Re: Westwood College Sued For Fraud
ugh, its shit like this that makes me glad I've never set foot inside a post secondary with all their weaslish ways. If I was a student I would rather hit up a place like gnomon or fullsail to get some good learnin' instead of those schools who market to the general public. I remember the day I told my dad that a college… -
Re: [Newbie question] What would be the best way to model this ?
Yes, your topology is going to be like this when you have areas of contrast between high-segment curves and very sparse geometry. What you have is on the right track, but you have a redundant edge loop around the border of the top of the hole. It's doing nothing as it's on a flat surface an doesn't affect the… -
PBR grass vs asphalt albedo/base color value?
Does anyone know why basically any base color/albedo gude says asphalts including old/worn ones base color should be darker than any random grass/ foliage albedo and yet I see it every day that a grass is usually darker through a day until late afternoon at least toward the sun only where we se lots of grass translucency/… -
Re: best way to show realtime assets?
dunno, i'd go for the HDRI-enhanced render if you can be bothered. that will pop next to the average model and work well for convincing a producer every time. at the end of the day you are hired as a make-stuff-look-cool-person and who knows when your knowledge of bending a renderer to your will will come in handy later… -

Re: WARNING: This may save your life!!
Simple answer, ask your GP. You can trawl the web all day and find 100 things that are at your workplace that will give you cancer, the internet is EXTREMELY unreliable when looking for medical advice and warnings. Speak to your local GP (general practicioner, or doctor) and they will give you the best advice. On a slight… -
Re: ZeniMax may seek court order to halt sales of current Oculus Rift headsets!

Re: New Member, just saying Hello
Welcome to Polycount dude. You should definitely choose a specific area you want to specialize in. Most studios won't be looking for a guy who can do environments, characters and animation (I'm sure its a bonus if you can do all three really well). But if you want to do characters, just focus on characters. Another bonus…
