Re: Modelling a Quake 4 Engine Concept
I think you need to take a look at the way your edge flow is going around the model. Redirecting edge flow over at subd modelling might be of some help: http://www.subdivisionmodeling.com/forums/showpost.php?p=9879&postcount=10 Original thread: http://www.subdivisionmodeling.com/forums/showthread.php?t=907 Also, the edge… -
Re: My first low poly model
I think you're already at a micro poly stage...the only benefit you would have is to redistribute your optimized polys to the silhouette to make it smoother. Also, joints need support loops to bend properly. Assign a 100% black material on the mesh and check the silhouette from all angles. If you have edges within the… -
Re: Hard surface problem - cylinder
I think you can solve the problem by making the cylinder as equally dense as the rest of the mesh before punching a hole in it. You won't want to add those edges now because they won't effect the shape and round it out, they'll just be extra edges along one of the sides in a lower poly cylinder. If you start with a… -
Re: Maya Cut Faces Tool Snapping
@haikai You are right, but I guess I want the best of both worlds with the interactive mode and snapping to grid or verts. @CheeseOnToast I do use the "equal distance from edge" setting I just wish I could snap based on some sort of grid or unit. For example if I insert an edge loop on some part of a model using "equal… -
Re: Jesses Props
the weathering on these look good but alot of them lack edge work. Att the moment i see too much straigh perfect lines. And the lack of edgework can give your model a lack of definition. i did a quick paintover to show you Dont go overboard but edge highlights can help give your textures a little more form and makes it… -
Re: [Finished] Serpent Cave - Destiny Hive Inspired [Environment]
Hi! Its looking better, really nice progress!. I think your fog is way too intense, its drowning out a lot of your details here. Its hard to find the right balance but I would say keep messing around with it, you want it to add to the overall composition of your environment, right now its taking away from what I thin is… -
Re: [3DS Max] - Trouble with simple commands
Thanks to all the support received from you guys and from other forums/ discussion channels, these are the best solutions I got: 1) Connect across edges: Use the Distance Connect tool, under Modeling - Loops. However, the target vertexes need to lay between two edge loops. So, it won't work every time, but can still be… -
Re: AR-15_High_Poly
But if the edge is soft and you have to put the low poly edge on top, wouldnt there be to much spacing between the soft edge of the high and the hard literally sharp edge of the low? -
Re: Trim Sheet help required !
it makes it inconvenient but as stated above you'll get a more accurate idea of what the distortion will look like on the final asset. uv interpolation is a dumb linear operation and edge orientation can make a pretty significant difference when a quad deviates from a 1:1 aspect ratio to counter distortion, add geometry.… -
Re: TAR-21 w/ Attachments
Looks good! I think two things that could really help for your next project would be relaxing your edges a bit, and pushing your material definitions. Your edges are a bit sharp, so they're not going to catch as many nice highlights. It's a bit unintuitive, but especially for game assets, it's important to soften sharp…
