Re: retrospective - Steffen Neox Unger - imageheavy
thank you guys :) cheeseontoast: well no and yes, i'm not using AO, because i think on characters AO mostly looks more like dirt then anything else (Ao is getting into every wrinkle, i hate that), i'm using GI baked from 2 directional skylights instead of ao, and no gradient maps. Besides that i'm using a custom made light… -
Re: flash website
[ QUOTE ] Neat effects As the pictures are sprayed across, they kind of linger too long. Do I really have to wait to click on them until they've come to a COMPLETE stop? Perhaps just make them stop faster? I also disagree with your "return" button, it's especially difficult to see in photo #1, the leaf kind of hides it.… -
Re: One Mouse to rule them all
MX518 here, as well. Beautiful mouse. The mouse wheel can get a bit iffy at times, where the physical steps don't add up with the signals the computer gets. So sometimes merely touching the wheel might end up as a scroll. But it's fairly rare that I get bothered by it, and it's much more uncommon with this than the mouse I… -
Re: Government bailouts and the Auto Industry?
I enjoy what you have to say Vig. I am in complete agreeange about electric cars are manditory now. Its no illusion and no "conspiracy theory" that oil is, and will run out. Plain and simple. We must find a new means of transportation and electric is it. Nothing else even gets close to the effectiveness and environment… -
Re: Oh god, I hate this!
I did a lot of thinking about this sort of thing when I was younger. Haven't we all? By now I know that life is lonely and disappointing at times, but am ultimately in love with being alive. Everything is so fascinating. Like... my windowsill... the shadow on the wall, an arrangement of leaves in the street outside.… -

Re: 3rd Year University Student Portfolio Advice
Thanks a lot for the great and indepth feedback. @D.Walker Ive sorted out the normal issue on the arches somewhat, some kind of artefact in the normal map, must not have set the smoothing groups on the edges to be hard when I baked. We have to create a showreel for a module but I also thought it was important that you… -
Re: Good character modelling tutorials (that isn't Zbrush-based) ?
"Known issues: I know my character isn't great, say, her arms are too thin. Whether I can fix it is down to my ability." No. It lies down to you measuring the diameter of a good reference model, and thickening yours appropriately. You can do that. Forget the myth of the artist feeling/improvising things. Observation lies… -
Re: ANIMATION, GAMING studio artists WATCH OUT.-Stephen Silver
Asking about core hours just helps you figure out where their focus might be. Staying later than the boss, just warming a chair OR focused on the final result. If everyone leaves at the same time, it makes it easier for the culture of martyrdom to exist and easier for new people to fall into the trap of staying late just… -
Re: Ok, seriously though (Biped curves?)
Honestly I think you need more experience with it before you say stuff like that...:poly121: Yes Mobo is great at clean up, re-targeting and blending, but it mostly leaves the hand keying to other applications like Max and Maya. HumanIK (motionbuilder stuffed into Maya) is finally Maya's answer to biped, after all these…
