Re: Pixel Density - Art test Question
1. I would think they mean 6 1024x1024 textures, but if you're worried about it just ask them. 2. Really texture density is pretty simple, if you know you need to have 1024 per 3 meters, just model some modular chucks that are 3x3 meters large or smaller, and map your 1024 to that. or you know, 4 peices that are 1.5x1.5m… -
Mech Project: Transforming Arm - 3 weapon states.
Hey all. This thread is a new version of my previous thread since this is a new project aim now. The new aim is below. Ok. This project has changed a bit now since last time i posted. The original aim is now not complex or needed enough for it to be considered useful for a thesis. However, the new aim still uses a mech… -
Re: What is this texture called and where should it be connected in my material ?
When I import the mesh inside 3DS Max, it comes with the materials and textures linked to them that you can see in screenshot 2. For some reason, texture "M" (cf screenshot 3) does not seem to be used when the mesh is exported. Truth be told, I have no way to be sure the current textures are in their correct places in the… -

Re: How to make my model less heavy so I can unwrap for UV mapping.
1) That's what I do. I start with basemesh from 3ds Max and subdivide it in Zbrush for sculpting. Or If I start with dynamesh, I do quick retopology with Zremesher to get some subdivisions. It's much easier to work with subdivisions. 2) You make hairs with alpha planes, that's how it's done today. Mostly hand painted… -
Re: Complete workflow question, starting in Zbrush.
How you do it all really depends on your software of choice. Here is my general high-to-low work flow: 1. High poly in ZBrush 2. Retopologize in ZBrush 3. Project All, Subdivide, repeat until all details transfer. This creates a high poly with edge flow based on your low poly model 4. GoZ to Maya and Unwrap (make a cage if… -

Re: Xbox 360: Error E74
I got the E74 error just after Christmas, and 2 weeks after the 1 year warranty was up. Nice timing for the 360 to crap out. Well I can tell you it wasn't the AV cables as running either component, or HDMI resulted in the same error. It did however work after the first time I got the error. Worked for 2 minutes and the… -
Job offer question:
Hey guys, I just wanted to get some personal opinion or advice (if you would be so kind) on my current position.
