Vig - Yeah Zombies is cool, we pick a game each week to play - magic/hecatomb/pirates/zombies/mechwarrior etc. So, I married Mrs Voorhees - here's my boy: and his sister as a goth/vampire/bat/skeleton/"I-couldn't-make-my-mind-up" thing..
@gnoop I've just started testing Arnold myself - using MR then Vray then Corona for years - my main reason being the new SSS randomwalk 2 skin shader. Have you tested the Octane Skin shader and what DCC are you running it on? Also, how is Octane's Displacement?
Thanks for the comments, everyone! Well I think it's about time to start uploading stuff! I've been too much time in the shadows, got a truck of stuff to share >.< This is Spanky, the Daggerfish for Slark that I made along with Mr. BrontoThunder. Was superfun! http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=153299683
Yeah I would agree with everything @Mr Significant said @Zerogun . The spec map is really flat and not much variation at all. That's where you want to have details standing out a lot more. Look up how to make and use gloss maps too they are really important as well.
@mr gelmir I'm going to give my own water shader a go soon so hopefully I can fix it! Thank you :) @iniside Thanks so much for the help :) That clears things up! @dudealan2001 Thanks it's really nice to know that people can see some improvement!
You enable the Mental Ray plugin in the plugin manager and then that menu option should be there. If you're running Maya 2016 you need to download the Mental Ray plugin. Keep in mind that there are different MR plugins for different service pack versions of Maya, make sure you get the right one.
I had no Idea there were so many AIP grads on PC..course I graduated in 96...Did any of you guys have Mr Zehnr(sp?) or that hippy Fran......Catizone was a good animation teacher...Pitt is a great town...I still crave Primanti Brothers Sandwiches
Fred never starts contests on time because he's a tease, a dirty dirty tease. But he likes to make you wait, because obviously it makes you need it more. :P So yeah, I'm in with (probably) Mr. Funky Bunnies again this year and a 3rd mystery guest TBD.
Beautiful model mr. Smo and immaculately done. That is looking gorgeous MoP. Nice colour scheme too. Hah nice one Dave. Get 'em started early eh?! My mate has his 8 yr old doing some fairly serious stuff in Maya. Scary.
Damn, never knew him as a comedian I do remember seeing him in Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure and loved his performance. That makes me feel sad, especially after seeing the you tube link here, he was a really funny guy, rest in peace Mr. Carlin.
