Re: LoDs: From how many tris does it make sense?
dpadam450, 1[-L-]****** 2[-L-] 3[-L-] and take the same time to render if we apply the logics form the NVIDIA slide from GDC that we all agree is correct. And that is what we're talking about. Also I'm pretty sure, that this kind of logic is incorrect and that there's no such linear relation between the number of polys and… -
Re: Marmoset Toolbag 2 | FAQ & Support
I'm seeing some slight weirdness here, where sometimes the color is off, but the margin of error seems to be one digital (eg, red: 89 instead of red: 90). Oddly, its not always the same value if you capture multiple times. I asked about this and it seems to be a precision issue, we store the values with much higher range… -
Re: Successful/appealing characters
A successful character is dependent on how you want the player to relate to their avatar and what traits they will anthropomorphize into it. Is the game story driven with a linear plot? Then you need a fully developed character with believable traits and motives. If the player is meant to craft their own story through game… -
Re: Assasin's Creed art preview
I think the story will be worth the play. As it stands, I don't think your really some guy whacking folks during that time period. There are some really weird "memory" things happening on screen during the gameplay. I also noticed some pretty strange visual things happen around some of the characters on screen, almost like… -
Re: Grand Theft Auto IV Chat
And that right there is what makes GTA so damn good. So many mini-games that are basically full fledged games in their own right. These things can keep you occupied for hours, let alone the actual storyline. Although the story is linear, the game still packs a lot of replay value, as things can change the outcome so… -
Re: Call of Duty 4.... wow
Hah OK, so after moaning about the demo I succumbed and picked up the pc version today. I'm surprised people haven't raved about the visuals more. Really, it's actually amazing in places. Shit man, that SAS level on the boat at the beginning? The animation, the lighting, all incredibly impressive. The way your squad move… -
Re: Adobe Photoshop feedback
Crap, did I miss the deadline? If we're thinking about radical new paradigm: I'd like the ability to build non-linear layer systems. It doesn't mean we need to change the basic behavior, but the ability to switch to an 'advanced mode' or something similar. I'm tired of copying masks over diffuse, specular etc, when one… -
Re: UE3 Material Issues
[ QUOTE ] as far as i know, that is just the way unrealed is out of the box. 8-bit alphas can't have lighting, so if you want it lit...you'll have to go back to 1-bit alpha. but a solution would be nice! [/ QUOTE ] Lit translucency is supported in one of the versions of UE3 I just can't remember if that's a released… -
Re: Need help with Character Workflow
The helmet model changes its shape because the smoothing algorithm in zbrush (and any other 3d App) tries to change a linear shape into a curve by adding one or more edges between two edges. To keep hard edges you have to add extra edges parallel near to the original edge. A good tutorial which explains this principle of… -
Thai Chi Feedback
Hello world. I'm finally getting around to posting personal work after lurking for a while. This is a piece I've just taken from stepped to linear. I love watching martial arts forms so I wanted to do my own version. It's been a challenge to modifying the timing to spice it up without loosing what makes it so pretty.…
