I was wondering if anyone ever experienced burn out / deep depression (losing a parent) and not doing any art for a few months... I have been trying to get back into the grove of making environments but just cant get that "Umpth" behind me. :( Any suggestions? To think everyones work here, and on the hangout have been…
I've been working on this Robot Ostrich.. It's completely Mechanical, so I used parenting to get more of a mechanical rig.. But the neck needed a skeleton so it could bend in a more organic way (skeleton is only bind to the Neck part). Now when I upload this to Unity the neck mostly disappears.Am I rigging this the wrong…
Hello, Once I change the resolution from 256x256x to 2k, the texture gets so ugly and sharp. Why is that? How do I solve the issue? 256x256: 2k: It doesn’t matter if I start with 2k parent size, or change it later. Always when the texture is high-res, the texture gets so sharp and pixelated. And it also happens with other…
Hey everyone, Thanks for your feedback. I've been pretty busy with stuff at work and home recently, but the last few weekends I was able to return to this project and make a little more progress. Here's the first pass on the gun. My main source of inspiration was the amazing gun designs from District 9. Here's some images…
Not sure I can agree with this, I wouldn't want a situation where whoever can establish a new relationship the quickest gets the kids. Following this scenario we'd have to consider that if the father has a partner already we should be saying that the mother should leave the kids with him. Also what happens when the father…
Thanks for the help guys. I tried those things and they didn't work, but I noticed when I was working how MASSIVELY HUGE the shapes were. The workspace grid was so small, it wouldn't even be a pixel in that screenshot above. I parented the whole scene to a locator, scaled it down like 2000 percent, and it looks fine. No…
Been at at my parents for Christmas, so I took my new Surface Pro to keep up with my art. Trying to do more random doodles, which the Surface is great for! My mum fell asleep on the sofa, and the dog has been miserable the whole week so I doodled them both. Below that is a Ratchet doodle from Inktober. I have a few…
+1. On the SP side, it's been mentioned a few times already in the SP thread but layers should inherit the project's ratio, so you don't have to manually change each and every layer + parented fill. And that should also include making smart materials ratio-independent. Maybe if that's still a long way off someone can come…
I've been having similar issues with Mudbox, every time I switch the type of internet connection (from LAN cable to USB wifi stick for example, when working from the parents' house during summer) it counts as a new machine, and you're only granted 3 activations. Support can reset the installs count but this crap usually…
Cool Thread. About the Weighting. Start with each strand at 100 percent per appropriate bone. Now with the lowest level bone (child) then at the bones joint blend it 40 to 50 percent into the parent of that bone. The problem you are currently having appears to be because you have your bones blended with the bones next to…
