Re: Dubstep
Glad to see a dubstep topic on Polycount! I like a lot of different styles of dubstep, but lately I have been into stuff with lots of samples and softer melodys.

Re: The Grime District
Thanks for the comments : ) And dontcha worry, I will show how the shaders work in due time, nothing special really, just an assembled bunch of tricks, kind of a natural proression from what I've tried in the scifilab, etc. They are not final yet though, and are kind of messy xD mbishof: they are just photosourced and then… -
Re: Character Artist Survey
Soul as you seem to be the main advocator here. Answer me this: Have you actually used both methods exstensively in production and weighted the pros and cons of each? Even with your example mesh in the other thread, you say how can someone make a 1024 look good if you cant make a 128 look good. Well if you take your own… -
Problem with displacement in corners on Zbrush
Hello! I'm having a problem when I do a displacement in Zbush with in objects that have a sharp corner. I put some image as example with a cube. In my situation I'm trying to do a crystal shader, so I create un maya the object, export to Zbrush, sculpt some scratchs, and create a Displacement map in Multimap exporter. My… -
Xgen expression confusion
Dear All, I have a little confusion with xgen expression editor. I saw a lot of example, and read the autodesk pages but I don't understand how is it works. I would like to color the hair by primitives, but I can not find any variable in related to the color of the primitives. I expected something like this:… -
Re: [3DS MAX] Someone explain to me how textures work
Hi! Does the combined object not have 3 materials assigned to it? Not a Max User, but I think you'd want to feed the textures into the materials used by the object through the material editor. Perhaps going through the Max documentation you figure this out (Texture, Example of using Maps). -
Re: when to use megascans as an environment artist?
There are many classifications in the area of Environment art. Ask yourself if you like 3D modeling, creating UV map textures, creating materials, etc., and then study everything you have to study. But never discard any tool based on the opinion of others. A good artist uses everything they have at their disposal, and a… -
Re: Should I practice with triangles if I want to work in games industry?
Modeling is one chapter. Quite a few polygon modeling tools in nearly all 3d modeling software requires quad topology to work. Edgeloop selection for example does not work well with tris or n-gons. So that's the thing that you need to learn first. Modeling with a useful topology. And there are plenty ways to achieve this.… -
Re: Older work and its impact on the hiring process.
... I must say you have an uncanny ability to take an example used to illustrate a concept (like here the example of modeling and UV skills) and misinterpret it as some kind of absolute statement :D *Of course* there are pipelines that don't involve manual retopo and UVs. My point is, *IF* I am looking for someone to do… -
Re: Ghibli Inspired Environment
This is looking great so far. I love the color palette. I think it's worth pushing it a bit more to get it to a really good place for your portfolio. 1. The gray-purple stucco on the walls should have some weathering near the wood beams. Without this it's looking very flat. An example from here on our wiki: 2. There is a…
