Re: Dom. War results!
While I liked Mr Kite's character more than Rockstar's, the excecution and detail of the latter (aside from also being an extremely cool character) would have made it my top pick as well. Without a doubt the most impressive piece of gameart I've ever seen. But overall an awesome effort from all, it's the best contest we've… -
Re: Blending Hi-poly Normal Maps with 2D Normal Maps
Ahh, cool tip Whargoul. That sounds like the perfect method. Also, in Max7, if you apply a bump-map to the highpoly mesh (procedural textures work well), then render that down to a low-poly model's normal-map, it includes the bump information in the normal render, which is nice. Then again, if what Mr Makowka says is true,… -
Re: Best 3dsmax realtime shader atm?
Yeah I was thinking more .fx and DirectX shaders, but i get the feeling that not many have been written yet. I really like Mr. Cloward's shader, but sometimes the lighting seems off. May just be the way I set up my lights. Other than that, it's perfect for normal map work. MoP- How do you affect opacity? -
Re: Game Wizards WIP - DeadSkins, Grim Fate, Bullet Hell

Re: Kevin Bryant 3d Modeling Thread.
Thanks guys for the comments. anyway, Here is a LR-300 Assault Rifle weapon I made. I mostly made this one out of practice. I don't really know if I want to use it for anything, just cuz there already so many M4like weapon models out there. MR Render. By gridlockshock at 2012-04-20 Viewport Shots. By gridlockshock at… -
Re: Character Modeler Portfolio/Website (Please Critique!)
You have some great stuff here, and I really like the portfolio. The horizontal layout works great for a limited number of images. My only concern like Mr. Hobo had said was the poly distribution on the warrior, 90K is pretty huge - not absolutely out of the stratosphere, but not optimized either. Also his specular is a… -
Re: CryEngine moves to a subscription based model.
Also sorry for the double post, but a couple of people including me at CryDev decided to take a stance and make our final voice-outs heard in a civil and creative way. We are making a " Letter of Cry" or "CryLetter" direced to Mr Cevat Yerli. Here are the details, if you want to check out:… -
Re: Ambient Occlussion Bake Failure.
Yea I've stopped using MR to bake normal maps, its way too slow and buggy. The one thing it does that other rendering engines don't, is bake AO but then you have to deal with quirks like having to hide the Low Poly mesh, but then it fudges up the padding so you're still screwed.... YEAH MENTAL RAY! (I hate you so much) -
Re: You Favorite Art Style?
If we are talking about fine artists then, super realism is my thing. like Mr. David Kassan here If we are talking about concept art, then EVERYTHING...but Barontieri is my fav Also though, I am completley obsessed with traditional tattoo art, having almost finished my sleeve. Sarah Schor is awesome but thats only if you… -
Re: The Bi-Weekly Substance Challenge (Challenge 3 & 4)
@Mr Significant I'll be showing off the graph at some point or maybe doing a breakdown but most of it is just changed parameters from my twitch stream. https://www.twitch.tv/3dkyle/videos/all Take in mind that I never did stream the end of how I did this, my internet has been slow so I'm not going to be streaming as much…
