Re: do you believe in love at first sight? (mudbox)
mop & po(o)p: thanks - but... you didn't know about that? how do people deal with the blobs in Z, or the edgy corners in quick strokes in PS7+? no wonder everybody screams for this muddy box thing. my second tip would be to create your own floating UI then. saves a lot of time digging through the menu structure. hopefully… -
Texel density "standards" in UE4 ?
Hey guys, I was researching about texel density for a personal project in UE4 and I though that might be interesting and useful to open a discussion about it here and share the information I gathered so far. Hopefully through the discussion we can create a sort of reference thread/wiki page about this topic here on… -
Black/grey specs when rendering to texture
I've been trying to render out a normal map using Max for the past two days. Every time I do these black spots appear and screw up the map. I've searched polycount/google and have tried a lot of things: resetting xform for LP mesh. Not using supersampling. Using Max 2.5 start supersampling, and then trying Hammersley with… -
Re: 30 years of MAX
There's a few things in there that don't fit my memory of events. I amuses me that they've completely ignored max 5 despite that being the version in which RTT was introduced (it's okay though, anyone who used it would probably rather pretend it never happened) I'm pretty confident biped was there earlier than max 4 ( i'm… -
Re: I need help with making props pipeline
Well i use Zbrush for adding detail like damage etc to my props. It's also very good for environment stuff like bricks, tiles, walls. Also for organic things like characters and creatures. You can also make tiling 2D textures using the 2.5 canvas out of 3D sculplts, bricks for example. So you could model your large shapes… -
Re: Jobs : WTF, seriously.
I think there's a misunderstanding, nobody is saying don't mention it. Your resume says you're from Canada and you don't have a degree, either HR will toss it or say "we need this guy" and look into it. I was told EA would be able to get me into Canada despite only having about 2.5 years of experience. I had to pass for… -
Re: PC Build for environment art and engine work.
You could go with the stock cpu cooler for now and upgrade later if you think it's necessary. Spend the £50 on a bigger SSD imo. you can get this one for £90 [ame="https://www.amazon.co.uk/Samsung-2-5-inch-Basic-Solid-State/dp/B00E3W16OU/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1420856187&sr=8-3&keywords=samsung+pro+evo"]Samsung 840 EVO 1TB… -
Re: Geo Maya Hair 2
@ThunderClouds: "a yeah it's a pity that there isnt any use of this script for Games yet. But I am planning to somehow make it possible that to bake the hair onto the original polygon meshes 's texture ( diffuse, spec and normal channel ) . If everything goes well , I will do it in next version of GMH :) ." YES! This is… -
Re: Sci-Fi Blast Door
I love his approach to crevice dirtying by using AO bakes and clouds in his Hard Surface shading and Texturing. http://www.thegnomonworkshop.com/news/2009/07/hard-surface-shading-and-texturing-with-neil-blevins/ It made me want to switch to Max for it's shading system. Blender is awesome for modelling, but I find it to be… -
Re: Wacom 27QHD and Companion 2
The batt life is around 5-6 hours in Photoshop. I got like 2.5 hours in 3D Coat on the 1st gen. It's not that portable. I was a little let down by the overall size. It's portable. But I found myself sitting on the sofa or in bed at night watching tv and painting. I rarely carried it outside of my home. If you have an…
