Re: Mari - does anyone actually use it?
here are few things i can think of right away. i haven't tried 2.0 yet so let me know how many of these or if all of these have been addressed now. * projection painting most of the game textures i make has at least 50-80% hand painted details like lights/shadows, dirt/grime, surface wear and scratches, fabric seams,… -
Re: Mari - does anyone actually use it?
jgreasley, Now that the Foundry seems to be targeting a wider audience and wider industry appeal, one of the biggest hurdles for software like Mari is that its priced to fit in with the money blowing film industry. While a niche audience with a lot of money to blow is one thing, the moment the software branches out of that… -
Re: Mari - does anyone actually use it?
I realize that may not have been the case with the new toolkit, but in all honesty something needs to change. Because the functionality is still that of something added instead of a core tight-nit system. The features are great, I wont deny that. We don't need more features, we need a solution that gets out of the way and… -

Re: Mari - does anyone actually use it?
Hi, mmm... I am thinking about it and, actually Mari does not have many features like photoshop "styles" that you might be thinking of, such as stroke, bevel&emboss, glow, shadow (in/out...) etc... not that I know of at least. My first though is that this might be due to the fact that in film we do not want any light or… -

Feel free to ping me anytime when you want to start learning it. I'd be happy to share what I've learned so far while using it. I also know of a few good video tutorials for it.

Re: Mari - does anyone actually use it?
You should really take a look at v 2.0 then! they 've added layer support similar to photoshop as well as the ability to import psd files into your layer stack. Take a look at the foundry channel in youtube, Justin Holt did some really useful videos about the new improvements in mari v 2.0 You might also find useful to… -

Re: Mari - does anyone actually use it?
Hi, is not as difficult as it might seem, is just a matter of getting used to, I am doing some assets that have a lot of hand painting and procedural fractals lately. And mari is a breeze for both. I use auto bake on the buffer so when I move the cursor it automatically bakes what I just painted on the layer. I found out… -
Re: Mari - does anyone actually use it?
To be honest I haven't used the tow brush that much in my workflow so I can't comment on it much. usually anytime I want to repeat a detail I just set the paint buffer to manual bake and move my current painting around the model stamping it down where I need it. As for judging the software, we need people to do esactly…
