Re: OTs-38 Stetchkin silenced revolver
I actually went and checked his values and most of them are quite close to what I would expect for pbr, maybe a few % over in some cases, his wood material was like 25-29% sRGB which is 5-7% linear, so totally in line with the typical 2-8% insulators reflect in (plus its a lacquered material, so you get reflection from the… -
Re: IN PROGRESS: Quixel and Frostbite Engine
That B channel doesn't look like a metallic mask to me. Frostbite takes as input base color, metallic, AO, and a specular tweak map that can suppress Fresnel reflections below .25 linear and maps to semiconductor base reflectivity above .8 linear or so. To me it looks like R for the specular texture is metallic, G is the… -
Re: "Thumbnailing"
Ninjas, could you elaborate on how you feel thumbnailing is counterproductive to functional design? I don't thumbnail much either, ESPECIALLY on the mechanical designs I've done, but I don't see it as being mutually exclusive to function whatsoever. The knowledge it takes to draw functional thumbnails (restricting yourself… -

Re: Adobe acquires Allegorithmic makers of Substance Painter & Designer
In 25 years Adobe have killed off countless innovative programs. They are the Adesk of the 2D graphic world. It may not be for a few years, but Substance tools, as we know them, will suffer greatly. Yes, you'll hear the usual cheerful and optimistic replies from devs whose company has just sold out to a corporation: 'oh,… -
Re: 10+ Free HDRIs - 16000x8000, up to 24 EVs
Cool stuff! How many sets do you need to take with that 10mm? I'm using the Samyang 7.5mm fisheye, 6 around, 1 up, two down. I get 12x6k files out of a 16mp sensor, so probably not good enough for you if you're looking for 16x8 (though a 24MP Sony E mount body would probably do around ~16x8). I'm also curious to know how… -
Re: [UDK] Boxing Gym
The scene looks good, however I think you're missing a lot of the elements that makes the scene look "real". Just look at the reference images. No bloomy glow on the floor, No awkward point light shadows from one light source. The reference image looks "real" and your scene looks kinda like amateur CG lighting. If you look… -
Re: Looking for advice
Have you been learning things regarding game design outside of your dayjob when you get the free time? If so then it'd be good to see some stuff to see where you are at :) 23 isnt too old to move into games (I know a few amazingly talented people who didnt join the games industry until way past 25+). I think one of the… -
Re: The Chronicles of Narnia
[ QUOTE ] Santa's roots are pagan, aren't they? [/ QUOTE ] No. Santa was known as "Uncle Nick" when he would frequent a young Jesus' house. He and Joseph worked together at the steel mill and would often car-pool. Many historians believe that Uncle Nick's strong moral code was of great influence during Jesus' formative… -
Re: Need some inspiration here :(
Dude, you're 15. Enjoy being young because eventually you're gonna miss it (advice coming from a 25 year old, ugh). If you really want to be a great modeler, start by becoming a great artist. Anyone who is good at sculpture also has good drawing skills; they just go hand in hand. You've stated it yourself that you don't…
