to Zremesher problem
A good way for Zremesher to maintain shapes, is to create a Polygroups with SliceCurve ( it creates polygroup on slice ), or with mask brush (after u mask hit Ctrl+W to create a polygroup from masked area). So, create a polygroup right on the edge of the eyelids, like a contour on both eyes, and before you Zremesh, press… -
Re: Normal Map problem
Using SBM and meshsmooth is the way to go, turbosmooth is okay if your just previewing but as a final product it's not ideal imo < that's from personal experience though some people like it :/ ======================================================= This is my method with some instruction from Santiago Orgaz; 1. Detach all… -
Re: [Portfolio] - Amotaf - Portfolio update
people should be displaying the vertex count of an object anyway... and showing a wire-frame. Triangle count, quad count... who cares. It's the vert count that matters. But most people are going to want to see "tri-count" because most people are from the days of game dev where everything had to be triangulated. But if your… -
Re: Advice on my accomplishments
WARNING: WALL OF TEXT The school I went to was a lot like what you described. The students are taught the basics of a software and the rest is up to them. Often the only way to get real critique or learn new skills was from other students or online. Most of what I have learned is from tutorials, trial and error, and…
