Re: Texturing: True res vs. Resizing
Exactly, and while it generally isn't a 1:1 increase in time spent, it is extra work and in most cases wasted effort. If you work at true res you'll work faster, and have a better idea of the overall end product. Lets say true res is 1024x1024, 2x2x res is 2048x2048, but most players are running the game on medium settings… -
Re: Laptop recommendations?
How do you guys feel about the Lenovo Yoga 3 Pro? Thought it was pretty cool how it could flip into a tablet if needed and the small size makes it nice for portability:… -
Re: A new modeling tool released
Hey guys, I am following a small Blender tut but using VW as a way to learn VW, in the tut the object is bent following another objects shape, is there an option like that in VW ? Also I have noticed that the programme is starting to slow down and chug a little, I have 2 objects in the scene These are the stats of the 2… -
Re: Is padding needed for curvature/AO/cavity/etc?
Well first off, the are two types of padding to consider. The first is the post process padding where the edges are extended out. This value should be really high as there is literally no draw back to having a lot of padding, when one edge hits another it stops so "too much" is not a thing. Just set it to 32-96 or… -
Re: Halo 4 Battle Rifle (WIP)
Some people LOVE them and others hate them. I suspect those people are using netbooks or phones, or have a data cap. I can definitely see how they can be worse than pictures because they are pretty large in size and only got 256 colors, but the point is that they show off the hard surface better because you can see the… -
Re: Need suggestion for portfolio
love the sky rider environment. Your textures LOOK great but seem very inefficient and are packed together weird. Instead of combining a lot of your props into a 2k texture split it up into smaller 256 or 512 textures. If you wanted to use that boat in an icy world, well now you have to draw a 2K map with useless… -
Re: Mazda hatchback video game asset
I'm not sure your texture size needs to be that big, for the amount of detail on there, looking at it I thought it was more like 256 or 512 max. Same goes for the wheels, they could fit onto a tiny map, or even occupy a little space on the larger car map. You could get a whole environment onto a 2048x2048 map, especially… -
Re: Diablo III Skeleton King
Valuemeal : I think you're right, he seems too short. people told me that he was not large enough, so I made him larger, but now he looks short ^^. He's already skinned and rigged, I'll try to change the lenght and size of the bones. For the feet and hands, I think WOW and Diablo don't have the same art style. In WOW the… -
Re: UDK Noob - Dynamic lighting problems :( Please help
The dark shadows is what it looks like when you have broken lighting. If you want hard dark shadows like that in the final build you need to change your light mass setting under world properties. Default light mass settings has 3 bounces. If you turn it off it will look like that... but it will not bounce through… -
Re: 3ds max non-uniform texure map?
![TorQue[MoD]](https://us.v-cdn.net/5021068/uploads/userpics/978/n9Y8GE4KMHMJB.jpg)
Oh, actually I managed to re-create the problem as I originally encountered it... What happens is that I scale the UVWs so that they are not stretched and fill as much of the original texture space as possible. When I render the UVW template, I set it to 512 x 1024 but since half of the space is empty, I crop the template…
