Re: Why has there not been another Olympic style contest between forums for years now?
The decline in comps over the years IS a sad thing. However, it shouldn't come as that much of a surprise. Like others here, I'll just speculate on the reasons why. 1. To maintain any interforum comp, you actually need other sites with which to compete. The global art community just isn't filled with a lot of forums these… -
Re: SSS Shaders
For those who are interested, here is a description of my current setup. First I take my normal map into Photoshop and create two versions of it. To one I apply a Gaussian blur (8 pixels wide in my case), to the other I apply a high-pass filter (same diameter as before). This splits the normal maps into two parts, the… -
Re: Autodesk Beast (a.k.a. PLEASE be in the next UDK)
Beast looks very nice, but it's also very pricey. In addition to the cost of licensee status of UE3 (which is $325k, from what I remember), you must also purchase a license for the Beast middleware which, according the Autodesk rep I talked to, "is about $50K for the first sku then additional sku's are less. A typical 2… -
Re: want to improve wacom intuos?
I am extremely satisfied with the intuos 4. The looks, the functionality, everything (almost) is perfect about it. I personally don't use the side buttons, I just have one hand that draws and the second hand on my keyboard. Here is my short rant on a few things I would like changed: More durable nibs. I have a super old… -
Re: Can you use 2:1 uv map/texture in CE3?
well then i correct myself. I thought the preview showed the actual texture shape.. Currently im just confused about what the actual distinction between 2:1 and 1:1 is. As far as i know the UV space in max is ALWAYS 1:1, so if you "cheat" and squish your UV's in to (0.5, 1) scale, the map would still effectively be 1:1,… -
Re: Sc-fi Outpost
Definitely a good start! For architectural assets it's always good to get a good combination of - modular pieces - that make use of trim textures and other tiling materials that you apply to mesh that make up the bulk of your buildings. - unique pieces - these are those small but very detailed props/features that you would… -
Re: FlipFlop Car Paint
Alright I see this will be a bit complicated... So first of all you are changing the normal direction with that lerp before the fresnel. Normals should be in range of 0,-1 so then if you want flat normal angle, your vector 3 would be 0,0,1. I guess that constant 1 with 0.5 in the alpha of the lerp would be a blend factor… -
Re: Hardcore music scene?
Ahh, for a return of the mid-90's, early 00's scene.. Since I'm technically an old man now, most of the hardcore I listen to is stuff from back in the day. "Real" hardcore, with breakdowns, sing-a-longs, emphasis on live shows and (mostly) some form of social message ;) [ame="… -
Re: (WIP) Hand-Painted Fantasy Sword
You get lynched for bumping, you'r technically already dead :/ To fit the 1:2 or 2:1 ratio you need to first fit every thing in to one of the half of the 1:1 UV space. Lets say the lower part. When you'r done fitting everything together you mark all the UV shells and select the scale tool. Then you want to scale in just U…
