Day 22 - 38 So. . . I've been forgetting to post updates (Ha ha, oops), but I've been slowly working on the sculpture. Because of the 15 bonus days I'm actually still on the free trial. I've got about 7 days left. Although, I'm starting to like Z-Brush, so maybe I'll keep it around on subscription mode afterwards. Since…
Yeah blaming the downfall of the american auto makers on the unions is so disingenuous it's ridiculous. It's a combination of the management making horrible decisions, sticking with giant gas guzzling cars when the market shifted to more fuel efficient ones, and them being caught with nothing to provide. American car maker…
Hey all. Thanks for checking out the thread! Here are some shots. Since last post I've overhauled all the materials. Rock diffuse is now generated by normal/AO/curvature maps, ground sand is now properly linked to the z-oriented sand on rocks, plants now actually use spec maps. New veg asset, and I also spent a blissful…
Very interesting read, thanks for taking the time. I've never heard about using extra meshes to bounce AO around in Xnormal, but it makes sense. I wonder if it almost seems like overkill, though - You definitely have some killer assets for your scene through the process, but I wonder how large the benefits of making so…
Sure, Carmack's way ahead in terms of real-time 3D engine tech, but we have a superior 3D web browser to id (who don't have one at all as that's not their focus). The latest id engine cannot render & interact with seamlessly integrated interactive webpages in real-time 3D environments, Infinity can. I will bang on about…
Well as someone who pops in on occasion, popcorn in hand, to read the newest pages of this of this saga-thread I will say this; Sh*t or get off the pot. While I have to commend you for your "stick-with-it" ethic, I say, finish this and move on to the next character. Iteration is your friend, especially when you're…
She blames the game company for making an "addictive" game and words her study as if they should be forced to change it. When the real issue is with the players lack of self control something Blizzard has no control over. Rather than putting the blame on the people who will read the study, she puts the blame on a "faceless…
The knight to the fire dude is from back when dominance war 3 was first starting up. He's probably the result of to many ideas trying to be crammed into one place. None of those are finished and I don't plan on finishing them. But I can always use a good critique. The fish guy I see what you mean, basically you have a…
this shit happens not because of guns, music, video games or movies... (maybe i should pre-face this with IMO and i havent read any posts since i posted last but i skimmed and it looks like it's all talk about firearms so screw it..) these people lack IDENTITY. they are messed up in the head and are looking for something…
Hey, I'm currently working on a piece that revolves more around Gameplay but from the eyes of the Champions on the Rift. It was based on a match I had when I last played Jhin (albeit different teams) the match was quite one-sided even by 25 minutes, but the other team didn't back down, which I admire and appreciate.…
